A we'll known professor is noted for

SEATTLE, March GA Nanaimo,

cer' says:
The steamer Barbara BoscowitZ ar
rived from Northern ports this morn
ing with eighteen of the passengers
and crew of the steamer Willapa which
sailed from Seattle for Dyea March
10th, but ran aground and became a
total wreck on Regatta Reef, seven
miles north of Bella Bella, opposite the
lower end of Queen Charlotte Islands,
last Friday morning during a binding
snowstorrl and heavy gale. The pas
sengers staid on board several hours,
until it was found that the tide was
rising as fast in the hold as outside
and the pumps had no effect. The
women were taken then in the boats
to Campbell Island, a distance of two
miles, and afterward the men, the dogs
and baggage. A camp was formed
and the sixty or more passengers were
made as comfortable as possible in
deserted shacks on shore.
The BoscowitZ reached the wreck on
her way south Sunday afternoon and
brought all the passengers and food
to Bella Bella.
The Boscowitz also reports that the
steamer Dora, which left here before
the Willapa, went on the rocks on
Green Island. near Port Simpson, last
week, but got off again in a few hours
and was run on the beach. The pas

COMMITTEE VACANCIES.
Subject of Discussion i'm Executive
Session of the Senate.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-The Sen
ate spent considerable time in eXecu-
tive session to-day in consideration of
the status of the committees in which
vacancies existed.
The discussion arose over point of
order made by Senator Allen against
a report which the Postoffie Committee
attempted to made favorable to the
tow as Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General. Attention was called in this
connection to the fact that the Post
office Committee was entirely without
Democratic representation. This point
brought out a statement of the posi-
ton of the varies parties in the Sem
ate.
The Republicans contended for ma
jority representation, if they were to
continue to be held responsible for the
conduct of the committees, while the
Democrats held out for the privilege of
filling the vacancies caused by the re-
tirement of Democratic Senators.
Senator Cannon stated the position Of
the silver Republicans to be favorable
to a coalition of all the silver sup
porters in the Senate for the organiza-
ton of the body on silver basis, but
he said they did not desire to make this
attempt until after the passage of the
tariff bill, because of differences on that
question.
The subject was dropped without ac-
ton to take up the arbitration treaty
but the steering committee took it up
again after adjournment, with the hope
of reaching an adjustment
All parties realize that the present
crippled condition of the committee is
liable to work much inconvenience, if

REMOVAL OF POSTMASTERS.
General Heath Announces Another
Factor i'm the Departments Policy.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Another
factor in the policy Of the Postoffice
Department was announced to-day by
First Assistant Postmaster-Gen
Heath. 1t is said offensive partisanship
will not be considered Drovocation for
removal, unless such action is shown to
have been detrimental to the admins
tration of the postal service.
Fully a half dozen of such charges
were made to Assistant Postmaster
General Heath to-day, including the of
fees at Hastings, Neb., where Senator
Thurston made complaint, and at Ash
land, III. Every case, however, lacked
the essential requirement of specifica-
ton of damage to the service. This
policy, when announced by Colonel
Heath, created some surprise among
those who had pushed their charges.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 26.-Tmere
were two races for professionals to-
nightat the indoor bicycle tournament
and as a result the races were of the
top-notch order. Nothing like them has
been seen in this country, so the East
ern riders say, and nothing goes to
prove the fact more than the fact that
JAY Eaton, who has the reputation OF
being the Indoor king" has met with
defeat time and time again. A new
king is now wearing the golden crown,
and he is Charley Wells, the crack OF
California, who is regaining his form of
a year age, after long illness.
Wells won the mile invitation race
for professionals tonight with compar-
ative ease, defeating such men as Jay
Eaton of Chicago, w. A. Terrill and
Floyd A. Mcfarland, the only qualified
riders in the final Of the race.
The race was a sprint from start to
the finish. Eaton caught the pacemaker
OIorris of Texas and the others lined
up as fellows: Mcfarland, Wells and
Terrill. Morris set a fast pace for five
and a half laps, when he withdrew in
response to the starters whistle. A
pretty play for position followed, with
Eaton in front and setting a rafting
pace and Wells in the rear looking the
ground over just before the bell tap.
Wells commenced to unwind his cele-
brated sprint, and soon passed Nc
Farland and TerTill. On the last turn
Terrill jumped away from Mcfarland,
but could not overtake the indoor king,
who is riding in better form than any
other rider in the tournament, and the
entry list is the best that ever gathered
at an indoor meeting in this country.
The time was 2:0S 1-5. Wells is GER
tainly riding 100 per cent. better than
he has for a year back.
The consolation race was won by
Walter Foster, Boyden second and Sui
1ivan third. Time-2:11 As.
