Port Townsend Wash, June 60
The steamer Centennial reached this
port today nine and hall days from
Cape Nome, bringing news OF the safety
OF the steamers Jeanie and Portland.
She also brings word that the story
OF the loss OF the United States vessel
Thetls is untrue. The steam whalcr
BelvIdere stopped at Cape Nome Juno
80 and reported that the Jeanie and
Portland were sighted on the ice pack on
June I eighty miles north OF Cape Prince
OF Wales.
The revenue cutter Thetis was stand
ing by the imprisoned vessels.
he Jeanne and Portland were not in
Jufed by the ice and there are good pros
poets OF the vessels escaping.
Locked in Ice.
The steamer Portland and the steamer
Jcanic are reported practically safe,
though slil locked III the ice foes OF the
Arctic sea. The passengers on board both
steamers are safe, as sentinel boats stand
ing OH from the foes are ready TO render
any assistance made necessary by the
movement Of the ice.
News Of the long missing steamers, Of
the most rcassuring character was brought
from the North by the steamship Centen-
nal which arrived in port today.
This news came TO Nome only few
hours prior to the Cenicnnial's departure
by the steam whalcr BeNidere. which ar
rived from i,e Arctic. The Bclvidere was
in sight OF both the Portland and the
Jeanne and left them to return TO Nome,
only after her officers had assured them
selves that they could render no assist
ance TO the belcaguered vessels.
When the Bclviderc left the scene of
captivity, the revenue cutter Thcts was
standing ready 10 render any assistance
made necessary 10y any change in the con-
dition Of the ice on the position Of the
ieebound ships.
AT the time they were last sighted the
Portland had been out OF Seattle. Nome
bound, Tor s. days and the jcanc for
48 days,
All on Board Well.
But signals from both vessels 10 the
free vessels following them announced that
all was well on board in each case, pas.
sengers well, food and water plentiful,
and general conditions cheerful. Mes
sages, however, carried the frank admis-
sion ON the part Of the officers of the inl-
prisoncd vessels that the feeling Of cheer
lnlhcss was greatly augmented by the ar
rival ON the scene Of the 1hctis standing
by ready 10 respond to any emergency sig
nal.
The Centennial left Nome on the morn
ing OF June 20. The whaler Bclvidere ar
rived IN port there only few hours be-
fore. The Belvidere brought only the
most mcagcr information concerning the
condition on board the beleagicred vcs-
sells, as the only means Of communication
between them and the free vessels within
the sight was by signalling.

This question was objected to as not
competent Mr.. Roote, for the propo-
nents, said that the witness had said
he had examined signatures said to be
Colbert's. But he had never seen Colbert
sign his name and had never seen Colbert.
Mr.. Rootc thought some one else might
have made the signatures. The court over
ruled the objection and told the witness
to answer the question.
II do recognize this as the true sig
nature of Colbert" he said.
