RAFT OF COPPER.
Three Sailors and the Firt Mate
Reach Frisco

San Francisco, Nov PA raft con-
tanning the first mate and three sailors
Of the wrecked bark Francoise Coupe
came ashore in Tonales bay this after
noon and the men, after securing succor
at a neighboring ranch. were driven TO a
railway station and reached this city to-
night
The survivors are all Frenchmen and
the story they told disproves the earlier
suspicion of mutiny on board, their
statements being borne out by corobo-
rative circumstances.
According to their narrative. the Cope
had been sailing in a fog for three days
on dead reckoning and Captain Irneye
Friday night believed that he was on
the San Francisco side of the Farralones
islands. when, as the dishtsnce proves.
he was nearer the coast line.
The men have very vague idea as to
the place where the ship struck on the
rocks in Tomales bay. They say that
the night was very stormy and huge
waves We're dashing violently against the
ship. IT was deemed advisable to launch
two small boats first. but these were lost
In the angry seas, but fortunately they
had no occupants. Then the big life boat
was provisioned and successfully launched
and held fast with a rope, but when nine
men had been lowered into ii the rope
parted. The lifeboat was then in danger
of being dashed to pieces and there was
no way of getting back to the ship. and
in self preservation the nine men We're
compelled TO pull away. They were later
picked up by the Scotia. The four men
who came TO San Francisco tonight then
constructed a raft and took the chance
of being washed ashore What became
Of the captain and eight sailors yet un-
accounted for the first mate could not say.
The small boat contained two pairs of
oars. a life preseryer and a hat drifted
ashore i'm Tomales Bay this afternoon.
Ed O'Neil, one of the survivors, later
furnished statement of the wreck that
puts different phase on the story of the
scenes on the wreck.
He said the men We're fighting and clam
Oring among themselves and, refusing to
listen to the commands of the captain to
stand by the ship. pulled away Fifteen
men were then left on the ship and when
daybreak came she was fast going TO
pieces 1t was then found that the land
was 100 yards away and the captain gave
the order TO swim ashore. Only four
reached the land and the captain ana ten
others were not seen again One body
was seen as it was being dashed against
the rocks.

Washington, Nov. 24.-The accident but

United States for the three months ending
June %, and also completes the statistics
OF accidents for the fiscal year. As COM
pared with the preceding quarter. The &C
cidents reported show a decrease. the
number OF killed in train accidents being
20 and the number injured 2629, as
against 800 and 2.S33, respectively, in the
preceding quarter Other kinds of acct
dents TO employees and passengers rot the
result Of collision or derailment bring the
total number Of casualties up TO 1885, as
against 12,3o8 in the preceding quarter;
the total number OF persons killed, how
ever, being eighty-three Jess than in The
preceding quarter
The total number of employees killed in
coupling and uncoupling during the guar
ter-was 81, being i less than in the pre-
ceding quarter. The total number Of col
lisions ana derailments was 2,605, of which
1906 were collisions and Ice derailments.

ments affected passenger trains The

As compared with the preceding year,
the bulletin discloses a large increase in
the number of casualties. There were3,-
554 persons killed and 45e77 injured during
the year. IS against 2.S19 killed and 800
injured during the year preceding. This
large increase is partially explained by
the large increase in railroad traffic that
has taken place during the last year. and
the fact that there were more men at
risk. The number of men employed in
train service June 81. 1893 was Z per cent
greater than on June 90, 1872 There is
also good explanation OF the increase to
be found in the fact that the interstate
commerce commission has been persistent
in its insistence on full reports of all &C
cidents from all railroads during the past
year. and therefore accidents are much
more fully reported at the present time
than they were in past years
