SLOOP WRECKED AND
NINE PERSONS PERISH
w. E. Bondy of Berkeley Brings Sad
News From Sunrise City, on
Cooks Inlet.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 22,-W. e.
Bondy of Berkeley Cal, who has just
returned from Sunrise City on Cooks In
let, tells a story of the wreck of a sloop
about four weeks ago in which it is prob
able that nine persons lost their lives.
Bandy could learn the names of only two.
They were Frank Robinson of Santa
Cruz, Cal, and Chris Johnson Of Cooks
Inlet. johnson was the owner of the
sloop.
About September % Robinson and
Johnson sailed to Kiniak Arm. where
they took aboard a party of seven pros
pectors bound for Sunrise. Kiniak Arm
is about twenty miles north of Turn
again Arm. After leaving Kiniak Arm
the party was never heard of again. A
man who saw the sloop take on the party
told Bondy that the sloop was loaded
down within six inches of the water. A
few days later Johnson's dog appeared at
Sunrise half dead with exhaustion. At
terward a part of the sloop and other
wreckage was picked up at Turnagain
Arm.

ported to Superintendent Pritchett OF
the Coast and Geodetic Survey by John

due to is not known. There is posi-

LORD ROSEBERY'S
SIGNIFICANT UTTERANCES

PERTH, Scotland, Oct. 22-Lord
Rosebery, the Liberal leader and for
mer Premier. in receiving the freedom
of the city of Perth to-day, referred in
the most cordial terms to the good I'M
derstanding between Great Britain and
our kinsmen in the United States"
Continuing. the speaker said he be-
lieved the whole history Of the Ill
feeling which existed was a misunder-
standing. Since 1919, by the madness
Of one Government and the want of
wisdom of another, Great Britain had
waged two wars against the United
States, in neither of which were we
conspicuously successful But through
out my life have never been cognizant
of an unfriendly feeling in this country
toward the United States
ION the other hand, the Americans,
in whose territory the wars were
fought, and with whom the recollection
was most painful have always had a
sense of abiding soreness. But l am
glad to say that after more than q cen
fury of misunderstanding the United
States has discovered that we are not
enemies but friends. (Cheers.) 1
could not but believe that when they
realized the position they would see
that there was great future before the
two great nations going hand in hand
and that it was their duty, function
and destiny to perform a great ser
vice. not actually in behalf Of other
nations, but in behalf of humanity and
civilization"
Lord Rosebery then referred at
length to the FashOda question, his re-
marks having the same tenor as his
previous utterances on the same sub
iect. He said: IF 1 were a British
Minister now no man should rob me of
one shred or jot of the honor to which
the great work of civilization, culmin-
ating at Omdurman, entitled Great
Britain and Egypt. If the Government
does not feel strong enough to bear the
weight of it's 1aurels 1 am willing to
take any share it may hand over
to me-"

EVIDENCE is AGAINST THEM
YOUNG AMERICAN BELIEVED
TO BE IMPLICATED.
City Marshal Confident Rimero Is
One of the Culprits-Public
Excitement Shows No
Abatement.
Special Dispatch to Tho Call.

WATSONVILLE, Cal, Oct. 22.-The
rearrest of Fred Carnes and Jose RI
nero, suspected of the attempted alb
duction of Edna Osborn, the 12-year-
old daughter of Postmaster Osborn, has
caused considerable excitement in this
city, and If the evidence against them
were more conclusive the officers OF the
law might not be required to mete out
their deserved punishment.
The blunder made by the constable
In discharging the men nearly caused
the father of the girl to take the law
into his own hands, but he was salts
fed when told the men would be again
apprehended and tried.
City Marshal Bridgewater is confident
that Rimero is one of the men wanted,
and if he is shown to be the culpr1t
Carnes may have a hard time to clear
his own skirts. Both men were seen
in the neighborhood of the Osborn res
idence for two nights previous to the
crime and also on the night Of its COM
mission. The finding of the time-tag
and lock of hair of the girl in the stolen
buggy, and the fact that the tracks of
the buggy led to a curb in front Of the
house where one Of the men resided,
are the main points of evidence against
them thus far, but the officers are
working on a clew which may bring to
light the required evidence.
1t is believed that a young American
of dissolute habits was implicated in
the attempt to carry off the girl, and If
he can be located in time it is thought
the true facts can be had from him. It
transpires that the abductOr did not
wear rubber shoes, but that upon en-
tering the child's room he drew her
stockings on over his shoes in order to
move about noiselessly. That part of
her footwear has disappeared and has
not yet been found.
Marshal Bridgewater, who arrested
the men, says they are hard citizens
He believes them guilty, and hopes to
have sufficient evidence to hold them
at their examination on Monday next
Il am satisfied" said he that chic
reform was used on the girl, but she is
big and strong and they did not give
her enough. She revived, and her abil-
ity to scream Is, I believe, all that saved
the State from another Durrant hor-
ror. They had but one motive, and she
would never have been brought home
alive. The fact that they had hitched
a horse to the buggy showed that they
proposed to carry her away to a place
where their purpose could be accom-
plished. There was some talk of lynch
ing at first, but the evidence was not
conclusive. and the law-abiding ele-
ment prevailed. 7 can't say what might
happen If it were known that the men
are guilty. but I don't anticipate any
trouble"
The accused men have retained an
attorney from Salinas to defend them
at the examination, but If there is any
laxfty in the laws operations 1t is gen
orally believed the father Of the girl
will have TO be accounted with, as he is
a man of stern determination. and will
be satisfied with nothing but exact JUS

This was what the Islander suit was
based on, and $25, 900 damages was
asked. Another count based on the
conversation Rea had with S. q. Tomp-
kins was not sustained.
Now that a jury has been found in
the county who had the manhood to
bring in a verdict against Rea people
predict a general falling off in the fol-

The trial has attracted a great deal
of attention. Rea made his boasts when
the suit was filed that it would never

he would tell politics for twenty years

gangsters and officials. When he got

that Queen Victoria is following the
trend of events with much chagrin. Her
aversion to war in the declining years
of her reign, is well known and is an
appreciable factor in the situation.
The Austrian and German news
papers are closely following the dispute
between Great Britain and France, and
while they express the hope that it will
not end in war, the general feeling is
that the French position is untenabble,
and that Great Britain is entitled to
reap the fruits of victory.

two feet over the bar at low tide. The
new channel just found is the Kusli-
yak, which will carry eight feet over
the bar at low water, and, according
to present expectations, will permit
ships of moderate draught to proceed
directly into the Yukon from the south
and then to continue up the river four
or five hundred miles to a safe landing
before trans-shipping to the smaller
boats, which will go the remainder of
the way up the river. Aside from
shortening the distance, this will put
the Yukon region into much closer &C
cess from the south.
The information obtained will be en-
bodied in a chart which will be ready
for the use of navigators in time for the
first parties going up next spring, so
as to afford the greater safety TO navi-
cation for all that region.
