Barkentine Reaches San Francisco
After Losing Captain,
SAN FRANCISCO, June 9. (Special.)
Death, starvation and terrific weath
er marked the voyage from Newcastle,
Australia, of the barkentine James
Johnston, which made port today. The
"hoodoo" windjammer put Into Hono
lulu several weeks ago, reporting the
death and burial at sea of Captain Jen
son, and short of provisions. At the
island port the crew deserted, fearful
that the vessel was due for an untime
ly end and another crew had to be
shipped with the exception of the car
penter. The vessel was brought here
by Captain Dlnsmore, formerly of the
S. G. Wilder and other vessels In the
Island trade.
With 163 passengers the steamer

The East Side pier was reported to
be reeling 34 feet below the mfface of
the Willamette yesterday, that depth
being 15 feet below low water, as the
surplus caused by the freshet was de

there is no indication that other than

GOLDEN' GATE BREAKS MAST
Heavy Cargo Proves Too Much tor
After Stick of Coaster.
Because about 10 feet of the upper
portion of her mizsenmast snapped oft
at Tillamook, while she was discharg
ing heavy cargo from the after hold,
the steamer Golden Gate will not re
turn to the Coast harbor this evening,
but Instead will be dispatched Monday.
All of tomorrow will be spent in step
ping a new stick, for while repairs
could be made, the fact that the mast
has been in position for a lengthy pe
riod has prompted her owners to order
It renewed from the base.
It chanced that an emergency mast
was on hand and It will require no
preparation, other than being swung
Into position by means of a derrick,
operated from a scow, and fastened in
place. The vessel reached the harbor
about 11 o"clock yesterday morning In
time for a number of passengers to
participate in the closing events of the
festival. She will operate hereafter
on a regular five-day schedule Instead
of making eight round-trips a month,
as was planned, because conditions met
with outside and In Tillamook Bay pre
