AMERICAN SHIP BATTLING AGAINST
THE HEAVY SEAS AND FIERCE WINDS

Speculation was rife yesterday as to
the Identity Of the vessel sighted off the
Australian coast May by the bark
Charles B. Kenney, which arrived Fri
day night from Newcastle, Australia
Captain Salveson thinks it was the
American ship Great Admiral. which
arrived July at Hopolulu, but did not
report having been in any such fix as
was the vessel sighted by the Kenney.
Captain Salveson says he sighted the
vessel May 4, in latitude 25 degrees %
minutes south, longitude 1877 degrees 46
minutes east. The distressed ship was
loaded and of American build, appar-
emily of between 1900 and 1900 tons reg
lister. She was painted black and was
metal sheathed, and was steering
southwest in a strong gale from the
east-southeast. She had only lower and
upper mizzen topsails set, the main
topsail having been blown to ribbons,
which were streaming in ragged confu-
sion to the wind. The jib boom was
broken in the cap. There was nothing
set on the fore or main mast The fore
topgallant mast was raking aft so
much that it appeared to be broken in
the cap. There was steam on the DON
key engine, supposedly to operate the
pumps, as the vessel appeared to be
leaking. No signals were set, however,
and the Charles B. Kenney which was
about a mile to windward, made no ef-
fort to get any closer.

YOUNG ACTRESS
CANCELS DATES
Pretty Ethel Barrymore Is
Compelled by Illness to
Seek a FOrtnight'S Rest
WILL GO TO ARCADIA
Yields to Advice of Her
Physician and WithdrawS
Temporarily From Stage

Pretty Ethel Barrymore has been
ordered by her physician to forsake
the stage for a time and go to a re-
treat. At the close Of the performance
at the Columbia Theater last evening
it was announced that Miss Barry
more's manager had Cancelled her en-
gagements in Southern California, and
that she would not reappear on the
stage until her failing health had
shown noticeable Improvement. She
expects to go to Arcadia Monday for
a two weeks rest. If at the end of that
period her physician regards her con-
dition as favorable, the young actress
will be permitted to journey to Den
yer, where. a week later, she is
scheduled to appear.
That her health was falling rapidly
has been known to Miss Barrymore s
intimate friends for several weeks. but
contrary to their advice and that Of her
manager and physician, she has in
sisted on fulfilling her engagements.
During last nights performance she
all but collapsed, and after she had
returned to the ST. Francis Hotel her
attractive face plainly bore the indi-
cations of illness. In discussing her
future Miss Barrymore said:
1T was with great difficulty that I
managed to proceed with my part to-
night, for 1 have grown so weak that
the slightest exertion exhausts me.
have been suffering from an attack of
bronchitis and this has been aggra-
waited by nervousness resulting from my
anxiety to complete my engagement.
My physician thinks that two weeks of
absolute rest will rid me of my ailment
and allow me to return to the stage a
week later in Denver. 1t is on his ad-
vice that 1 have prepared for a trip
to Arcadia"

ALL ITEMS OF FINANCE
SHOW HIGH FIGURES

NEW YORK, July 23.-The Ffnancier
says: The striking features Of the Off
cial statement Of the New York Asso-
ciated Banks last week were the un-
precedented high averages of all the
items except surplus reserve which has
been recorded since July 9. 1898. when
it was at S53,S45,SOO. In June Of that
year it Will be remembered the surplus
had been almost weekly augmented be-
cause Of operations incident to the
placing Of the war loan OF 1898 and it
reached maximum Of $50, ,2O6, ,25O on
June %, subsequently gradually de-
creasing.
The cash reserve increased last week
by s11.614,700, or 81, ,315, 200 more than
that which was estimated upon the
basis Of the traceable movements OF
money during the week, indicating that
the discrepancies between the estimated
and the officially reported movements Of
cash, which until the previous week
were quite marked, are being corrected.
There is still, however, a difference OF
more than $4,000, 900 between the total
gain for the past four weeks as indi-
Gated by the estimates and the in
crease recorded by the bank statement:
this difference may possibly be cor
rected in the returns Of later weeks
The deposits were increased $22. .273. 800
and the required reserve was thereby
augmented by 1886, 456, deducting
which from the gain in cash as above
| leaves $6, ,046, $50 as the increase in sur
plus reserve to $50 sos, 500.
Computed upon the basis Of deposits,
less those Of S23, ,343, 200 public
funds, the surplus is S56, ,445. 400. The in
crease in deposits. it may be noted, was
less by s1.671, 400 than the sum Of the
gain in cash and the increase in loans
showed the statement did not balance.

CALIFORNIA FISHERMEN
ARE MADE DEFENDANTS

ASTORIA, Or, July 2S.-Suit has
been commenced by representatives Of
the Columbia River Fishermen's Pro-
tective Union against three California
fishermen who have been fishing at
Astoria. The complaint filed recites
that the men are not American citizens
and not residents either Of Oregon or
Washington, as the laws Of both States
provide fishermen shall be. The case
IS in reality a test of the constitution
ality of the fishing laws now in force
in Oregon and Washington, which
provide that fishing licenses may be
issued only to citizens OF the two
States. The union complains that nom
residents have been granted licenses
by the authorities and that the suit
is to stop the practice.

Mayor Schmitz says that Harry r.

Knockout drops to four-footed or
phans- The Supervisors in an ordi-
nance state that the Humane Society
owns the exclusive privilege of putting
the quietus on homeless dogs. Hence
there IS suit in the Superior Court
and immunity for canine hoboes.
The city appropriates $1,000 a year to
provide painless deaths and decent
burials for the surplus dog population.
Besides this money the fines paid for
some Of the dog and cattle vagrants
amount to something. These facts
make the suit interesting.
Until two years ago the Humane So
ciey had the work. Then the Mayor
appointed Harry Irwin poundmaster.
Last October the Supervisors rein
stated the Humane Society. Com
plants were made that Irwin reduced
the fines for dog vagrancy and appro-
Driated them. The tales were not veri-
fed, but the Supervisors stood pat for
the society. So the matter rests.

Now Part of Ferry System.

The H. ]. Corcoran. the river steamer
plying between this city and Vallejo, is
now using her new slip, which, al
though geographically described as be-
ing at the foot of Clay street, is really
at the northern extremity of the ferry
depot. The Harbor Commissioners have
treated the new Vallejo line handsome
ly in the way Of accommodations, and
as far as the convenience of passengers
is concerned Vallejo-bound travellers
now find easier access to their boat
than do Southern Pacific, Key Route or
Santa Fe patrons. The Corcoran's new
landing is nearer to the cars than any
other slip in the ferry depot, and COM
muters who leave themselves small lee
way for the catching of other boats
are casting envious eyes at the unin-
terrupted sDrinting stretch that leads
