FELL INTO THE HOLD.
Sudden Death of a sailor of the British
Ship Hiddekel.

Sudden Death of a Sailor of the British
Ship Hiddekel.
Thomas Radcliffe, sailor on the British
ship Hiddekel, lying at Beale-street wharf,
was almost instantly killed yesterday
afternoon by falling into the hold OF the
vessel.
Radcliffe had been warned not to go into
the hold by the ladder while the buckets
discharging coal from the ship were in
use, but he paid little attention to the
commands. He was going down the
ladder yesterday to clean the hold when a
bucket that was being lowered struck him
on the head, hurting him to the tim bers
below.
He was taken to the Receiving Hospital
as quickly as possible, but died on the
way. The body was removed to the
Morgue and an inquest will be held to-day.

CROWDS AT CARSON DEPOT.
Watchers for Dan Stuart DO Not Cease
Their Ti1il.

Their Tigii.
CARSON, New, Feb. 10.-The same old
crowd OF sports and curiosity kers was
at the depot this morning looking for
Stuart. The camera artists were also on
deck focusing at the gathering from the
roof of Muller & Spindler's candy factory.
A lot of people who had sporty look and
wore sweaters stepped from the train, but
none of them was Stuart. Later, when it
was learned that Stuart was in San Fran
cisco and not in Reno, there was peace in
camp.
Nothing definite has been arrived at re-
garding the training quarters OF either
fighter. The Hot Springs people thought
that giving up so many rooms to the
fighters and trainers would discommode q
some of the regular customers who are In
valids at the health resort, and there was
no place to build the handball court. AID.
plication was next made to the Holstein
ranch, owned by Sam Davis. There was
room for ten people, but only in case the
family would move out, and no decision
was reached.
