PASSENGERS ILL

Thrilling Experiences Told by
Those Who Were Aboard
Launch Rose.
ESCAPE OF ALL MARVELOUS
Little Vessel Badly Battered, but En

Captain Was Crged to Make
Trip Into the Bay.
XETVPORT. Or., June 15. (Special.)
Nearly every one of the 11 passengers of
the launch Rose that nearly foundered in
the. surf In crossing the bar yesterday
afternoon. Is bruised, or nervous and ill
as the result of the exciting experience.
From the stories told by the passengers
It appears that three were washed over
board and that It was due to the heroism
and coolness of H. G. Mapes and Arthur
Allen, two of the passengers, that any of
them was saved. By throwing out life
lines and buoye they rescued H. G. Hamp
ton. Mrs. O. W. Peterson and G. C
Mapes, and it is the contention of Mr
MaDes that the lmin V. ... 1

stretching ropes across the forward deck

G. C Mapes, who. In addition to Mr.
Hampton and Mrs. O. W. Peterson, was
Washed overboard. says the Rose
turned completely over when the
heavy sea struck the vessel.
Passengers Creed to Go Inside.
"The captain was repeatedly urged
by the passengers to go in, but to use
very precaution," said Mr. Mapes. "Mr
Hampton was overboard twice. I was
under the boat and 60 feet from It.
Somebody below me had a death srrin
on my leg. The boat turned clear over
and I could sea it above me."
The passengers who were on board
the Rose were G. C. Mapes, W. I. Mapes,
H. G. Mapes, Miss Edna Mapes. A. W
Pickens, A. H. Hampton, Mrs. O W
Peterson. Mr. Van Cerburg. F. A. Bal
lard Arthur Allen. Captain Johns and
Connie Johns, engineer.
Mrs. Petorson, who was 20 feet under
water and washed SO feet from the
Rose, gives credit to H. O. Mapes, who
threw her a life line, for her rescue,
fahe exonerates Captain Johns. Others
who say the captain acted upon the
request -of the passengers are Connie
Johns, A. W. Plokias. G. c. Mapes. H
O. Mapss and Miss Edna Mapes. Mr
Ballard says he was shut In the cabin

His left leg was sllg-htly Injured. Mrs.
U. C. Mapes, whose hand was cut by
broken glass, says she was frightened",
but not too much to be amused when
captain Johns called for someone to
look out for his hat.
Captain Johns has been instrumental
in helping other boats in trouble on the
bar. He once towed the Condor in
from Soal Rocks, and recently offered
assistance to the launch Eagle, which
the lifesavlng crew saved by hard row
ing against sea and tide. , The Rose is
" .V,Vered condltIn. but the engine
is sUll in commission. How the little
vessel and the crew and passengers
escaped destruction is a marvel to
those on board and to the crew of the
lifesavlng station.

BAD MAN WILL REFORM
Promises to Take Care of Family
When He Leaves Prison.
SPOKANE, Wash., June 15. (Special.)
"I purpose to take my medicine like a
man, and when I get out of tnls trouble I
will go home and take care of my family
and keep straight."
This Is the statement made by Tom
Greenman in the County Jail this after
noon, after he had pleaded guilty to the
charge of cattle-stealing, and had been
sentenced by Judge Webster to not more
than ten nor less than one year at hard
labor In the Penitentiary. Greenman was
with Bascom Wallace Saturday night in
the revolver duel with deputies. Wallace
was killed.
"I had a gun," said Tom, "but I did not
use it. It was in my hip pocket, and I
lost it before I had any chance to use it
if I had intended to do so. This Is the
first trouble I ever was In, and it will
certainly be the last."
Ewing and D wight Pershall, who were
arrested on the same charge, were ar
raigned this afternoon, but took the
statutory time to plead.

an end of the timber that did not reach
the ground. The other end of the tim

Haskins stepped on the fastened end,
which was freed by his weight. The tim

Court Bailiff at St. Helens Is Ac
cused of Attempted Blackmail
on E. E. Quick.
ST. HELENS, Or.. June 15. (Special.)
-The trial of J. K. (Toots) Blakesley,
charged with attempted extortion in
sending blackmailing letters to E. E
Quick, treasurer of Columbia Countyj
was today postponed until the October
term of court.
Blakesley's bail, which had been
fixed at 200 and which he put up in
cash, was raised to $1000. It is believed
he will be able to provide a sufficient
bond.
Blakesley has employed Henry E. Mc
Ginn, ot Portland, to defend him, but
Mr. McGinn is now on his bridal tour
and asked for a continuance. Blakesley
wanted a continuance at the time the
trial was set for June 15, but Judge
Campbell refused to take the subject
up at that time.
According to Quick's story he has
paid to Blakesley in extortion money
600 in the last three years. His story
is that Blakesley approached him with
a proposition that an ex-convict. Jack
McCarty, would blow up the Columbia
County Courthouse and burn it, and
that Quick could then sell his abstract
records to the county for a large sum,
the three to divide the proceeds. Quick
asserts that when he refused to go
Into the plot threats purporting to
come from McCarty against his life
were made through Blakesley and bj
letter, and that he' paid over $600 to
appease McCarty. Afterwards he says
he became convinced that Blakesley
was acting alone and took the matter
up with the last grand jury. Blakesley
was bailiff to the grand Jury that in
dicted him.
