SURF, Cal, Jan. i5.--The steam
schooner Sybil Marston, Captain
Schillingsky commanding, which left
Gray's Harbor Thursday for Redondo
with l,OS0,OOO feet Of lumber went
ashore about a mile south Of Surf at
midnight Tuesday and is now a total
wreck. John Mccarthy and Dick
0'Neil, fremen, both Of San Fran
cisco, we're washed from the decks by
waves soon after the vessel struck
and were drowned. McCarthy's body
was recovered, and O'Neil's body is
buried in the wreckage which lines
the coast for almost a mile. The
wreck was caused by mistaking the
lights in the railroad depot at Surf
for the lighthouse at Point Arguello.
The ship struck the rocks and stove
a large hole amidships. The schooner
carried a crew of p men besides the
captain and two mates, the crew was
unable TO land last night because Of
high water which washed the lumber
from the deck, but line was run
from the shore TO the wrecked craft
and the men were landed in safety,
The Sybil Marston first appeared
off Surf early last night, her
engines blowing signals Of distress
and with lights flashing for help. For.
hours she continued to drift towards
shore and down the coast, a fog
obscuring the lights and drowning the
sounds of the whistle.
AT daylight this morning the vessel
was seen about a mile southwark ly-
ing we'll in towards shore, the high |
breakers beating over her, After
wards the crew was observed making |
their effort to reach shore. There are
practically no facilities here for aid
ing the men to reach shore, but the |
residents Of this sparsely settled vi
ninity gathered at the heath to do
everything possible.
The Sybil Marston sailed from
Srays Harbor for San Pedro with l.
$4,000 feet OF lumber on January 8. |
Captain Charles Schillinsky was in
command, and she carried crew Of
n men, She is owned by the Eschen
Lumber & Mining Company, Of San
and was built in 1907 at a
:ost Of $l38,000. She has been engag-
ID carrying lumber to this port for
he Blinn Lumber Company and the
southern California Lumber Co, for
everal months. The vessel is 2l5
eet in length, AZ feet in breadth, with
depth OF los feet Her gross tom
age is 1913, John Howalnd, Of San
is chief engineet, The crew
esides the captain and three mates
onsists Of three engineers, three fire.

has COMP HTFLY VANISHED.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-While Mrs,
Charles T. Yerkes, widow of the late
traction magnate, languishes in the
palatial home at Fifth avenue and
Sixty-eighth street today, flanked by a
host of receivers guards, the vast for
tune left by her late husband is van
ishing. When she has V from
her illness and the patience of the re
ceiver with her presence is exhausted
Mrs. Yerkes will be elected into q cold
world, probably without a dollar.
The decision of Judge Ward leaves
the widow without a say in the care or
management of the mansion and it's
gallery of precious paintings, for the
possession of which she has so ten
~aciously struggled.
Their isn't a dollar of the Yerkes
estate that doesn't belong to the credl
tors said one of the lawyers connected
with the litigation here. 'There are
SO, 800 900 of unsecured claims, and the
only asset with which to pay them Is
the Fifth avenue house and the art
gallery"
The Yerkes estate has been various
ly estimated at from So ZOO, 900 to- $20.-
600, 900. Since the suit Of the London
Underground Railway has been started
to recover $500, 900 due on Yerkes's
stock 1t has been discovered that prac-
tically every dollar of securities held
by the estate is mortgaged.

continued their runs after the west
