CLAIM RATS HAVE VANISHED


SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 9.-While
shipping men are bitterly complaining
of the inconvenience and expense en-
tailed by the quarantine regulations
which are being enforced on shipping in
the bay. II is claimed that on many
vessels the rats have almost, if not
wholly. disappeared and the principal
cause for the enforcement of the rules
no longer exists Officers of the Pa
cife Coast Company state that during
the last six weeks only four rats have
been found on the half dozen steamers
which the company has in service, and
those connected with other shipping
companies say that most of the vessels
in the bay are clear of the pests.

ing one more bitter than the rest,
Brunskowsky suddenly drew a dagger
aud stabbed Neden TO the heart The
men were in the foreeastle head at the
time and most of the crew We're present.
They attempted TO seize Brunskowsky,
but he held them at bay with the dag

turbanee and, wrestling the dagger from
the murderer with the help of the crew,
secured him and handed him over to
the Chilean authorities Brunskowsky
