CAPTAIN'S DEATH
MOST MYSTERIOUS
CAPT. BOYD OF THE MOMUS LOST
SOMEWHERE IN THE GULF
OF MEXICO.
WAS A POPULAR OFFICER
Theories Of Suicide and Foul Play Dis
missed-He is Believed 70 Have
Accidentally Fallen Overheard.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New Orleans.-SOmewhe out IN
the Gulf of Mexico. just before dawn
Sunday morning, Capt. John S. Boyd
senior commanding officer of the ships
of the Southern Pacific fleet, found
the sudden and tragic end to his long
and brilliant career as a sea captain.
While the full details of the end OF
useful life ever viii remain mystery.
everything indicate that the captain $
death was accidental
Capt. Boyd disappeared from the
deck of the Menus, one Of the ships
OF the Southern Pacific fleet, between
3 and O'Clock Sunday morning. The
ship at that time was on her way to
New Orleans, heading northwest
through the Gulf, with Dry Tortugas
about seventy-five miles astern.
Rain had been falling Saturday
night, and the sea, agitated by the stiff
breeze, rose and fell. The Menus
held to her steady course. and with
the action of the waves rolled mOnOto-
nously from side to side Everything
was snug and secure. The watch for
ward and the watch aft were in their
places, but the ever-watchful captain,
winner OF several bitter fights with
death in the trackless deep. sought the
deck, to make certain, it is supposed,
that the orders OF the night were being
carried out and he was never seen
again.
The theory that Capt. Boyd had
committed suicide, was never for
moment entertained either by Mr.. An
derson or any of the ships officers.
Saturday night the captain apparently
was in excellent humor, and as was
his custom-a custom which gave him
a greater popularity than any other
captain coming here enjoyed-he min
gled with the passengers until time to
retire for the night.
The theory Of foul play also was
dismissed as being out of keeping with
Captain Boyd's mode of life. The cap
tain was held in the highest venera-
tion and respect by every member of
his crew. The men swore by him. He
was commander with a reputation
for kindness as well as fairness, and
the men also were proud of him for
the record he had made.
The general accepted theory was
that the captain was standing near
the taffrail when a sudden roll of the
ship caused him to go over the side.
Capt. Boyd was born in Boston six
ty-one years ago, and entered the ser.
vice of the Southern Pacific Company
in 1882, two years before his marriage.
When the Momus was built eight or
nine years ago Capt. Boyd was given
command. and retained the place to
the day of his death.
There was no man who ever trod
the deck Of ship in the local harbor
with more close friends than Capt.
ohm Boyd. re was considered
model among ship commanders.

his long record showed only triumphs
of seamanship.
