CHINESE DROWNED FROM
SMUGGLERS' MOTOR BOAT
Whites Escape Through Surf
and Abandon Launch and
Its PASSENGERS

BUFFALO, Nov. IA motor boat
containing 10 Chinese and three
white men was wrecked on the break
wall off the foot of Michigan street
early today Six of the Chinese were
drowned or dashed to death against
the seawaIl. The four survivors were
rescued by the crew of a police boat
The three white men escaped, and the
federal authorities and the local de-
tective force tonight are securing the
city. endeavoring to round up the men
suspected of being engaged in the
smuggling of Chinese into this coun-
try from Canada
At first 1t was supposed the white
men persisted, but from one of the sur
viving Chinese it was learned that they
clambered over the slippery rocks anc
fed. leaving the Chinese to their
fate How the white men got away
to shore was the subject of a search
ing investigation. The statement of an
elevator Waterman that second motor
boat left shore from the breakwau just
before dawn is a clue upon which the
authorities are now working and which
may lead to arrests.

PRELIMINARY CLASH
OF BUTCHER FAMILY
Plaintiff Is Granted Weeks
Continuance Because of
Change of LAWYERS

REDWOOD CITY, Nov. 12.-The pre-
liminary clash of the Butcher family.
which has been cast upon the divorce
shoals, took place before Judge Buck
this morning when Mrs. Emma w.
Butcher. the plaintiff, was allowed a
continuance of her case for week on
account of substitution of attorneys.
No objection was interposed by the
advisers of the well known contractor,
who is charged in the original COM
plant with having cruelty treated his
helpmate from the time of their mar
rage in Blackpool, Eng, in 1885, to the
time of their open quarrel at their San
Mateo park home a year ago.
On account of the prominence of
the Butchers in San Mateo, where the
San Francisco contractor owned a
beautiful home and was looked upon
as a man of affairs, the divorce pro-
ceedings are being followed with more
than ordinary interest.

greasy, angry auto driver created much
amusement at the street crossing of the
NOrthwetern Pacific at B street this
afternoon. when the automobile run

stopped in the middle OF the tracks and
refused 10 bulge The outgoing cleo
trio, bearing passengers for San Fran
cisco. was delayed for the next 10
minutes while Reide attempted to re-
pair the heavy, immOvable machine.
He crawled under the auto and for a
while said things and used the monkey
wrench freely. The train men were
getting impatient when finally the en-
gines began TO whirr. Reide jumped in
and managed TO get the car off the
tracks 10 allow the electric train to
proceed. His troubles. however, were
only begun, for the next moment the
gasoline tank on the big car exploded,
and the unlucky owner was hurled
from his seat 10 the sidewalk. He
escaped with a few bruises. The auto
mobile was then conveyed to the ga
rage with the aid OF a mule.
