ISLANDER REVENGED.
San Francisco Newspaper Man
Shot Three Times
BY Friends Of Young Lady Whom
He Had Siand6red.
Will Recover-Three Assaiiants-Each
Willing to Share Blame.

San Francisco, Sept 4.-Fred Mar
riott. the publisher of the San Francis
co News Letter, was shot three times
and seriously wounded at his home
"Wednesday night. His assailants were
Thomas H. Williams, Jr.. president OF
the California Jockey Club and TruX-
ton Beale. former United States minis
ter to Persia and Greece-and Il well
known clubman of this city. Neither
will say who did the shooting, but Mar
riott says it was Williams.
The following account of the shoot
ing was given by Marriott before he
was put under anasthetics at the hos
pital:
An appointment was made by tele-
phone for meeting by Truxton Beale.
About 9 o'clock Beale and Williams
came to the club and / answered the
door myself. When reaching to take
their hats Beale struck me Il heavy
blow in the face and made another
slash at me with his fist.
Smash him. the d. cried VIII
liams. ! retreated as the blow on the
forehead almost blinded me. / then
started upstairs and Williams began
shooting
we considered it our duty to punish
Marriott for publishing an article last
week rejecting on the reputation of a
young lady"
Beale said that. although the lady's
name was not mentioned. her identity
was so plainly indicated that he felt
bound to resent the publication. After
the shooting, Williams and Beale went
. h.
were placed under arrest Marriott's
wounds. it is thought, will not result
fatally. Williams and Beale were re-
leased on $4,000 bonds each.
Marriott is expected to recover unless
blood poisoning sets in.
No affair in recent years has caused
such a sensation. Both Beale and
Williams have been prominent finan-
cially and socially for years, and they
probably are as well known in other
parts of the country as in California.
Marriott inherited the News Letter
weekly publication. from his father.
who established the paper many years
ago. Marriott was also publisher OF
the Overland Monthly.
While the alleged slanderous story
published by the News Letter. which
caused the shooting. did not mention
the young lady's name. it was general
~ known who was referred to. The,
young woman was eart-broken over
the publication and appealed to Beale.
an old friend of her family for assist
ance. Beale asked the advice of Will
liams and together they went to Mar
RIOTS house. The shooting followed.
In speaking of the affair Beale said:
The attack was made on a particu-
larly warm friend of mine who lives
With her mother in San Rafael. She is
well known in society and not the least
word of scandal has ever attached to
her name. The article appeared in last
Saturdays News Letter. 1t told Of her
playing tag in a night gown at Mount
Tamalpaic with q party of friends. We
felt perfectly justified in taking the
measures we did and have nothing 20
regret
Neither man would say VINO did the
shooting and each seemed perfectly
willing to shoulder the blame.

OFFICERS ExONERATED.
No Blame for Collision Between
Steamers Priscilla and Powhattan.

Providence. r. l., Sept. 4.-'rhe Off
ccrs Of steamers powhuttan and PITS
cilia. which. Aug. 10, were in collision
between Point Judith and Beaver Tail,
were, today, exonerated from all blame
by the United States inspectors before
whom the investigation was conducted.
The heavy fog and unfavorable
weather conditions are believed to
have been responsible for diverting
the sound of the Priscilla's whistle, as
the testimony showed no lack of vigil
lance on either craft. One of the PRS
elias crew was killed and the lives OF
over 500 people were endangered by
the collision. which damaged the Pow
haitian badly and nearly cut the zig
sound steamer in two.

The GOVERNMENT CREAMERY AT
CALGARY,

which seems to have been met with
in Canada, though the success that
is now seen there did not come until
the experiment had very nearly failed
because of a lack of experience, not
in butter making, but in financeering
the project.
1t was in 1897 that the agricultural
department. of the Canadian govern
ment first took hold of the dairy in
terests of the western territories.
Previous to that time several private
crcameries had been constructed, and
an attempt made to operate them,
but in nearly every case they had
proven failures. Settlement had not
at that time advanced far enough to
afford sufficient production Of
cream to keep a creamery running if
it had to depend upon any one To-
cality. Ii, on the other hand, it could
not turn out a considerable amount
of butter each year, and so be able
to do a large business, the margin
of profit on d small business was not
sufficient to live.
Out of these private creameries the
farmers We're getting but little. Many
of them, in fact, were getting moth
ing, as the creameries were too far
away for them to reach them with
out paying excessive freight charges
on their cream, in addition to the
risk they had to take of its souring
before reaching the point of manu-
facture. These things created a de-
mand for improved facilities for but
ter manufacture, and the government
undert ooll to supply the demand.
A special dairy commissioners de-
partment was created as a feature of
the agricultural department. of the
government, and to this was given an
ample capital for the leasing of
creamerics already built, and for the
building Of others as the business
warranted. To repay the govern
ment for building new creameries it
was proposed to establish sinking
fund to which would be paid one cent
per pound for all butter manufac-
tured.
