19 feet. It was built in 1882 by Cramp& Sons of Philadelphia. During thewar with Spain the Valencia was en-

gaged for a time in the transport serv-ice of the United States, conveyingtroops to and from the Philippines.

Separating the two points is a stretchof coast line, probably ten miles long.Slightly nearer Cape Beale than iClo-Oose Is a bay known as Pachena, atthe entrance to which are the notori-ous Seabird rocks, on which the steamerMichigan was wrecked about ten yearsago. Captain Baudy believes It Is onthese selfsame rocks that, thehas' struck. \u25a0 The' rocks- stand- out boldand treacherous, and as they standwhere both current and wind seem toconcentrate their greatest force fromthe open Pacific, a landing, unless un-der most favorable circumstances,would appear impossible. If the shipcame to grief in this locality she wouldbe nearer Cape Beale than Clo-Oose,which accounts for the survivorsreaching there.

Struck Seabird Rocks

Capt. James Oaudln, agent of marine,who received the first message of thedisaster from the llghtkeeper at Car-mannh, when asked his opinion as tothe probable scene of the wreck, saidIt was possibly, us far as he couldjudge from dispatches, at Pachena bay,which is about half way between Clo-Oose and Cape Beale.

At 6:30 p. m. the meteorological sta-tion reported that n gale has been Inprogress on the Island coast for thepast two days. Off Vancouver island avelocity of forty miles an hour wasreported. A tremendous sea sweeps Inon the rocks near Cape Beale In heavyweather, with high breakers.

The steamer Queen left here at 5p. m. for the wreck..The wreckingsteamer Salvor left this afternoon toassist tho wrecked steamer Valencia.

Nine men got ushore aboilt fifteenmiles from here. Two men arc pris-oners on the face of tho cliff and can-not get up or back to the, ship. Thesen will likely reach them when thetide Is high. The men report some verypathetic scenes. Ono woman droppedher cWld In the sea In trying to handit to her husband, A little boy of fiveyears Is running around the deck try-Ing to find his mother, who Is amongthe drowned. There are still about 125persons on tho ship, with almost cer-tain death staring them In tho face.

Inher crew the steamer Valencia wentashore nbout ten miles east of CapeHealo In v thick fog about 12 o'clocklast night. She Is on the rocka against

a high cliff and Is likely to go to pieces

at any time. One boat's crew of sixmen reached Cape IJeale about 3. p. m.today, The survivors say that a great

WOULDKILLTHESUFFERING ONES

NOTED MINSTKELTEIES SUICIDE

If the claim that the proceedings toremove Tompkins was irregular isthought to be good by the directors,the board willhold a meeting beforeFebruary t and endeavor to secure thevoie of Devlin or Hay to make goodthe- previous action of Felton and Ford.Should Devlin and Ray decline to altertheir original position in favor ofTompkins, the Incumbent warden mayhold office until his term shall haveexpired or the deadlock among thedirectors Is broken.

Should Edgar, who was elected bythe directors to succeed Tompklns, as-sume the duties and functions of thatoffice on February 1, as. proposed, allhis acts, according to the Interpreta-tion of the law made by some, wouldbe without force and effect.

It is claimed by lawyers, who basetheir views on an opinion of the su-preme court given In connection witha contest over a Santa Barbara Judge-ship, that Wilklns' term of office ex-pired on the first instant, and thatany official act of his after that datewas illegal and void. Without the' voteof Wilklns on the 13th, there would nothave been a majority vote of the di-rectors to declare the office of thewarden vacant. IfWilklns voted with-out authority of law, Tompkins mayretain the office of warden of SanQuentln until legally removed.

SAN KUANCISCO, Jan. 23.-Stlllfurther complications may arise In thewardenship controversy at Ban Quen-tln prison. Itnow appears that at thesecret meeting of the directors, heldIn this city January 15, only three ofthe five members of the board voted todeclare Warden Tompklns' place va-cant, and the terms of office of oneof these three, Wilklns, had expiredon the 12th. Tho other directors vot-ing for the removal of Tompkins wereFelton and Ford. Directors DevlinandRay were against declaring Tompklns'office vacant.

editor of the Town Topics, was recalledto tho witness stand today when thatrial of Norman Ilapgood, editor of Col-ller's Weekly, on a charge of criminallibel was resumed. The charge Isbrought by Justice Joseph At. Deuel, astockholder InTown Topics.

Acopy of Town Topics issued In189!)

was shown the witness, who deniedthat Abraham 11. Hummel, the lawyer,had consulted him about an unpleasantparagraph Inthat Issue of the paper.

Col. Mann then told of the beginningof his connection with Town Topics !and how W. K.Vanderbllt came to bea stockholder of the paper. Col. Mannsaid:

"In 1876 Iwas connected with tho

Pullman Car company. When the crisiscame In Wall street, orImight say the,conspiracy," said the witness, "Ifound imyself suddenly changed from beinga millionaire to owning not a dollar and

'

being $100,000 In debt. It was at this ,time thatIbecame Interested in Town

'Topics, andIwent to William K.Van-derbllt and asked him for a loan. l",think he gave me about $25,000. ItoldMr.Vanderbilt thatIwished to get outofdebt and wanted him to help me.' He ,told me that what Iowed himIneed,not worryabout. Isent to Mr.Vanaer-blltand told himIneeded more moneyand Iasked him" to take some Town \u25a0

Later he returned my notes and -thestock and said he did not care to loanme any more money, but he said heheped Iwould get on."

Asked how he came to be sufficiently ."well acquainted with J. P. Morgan to.-borrow $2500 from him without security. .Col. Mann said:.

Knew Morgan's Father"Imet and knew his father. Ithink'Iknow htm wellenough to ask him. 1',.,;;,..

"Willyou tell the jury," said District'Attorney Jerome, 'what reason therewas for Thomas F. Ryan to lend you$10,000?"

"Well, that was three or four yearsago. As I remember, Mr. Whit-ney introduced me to Mr. Ilyan^ He,said I'was a, friend of his. He said:'Mr. Mann is a gentleman and anhonest man and any time you can do •

anything for him or lend him anymoney 1want you to do It.'

""I did not see Mr. Ityan again for

some time. When Iasked him to lend'

me money and offered shares as col-lateral, Mr. Hyan said he would takethe matter under consideration. Nexttime Icalled on Mr. Ityan he said:'I do not want the shares, but IwilllerM you the $10,000. Give me your noteand Iwillgive you the money.'

"Clarence Jones, the witness said,
