Accident to the Second Officer of the
Grant.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 21.-John
Hillman, second officer of the army
transport Grant was fatally injured at
S:15 o'clock yesterday morning on
board the vessel. He was hosting the
steam launch from the bay to the SUI
persuucture on the starboard side, on
the after part of the Grant. Owing to
the vessels heavy list to port, the
launch swung with considerable force
when the davits turned, pinning Hill
man against an iron VentilatOr and
fracturing his skull. He had stopped
down to see that the launchs keel
cleared the davits, and was caught be-
fore he could get out of the way.
The launch weighs eight tons and its
entire weight appeared to rest for an
instant upon Hillman's head and left
shoulder, when the davits swung it in
the opposite direction,
Hillman fingered for some hours, but
died without having recovered con-
seriousness.
Hillman was a very popular officer,
and had been transferred from the
transport Sheridan to the Grant only
last Friday, succeeding Second officer
Murray, who was transferred to the

ADRIFT ALL DAY IN A BOAT
PELHAM GOLF CLUB GREENSKEEPER
KEEPS HIMSELF AFLOAT BY BAIL
ING WITH SHOES.

Patrick Gilfoyle thirty years old,
greenskeeper for the Pelham Golf Club, is con-
fined to his home in New-Rochelle. suffering
from exposure which he endured Saturday
He adrift In open boat on Long Island
Sound from 8 a. m. Saturday until o'clock in
the evening with nothing to eat and scarcely
any clothing to protect him from the biting gale
that ragged all day with great severity.
In company with his friends Patrick Condor
and James Murphy the greenskeeper went to
Fuckleberry Island early Saturday morning to
spend the day fishing They dragged their
rowboat the beach and leaving their over
coats, fishing tackle and luncheon in the lock-
ers, went in search of bait. The wind was blow
Ing a gale at the time. and the tide was run
ming high. When the fishermen returned to the
shore they found that their boat had been car
ried away and was drifting in the Sound away
out near Execution Light.
Gilfoyle who was the best oarsman of the
three, volunteered to go after it, and, sprngng
into smaller boat which he found the
beach he threw his coat to his companions and
bent to the oars. He had almost reached the
middle of the Sound when of his oars
snapped. In trying to bring his boat around he
broke the other one. and left helpless The
seas were running high, and Gilfoyle's boat,
with nothing to guide it, was tossed about like
n chip. To add to the fishermans peril, his boat
began to ship water. and he was obliged to take
off his shoes and them in bailing water
While he was thus engaged he removed his red
undershirt and attached IL to a broken oar,
hoping that it would attract attention from some
OF tn" passing steamers or yachts. Although
several passed near him. his signal was not
seen.
1t was s o'clock at night, and he was half dead
with cold when he finally discovered by
passing tugboat and taken to Port Washington
Long Island 1t took nearly hour to revive
him. In the mean time his wife and family had
heard of his disappearance from the other hsh-
ermen and were nearly frantic. They asked
Chief Timmins Of the police force to look for
him.
After Gilfoyle set out in the boat his com
panons had a hard time Of 1t on the island.
There Is no shelter of any kind on the island
and after nightfall it was bitterly cold They
ran UP and down for several hours trying to
keep warm but with little success. Several times
they tried to hail boats running into the harbor
but without success. At about I'D p m yacht
which was working in heard their calls, and
they were brought ashore.

Colombian Consul General at the Westminster

BY the terms Of the contract the Colombian

Colombian Government paid $G0.O00 of the total
$S0.OOO or this $600OO Mr.. Gould received

Seabury Company 1t is mistake that the re-
manning $4,000 should have been paid under
the contract before October % According to
the contract between my Government and the
ordnance company, there exists no clause fixing
the time for the payment of the remaining sum-
The Colombian Government is ready to pay
this sum to the Driggs-Seabury Company, with
whom the contract has been made. I now learn
from the company that Mr.. Gould has refused to
give over the yacht or to pay back the $40. 900
received from the company. through which
our transactions with Mr.. Gould were made.
My Government VIII probably bring action
against the briggs -Seabury Company for the
