CHINESE IN MUTINY
ON BRITISH VESSEL
Long Voyage Marked by Con
stant Trouble With
, Unruly Crew.
WHITE OFFICERS ATTACKED
Algoa, Back From Rotterdam, Has
Hard Experience With Sullen.
Forecastle and' Tempests
Raging Without.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1. (Special.)
With 30 Chinese In almost constant
mutiny and having encountered two
hurricanes since leaving Rotterdam on
May 11, Captain A, lxckett and his
eight white officers aboard the British
steamer Algoa breathed a sigh of relief
when the vessel entered the Golden
Gate this morning with a large, and
valuable cargo of general European
freight.
Twelve days from England the Chi
nese crew became rebellious, and It
was only after a desperate battle. In
which the white officers used revol
vers, that they restored order.
Chief Engineer John Ross, Second
Engineer Robert Mallet and Third En
gineer Thomas Kane were attacked In
the flreroom by 20 of the mutineers
armed with shovels and bars of Iron.
The chief engineer was nearly killed
by a blow from a shovel. He was un
conscious for days and Is still In a
serious condition.
Crew Constantly Troublesome.
Cries of the white officers in the
hold were heard by Captain Lockett
and deck officers, who went to their
assistance and. with revolvers, drove
the mutineers into the forecastle of thc
ship.
Captain Lockett left here with the
Algoa September 26, 1S12, with a cargo
for Naples. Almost every day daring
the nine months Captain Lockett and
his officers have had trouble w.lth the
Chinese crew. The crew that left here
became mutinous shortly after leaving
this port and finally deserted the ship
at Genoa. The skipper was forced to
proceed to England, where he shipped
another and no better crew of Chinese.
The second crew of Chinese behaved
well until the vessel was 12 days out,
when they became sullen and refused
to work.
Constant Vlsrtl Kept.
To protect themselves, the white offi
cers were constantly armed and divided
day and night watches so that at least
six of the eight could be on watch all
the time. Several of the supposed
ringleaders In the Chinese crew were
confined In the brig, 'but the officers
soon discovered that all of the crew
were sullen.
As the steamship Company is respon
sible for the Chinese crew, it Is likely
that police protection Will be asked for
the Bhip until they can be deported on
the first steamer sailing for the Orient
To make matters worse, the Algoa
ran Into ugly weather while the crew
was In the most villainous mood and
while there was mutiny Within the
vessel, it was combating a tempest
without.
HUNTER SHOOTS FRIEND
Bird Shot Intended for Sage Ken
Poured Into Companion.
WEISER, Idaho, July 19. (Special.)
R. A. Meek, one of the proprietors of
the Star and Elk Theaters, Is receiving
the congratulations of his numerous
friends upon his escape from fatal in
Jury Sunday, while on a hunting trio.
Meek was seated In the wagon taking
care of the team while his two com
panions, Givens and Harralson, were
hunting on the hillside about 100 yards
away. A sage hen circled between the
team and Harralson when the latter
blazed away with his shotgun, literally
peppering Meek and the end of the
wagon scat with No. 6 shot.
Sixteen shots entered Meek's body,
two in the face, five in the right wrist
and hand, three In the left breast and
the remainder in the right leg. All were
removed shortly afterward except
tnree. owing to the distance and the
fact that the force of the shots had
been checked prevented more serious
results.
One shot entered the nose about two
lnchs below tho right eye and, passing
inrougrn tne leit nostril, dropped to the
ground. Seeing the puff of smoke In
time to protect his face with his right
arm .saved his eyesight. Meek lost con
siderable blood before medical aid
reached him.

resumed business.

enormous amount of work necessary in
such proceedings was finally disposed
of to the entire satisfaction of all, and
in such a way that the creditors were
fully protected without loss.
For the protection of its creditors the
ompany went into voluntary bank
ruptcy September 23. 1911, and since
that time has paid off nearly $80,000 of
the original indebtedness. This was
done by disposing of a larger part of
the company's high-grade stock. Dur-
ng its financial difficulty not a single
acre of the company's enormous land
holdings was sold.
The Butterfield Livestock Company,
Limited, resumes business under prom
ising conditions. It is incorporated for
J298.000, with a large number of stock
holders, A. G. Butterfield owning 51 per
cent of the stock. The new set of offi
cials chosen are: A. G. Butterfield, pres-
dent: A. H. Kellar, secretary-treasurer.

John McMillen and William Howell, of
Boise, constitute the board of directors.
All are business men and Btockmen.

will reach nearly 6000 acres, including
1965 acres of highly Improved ranches
west of Weiser, and 2200 acres in the
heart of the Summer range near New
Meadows, 100 miles north of here. The
growing of high-grade sheep will be
carried on as before and will continue
to supply registered stock. Many of
this company's herds have already
found their way in Mexico, Canada,
Australia and other foreign lands.

tendent Lamoureaux is greatly pleased
with the results. The machine during
the test turned out paper at the rate of
581 lineal feet per minute, even though
it was at no time speeded to the limit.

single wet-end break occurred.

speculation as to when No. 9 will be
Installed. Superintendent Lamoureaux

nitely when another machine would be
installed, but was sure it would -be
within the next two years.
