POINT ARENA, Cal, Oct. 23.-Thir-
teen seamen, comprising almost the
entire crew of the steam schooner
Casper were drowned early this morn
ing by the wreck of the vessel. The
rocky shore in this vicinity was strewn
with wreckage today, but there was
no way of identifying the ship until
this evening, when two men from the
shore, who had gone out in small
boat to rescue any of the crew who
might be still alive, picked up Capt.
An1ndsen and Seaman Christ Larsen,
who had been floating about on an
impromptu raft for over fourteen
hours. To his rescuers, Adolph Peter
son and Henry Anderson, the captain
of the wrecked vessel said that the
Casper struck on reef at 1890 this
morning and seven minutes later cap
sized When she tipped over, all the
members of the crew were washed
overheard She carried fifteen men,
but, from the moment the accident
occurred, the captain had seen none
of the crew except his companion, Lar
sen, and has no doubt that the other
thirteen have all been drowned. When
thrown into the water, Anfindsen and
Larsen, by good fortune. were able
to raft some pieces of floating tim
bers. They succeeded in drawing the
boards together and clung to this i'm
provised raft from the time of the
accident until late this afternoon, while
the storm beat about them, the whole
being exposed to the most furious gale
of the season. They had almost sue
cumbed from. cold, exposure and ex-
haustion, and were with difficulty

lieves Van Wyck will win because
Greater New York is normally Demo-
cratic by large majority; because the
public has wearied Of what some style
alleged reforms" because the Raines
law is unpopular; because the tax rate
has been increased; because of divl-
sions in the Republican ranks, and be-
cause, as alleged; Georges strength
has been abSurdly exaggerated.
The straight Republicans say that
the normal Democratic. majority is
only about $4,000 in the four counties
of New York, Kings, Queens and Rich
mond, and George will get at least
O.000-probably G0,030-xotes, whica
will come almost entirely from the
Tammany forces, while Lows vote
will be much less than is claimed, and
of its total fully half will come from
Democrats who fear Tammany's as
cendancy, but do not want George:
Much is also hoped for from the sup
port of Democrats who fear the effect
that Van Wyck's or Georges election
would have on the. currency issue in
national politics.
Lows supporters profess confidence
bacause of reported OBJECTIONS, in Tam

because of the record, personal and

The George men base their. hopes on
the showing of their candidate in 1886,
on the support Of the BRYAN forces and
on the discomfort with Tammany
methods.
A sensation was created in political
and Roman Catholic circles by the an
nouncement that Father McGlynn had
made his final peace Sith Archbishop
Corrigan and is to raurn to an i'm
portant parish in this city. It was be-
cause of alleged INSTRUMENTATION re-
garding his connection with Henry
George that Father Glynn- was un-
frocked ten years ago. Since his re-

hood Father McGlynn has had a

GEORGE THE SPECTACULAR STIR.

in Greater New York.

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-Henry
Georges canvass continues to be the
spectacular feature of the most re
has ever witnessed. His army of
speakers hold hundreds of meetings in
all parts of New York every night but
Mr. George himself is the most effec-
tive advocate of his cause, preaching
the crusade against poverty with the
zeal of Peter the Hermit; declaring
himself an instrument in the hands of
God to better the condition of his fell
low men, and firing his hearers with
an ardor that makes them in turn
apostles of his radical doctrines. In
every borough of Greater New York,
in halls, in the streets, on the wharves,
Henry George speaks to multitudes
that cheer his every word.
For the past few nights Mr.. George
has been making savage attacks on
Richard Croker the leader of Tam
many hall Among the labor unionists
and in the swarming tenement districts,
where people are crowded more thick
ly than anywhere else on earth, Mr..

stump again, except Father McGlynn,
and he has declared himself in sym
pathy with the movement
Each days developments accentuate
the fact that in the municipal cam

more and more into the relation of

whether the charges are true or not.
NEWS TO SECRETARY HART.
Secretary Hart, of the state board
of corrections and charities, which has
general review of the affairs of all the
state institutions of correctional or
charitable nature, said yesterday that
he had read the G o bse's publication
of the charges made against Deputy
Warden Lemon, but had no idea
whether or not the board would pursue
the matter any further. 1t was the
first he had ever heard of the assaults
on either Heen or Hahn, although it
was not the first time that complaint
had been made about the conduct of
affairs by Deputy Warden Lemon. In
fact, the state board had pursued the
investigation ordered by the legislature
of 1891 into some of his acts very thor
oughly. Mr. Hart was 10th to talk
about the sensational exposure of yes
terday morning in the G 0 be.
WoLFER WOULDN'T DISCUSS IT.
Warden Wolfer, when seen at the
prison yesterday, said that he had
nothing to say, inasmuch as he was
gong TO ask the D0dFu Ol PRISON man
ayers for an immediate Investigation
of all charges.
"You see," he said to the G 10
correspondent, 81 am in no position
to discuss this matter charges of Sc
we're cruelty having beer made against
officers connected with this institution
1 want an investigation into every de-
tail of the charges, 50 that the pubic
may determine whether or not they are
true. and in the meantime, 1 ask the
public not to form any conclusions as
to the truth or faIsity of the several
charges I think it would be unwise
for me to enter into discussion Of
these grave charges, but after the in
vestigation is m1de, Ismay have some
thing to say. All ! ask is justice, and
so far as 1 am concerned'I want moth
ing more"
All efforts to secure from him any
information concerning, the charges
proved utterly unavaiing. and in con-
clusion he said
Were it. not for the fact that these
charges reflect very strongly upon my
administration as warden, l would

fishes with reserve the announcement
that the reply of the Spanish govern
ment to the United States, presented
to Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, the
American minister at Madrid, declares
that, if the United States does not
stop the sailing of filibustering expe-
ditions from American ports Spain
will re-establish the right to search
vessels anchoring in Cuban waters.
The most interesting event at the
White house today was the visit Of
Senator Thomas c. Piatt, of New York.
The hot campaign over the city cleo
ton in New York, in which the senator
has taken such a prominent part, made
the visit of the senator significant.
Senator Platt wanted to secure some
appointments and was desirious they
should be made before the election.
The senator said he was here on some
little errands and when asked how he
could be spared at this time from New

thusiasm among his friends, and as ne

this move, it is held by the friends of
the latter, cannot fail to have an in
fluence on the election.
1t Will be remembered that when 'the
priest was depOsed from st. Stephens
church and disciplined for agitatinG
for Henry George, against the explicit
orders of the archbishop, he was after
ward restored to priesthood through
the good Offices of Mgr. Satolli, the
only condition imposed being that
henceforth he should be an obedient
priest.
An immense crowd gathered into and
Overflow from Colts hall on Abing-
don square. on the lower West side. to-
night, to hear Mr.. George and Charles
w Dayton Mr.. Dayton arrived first.
He was wildly greeted, and every sem
tence he uttered brought out great
cheering His speech was about the
same as others he has delivered, plea
for the plain people and the destruc-
ton of 'bossism." Dayton was just fin
ishing when cheers far down the street
heralded the coming of George. Every
one in the hall turnsd about and watch
ed the door When the jostling- in the
crowd near the door told the audience
that the popular idol was near at
hand, there was loud cheer, but when
the smiling face Of the candidate ap-
peared the audience seemed to go sud
denly mad. Men shrieked and roared
They did not cheer Some grasped
their nearest neighbors by the hand
and they yelled in unision. George
tried several times to quiet them. Each
time he raised his hand the tumult
started anew But order was restored
and the candidate made his speech.
Seth Low spoke in the vaudeville
hall of the Harlem Opera house to-
night It was completely filed with an
audience composed for the larger part
of women and children. They were en-
thusiastic, however. Mayor Strong
made short speech. He said the re-
cent police promotions were. the first
in the history of New York that the
men did not have to pay for. Seth Low
arrived while the mayor was speak
ing. He was loudly cheered, and as
he shook hands with Mr.. Strong on the
platform there was much cheering. He
said his candidacy was a protest
against either bossism in Washington
or the kind which has it's headquarters
at the English race track. Seth Low
also addressed largely attended
meeting in the Central Opera house.

gladly say more, but I want the charg-
es investigated by competent authority
and until then 1 will refrain from en-
tering into a discussion of the merits
of the charges
1t is expected that Mr.. Wolfer will
ask the board Of managers for an In
vestigation at it's next meeting, and
there is little question but that the
board will accede to his request.
NORRISH SAYS LITTLE.
A special from the G o e's corre-
spondent at Hastings says: Regarding
charges of cruelty to convicts at stats
prison at Saltwater Gen. J. F. Norrish
was asked:
do the board of managers know of
any inhuman treatment of any of the
convicts at the state prison at Still
Water?"
Certainly not" was his reply.
Neither would it be tolerated. This is
all I have to say
OBRIEN AWAY FROM HOME.
saltwater special says: Hon. j. s.
OBrien, of this city, who is a member
of the board of prison managers, was
not in the city and could not be seen
in reference to the G o b es article.
Mr.. O'Brien is in Chicago and will not
be home for several days"
HALL ALSO AWAY.
A Duluth special says that M. ..
Hall, also member of the board of
prison managers, is out of the city.
THAT OTHER INVESTIGATION.
A great deal of light is thrown on
the past career of Lemon by the testi-
mony in the investigation of 1891. This
was started under a concurrent reso-
luton of the legislature directing the
board of prison managers to remove
Deputy Warden Lemon and Assistant
Glennon from their positions. The af-
fair had been first investigated by the
house committee, which paid special
attention to the effort of three con-
victs named Douglas, Anderson and
Davis to escape. In its report this
committee says:
Douglas ran toward the river and hid under
a building, where he was scovered in few
minutes. He was ordered to crme cut from
under the building, ane refusing to do so,

shot to intimidate him Lemon claims he

saved by their rescuers. The sea has
been so high all day that it has been
impossible to launch a boat from shore,
and even this evening the two men
who went out and accomplished the
rescue risked their lives in the break
ers. Late in the evening the steamer
Alcazar cruised about the scene Of
the wreck, but could find no tr;S,e of
any of the other seamen. The scene
of the disaster is very dangerous
locality for shipping, and, when yes
sci is once thrown on the rocks, she is
doomed, and there is little chance for
the escape of her crew. The Casper
sailed from San Francisco for Usal,
where she was to load lumber for San
Francisco. She was owned by the
Casper Lumber company, and regis

A Possible Hitch In the Union Pa

OMAHA, Neb., Oct 23.-Gen. John c.
Ccwen, special counsel for the United
States in the Union Pacific foreclosure
suit, this evening, admitted that there
was more than probability that the
sale would be postponed. but would not
make positive statement to that
effect. He said he would start fer ST.
Paul Sunday night to consult with
Judge Sanborn and Special Master
Cornish on Monday. The outcome Of
that consultation, it is expected, Will
be an order, postponing the sale of the
road under foreclosure, which is now
advertised for Tuesday, Nov. 1. The
deposit of 10 per cent of the agreed up
set price was to have been made to-
day, but had not been made UP to the
hour the banks closed.
