PIRATES OX CHINESE IUVERS Third Officer- Jess, of Oriental Liner Aragonfa, Brings Hcport, Third Officer Jess, of the Oriental liner Aragonla. , which arrived here Sunday night from Hongkong via Yokohama, re ports that at the time the Aragonla was at Yokohama, snow was still falling in some parts of the country. Sengokunara mura. a. small village In a valley sur rounded by hills, was entirely cut off from communication with the outside world by snow to a depth of over ten feet. Prepar ations were being made to rescue the people of the isolated village. "Preparations for an exhibition to be held at Osaka in commemoration of Japan's success In the war. under the auspices of the Osaka municipality, were being rapidly pushed forward when we were in Yokohama," said Mr. Jess. "The Japan Sea Is not yet free from the danger of floating jnlnes. Not long ago three men were killed by the explo sion of a mine at Urago. Okl Island. "River pirates are still doing business on the Chinese rivers. Only a. short while ago one of the most daring escapades on the part of the pirates in the North lUver occurred, when nearly a dosen of them attacked a steam xaotor-boat owned by a British company. There were 139 pas- scJHrers on beard and awiong- these as It -turned out later tkere were atae pirates. About half an hour after leaving port the pirates appeared, flourishing revol vers, spears and other arms. Naturally the passengers were terrified but in the presence of the combined force of the pirates they were absolutely helpless. There was no doubt that the affair was prearranged. The pirates came on deck In a body, coerced the passengers Into subjection, sent one man to disable the pilot by pointing a revolver at his head, put auother in the stokehold where the engineer was at their mercy and had the boat within their Iron control. The first they did was to rifle the cabin of the of ficers. There they got JX0 In hard cash, besides other booty. In real Captain Star light fashion they -held up the entire pas sengers. They actually ruled the boat for four or five hours. The master was help less, the officers had no weapons, the crew could or would do nothing and the passengers seemed like a flock of sheep. The pirates took everything they wanted. When they were finished they ordered the engineer to ground the boat, one of the robbers taking the wheel. When the boat had grounded they leaped ashore and bade farewell to the disturbed pas sengers Ip the most Impudent fashion. Al together they sot about worth of goods and valuables. No attempt is said to bavo been made to capture the pirates. Drlnkwatcr Family Troubles. SAN FItANCISCO. April 17. Joseph M. Drinkwalcr. of Chicago, and his sister-in-law.
