Steamer Valencia Meets

MANY LIVES LOST.
Meagre Reports Tell of Frightful
Disaster on the Coast of
Vancouver Island.

Victoria, B. c., Jan. 24.-The steam
San Francisco with 81 passengers and
q crew of 60, went ashore at midnight
Monday night on the coast of Van
couver Island during thick fog and a
large number of persons were drowned
when attempting to leave the ship
The steamer is on the rocks against a
high cliff and is likely to go to pieces
at any time. One boats crew reached
Cape Beale, 120 miles from here, at 3
o'clock Tuesday afternoon and nine
men got ashore near the telegraph
hut, about Is miles from the light
house.
Two men are prisoners on the face
of the cliff near which the steamer
went ashore and cannot get up the
cliff or return to the wreck. The sea
will probably reach them when the
tide is high. The men report terrible
scenes. One woman dropped her child
in the sea while trying to hand it to
her husband who was in one of the
boats.
When the boats crew left there was
little boy running about the deck
crying for his mother, who was among
the drowned. There are still about
125 persons on the wreck, with almost
certain death staring them in the face.
The Valencia is an iron screw
steamer of 1888 tons capacity, 252 feet

The recent forcible removal from
the White House of Mrs. Minor Morris
was made the subject of emphatic de-
nunciation by Mr.. Tillman in the
senate on the 18th. His remarks
called out remonstrances from Messrs.
Hale, Hopkins and Daniel. In a ses-
sion of two and half hours the house
took favorable action on 1G6 pension
bills. Forty-two of the beneficiaries
are blind and 6S are paralyzed.
There was an echo of Wednesday, S
stormy session in the senate on the
18th when Mr.. Tillman presented his
resolution directing senatorial in
vestigation into the removal of Mrs.
Minor Norris from the White House.
Mr.. Daniel moved that the resolution
be laid on the table and this disposi-
ton was made of 1t by vote of 81
to 8. The remainder of the day was
devoted to speeches on the pure food
and merchant marine bills. After
paying tribute to the frigate Con-
stitution and ordering an investiga-
ton to ascertain the annual amount
necessary to preserve the ship, the
house devoted the day to the passage
of bill providing for the final dis
position of the affairs of the five civil
lized tribes in Indian Territory.
Reform in the matter OF making
deficiency appropriations agitated the
house on the 18th and the entire time
of the session was devoted to its dis
cussion with the exception of short
speech for free hides by Mr.. Perkins,
of New York. The urgent deficiency
appropriation biz was being consid-
cred and Mr.. it,auer, of New York,
in charge of the bill. set the pace by
pointing out the failure of the legis-
1ation of last year to curb heads OF
departments in their demands for de-
ficiency supplies.
With point of order impending the
eight-hour clause of the Panama canal
item in the urgent deficiency bill was
buffeted about in debate during the
greater part of the session of the
house on the 22d. Speeches were
made for and against the administra,
tion's canal policy. The question OF
regulating railroad rates occupied
practically all the time of the senate
notwithstanding no bill with that end
in view has been reported from the
Interstate commerce commission.
