NEW VESSEL IS LIKELY Pacnjrcrs STio Left Disabled Steamer 'While Keeping llordo of Chinese Brigands at Bay Com injr Home on Mongolia. SAN FRANCISCO. April JT. (Special.) A. J. Frey, general managej- of ha Pa cific .Mall Steamship Company, today received a cable f rom wihanghai stating that the Chinese pirates, after looting the wreck of the steamer Asia, which foundered on the reef off Finger Rock. Southern China, bad set fire to the ship as It was breaking up on the rocks, thus completing the destruction of tho one trim ocean liner. Fought off by the crew and passengers with firearms for hours after th steam er ran ashore. It Is believed that the de fenders of the Asia were forced to aban don her and leave the wreck to the pir ate, who swarmed aboard and In ghoul ish ferocity secured a large amount of valuable loot. Even In sections of China where the authorities are well prepared to sup press piracy, the government has been forced to admit Its inability to break up the hordes. Hence it is taken that the pirates along the bleak rock-ribbed coast where the steamer foundered, must bav held high carnival over the wreck. It Is likely that nearly all the ship wrecked passengers on the Asia will ac cept such accommodations as they can secure on the liner Mongolia, which Is due to arrive at Shanghai May 2 and at San Francisco May 2. As the Mongolia will have all Its first-class accommoda tions taken before she reaches Shang hai, many of the cabin passengers on the Asia will doubtless have the alterna tive of accepting second-class fare on the Mongolia or wait for another steamer. It In likely that Vice-President Schwerin, of the Pacific Mail Company, who Is now In New York, will take up Immediately negotiations for the . pur chase or chartering of a suitable steamer to take the place of the Asia. The offi cer and crew of the Asia will be re turned here on the steamer Persia, which leaves Hongkong May 2, and is due to arrive here June 16. RYAN IS I FISHER SAYS CIAIMS IX ALASKA FILED BY HIM.

SEATTLE, Wash, April 7. lof the four soldiers' scrip tilings made on Controller Bay tidelands, three were filed In the Juneau Land Office in Jan uary, 1811. and one In March, 1911, all by Richard Stanley Ryan, ex-delegate to Congress from Alaska and reputed agent of the Guggenheim-Morgan syn dicate. Land Office officials point out that an act of Congress passed March 14, 1908, makes It impossible, for the Con troller Bay waterfront to be monopo lized even If filed on. The act pro vides that homesteads on Alaska shore lands cannot be entered In contiguous areas. That Is, alongside a 160-acre homestead a space of 80 rods of shore line remains in possession of the Gov ernment. Assuming that Ryan filed on all the land that he could take up un der the law, the Government would still own a large irontage, ana tne Davls-Lippy syndicate owns terminal frontage. The scrip filed by Ryan was purchased by him and the names of the soldiers to whom It was issuea are u no Importance. . Eugene Property Improved. EUGENE, Or., April 27. (Special.) Dr. G. W.
