STEAMER j. d. PETERS.
The Vessel Sunk by Col1iding With
the Czarina Arrives at Stockton.

STOCKTON, Nov 1.-THE California
Navigation and Improvement Com
pany's steamer J. d. Peters, which was
sunk in San Francisco Bay by collid-
ing with the steam collier Czarina of
the Spreckels Company on the evening
of Wednesday, November I'd was
towed to the ship yards in this city
this morning, reaching its destination
about $50 o'clock. The steamer A. d.
F'reese, also of the California Naviga-
ton and Improvement Company. had
the wrecked vessel in tow
The trip to this city was begun
about o'clock yesterday morning.
The Freese could have brought the
Peters clear through and reached this
city last evening, but it was thought
best to go through the Narrows in the
daytime. On the way up about
foot of water leaked in through the
hull, which was severely strained by
being hauled up on the mud flats in
Richardson's Bay The pumps were
put to work when the stop was made
last evening, and the water removed.
AS the steamer was being tied up at
the ship yards several camera fiends
took snap shots at the bow of the
wrecked vessel.
The electrical appliances are consid-
erably damaged. Freight is being re-
moved, preparatory to putting the YES
sci on the ways for repairs.

AS far as can be ascertained, about

Latest iadvices from Bankok state
that the Siamese Government is in
much CONSERVATION over the sudden
departure of the French Minister from
Bankok, and there are fears that
crisis is likely to develop as soon as he
returns. The reason for the Minister'S
departure is that he demanded from the
Siamese Government the cession Of cer-
tain land on Bankok River and the re-
lease of several Annamiles and Tong
kines from prison. This demand was
natly refused by the Siamese Govern
ment, much to the Indignation of the
French Minister. He thereupon left
Bankok on the pretext of accompanying
his wife home in consequence of illness.
According to late Oriental advices,
there is trouble brewing between China
ana Thibet. A YachoW dispatch says:
The Prefect of Yachow has arrived
from Thibet. whittier he was sent to
settle up troubles following upon the
Chang Tunglins' raid into Chantui and
Derge last year. The whole raided dis
tr1ct has been given over to L'Hassa
and Lama rule, retrocession of an
nexed territory on the part of China
that is as little comprehensive as the
'abd1cation' of the Russians in Corea.
Ihere are those who say that China is
apprehensive of the growing independ-
ence of the Lamas, and as the treaty
between England and Thibet expires
this year she is afraid the Lamas may
open road for the British from Dari-
ceiling to PHassa."

TAKEN FOR SECRETARY LONG.
Two Bronze Pieces Which Were at
Port Cayo del Toro, Cuba.

SANTIAGO, Nov. 11.-Colonel Ray,
the American commander at Guantan-
amo, reports, that from that place he
heard that the United States Govern
ment ship Glacier had landed a num-
ber OF men at the port of Cayo del
Toro. and had taken possession of two
Of the finest pieces of bronze cannon
there. It was added that the men on
the Glacier have also accidentally
blown up the arsenal.
Colonel Ray went to Caimanera in
order to investigate. There he saw
Captain Norman and the officers Of the
ship, who positively denied knowing
anything regarding the cannon. Col
onel Ray, however, said he had OBJ
tanned his information from reliable
source, the British Consul being his
informant, whereupon Captain Norman
admitted taking the guns, and said he
took them for the Secretary of the
Navy. The Captain refused to furnish
any further information, and conse-
Quently it is not known whether he
acted under orders from the Secretary
of the Navy, or is merely making the
Secretary private present.
Three similar guns have been asked
ments for Annapolis, and the War Of
fee granted the permission necessary.
Captain Chester of the Cincinnati will
ship them north at the first oppor-
tunity.
Colonel Ray was at first inclined to
demand the return of the guns from
the Glacier, but he decided to await
instructions on the matter.
A<Corporal of the Third Immune
Regiment at Guantanamo, who was de-
tailed to assist in the free ration dis
tribution, has been discovered, in CO.
operation with some merchants of the
town, to have been swindling the Gov
ernment. Large supplies of bacon and
meat were found to have disappeared,
and caused Colonel Ray to investigate
the matter He discovered big short
age, the money value being over $1,000
and traced the affair to the Corporal
and three merchants who were acting
with him. They are all under arrest.

The Jury Returns Verdict of
MansIaughter.

SAM JOSE, Nov 17-After being out
since noon yesterday, the jury returned
a verdict against John Matthews this
afternoon of manslaughter, but recon-
mending him to the mercy of the court
Matthews was a Constable. June
2Sth last, about 10 o'clock at night, he
was in a roadhouse drinking. It was
reported to him that some one had
stolen his whip and coat from his
buggy. He dashed out and drove in
the direction the culprit was said to
have gone. The first man he met was
Henry Hopken of Monterey County.
Matthews says that when he tried to
arrest him Hopken ran, so he fired.
Hopken fell dead with a bullet through
his brain
On the stand Matthews testified that
he only shot to scare him, and more
over that he was looking for a burg
lar who had robbed a henhouse in the
neighborhood, and that the defendant
answered the description. 1t was
shown that Hopken was an entirely
innocent stranger here

WASHINGTON, Nov 17-James W.
Tolbert has received Governor Eller-

whether the Governor would afford him
protection from mob violence In return
ing to his home at Mccormick, S. c..
The Governors reply, which is sub

practical admission that the Governor
cannot afford him protection, and there
to it is said that it is not likely that
he will jeopardize his life by returning
to his home in the present state of ex-
cited feeling.
Up to this time no definite plans
with respect to the prosecution of the
participants in the riotous proceedings
against j. w. Tolbert have been de-
cided upon. The fact that Tolbert is
