SCHOONER HERA is
SHORT OF SUPPLIES

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Oct. o.
The schooner, Hera, with 200 passengers
from Cape Nome and St. Michael, is re-
ported by the steamer Lakh-Me, arriv-
ing to-day from Cape Nome, as being in
distress in latitude 40 degrees and min
utes north and 126 degrees and 40 min
utes west, or about six miles off Cape
Flattery, for want of water and provis-
ions.
The Hera spoke the Lakh-Me yesterday,
but the latter vessel could render no as
sistance, as she had several hundred pas
sengers from Nome, and having made an
unusually long trip down, her larder was
about empty. How long the Hera's pas
sengers and crew have been without food
or water IS not known.
A strong off-shore wind is blowing
which will prevent the Hera entering the
straits, and 1t is feared much suffering
will result before relief reaches her. A
tugboat with supplies will leave here to-
night.

CONSOLIDATION OF BIG
RAILWAY INTERESTS

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-The Chronicle to-
morrow will say:
AS a corollary of the Pullman Wagner
consolidation deal the readjustment of
railroad stockholders on an enormous
scale is said on high authority to be the
next move on the boards. A financier
with very close relations to the Morgan
financial syndicate of New York, now in
that the next few months will witness
a sweeping consolidation of railroad in
terests.
The plans of Morgan and his allies, ac-
cordng to the authority quoted, are no
less than the welding together of the
railroad interests controlled by the Har-
riman, Gould and Vanderbilt interests.

AWAITING THE
SECOND COMING
Meetings Held by ApoS-
tOlic Church.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Meetings were
held in six halls in this city tonight 10
mark the beginning of the crusade of the
Catholic Apostolic Church, which will en-
deavor to arouse the people to a realiza-
ton of the second coming Of Christ to
rule the world. The speakers declared
that all signs pointed to the return of the
Savior In the near future, and they
warned their hearers to prepare.
The Catholic Apostolic Church was
founded in Scotland in 1927, and it OBJ
tanned a foothold in this country sixty
years ago. The present crusade has been
advertised by huge posters and in other
ways. The adherents of the sect, which
mas two churches in this city, do not be-
Heye that the world is coming to an end
and are careful to distinguish themselves
from the Adventists.
Meetings were held in Carnegie Hall,
Chickering Hall, Young Mems Christian
Association Hall, Harlem and the Brook
!yn Academy of Music by English-speak-
ing evangelists, and in Cooper Union and
speakers. George Lewis, who spoke in
Carnegie Hall, said: Men have done
of God for eighteen centuries, and she
stands to-day a sorrowful exhibition of
their devasting work. 1t is time to ex-
pect that the Lord will himself arise, and
come to the help of his loved church"
j. B. Ravenport said in the Saenger-
bund Hall: The terrible feature Of the
social arrangements will make men see
that God alone can regulate the nations.
and then he will send his son.. Jesus
Christ, again to help men out of their
troubles. Trouble will make men cry
out, Jesus, the son of God, and he will
come to their aid and rule gloriously
But in his mercy he sends warning and
chance to repent. He has restored the
Apostles to his church and they have sent
six evangelsts to this city to cry out to
repent and turn to him. So prepare for
the second coming of Christ, who is the
hope of nations, as well as the hope of
church."
Other meetings will be held next Sunday
evening

Upton WILL TRY
AGAIN FOR THE CUP
Was Favorably Impressed by the
Treatment Accorded Him by
American Yachtsmen.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Sir Thomas Lip
ton spent to-day on board his steam
yacht Erin. During the greater portion of
the morning he was busy with his secre-
taries, but in the afternoon he took a rest.
He saw few visitors, although hundreds
of small boats floated around the big
yachts. Some of the most venturesome
went up to the gangway and sent cards
on board. The owner of the unsuccessful
cup challenger talked freely to a reporter
and chatted for more than an hour about
his plans for the future
Il shall not challenge for the cup next
year, he said in reply to a question.
You see the time is all too short to de-
sign boat, build her and have her tuned
up to concert pitch to race next fall. I
shall. however. issue challenge for 1901,
and shall complete the arrangements for
it in a day or two. The matter must be
discussed fully with the committee of the
New York Yacht Club
Sir Thomas commented on the proposed
trip of the Columbia abroad, saying: IF
she were my boat l should take her across
at once and you can take my word for 1t
she would sweep everything before her.
sincerely hope she will cross the Atlantic
if for no other purpose than to show them
over there what a Yankee yacht is like.
Believe me, II will teach them something.
Il want to say again that have been
treated with the utmost courtesy by every
one that | have met. Never for moment
have the yachtsmen here made me feel
otherwise than perfectly at home.
have failed 10 win your cup, but l proved
what 1 said before sailing for it. that any
yachtsman who came for the cup would
have fair opportunity to win it.
81 am deeply touched at the spirit
shown by you Americans in arranging for
that loving cup for me. I shall prize it
above all things. 1t shows that my esti-
mate of American character is not wrong.
l am at liberty to say now that the wild
guesses as to what the Shamrock cost
were all of them far out. The cost Of the
boat alone, as she is now, without con-
sidering the expense of the crew or any
thing else, is about $780, ,000."

MURDERER CAPTURED.
Gee Sock Found Hiding on a Vege-
table Ranch.

BAKERSFIELD, Oct. 22.-Gee Sock,
who shot and killed Gee Duck, Chinese
merchant, yesterday. was captured at
daylight this morning a mile and half
from the scene of the killing. He was
asleep in a pototo hole in a Chinese veg
etable garden. When aroused Sock
jumped up and told the officer that he was
the man. 81 sabe, 1 killed Gee Duck.
He owe me money and not pay it. I kill
him" Sock had no weapon and came
along with the officers without any
trouble
AT the inquest this afternoon Gee
Ducks wife testified that her husband
and Sock were partners in a fruit con-
tract. Sock feared that they would lose
on the deal and refused to put up his
share Of the money. Duck carried through
the contract and made money. Sock
then wanted a share Duck refused to
divide and the killing followed It is be-
Duck had something to do with the trag-
edy. Duck was prominent Chinaman

DR.. HIRSCHFELDER'S FAITH
IN OXYTUBERCULIN FAINT

~ r. ]. o. HIRSCHFELDER of
y oxytuberculin fame returned to
after an absence of year and
a half DIR. Hirschfelder spent most of
that time in Paris, experimenting at
the Pasteur Institute. The doctor Wig
orously denies the rumors of his phys
ical and mental collapse that have
been rife during his absence. He
ascribes these reports to a mistaken
conception of what the Pasteur Insti-
tute is-some evidently confounding 1t
with sanitarium or asylum.
DR.. Hirschfelder has taken his con-
sumption cure off the market. He
ceased TO furnish his agent with 1t on
January l. The stock on hand is ex-
hausted and it is now impossible to
obtain any of 1t. The discontinuance
of the sale of oxytuberculin is taken
as a conclusive proof that Dr. Hirsch-
fielder himself no longer believes that
he has solved the consumption riddle.
The local medical fraternity. which
was up in arms on the subject when
DR.. Hirschfelder first introduced oxy-
tuberculin now generally discredits it's
utility. At the time there were strong
factions for and against DIR. Hirsch-
fielder.

declare there will be no further at
