Lost SHIP NOT IDENTIFIED
Fruitless Search Conducted Near the
Diamond Shoals Lightship.
United states Revenue Cutter OnOn-
daga and Men from Life-SavIng
stations on Lookout.

SPECIAL 10 The Washington Herald
Norfolk. Va. Jan. Si.-AnOtheT fruitless
search has been conducted to-day by the
United States revenue cutter Onondaga
and the surfmen Of the Cape Hatteras
and other Hfe-saving stations near by for
wreckags from the unknown steamship
seen 60 founder three miles northwest of
the Diamond Shoals lightship yesterday
morning. The Onondaga steamed far
to sea and north and south Of the scene
Of the sinking OF the ship in her search,
but not so much as Hfe-preserver was
found.
It IS improbable that little or anything
fioated away from the sinking vessel. The
gale. which had been blowing for hours
when she foundered, had likely swept her
decks clean Of everything uSnt enough
10 float. and anything that might have
foated was likely carried far away BY
the wind and waves before the OnOndags
arrived on the scene
Efforts of the United Wireless Tele-
graph Company TO ascertain from passing
vessels at sea II they have sighted any
wreckage that could have come from the
sinking steamship have also been without
result.
The partial description OF the steamer
makes il certain that the vessel was not
from this port Those aboard the Dia-
nond Shoals Iightship who witnessed
the foundeTing. and who had been OBJ
serving her from some time before she
went down, are confident from her action
that she was far out OF her course, evi-
dentIy disabled. and perhaps making fol

peared to carry both freight and pasSen-

WHEELER DEEPLY PERTURBED
Assault on japanese Student Causes
Worry.
Kaneko Tells His own story in q
Clear, StraiEht-foruard
Way.

the young japanese student, Kenii Kane
10. on Friday night on the university
grounds, and fears that it wiz injure
California in The estimation of the East
and Of Japan. leading them 10 believe
that there is a bitter race hatred.
What makes the case verse is that il
is uncertain whether the assault was
made by the university students or by
the Berkeley boys who were on the uni
versity grounds. Mr.. Wheeler inclines 70
the latter view, because the president OF
the student body has had no report on
the matter.
The japanese vice consul. Takahashi.
seems 10 regard the attack as a trivial
police court case. but the Berkeley Japa-
uese Association OF loco members propose
to investigate the matter and secure some
redress
Kaneko himself gives an account OF the
trouble that is clear and straightforward
He says:
I was passing the building where Prosi-
dent Jordan was lecturing wnen 1 noticed
several young men talking about the
japanese and the new anti-alien bills be
fore the legislature. ] stopped 30 hear
what they had 20 say.
AS I passed L heard one Of them say
There goes one OF those Japs now.
Without warning three Of them rushed at
me and struck me over the head, knocked
of my hat, and threw me down
II stood my ground and demanded II
they We're students Of the university They
laughed and spat at me and then walked
away.
Il could not say they were students.
President Wheeler said he had no Off
cial notice Of the attack on KanekO, and
had but Just learned Of it.
