PUT IN TO TAKE COAL
THE AUSTRIAN TRAMP CAUSES
SURPRISE.
Is En- Route from Portland to Manila.
Ran Short Of Fuel in the Recent
Storm.

For a few minutes yesterday AFTER
noon there was considerable excitement
along the Water Front. 1t was report
ed that the tramp steamer MargheTita
which was putting into port for coal,
had gone aground near the lee buoy.
The Fearless vent hiking out to lend
assistance to the steamer for no one
knew how hard the stranger might
have run aground.
There proved no reason for alarm
however for the vessel not only declined
the assistance of IT, tug but soon back
ed off the reef. The cause of the steam
er striking the reef was not due to al Y
mistake on the part of the pilot but be-
cause of the faulty steering gear on the
vessel. The steering gear failed IT,
work as the vessel was heading for the
mouth of the channel. The pilot had
the vessel stopped but not before she
had lightly struck against the reef.
The vessel was lying agdins- the reef
while the scoring gear was being fixed
and it was while she was in this pre-
dicament, that the Fearless arrived and
offered to pull the vessel off. AS soon
as the steering apparatus was got into
shape, Captain McCauley backed the
vessel off without any trouble She was
moved into the Naval Row, Waikiki OF
the British cruiser.
The Margherita is IN Austrian tramp
steamer under charter to the United
States government to carry feed to Ma
Mia. She has a deck load of timber. She
left Portland Oregon, 20 days ago,
bound for Manila, the intention being
to stop at NagasaH for coal. The Mar
gherita encountered some of the terri
bic storms which the other vessel
caught and in consequence was much
longer than usual getting this far from
Portland. When her captain found him
self to the southwest of here with his
coal supply running short he made
back to Honolulu.
1t was first thought the vessel might
be the Abarenda which is the govern
ment vessel at Page Page but this sur
mise proved to be incorrect.

OYSTER CULTURE.

The New Jersey Legislature passed
last winter a law providing for the
Scientific investigation Of oyster pro-
pagation," under the provisions Of
which Prof Jules Nelson of Rutgers has
been recently engaged in studying the
artificial propagation of oysters. An
experiment station has been establish
ed at Tuckerton on the South Jersey
coast Prof. Nelson concludes from his
experiments that the trouble in propa-

He is accordingly making an exhaustive
study of the oyster egg, the first report
on which illustrated by hundreds OF
figures, is now in the hands of the
printer.

SERIOUS RACE RIOT
Several Persons Killed and Many
Reported Wounded.
FEW PARTICULARS
The Trouble Was Caused by Negroes
Entering Coach for Whites on On
Excursion Train TO Bean.
mont from Lake Charles.

Beaumont. Tex. Navy IA race
riot occurred on An excursion train re.
turning to Beaumont Sunday night
from Lake Charles In which several
persons were killed and many wound.
ed The train reached this city at /.
O'Clock Sunday night. and contained
more than 700 people, both white and
colored. who were fairly frightened
to death. The trouble was between
white and colored men, and as near
as can be learned. began by the ne
groes crowding into a coach occupied
by white people The trouble was Of
such a ritous nature that 1t is impos'
sible to get any Of the facts.
The brakeman says the trouble real,
ly began in the morning going down
when the white boys and men gather
ed rocks in the train and began throw
ing 1T the negroes at the various sta.
tions When the train started from
Lake Charles at 1880 Sunday night II
was readily seen that trouble was on
hand, and it eliminated when the ne,
groes, being forced out Of their own
car, began crowding into the white
peoples car. looking for seats. No
one knows how the fight started. but
some on fred, and from that time II
was a battle of bullets. The majority
of the negroes were in the small smok
ing compartment and the whites 10
the other portion of the car.
The brakeman Is unable to give any
idea of the number killed. The fight
occurred while the train was in full
speed and he says that large number
jumped off the train as it sped along
while several who were shot were
thrown off One negro was Killed and
thrown off the train at West Lake
and this seems to be the only fact as
to results. He says, however, that he
knows of four white people, white men
who live In Orange were shot, but
when taken off there all were alive
The brakeman says he has no doubt
but there are more negroes men aud
women. scattered all along the rail-
road between Lake Charles and Or
ange Some Of them were shot before
they jumped or were thrown off and
many others may be killed or manned,
The telegraph operator at sulphur,
the first station this side OF West
Lake, reports that some fifteen or
twenty negro men and women strag
glers arrived there. He reports that
they are so frightened as to be unable
to give a definite report Of the trou
BILE. This operator says one negro
named Solomon Botley was killed at
West Lake and three negro women
and five negro men wounded.
The Vinton operated says that there
were three negro men killed and three
whites wounded.
The car in which the riot occurred
is well marked with bullet holes aud
bears other evidence OF the deadly
conflict.
