Frightfu1 Accident in Yokohama
Harbor--News by Steamer.

VICTORIA, B. c., Aug. II, 1S9s.-The
steamer Victoria, just arrived from the
Orient, bringing news of a frightful acci-
dent in Yokohama harbor, where two lady
missionaries of the American Mission
Board, Misses Simmons and Allen, lost
their lives.
The two ladies had a number Of friends
who We're journeying to this side Of the
Pacific by the Empress of Japan and they
went out in a launch to see them off. The
good-byes being said, the two ladies We're
going ashore in the launch, when a junk
which was sailing into the harbor, run
ming swiftly before the wind, collided
with the launch.
The junk's bowsprit was driven against
Miss Simmons with terrific force. 1t
struck her in the abdomen and impaled
her, killing her instantly. Her companion,
Miss Allen, was struck about the shout
ders and head by the unwieldly bow of
the Chinese vessel and she was terribly
cut and lacerated. She fingered in pain
for the greater part of a day in the Yoko-
hama Hospital and died on July 30, a few
hours before the Victoria sailed.

Erie street, was sent to the County Jail
for sixty days by Police Justice Potts, in
the First Criminal Court this morning.
Riley went into the store of Mrs.

week g She called in a policeman and
had him arrested. The police believe
Riley is a professional fim-fammer.

The ringing of the peal Of bells belong-
ing to the new German Protestant
church at Jerusalem on Easter Sunday
created a sensation in the Holy City, as
they are the first Protestant church bells
which nave been heard there. It seems.
however, that the Greek and Latin friars
attached to the Church of the Holy
Sepulchre were by no means pleased at
the favor extended to the Protestants,
whose presence in Jerusalem is strongly
resented.

drafts until Dick became almost
frantic. In the exuberance of rage M.
III. Sherman wrote that he would like
to kill Dyer Dick said he would like
to torture the manager of the Riverside
Bank. The elder Mcdonald said that
Dyer was treacherous, unreliable and
dishonest. Frank declared that it was
terrible day when he met the gentle
man from Riverside. Dorm confined
his personalities TO those remarks that
are usually considered unfit for publ
cation, and Tomblin, assigned to the
important duty of negotiating with
Miss Dyer, announced solemnly to Dick
Mcdonald that the lady really had the
worst disposition of any woman he had
ever met. The Dyers knew their posi-
ton. They realized that the McDon-
aids were utterly helpless and must
support the awful burden of the River
side Bank, as we'll as the crushing
weight of the Pacific, and so this trag-
edy of finance continued to the end I'M
til collapse came to both institutions.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1898-11-01
FRANK WAS CONFESSEDLY A PRINCE
OF THIEVES.

In this strange story of financial and
personal tragedy there is no more
prominent figure than that of Frank
Y. Mcdonald. The Call will prove to
the public of San Francisco that Frank
Mcdonald, by the authority of his own
signature was one of the most prtncely
thieves that ever. preyed upon this
. State. Through the credulity of Frank
Mcdonald the Pacific Bank was in
keigIed into the disastrous Riverside
#Bank affair Through his lack of COM
mon sense and the fiattering tongue of
I'M H Sherman the Pacific Bank spent
its enormous sum of money in the Los
Angeles electric railway. The Phoenix
project, the Mohawk Canal and I'm
provement affair, the Alaska Coal Com
pany, the Cotton Marble Works and a
dozen other schemes were organized to
take the money of business men from
the Pacific Bank and the earnings of
working men from the Peoples Home
Savings Bank. One of the most start
ling exposes that The Call will find it's
duty to make is Frank McDonald's gil
gantic plot to steal $500, 900 deliberately
and almost without technical manipu
lation from the Pacific Bank.
The facts will prove that Frank Nc
Donald, surrounded by his parasites
and f1atterers, led the bank into losing
ventures and sank money in an effort to
become a thief. The story will not be
uninteresting and better than any other
phase of the terrible recital will prove
how the Peoples Home Savings Bank
was robbed. 1t will be shown that
Frank Mcdonald had the money in the
vaults of the Peoples Home Savings
Bank carried almost as quickly as it
came in, to the vaults of the Pacific
Bank. J. z. Farnum will be exposed
as q willing agent in these transactions
and the fact will be demonstrated over
his own signat ire. Further than this
and not satisfied with flching nearly
one million dollars from the Peoples
Bank Frank Mcdonald, at the frantic
appeal of his brother. Richard McDon-
aid Jr., tried to steal more until both
saw the banks of the East at their
threats and their willing tool, w. H. H.
Hart, ex-Attorney General, no longer
able to help them And then the doors
of their thieves den were closed. With
cruel deliberation Frank Mcdonald
schemed to seize the benefits CT mis-
fathers property and to do so planned
what should be and what should not be
done in the event of his fathers death.
The character of such speculation at
that time, six years ago, may be better
understood when it is known that the
elder Mcdonald is still alive and Frank
Mcdonald, confessed thief, was flu
gltive from justice at the time of his
death in London four months ago.
In his letters, which possess a terri
BILE meaning, The Call win reveal one
of the elements of it's proof that WI
liam H. H. Hart was dishonesty in
collision with the thieving bankers.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1898-11-01
THE PART PLAYED By WOMEN In
LEADING DICK TO RUIN.

Not the least interesting part of the
secret correspondence is on perfumed
and dainty paper and in the charac-
teristic handwriting of women. These
ladies, with a fearlessness that few men
command, carried their regulations on
the points Of their pens. There is more
than one epistle in this correspondence
from women high in the esteem Of the
community, women enjoying the con-
fidence of thousands as educators of
little children in the public schools of
San Francisco But there are plots
and schemes and counter plots and
counter schemes in the School Depart
ment Of this city and the letters of at
least one of these women will show
how directors are made and unmade in
the offices of thieving bankers and COM
placeIlt attorneys.
These interesting epistles will show
how 1t sometimes happens that school
directors are the creatures of school
teachers, and not always the contrary,
as is generally supposed. The CORE
spondence in this phase, it would seem,
would be incomplete If the rather
coarse love affairs of r. H. Mcdonald
Jr. were not exploited, and more than
one woman who sent her perfumed
notes to the Pacific Bank thinks now
perhaps that there was some Ink that
might better never. have been spilled.
And this terrible correspondence re-
fecting all, perhaps, of the worst mo-
tives and most dubious actions that
carry men forward in their lust for
money The Call has in it's possession
and will publish with purpose that
some of the stolen thousands belong
ing to the people of this city may be
recovered and the men who conspired
to rob the poor people who intrusted to
their honor may be punished as they
deserve for their crimes.

masked men held up the occupants of
the Union Depot Company's freight Of
flee on Washington street. The rob-
bers obtained between $500 and $500
from the safe and the cashiers money
drawer and made their escape.
Four men were in the freight Office
working when two masked men entered
by rear door.
They lined the four occupants of the
office up in one corner with their hands
in the air. While one of the robbers
covered the four with his revolver the
other proceeded to the money drawer,
which he had already compelled Cashier
H. M. Reed to open, and poured its
contents into his coat pocket. He
made a similar disposition of the
money in the safe, which had stood
open when the robbers entered. After
securing the money the two robbers
backed to the door and disappeared in
the darkness

hours, his resignation. handed in some

Hart bled the Pacific Bank until even
the McDonalds rebelled and refused to
allow him any more money because
thew said he would never repay it. Over
the signature of Hart himself The Call
intends to show that long after the two
banks had been wrecked and the Bank
Commissioners time and again had
begged the Attorney General to perform
his duty and save thousands and thous-
ands of poor people their hard-earned
savings, Hart refused to perform his
duty and was even then in consulta-
ton with the McDonalds and the other
conspirators in an effort to devise some
new scheme by which the awful rob-
berry of depositors might be made to
continue.
Even when the demand of the Bank
Commissioners upon the Attorney Gen
aeral to perform his duty was made
Hart commanded his deputies to take
no action, while he assured the Nc
Donalds that he would afford them am.
pie time in which to remedy any dere-
LECTION before he would act. The Call
intends to show in this vitality inpor-
tant correspondence that Hart gave his
assistance and advanced his suggestion
for the organization of the gigantic
scheme, one part of which was to rob
the Pacific Bank of 100000. In this
gigantic conspiracy Hart promised to
place the Blythe estate at the command
of the McDonalds.
The official acts of w. H. H. Hart
will constitute one of the most dra-
matte features of the entire story. In
New York, Los Angeles, Sacramento
and this city the man who was then
Attorney General of the State was in
intimate relationship with the McDon-
aids and far more intimately ac-
quainted with their dishonest schemes
than the Bank Commissioners ever
were The Call makes these assertions
with the purpose and the power to
prOVe them
