MURDER'S STAINUPON A PROPHET

Remorse Believed to HaveCaused a "Messiah's"

Suicide.

Ogden Police Searching; for theCompanion of the Late

McAllister.

Missing Man's Eff cts Found Among'Thosj of the Strarg-r Who

Kilhd Himse f

OGDEN. Utah, Jan. 2i.-The mysterysurrounding the suicide last Tuesday ofthe man who claimed he was the Messiahhas been deepened instead of dissipatingas the investigation proceeds. Tlie Coro-ner's juryhas been working on the casefor two days and is awaiting further news.

So far the evidence that insteadof the dead man being George O. Davis ofLefors, Tex., he is one McAllister, who mDecember last stooped with a shoemakerhere for some time. At that time he wasdoing duty as religions exhorter, warning

the people that the end of the world wasat hand. There was with him a deaf manwho claimed he was the one mentioned in1.-aiah. This man is now supposed to

have been Davis. Davis received $600from the Canadian Valley Bank at Cana-dian, Tex., late in the lull. Since they

left Ogden together, in December, Davishas not been heard of and cnnnot betraced.

He was to have returned with McAllis-ter and iiis wife, who came from Oakland,Cal., this trip and with them brought

Davis' trunk. The wife has gone, itiseaid, to Kansas City. McAllister remainedhere and committed suicide.

Inhis possession was Davis' trunk. Hepr-tended to be deaf and told the countyphysician that his name was Davis. Attimes he cou d hear as well as any one.A dozen people who say they knew McAl-lister declare that he wa* the suicide.Nothing can be heard from Davis' peopiest Lefors, Texas.

The impression prevails here that Daviswas murdered by McAllister, who tootpossession of the Texan's stock of thisworld's goods, but remorse overcame himand he ended his life.

Efforts are being made to trace Davis.The Coroner's jury has as yet reached nodecision.

LOST HIS FORTUNE AT TACOMA.

California Mongol Who Was Going toChina a Prince Wi.l Return

a Pauper.TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 24.— Lee Gem

Cow, an intelligent-looking young Chi-nese, appeared at the police station thisafternoon with a pitiful tale of havingbeen robbed of a draft on a Hongkongbank for $1100, the accumulation of sev-eral years of labor inCalifornia. Asnearlyas can be Fathered from the almost unin-tellisible English of Lee he was robbedon Thursday night while asleep at the\u25a0wharf ina tourist car, in which he arrivedabout a week ago from Cal ifornia. Afterhis passage had been paid at San Fran-cisco he invested all his earnings, exceptthe few übliars necessary to procure thenecessities for tbe trip,in a draft on aHongkong bank, which he kept securely\u25a0pinned in an inn«r pocket ot his blouse.Itis the custom of the railway officials

at the wharf to assign Chinese arrivalswho are intended passengers to the floweryKingdom on the steamers of the companyto quarters on the second floor of the olddepot at the wharf until the place is filled.Af:er that new arrivals are allowed tojUeep in the tourist-car.-j standing on thetrack near the buildincs. Lee was sleep-ing iv one of these cars when the robbeiyoccurred.Itis, of course, suspected that some of

his fellow Celestials Is responsible for thedisappearance of the money, out the po-lice have thus far only a very slight clewupon which to work.

Lee has lived in California over fiveyears and earned his money by hard workin a laundry and at market gardening.He was returning to China as a prince,intending to make his father a fine pres-ent, taKe to himself a wife and settledown. Now, unless his draft is recovered,he must return to San Francisco practi-cally a pauper and start tna saving pro-cess over again. He is lodging at the cityjailwhile the police are working.

PACIFIC GROVE ADVENTURE.

Salinas Resident Attempts to Capture a

Sea Lion and Barely EscapesAlive.

PACIFIC GROVE, Cal., Jan. 24.—Wil-liam G. Conrad, who arrived last weekfrom his home in Salinas, met with apeculiar accident yesterday. He was walk-ingalong the beach near New Montereywhen his wife, who accompanied him,saw a small sea lion sunning itself on arock near the shore. Conrad determinedto catch the little animal. Running toMcAbee's boathouse close by,he procureda rope and, the tide being low, he crept

out with little difficulty to the rock wheretoe sea lion lay. He found the little fel-low quite gentle and itwas an easy matterto fasten the rope around it.

Just as he was about to carry his captiveto the sbore a big wave struck them andbore Conrad, who was standing on a rockslippery with seaweed and kelp, entirelyoff his feet. The wave dashed over the sealion and with a disgusted bark it divedfrom the rock, taking the rope withiv AsConrad had hold of the other end of therope, he was carried some distance fromthe beacli before the suddenness of thecatastrophe and the amount of salt waterhe had invoiuniar.lv swallowed permittedhim to realize the situation. Fortunatelyfor him, a young man upon the beach hadwitnessed the whoie affair and promptlycame to his assistance, pulling him out ofthe water more deaa thnn alive. He soonrecovered from the effects of his uninten-tional bath, none the worse ior the wettingbut disgusted because he had Jailed tosecure the sea lion.

NATURE'S GIFTTO SAN DIEGO

Finest Harbor on the CoastSouth of the Golden

Gate.

Natural Port of Entry for theCommerce of the Entire

Southwest.

Human Ingenuity Adding Improve-ments for the Accommodation

of Shipping.

SAN DIEGO, Cal , Jan. 23.— The pilotchart of the North Pacific Ocean forDecember, 1896, published by the Bureauof Navigation at Washington, indicatesin a striking manner the very importantposition occupied by the port of SanDiego, its proximity to the great circleroutes from China and Japan to SalinasCruz, the Pacific terminus of the Tehuan-tepec Railway, that the republic of

Mexico is doing so much to develop, andfrom which in a few years' time a largetrade willradiate.

The stearasnip route from Yokohama toBrito, the Pacific terminus of the Nica-ragua Canal, passes within 116 miles ofSan Diego

—six or eight hours' steaming.

From the topof Point Loma, the stretchof land that so safely shelters the bay ofSan Diego, could be seen the smoke ofsteain«rs bound from Brito to Hongkongpassing along the great circle route butthirty-four miles away.

The nearest safe harbor to the north isSan Francisco, 482 miles distant. Thereis no shelterin: cove to the south inUnited States territory. San Quintin, inMexico, is the nearest harbor in thatdirection.

What New Orlens is to the commerce ofthe Gulf States so must San Dieeo be tothe southwest portion of our great coun-try.

For a time one western port controlledall the trade of the Pacific, but as the re-sources of Oregon and Washington weredeveloped the facilities offered by Port-land, Seattle and Taconia were quicklytaken advantage of.

The growth of the Southwest was slower.Many obstacles had to be overcome. Rail-roads had to be constructed through asparsely inhabited territory; damshad to be built to impound the floods ofwinter; miles of canals were excavated tofertilize desert wastes; but the develop-ment, though somewaat retarded for atime, is now making rapid strides; theagricultural and mineral wealth of thisregion is attracting a large population; itis the Mecca of homeseekers to-day.

The natural port of entry for this vastterritory is San Diego. Situated iv lati-tude 32 deg. 40 mm. north, longitude 117deg. 10 mm. west, there is very little ofthefog tdat at times proves so troublesomefarther north. An examination of therecords of the United States Sipnal Ser-vice for twenty year* past shows that atSan Diego there was on an average buttwelve ioggy days throughout each yearor about 3>£ per cent. Very seldom hasthe wind attained a greater velocity thanthirty miles per hour. The averagevelocity covering a number of years, asshown by tho official records, is but 5%miles per hour, and inasmuch as the har-bor is completely landlocked there is littlesea in the bay with the heaviest of winus.Anchorage is safe in any part of the shipchannel.

The depth of water at the wide and safeentrance to the Silver Gate at low tide is22}£ feet and at high tide over 28 feet.

San Francisco at low tide has 243^ feet,Columbia River for Portland 21% feet. Bos-ton bas only 18 feet, ana New'Yors but23V-3 feet.

'me bottom is uniformly good; no rockshave been discovered in the bay or ap-proaches; tnere is much less swell on thebar than on any other bar along the Pa-cific Coast, and there are no treacherouscurrents to beach your vessel as you en-ter. Soundings in the channel entranceto the harbor, as shown on the chartsissued by the United States HydrographicOffice, note the presenca of only saud andmud, which can be readily removed. Norocky barrier exists that will have to bemined and blasted out.

Tne fourth appropriation of $50,000being available, contracts have been letand work is again about to tie resumed onthe jetty, which is beiug built seawardfrom the sanuspit south of the entrance tothe bay. The purpose of this work is toconcentrate the tide in one channel acrossthe outer bar and thui scour and per-manently deepen the cuannel.

The good results following this plan tobridle the tides were w*llillustrated atGreytown, the Atlantic entrance to theNicaragua canal. The bay in front of thetown was formerly entered by quite largecraft, but a gradual drifting of the coastand river silt closed ud the entrance en-lirely. For^ convenience in handlingfreight the Nicaragua Canal ConstructionCompany deemed it advisable to imme-diately undertake the construction of ajeity, hoping tlius to scour out the chan-nel. Scarcely 500 feet of this work hadbeen completed before a beneficial effectwas noticed and by the time the break-watej b,ad been extended 1200 feet tiieswiri of the tide had been deflected and anew channel opened up allowing the coast-ers to enter without difficulty.

A similar piece oi work on the ColumbiaRiver increased the depih of the bar fromeighteen to thirty feet, and there is everyreason to suppose that the result will bejust as effective at San Diego giving a

depth over the bar at lowest tide greaterthan willbe needed for the passage of thelargest ships afloat.

Up to the present nothing has beendone toward foriifying the harbor, but onNovember 29, 1896, a bid was accepted forthe construction of emplacements lor ten-inch gun batteries at Balla«t Point, in-volving an expenditure of $170,000 princi-pally for labor, work to commence forth-with. The plan of harbor defense, as de-cided upon at Washington, includesmortar batteries on the sand spit, southof Hotel del Corotiado, whose range willsweep the sea for miles, thus affordingample protection to the city of San Diegoand the shipping inits harbor.

A flashlight at the extreme end of PointLoma, built at a cost of $30,000. locatesthe harbor entrance to the mariner whenmiles away. Another light at BallastPoint illuminates the entire channel.

Conveniently located near the entrance,

witha wharf running into deep water, isthe quarantine station, one of the most

complete in the United States, beingthoroughly equipped witha mo tern fumi-gating and disinfecting plant adequate toallpossible demands.

On the Coronado side of the bay is amarine railway capable of accommodat-ing vessels of larjre tonnage.

Conveniently located near the waterfront are well-equipped foundries andmachine-shops, fully prepared to do thevery best work quickly and at reasonablefigures.

The total area of the bay is abouttwenty-two square miles, varying inwidth, and about ten miles long, with aship channel from a half to three-fourthsof a mile wile.

Over $500,000 has been spent on wharves,ail of which run into deep water, withfrom 18 to 35 feet at low tide. Some ofthese wharves extend into the channelfrom 2000 to 3500 feet. The longer onescan readily accommodate from six to tenof the largest vessels afloat. The wharf-age is ample for a large commerce and isin first-class condition. Additional rail-way track < have recently been placed onsome of the wharves, piles have been re-newed ana strengthened, and everythingis in readiness to welcome the trade thatwillsoon seek this port. At present theonly outlet to the north and east by railis via the Santa Fe system. During thepast two years this company has been re-ducing grades, ballasting roadbed, re-placing wooden bridges with modern steelstructures; in fact gettina ready to handlelarge consignments of freig t quickly andcheaply. The saving in distance betweenSan Fedro or Santa Monica and Los An-geles ami San Diego and Los Angeles isbut trifling; handling and rehantllingfreight is what adds to the cost. The ad-vantages for receiving and dischargingmerchandise aiall seasons of the year at

this port willmore than compensate forthe difference in haul and must eventu-ally result in the entire shipping trade ofthe great Southwest being handled at theport of San Diego.

SHIPPING PUGET SOUND LUMBER.

Number of Vessels Chartered to Carry theOutpu; to Sou.h America and

the Transvaal.TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 24.—Foreign

lumber trade has taken a bigspurt withthe beginning of 18^7. Shipments on alarge scale to South Africa, which werecut off during the Transvaal troubles,have been resumed. Several cargoes havegone forward, and it is announced thatthe British steamer Pelican, now en routefrom Yokohama with tea, has been char-tered to load lumber here for South Africa.The ship Senator, just off the drydock,willbegin loading this week for DeiagoaBay.

F. R. Lingbam, the South Africanlumber king, started a lino of steam andsailing vessels carrying lumber threeyears ago ana in eighteen months shippedabout 40,000.000 feet from Puget Sound toDeiagoa Bay. This line has been sus-pended, but Mr. Lingham is again corre-sponding withPueet Sound mills with aview of chartering more vessels. There isalso a stiff demand for lumber from theOrient, Australia and South America. Itis reported 'hat Shanghai firms haveordered 10.000,000 feet, most of which willbe cut at Port Blakeiey.

W. R. Grace & Co. of San Franciscohave six vessels chartered to load atWhatcom for South America. Williams,Brown & Co. and other San Franciscolirmsare shipping to both Australia andSouth America.

NORDICA SAYS FAREWELLThe Last Concert at the Baldwin

Theater Ends iD anOvation.

End of a Successful Season That WasGratifying to Artbis and Pub-

lic Alike.

The curtain went down on the finalconcert of the Nordica-Scalchi season lastnight, amid what was a perfect outburstof enthusiasm for the usually calm andself-contained Baldwin audience. People9tood up and cried *'brava," and beattheir hands together until the curtain wasraised again and the San Francisco publicwas given its final admiring look for sometime to come, at the two gifted divas anaDempsey, Berthald and Lucks tone, whohave all been giving music lovers so muchpleasure for the last week.It was the well-known quartet from

"Rigcletto :> that brought the concert to aclose. The programme was made up forthe most part of numbers that had grownto be popularly as-o iated with the vari-ous singers during last week, but therewere a few new pieces, and the quartetwas one of them.

As an encore to Erkel's "HungarianAria"Mme. Nordica sang "Une Nuit deMai," which she had not given before thisseason.Itis a song much affected by ambitious

amateurs, and the artistic way in whichNordica sang it was hailed with such dem-

!onstrations df satisfaction that she could!not resist another encore, and gave them

the little song that has become so popul.irsince she revived it last Tuesday, "WhenLcve Is Kind." She also sang for therirst time the Bach-Gounod, "AyeMaria."the violin obligato being played byAugust Hinrichs.

Both times that Scalchi sang there wasan almost frantic desire on the part ofthe audience to get her to respond with"Annie Laurie." Her first aria was per-mitted to pass with a little encore 'byGounod, which she had sung before, butwhen her second encore came there wasan anxious moment as Isidore Luckstonestruck some chords that were not the pre-lude of "Annie Laurie" ;then the audiencerecognized the familiar brindisi of Orsinofrom "Lucrezia Borgia," "IIsegreto peresseT felice," and there was an outburst ofapplause.

Scalchi sang the dashing drinking songinthe true rollicking spirit, and won theapplause she merited, but she was not tobe let off without "Annie Laurie," soyielding to her fate she came on again andsang it.

Barron Berthald sang a catchy littleson^ by Luckstone, "The Clown's Sere-nade," and Hawley's "Because ILoveYou," and J. C. Dempsey gave the beau-tiful"Don Juan" serenade by Tschaikow-skv. Both urtists were encored.

The concerted operatic selections, bothof which aroused unlimited applause,were the two from the last act of Gounod's"Faust," Bung by Nordica, Berthald andDempsey, and the quartet from "Rigo-letto" mentioned above. The latter num-ber brought the concept to a close amid anovation which must have been very grat-ifyingto the artists, for applause from alullhouse on the last nigtit of a S3*sonshows that the singers are not living ontheir reputations, but have co.quered thepublic.

There will unfortunately bd no morefarewell concerts, as the Nordica-Scalchitroupe willleavs to-day for Sacramenlo,en route for the East.
