ITALIAN EMIGRANT SHIP WITH 800
ON BOARD GOES DOWN AS HE
ENDS HIS LIFE.
MANY KNITTED IN PANIC.
Survivors Stab Crew and Throw Women
and Babes Overheard to Save
Own Lives.

CARTAGENA, Spain Aug. Elm the
worst marine disaster that ever occurred
in the Mediterranean at least 1856 1tal-
ian and Spanish emigrants persisted
through the wreck Saturday night OF the
Italian steamer Sirio, between Cape
Palos and the Hormigas group OF Is
lands, on the south coast of Spain.
The disaster occurred almost in sight
of the harbor of Palos, whence Column
bus sailed to discover the new world, to
which nearly 700 emigrants Of the ship
were bound.
Archbishop Blesses and Dies.
The Sirio sailed from Genoa on Aug
ust with nearly $40 Italian emigrants,
and stopped at Barcelona few hours
before the disaster to take aboard nearly
100 Spaniards. Buenos Ayres was the
destination of the emigrants.
The archbishop of San Pablo, Brazil,
who was passenger on his way home,
remained on board until all hope was
abandoned, blessing the drowning and
dying who had been trampled on deck
until he sank with the vessel.
Captain Ends Life on Bridge.
The suicide of the Sirio's captain, ten
minutes after his ship struck and COM
menced to go to pieces on the rocks,
added another tinge of the dramatic to
the tragedy.
Standing on the bridge of the vessel
as the seas pounded it to pieces, the
captain coolly directed the launching of
the boats. Then, when it became ap-
parent that nearly half of those on board

survivors are arriving here from all
parts of the country. A public subscrlp-
ton started for the relief of the destitute
passengers has already reached large
SUM.
The survivors are Quartered IN the the
alters. hospitals and clubs, the poorer
classes of the inhabitants of Cartagena
rivaling each other in assisting the snip
wrecked people.
One Man Saves Eleven.
Charles Venturini, a resident Of Bar
celona who was a passenger with ms
family on the Sirio, succeeded IN saving
his three sons and nine other passen-
gers. Senior Venturinis daughter, VINO
is Is years old and an expert swimmer,
saved two children, whose parents are
unknown.
One family consisting of the, father;
mother and six children was drowned
with the exception of the father, who
lost his reason.
Brigida Morella, who has arrived at
the Italian consulate here, relates now
she and her husband were hurled into the
sea by the force of the explosion OF the
Sirios boilers. She was picked up ana
brought ashore, but does not Know the
fate of her husband.
Stricken People in Panic.
GENOA, Italy, Aug. 6.-The loss of
the Italian steamer Sirio causes intense
excitement among the relatives ana
friends of the italian passengers and
crew, most Of whom lived here or in this
vicinity. The officers of the captain OF
the port and of the Italian general ma
vigation company to which the Slrlo be-
longed, were so besieged today by agon-
lied throngs seeking information that
the police were compelled to- establish
barriers to hold back the crowds. Some
of the people assumed threatening
aspect, declaring that facts were beng
withheld.
The disposition to be made of the i'm,
poverished emigrants who were saved
from the Sirio causes special Anxiety:

No More Vessel Collisions.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 6.-Wire-
less telegraphy, which automatically
stops ships when they approach each
other in fogs or heavy weather, is one
of the latest inventions reported to the
United States government. Consul ]. L.
Britain of Kehl reports that Berlin
engineer has applied for a patent for an
invention by which vessels are supplied
with special wireless Geographic APP
paratus which acts over short circuit,
even as short a distance as half a mile.
AS soon as q vessel enters within a
certain distance of another vessel this
Geographic apparatus acts automatically
in such a manner as to close the steam
tube to the screw on each vessel. The
machinery is thus instantly checked,
and the steamers have time to reverse
the engines or reduce speed. In this
manner it is declared accidents by col
lision can be prevented absolutely.

POLE SEARCHERS ON WAY.
Anglo-American Expedition Is Reported
to Have Left Port Clarence
July 20.

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 1.-THE
Anglo-American polar expedition is well
on the way to the arctic seas. In let
ter dated at Port Clarence, July 20,
Ejnor Mikkelsen, who has charge of the
expedition, says the vessel would sail
that night for the unknown north. The
steamer is the Duchess of Bedford. In
the party is Ernst Lefingwell of Chi
cagO.
\ month or more ago the steamer
sailed from Unalaska. After landing at
st. Lawrence island, Mikkelsen writes
the steamer went through the Behring
Straits and on to Port Clarence without
miShap, although the weather was ex-
tremely rough.
1t is probable that this will be the last
message received from the explorers
until they again return 10 the outskirts
of civilization. which will be two OF
three years.

The pump and piping to be Used
in pumping the water from the
Ludwig mine arrived at Wabuska
the first of this week and were
hauled to the mine Immediately.
This pump and pipe are brass
lined so that they will stand the
work of pumping the highly I'M
pregnated copper water from the
mine. The water in the lower
level of the Ludwig carries I.6 per
cent. copper and it will be pumped
into large tanks on the surface,
which were recently constructed
for this purpose, and into which
will be placed scrap iron and tin
for the purpose of precipitating
the copper in the water. The
company has received carload of
scrap tin from California for this
purpose. When this pumping and
precipitating plant is in operation,
which will be very shortly, it will
be another source of revenue for
this wonderful mine which already
produces almost every known
character of copper ore, from low
grade sulphide to native copper.
The company is still shipping high
grade ore to Chicago and. other
pOintS.

Accident Near Ramsey.

Asa Dunn, of this place, who
has been driving four-horse
freight team between Fort Church
i'll and Ramsey for Towle Bros,
met with quite a serious accident
near the latter place on Wednes-
day afternoon about q o'clock.
Dunn was returning from Ramsey
with an empty wagon when the
brake on the wagon gave way
coming down a grade. The horses
began to run and Dunn was
thrown from his seat to the road.
He landed ON his right shoulder,
which was badly bruised, and the
wagon passed over his arm and
right leg, badly bruising both, but
no bones were broken. Dunn
was taken to Ramsey and given
what aid was possible, but there is
no physician there, so he was
brought to Yerington Thursday
and is now at the Leavitt hospital
under the doctors care. While
his arm and leg are quite seriously
bruised and sprained. no bones
are broken, and Dunn will prob
ably be out of the hospital in a
few days.

A transaction of some import
ance took place here the latter
part of last week when the old
Boston-Nevada smelter property
changed hands and became the
property of the Nevada Copper
Co., of which ]. E Keelyn, of Ev-
anston, ILL.,, is President. The
Boston-Nevada property consists
of a smelter plant just across the
river from Yerington, and several
copper claims. Some months ago
the property fell into the hands
of Messrs. Lamkin and Aiken, of
this place, by virtue of SherifFs
deed. They are the parties who
sold to Mr.. Keelyn, and the price
is reported to be $3.50 Since the
property has been in the hands of
Messrs. Lamkin and Aiken quite
bit of development work has been
done on some of the claims. There
are four claims that 60 in on the
deal-the Red Star, White Star
and Blue Star and one other.
During the past few months two
shipments of high grade copper
ore have been made. to San Fran
cisco from the Red Star claim and
another shipment is about to be
made. This ore has given returns
of better than IS per cent. copper.
Mr.. Fryer, who is superintend-
ent for the Nevada Copper Com
pany, will Immediately begin
systematic development of these
claims, and it is more than likely
that this work will consist of sink
ing to water level at least to de-
termine what kind of ore may be
found at depth. This is what is
needed on the property, and the
indications are that mine of large
proportions will be opened up.

Ramsey Recorder.

We have received the first num-
Der of the Ramsey Recorder, pub
lished at the new camp of Ramsey,
in Lyon county. 1t is neat six
column paper presided over by
Messrs. Considine, Lewis and
Harrington, and will undoubtedly
do much to help the new camp in
which it is published and Lyon
county as we'll. There have been
number of papers started in
Lyon county in years past, but
none of them, up to the present
time, have been legitimate bust
ness enterprises-merely political
grafters. The Recorder has, we
believe, chosen a good field, and
we look for it and the camp of
Ramsey to grow and prosper.

Mr.. He'll is connected with people
who will undoubtedly do consid-
cradle business in this valley, and
more than likely be the means of

kindness to announce that the
editor of the TIMES is spoken of as
a candidate for State Printer and
will seek the nomination on the
Republican ticket. We appreci-
ate the kindness of Brother Booth,
but the announcement is rather
premature. 1t is possible that we
may be candidate for the posi-
ton mentioned; it will depend
altogether on what the convention
sees fit to do, and we do not pro-
pose to do any logrolling or con-
niving to secure the nomination.

Last Saturday little Clyde Terry,
whose father and mother reside at
Fort Churchill, where Mr.. Terry
is employed by the Nevada and
California R. r. Co.. was run over
by a train of cars. The little fell
low had one leg so badly injured
at the ankle that amputation was
necessary, and this operation was
performed in Reno, where he was
taken for treatment. A couple of
toes were also injured on his other
foot. The child is now doing as

Patrolling Reservation.

Quite a force of Indian police
is now patrolling the Walker Lake
Reservation and not infrequentiy
prospectors who drift within the
sacred precincts are ordered off
and their prospecting outfits con-
fscated. Nobody seems to know
just what punishment can be
meted out to those who trespass
upon Reservation ground, but the
tresspasser can most certainly be
ordered off, and more than likely
will be subjected to fine for the
second offense.
