EXCITEMENT ON
THE MARY FOSTER
WIFE OF CAPTAIN JOHNSON HAD
NARROW ESCAPE ON HER LAST
VOYAGE.

Schooner Mary e. Foster and her
master, Captain Johnson, are very
well known in Honolulu and the fol-
lowing from the San Francisco EX-
aminer Of December 20 deals with their
recent terrible experience:
"Penned in tiny cabin on board
the schooner Mary e. Foster, with a
torrent of water pouring through a
great gap in the vessels side, Mrs.
George II. Johnson, the captains wife,
had a thrilling escape from death on
the schooners voyage from Gray's
Harbor, Washington. The schooner
arrived here yesterday, with full
cargo of lumber, after a twenty-day
trip.
Ten days usually is considered a
long trip for this voyage, but off the
Columbia river December 18th a gale
struck the schooner, and although
scudding along under bare poles, the
waves ran so high as to send her over
on her beam ends.
THE cargo shifted and jammed into
the port side of the cabin. The parti-
ton was torn away and the wave roll
ed into the captains quarters, filling
/ the bed room and private sitting room
with tons of water. The captain, who
was on deck at the time, saw the ca
tastrophe and rushing below was fast
in time to save his wife from being
drowned.
For twenty-four hours the gale
ragged. 1t began in the southeast
switched around to the northwest and
finally it blew so hard that although
there was not a stitch of canvas or
the masts the vessel Almost turned
over"

BANK IN TROUBLE.
Receivers Named for Well-Known
Banking Firm Today.

special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md, February A.
Judge Gorter has appointed Edwin G.
Baetjer and Joseph Packard receivers
for the wellknown banking firm of
Wilson, Colston & Co. The cause of
the failure is said to be due to the de-
clines in the value of railroad stocks
in the south, the firm having dealt
largely in them -.
The assets are placed at $67O.OO0> The
liabilities are $685. 5.OOO of which $175,-
600 is in unpledged securities, and the
remainder of the loans on securities
either owned by the bank or carried by
the customers. The receivership of the
Seaboard Air Line is believed to be in
directly the cause Of the failure of the
bank
Wilson, Colston & Co. was probably
one of the best known firms in this
section of the country and its failure
has come as a shock. The firm is
composed Of William Bowiy Wilson
and Frederick c. Colston.a 1t WAS for
merly the firm of William Wilson &
Sons, and was founded over Il century
ago.
The present firm was founded in 1861.
Mr.. Wilson Is a descendant of the
founder of the bank, and Capt. .Colston.
who is q Nirginian, was a Confederate
soldier. IT is said that the bank will
probably be able to pay the creditors
In full.
The failure is not of great impor-
