MONGOLIA IS
FULL OF WATER
PACIFIC MAIL LINER ARRIVES
IN PORT WITH TWO GAPING
HOLES IN HER BOTTOM.
Engineers Had to Work in Water
Over Their Heads i'm Order to
Stop the Inflow Of Water.

San Francisco, Oct. 10.-With her
forward hold filled with water, the
big Pacific Mail liner Mongolia,
which went on the reef at Midway
Island September Is, arrived In the
harbor yesterday, after being obliged
to remain outside day and a night
because Of the heavy fog. When the
Mongolia left Honolulu she had two
gaping holes through her double bot
tom, and once the ship was under
way the hold began to fill rapidly.
The day following her departure
from Honolulu a corps Of engineers.
under Chief William Chisholm and
Assistant Engineer Bunkers, was
ordered to rig a pump in the hold.
They were obliged to work in water
which was at times over their heads
and with ropes around their waists.
At one time the steamer listed heav-
lily to the port side and the officers
were uneasy for her safety.
The Mongolia went on the reef at
Midway Island at 1927 o'clock on
the night of September 18th, The
captain had orders to land President
Ward of the cable company on the
island, but he also had orders not to
approach the island at night. He
brought the Mongolia to within four
teen miles of the island, the sea be-
ing particularly smooth. Two native
boatmen started in a small boat to go
to the big steamer, and the captain.
wishing to save them a hard row,
ordered the anchor up and proceeded
slowly forward. Soundings were
constantly taken, but they did not
flnd bottom until the Mongolia had
actually struck the reef.
Three anchors were let 90 to hold
the steamer in place, but one after
another the lines parted and the
anchors were lost. Then the captain
ordered two seven-ton anchors low
cred and she held Arm. Captain
Porter had as much of the cargo a.
was possible moved aft in the hope
OF raising the bow and pulling his
vessel off with her own engines On
the second day the Japanese training
ship Anegawa arrived and offered
assistance. Lines were passed to the
stranded vessel. but al parted. The
Japanese vessel then gave up and
departed.
Seeing that In order to save his
ship he must sacrifice something.
Captain Porter jettisoned 1900 tons
OF cargo. The anchors and eighty
tons of chain were foated off on
small boats and the engines were
started The Mongolia responded at
once and with mighty jerk came
off the rocks so suddenly that she ran
down the two small boats, smashing
them to pieces.
The army transport Buford acted
as a convoy for the damaged vessel,
and the day after sne got away a
heavy gale came up which certainly
would have pounded her hull tc
pieces had she been on the rocks al
the time

downtrodden people of Arizona. It must have been a sacrifice, because those spielers were never known from time the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, to have bumped them selves so for the mere people, and it was kind of them to tell said people what was good for them and how to circumvent them by tying them up in blissful matrimony with "Senor Don Ignacio Jose etc, etc, Bustamente
 and playing our Annie Gould to his Count Castellane, etc" The touching part of it was that one of the two dis tinguished orators had been touching this valley and vicinity for years, and he was using all his knowledge and eX- perience and what he had found out by practice to tell us all about it. Only one thing, that's all, cast a shadow on the brightness of this unselfish exam pie; he never intimated he was sorry for the record of his past accomplish ments; or ashamed Of 1t. There was no shame in him. No, he was proud of the knowledge and the record. He said so. He must be proud of it yet. and likely will continue to be. when he

goes back to them if he doesn't get the particular job from Roosevelt and Beveridge he has his eye on.
 It isn't necessary to say anything of his arduous and faithful services against the north side water users. the ingenious and well arranged teachni- calities a corporation lawyer usually employs in circumventing law and jus tice.
 The other. an cratic adventurer, now a practical outlander to Arizona a prestidigitateur in rhetoric and yer bal fireworks-ready to give an exhi- bition on any side of anything if prop erly requested. And these the great leaders who were giving us the truth about cOrpOratiOns-the truth that shall make us fires.
 Another freak streak in the display of logic was our being told by both speakers that ours was - corporation government. state, territorial and na- tional: that we were in the shadow of a great danger in these United States. but that if we would go into the little booth and be a joint state with New Mexico we would be a truly free state and free people, although we are the same people before and after the com ing election. The inference is that the Copper Queen would then ante up their full taxes without protest. the railroads ditto. the legislatures hence forth be as pure and incorruptibIe as they said they had heretofore been cor ruptible and. generally speaking. every thing would be lovely. How's that. It is to laugh.
 Laying aside the figures they gave educational and fnancial-a party inn bued with any kind of spirit would be inclined to oppose joint statehood be- cause of the way they have tried to force it upon us. The administration has not wanted to refer the matter to those most concerned. and only accepted the plan because a few friends of Arizona in the Senate brought this referendum about. And now. the president is telling us what We should do. on the theory. probably. that we really don't know. A ramming of a party and sectional policy down the throats of an unwilling people doesn't look good to the spirit of '76 It may be that it is not a strictly legal privilege for us to kick at refusing to exercise our choice whether or not we want to be tied up. but it is republican and democratic. And it looks like that choice is not going to be an uncertain one. L. H. KENNEDY.

I did not observe any trail behind it. probably owing 10 de- fective eyes It seemed to burst and entirely disappear before reaching Fish creek hill. I thought no more about it until the next day Sunday. when a man who was camped between here and Roosevelt came in and asked if I had seen the meteor the night before He described it as I had seen it, with the addition of the streamer left behind it. To him it seemed to explode and disappear before reaching this station. Sunday night a teamster came in from Tortilla station fourteen miles west of here, and asked if I had seen it.

 One was the remarkable sacrifice that distinguished the argentiierous t"ugued spielers in leaving their com fortable berths with the corporations long enough to throw the latter down before the people and dramatically lambaste them with telling statistics and eloquence at so much a burst.
