BEMENT PROBABLY
FAR TO WESTWARD

Nothing more has been seen of tho
ship Bement, which the Fearless HAD
t. let go of yesterday and by this time.
she is thought to be far to the west
ward, trying to get around TO the wind
ard OF Oahu again and have another
try at the harbor entrance.
From statements made by Captain
Olesson OF the Fearless. Pilot Cameron
had a very hard time of Il getting
aboard the big vessel and the pilo:
boys were kept battling the boat from
the time they reached the outer buoys
until the vessel was reached.
The Bement. coming down from Dia-
mond Head to the bell buoy, had her
topsails set and from the time she
opened up Diamond Head to her ar
rival at the bell buoy, she was but
about fifteen minutes. Had Captain
Grant hove to his ship under baro
poles, she would have drifted into po-
sition Cor an anchorage or could have
been towed into the harbor, but no
wore snip and headed out to sea in
stead OF bringing her into the wind
After the hawser parted, the Fear
less was nearly run down by the big
vessel. but by careful handling, was got
out Of danger.
In the terrific wind and sea the tug
could not do her best for fear of part
ing her second line and so both ship
and tug were driven far astern.
All the time the Bemen. is out, II Ia
costing the Territory one dollar day.
The pilot will get seven dollars n day
pay by being compelled to stay by the
vessel. This is turned into the treas
ury and does not go to him. The crew
Of the pilot boat, of which there are
four members, get two dollars a day
each as salary so the government,
while II is earning seven dollars, is
paying out eight.
II is the opinion OF shipping men
that the Bement In the prevailing
weather will be eight or ten days in
making port again.

that the American Tobacco Company. aft

is unfair, especially as heretofore they
received dividends regularly. Reports re-

a Sensational Murder
and Suicide.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CARSON CITY, New, Sept 5.-A

death.
George Sam was an old resident of that
section and was always regarded as So
Der and industrious. He lived with his
wife, daughter and son in a wigwam a
couple Of miles from Shurz and made a
living by cultivating vegetables. A few
months ago the little daughter was
stricken with illness, and after the appli-
cation of Indian remedies. which failed to
afford relief, Sam called upon white ply
sicans, but they gave the case up as
hopeless.
George Sans troubles did not end
there, for a short time ago his son was
afflicted with a serious malady and as in
the first instance, he gave the Indian
medicine man" a chance. When the boy
grew worse and his sufferings became
more intense the father again resorted to
a white physician, but the latter's an
swer was the same as that in the case
of the girl. He said nothing could be
done and that the patient must linger
some TIME before death would relieve
him.
AS the boy writhed in agony the father
determined to end his misery. Seizing
shotgun he placed 1t against the young
mans head and fired The lad died in
stantly Before those who heard the re-
port of the gun could reach the wigwam
the parent had pointed the gun at his
own head and pulling the trigger on the
remaining barrel ended his own life.
