Vessel Strikes Twice.
A high wind and heavy sea drove the
Argo out of the narrow channel as she
attenmptlng to cross Into Tillamook
Bay. Eh struck on the South Spit, but
in a short time managed to work her
nay off.
A few moments later the Argo .struck
gain. This time on the bar proper.
Here she hung. Distress sisjnals were
displayed and the Garibaldi Beach life
caving crew put out In a lifeboat to the
Argo's relief, the seas meanwhile break
ing high over the stranded vessel and
threatening to wash those on board Into
the sea.
After a tremendous struggle the life
saving crew succeeded in forcing their
boat through the breakers to the wreck.
L Into the lifeboat were loaded Mrs. W.
C. King, who with her husband was re
turning home from the East, two small
girls of George Hunter,' of Tillamook,
who were coming home from a visit at
Astoria, and a woman who has not been
Identified.
Lifeboat Is Swamped.
The lifeboat was unable to carry them
all and had to take back to the Argo all
but four two women and two children.
The strong ebb-tide prevented the life
boat from crossing the bar and Captain
Farley, of the life-saving crew, attempt
ed to make a landing on the beach just
north of Haystack Rock.
Owing to the heavy surf, the boat csp
srtvd in the breakers, plunging the pas
sengers and life-savers into the surf.
Mrs. King managed to make her way to
the shore in safety. I .con a Hunter, aged
" II. floated toward the shore and was
caught by George Kaatman, of the life
(pvlng crew. The child was nearly
drowned, but after several hours' bard
work she was resuscitated. Henry
TTickman. Nellie Hunter anS the uniden
tified woman were swept out to eea and
drowned.
Engines Full of Water.
Just before dark, aided by her sails
: and driven by an offshore wind and ter
rifle ebb-tide, the Argo freed herself from
the bar, and Is now anchored In safety
Just outside the bar. Her engines, how
ever, are full of water and she is unable
T , to enter the bay under her own power.
The gasoline schooner Oshkosh made an
effort to bring the Argo Inside the bay
at high tide at midnight, but could not.
The damage to the Argo cannot be ascer
M tained tonight, but It is believed her deck
cargo te gone.
The loss or life is considered here to be
due to ths old-fashioned pattern of life
boat which Is alleged to be In use at the
Garibaldi station.
Csptaln Farley's elbow Joint is crushed
and his arm will be permanently crippled.
He and the other-members of the crsw
are given great credit for their efforts in
the face of terrible odds.
The Oshkosh left out at midnight to
stand by the Argo.

DEBTS AND BAD MONEY LEFT
Trouble a-Plenty Looms Up
Ahead of Architect. -
CREDITORS ARE ANXIOUS
Although Financier of Dubious
Methods Arrested at Altar Tried
to Keep Wedding Secret, Anx
ious Ones Made Uneasy.
Russell Smith, usher at the Herbert
Booth Klng-Georgina E. Billings nuptials.
Is not out $55 after all. Despite the fact
that King, the architect-bridegroom, who
was arrested at the altar, has left a string
of bad debts behind him, as well as bad
checks, Smith, it now develops, recovered
every penny of the $55 bail money which
he deposited in order to allow the wedding
bells to peal according to schedule.
Bt range to say, it was Vivian Everett,
the best man, who was a bit suspicious
of the groom and who saved the $66 for
Smith. '
When King was arrested the bail was
placed at $55. King declared he had no
money on his person other than drafts on
a flan Francisco bank. Then the usher,
Russell Smith, produced the amount nec
essary to liberate his friend from cus
tody. After the ceremony, Everett, who
saw no reason why Smith should contrib
ute to the groom's honeymoon, demanded
one of these drafts and said he would
cash it. After some demur. King pro
duced a draft for $260, and Everett has
tened away, cashed It and returned the
chaDge to Mr. King before the train left
for the South. Mr. Smith was given the
$55.
String of Bad Checks Left.
The bridegroom, ' who Is said to
have posed as a millionaire before
the wedding, is seriously Involved in
Portland now. On Saturday he pre
sented a check : to the firm' of Mc
Garger, Bates & Llvesly for $10, drawn
on the American Bank & Trust Company.
The check was returned yesterday to this
firm on account of lack of funds. King
had. held an account at one time with
this bank, so' intent to defraud will have
to be shown.
Another transaction, however. Is of
much more serious Import. The firm 'of
Goodrich. King & Goodrich.- architects,
had an account with the Mount Tabor
Presbyterian Church and on this account
there still was owing $200 to the firm.
King hypothecated an order for the $200
at the American Bank & Trust Company.
He then later went to the Smith Gravel
Company, of which the Russel Smith who
deposited the $55 bail is the head, and
from that company received $100 on the
same order, signing the firm name on
the order. To cover his transaction he
requested that nothing be said to the
church committee because be did not

BABOON SAVAGELY
RENDS HIS TRAINER
FRED WILSOX FIGHTS DESPER
ATE BATTLE IX CAGE.
Torn and Bitten, He Is Felled and
Only Saved From Death by ,
"Comrades' Coming. ,
-Struggling for his life, Fred Wilson, an
animal-trainer employed about the Winter
quarters of the Don Carlos Animal Shows
at the old Exposition Grounds, . battled
for half an hour yesterday, afternoon with
"Kokomo." a pink-tailed baboon, that
sprang from his perch In the dimly-lighted
cage -when his master entered . to feed
the denizens of the Jungle.
The savage simian clutched the throat
of Wilson and during the terrific struggle,
that lasted for several minutes, the
keeper managed to keep his feet and to.
protect himself from the teeth of
the ferocious baboon. But,- overcome
by fright and weakness from the loss of
blood that poured from the lacerations
that covered his lower extremities, Wilson
fell face downward In a corner of the
cage. "Kokomo" - then gnawed Wilson's
left arm in a frightful manner.
During the struggle a score of monkeys
and baboons, confined in the cage, gave
vent to their excitement by loud and ear
plerclng shrieks that attracted - the at
tention of other employes about the place,
and thus saved Wilson.
He was hurried to the Good Samaritan
Hospital. Dr. Charles Ryke, the attend
ing physician, stated last night that Wil
son was in a eerious condition.
Wilson, who has been connected with
animal shows for several years, had a
similar -experience with "Kokomo" a year
ago. Wilson Is. 24 years old. His home
Is in Brazil, Ind.

clinging to the wreckage of a dismantled
houseboat, James Ford and his niece
were rescued from the turbulent waters
of the Willamette at 3 o'clock yesterday
morning by Ed Rankin and Fred Gates,
watchmen on the Sellwood ferry.
High water had torn" two houseboats
from their moorings above Fulton, and
as they drifted rapidly down stream with
the swift current, they collided with the
ferry, crushing the rudder and setting
the vessel adrift.

Gates and Rankin, who were aboard
the ferry, hurried from their cabin at
the shock of the collision. Hearing shrill
cries of distress In the darkness. Gates,
leaving Rankin to look after the ferry,
leaped overboard and swam to the
wrecked houseboat.
Climbing aboard, he found James Ford,
a Civil War veteean and his niece, cling
ing to the wreckage on the scow. The
house had been carried away by the col
lision and the man and woman in their
scant attire were much exhausted.
Rope Holds, People Saved.
Gates yelled for a rope and Rankin
tossed a line to the scow and made it
fast. The swift current threatened to
part the rope any moment, but the com
bined efforts of Rankin and Gates finally
effected the rescue of the two casta
ways. Ford and his niece were hurried to the
fireroom.on the ferry where they warmed
themselves. -
In the meantime Gates again visited the
.houseboat and found the clothing of the
two castaways, and soon had Ford and
the woman dressed. Ford was allowed to
rest on a couch, while the woman went
to the pilot-house of the ferry and was
ordered to pull the whistle cord and
keep It up until help was attracted to
the scene.
Rudder Is Disabled.
Rankin had gotten up steam on the
ferry, but it was found that the rudder
had been torn loose, ' so that the' vessel
would not respond to her helm and the
paddle-wheels had become fouled with
driftwood. The cable, too, had parted,
but had become fouled 1.1 some manner,
and the boat held firmly.

Cummins Out of Party.
Mr. Cannon said Senator Cummins
