CHAINED TO DECK.

Chained to the bridge deck of the
British tramp schooner Scottish Mon
arch, when that vessel came into the
harbor yesterday, was a big negro,
Lucas Morgan. He had applied to
Captain Dover. the master, for his dis
charge at this port The captain re-
fused. The black man became insolent
and struck the captain. Sailor and
master then engaged in a rough and
tumble fight, but the little skipper was
no match for Morgan and the captain
was in hard straits when the second
and third officers and two quartermas-
ters appeared and took charge of the
negro. By Captain bowers orders
Lucas was handcuffed to a stanchion.
The captain then renewed the fight.
and the next and all succeeding rounds
We're bowers. When the skipper went
ashore to report the affair to the Brit
ish consul he left the chained negro in
charge of Chief Officer Alexander, a
ladyiiSe little man with fierce and
dropping mustache, who explained that
Lucas was undergoing punishment for
INSTRUMENTATION and that he was there
to see that nobody spoke to the negro.
The other officers of the ship said
that Lucas had been surly throughout
the passage and had been a constant
source of annoyance. They said, fur
ther, that he had bitten Captain Dover
during the first engagement.
Members of the crew appeared to be
in sympathy with the negro and said
that Captain Dover had beaten the
man numerically after he had been
chained down securely.

REPAIRS AT MARE ISLAND.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-The army
transport Sheridan, which sustained
extensive damage some months ago by
grounding, probably will be docked at
the navy yard at Mare island. Such a
request has been made by the war de-
partment If this is done the Sheridan
will occupy the dock at Vallejo for the
rest of the year, making it necessary
for navy ships to be locked at private
plants in San Francisco, of course, at
the expense of the war department.
There is no special naval work in
sight at Mare island, unless it is the
minor repairs which are necessary on
the Yorktown, which may be brought
north from Central American waters.
If the Raleigh and Cincinnati are to
come to the eastern coast, as is now
under consideration, those vessels
probably will be locked in San Fran
cisco before making the trip.

NAVY YARD DoINGs.

VALLEJO, September 15.-The Mare
Island yard is running short Of coal
just now. A large fleet of coal ships
is now on the way to the government
ship plant, but the vessels arrive
slowly, in fact. SO slowly that the in
come of coal does not equal the amount
taken from the coal sheds. Mare Is
land supplies coal to the training sta
ton at San Francisco, to the several
ships of the Pacific squadron, besides
for some of the revenue cutters in and
about the city.
The British steamer Ferndine is now
discharging a cargo of coal at the quay
wall, but, on the other hand, the naval
collier Saturn is taking on a cargo
preparatory to steaming south to the
target grounds.
All repairs to the Vicksburg have
been stopped. 1t is learned that Con-
gress is to be asked at its next ses-
sion to transfer this ship to the Treas
ury Department for use as a revenue
cutter, and it is more than likely
that she will be so transferred.
A letter received at the yard from
an officer on board the cruiser Mary
land states that the Maryland, Colo
RADIO, West Virginia and Pennsylvania
will arrive at San Francisco about the
first of next month. The writer said
that he had been informed to the eff
feet that at least two of the cruisers
would come to Mare Island to be over
hauled after their voyages, and that
the others would steam to Bremerton
to be locked.

Schooner Luka, Captain Olsen, sail
ed for Laysan Island yesterday after
noon for another load of guano and
Max Sehlemmer went along as a pas
senger. He is making the round trip,
having come up from Laysan in his
boat. Captain Olsen will have no diff
Guilty locating Laysan this trip, for
Sehlemmer has been over the route long
enough to know the way by the feel
of the water. It is said that the rea-
son Olsen missed the island, when he
went looking for it on the trip be
fore Rosehin had her, was that he
steered such zigzag course that he
lost Laysan in one of the corners. Rose
hill, who took her down and brought
her back on the last trip, is ashore,
signing for other worlds to conquer.
The change of masters is believed to
have been caused by Rosehill's de-
mand for repairs, the owners not deem
ing repairs at present necessary. Rose
hill, it win be remembered, was with
Jack London for awhile, between Pearl
Harbor and Honolulu, but he withdrew
as the time for the round the-world
tour approached, saying there was not
room enough In the Shark for him to
m6ve around.

Safe, Sure and Speedy.

No external remedy ever yet devised
has so fully and unquestionably met
these three prime conditions
as successfully as Allcock's
Plasters. They are safe be-
cause they contain no deleterious
drugs and are manufactured upon sci
tentific principals of medicine. They
are sure because nothing goes into
them except ingredients which are ex-
actly adapted to the purposes for
which a plaster is required They are
speedy in their action because their
medicinal qualities go right to their
work of relieving pain and restoring
the natural and healthy performance
of the functions of muscles, nerves and
skin.
Allcock's Plasters are the original
and genuine porous plasters and, like
most meritorious articles, have been
extensively initiated, therefore, always
make sure and get the genuine All
cocks.
