80 DROWNED, 1S MISSING
IN SINKING OF BRITISH SHIP
Meagre and UnconfIrmed Reports Say
Most of Women and Children
Were Saved.

RIO DE JANEIRo, Oct. 22.--Fifty
persons are known to have been
drowned and a boatload OF eighteen
missing Is the report received here
today In connection with the report OF
the sinking late last night OF the
British steamship VALLEY. The ves-
sci foundered In a terrific storm In
sight Of the Arrozales lightship, on
the northeast coast. and within a few
miles Of the city OF Para. Seventy
five of the passengers and crew are
reported to have been rescued, most
OF the women and children having
been saved. All of these were taken
on in the small boats. Only the most
meagre and unconhrmed reports have
been received here, but these indicate
that the vessel was lost through some
trouble with either her steering gear
or her engines as result Of whicn
she drifted on a rocky projection and
filed rapidly.
II is believed that those lost were
drowned in the capsizing OF small
boats In the heavy sea which was run
ming at the time and which drove the
VALLEY in shore.

Board to Make Example
OF All Pothunters

The fish and game commissioners re-
ceived word yesterday from game war
dens relative to pothunters who have
for a long time been slaughtering
quail and ducks. One of these, Wal
lace Caven, was arrested in Calaveras
county for having in the forenoon
shipped 20 quail to Oakland and in
the afternoon killed II more. which is
far beyond the limit permitted to- be
taken by any one individual in one
day.
He had been engaged in this prac-
tice for several years, but always man.
aged to avoid arrest until Warden
c. w. Getchell recently trailed him for
a day and caught him with the
goods" He was taken. before, a justice
of the peace, who fined him $25.
The commissioners have decided to
make an example of those individuals
who have been sIaughtering ducks, in
some instances killing as many as 20
birds. These men use an old horse
or steer for stalking, walking behind
the animal and driving him to the
edge of ponds or lakelets, circling
each until the ducks are driven to one
point, when they commence their work
Wardens E. Ricketts, and s. J. Carpen-
ter report that they have arrested
John A. Haugh and he has demanded
a trial by Jury. The case is to be
prosecuted diligently.

Nelson-La Grave Match
Is Hanging Fire

The proposed 10 round boxing con-
test between Battling Nelson and An
tone Lagrave is not yet assured Nell
son and Promoter Jim Griffin have not
come to terms but will meet this
morning at Nelson's training quarters
in Colma, where it is likely that they
will come to terms.
1t is understood that Nelson is hold
ing out for a larger cash guarantee
than the North beach promoter is will
ing to give him. Griffin was perfectly
agreeable to come to Nelson's terms in
the event that One Round Hogan was
to go against Nelson, but since Hogan
took the runout powder things have
switched bit
1t goes without saying that Hogan
and Nelson would draw far more money
than La Grave and Nelson, for the rea-
son that Hogan is the big local card,
the man they all want to see in action.
At that, La Grave has a large follow
ing and is known as a good, rugged
fighter, so in the event that the match
with Nelson is made there is every
reason to believe that the pair will
play to a crowded house.
