SHIP AED STEAMEE.
A Oollisioa Yesterday Morning.
The 'Oregon' ami -Clan 3lcKenzie" To
gether near Collin Hoclc.
Two .f the Ship's Crew Killed, and Cou
htilerabSe Damage to lioth Vessels.
There was a collision yesterday
morning near Coffin Rock, about GO
miles inland from here, between the
British ship Clan McKenzie, Simp
son master, 1,597, from Glasgow, and
I the passenger steamship Oregon at
tended with deplorable lesulfs.
The faels are as follews: The Clan
ZI Xar'w was in tow of the O'Ha
hataa in ballast to Portland, and an
chored for the night near Coffin Bosk,
between that point and Hunter's.
The steamship Oregon, which had left
x'oriiana at mianigut came aiong
about 1:15 yesterday morning, and
with her wedge jshaped bow crashed
into the Clan Mcnenzie, abaft of the
port bow, smashing the ship's
iron 'teides and cutting an immense
gash, through which the water poured.
The crash aroused everyone on both
ship and steamer, and as the frightened
passengers on the Oregon rushed
from their berths, they were met by
the assurance that there was no dan
ger.
Investigation showed that two of
the colored crew of the Clan McKenzie
were killed as they lay in their bunks.
A third sailor was seriously injured.
"When the Oregon struck the ship she
parted her anchor, and both vessels
drifted to the Oregon shore.
The vessels were locked together,
the Oregon being unable to extricate
herself from the hole her sharp bow
had made in the Clan McKenzie; the
iibboom of the ship lying across the
steamer s deck.
When the night boat, the 11. Ji.
Thompson came along, on lier way to
this city, she was hailed and went
alongside. A line was got, out and an
effort made to separate the vessels, but
the line parted, and it was seen
that all efforts were useless, so,
talcing on the wounded sailor, the
Thompson proceeded on her way to
this city, bringing the first news of the
disaster,
At the time the Thompson arrived
at the place where the collision oc
curred, there was considerable snow
and sleet falling; there was no fog, but
the night was exceedingly dark.
At the time the collision occurred
the OcJdahama was taking on wood,
When the Thompson left, the half
moon on the Clan McKenzie's stern
was out of water. If she were drawing
13 feet, and was going to load 9 more,
and allowing 5 feet free board, and
f I iron toot, further (vnosnvr wonld
' make about 30 feet of water where the
collision occurred.
Of the cause of the deplorable dis
aster nothing can be said. That will
be the subject of official inquiry and
strict investigation, and the several
rmnors afloats are not entitled to pres
ent credence.
Nothing but the greatest good luck
has prevented similar disasters time
and again, and so long as an effort is
made to sustain a seaport up the creek,
so long will such catastrophes be immi
nent. It is to be hoped the Oregonian
will not locate this disaster at the
mouth of the Columbia. It was 28
miles from the mouth of the "Willam
ette. Upon the arrival of the Telephone
yesterday afternoon, it was learned
that the Oregon had got off and
steamed back to Portland; she ap
peared to have bustained very little
damage. The Telephone passed slowly
within GO feet of the Clan McKenzie.
She was lying, stranded, an immense
the collision I was in my bunk. The
men killed were in the bunks below
iae. The ship had a riding light on
the starbord side, and was struck on
the port bow. The captain had a
wife and child aboard." The above is
given for what it is worth. It will be
seen that he says the ship was
struck on the port bow. One ac
count alleged that the ship was struck
on the starboard bow.
The question as to whether the
slP had or had not lights out will be
an important one in the investigation
""! the pecuniary results, and noth-
ling positive can be staled thereto, at
present.
Additional particulars will be found
in our dispatches.
Talking with an old steamboat
captain, yesterday, a man who has
been plying on the lower Columbia
for a dozen years, he said
"Jjiguts are not enough on a ves
sel; in darkness, or in fog, a bell
should be kept going in answer to a
whistle. About a month ago I was
going up river with my boat; the
night was pitch dark and there was a
dense fog. I kept my whistle going,
and thought I was all right when
suddenly, not a boat's length ahead,
loomed up something with four lights.
It was the government dredge, at
Walker's island bar. Had I beeu
20 feet further that way I couldn't
have helped running into it: as it
was I got by all right. The lights
were burning, but I couldn't see them
till I was right on to the boat.
"Further along, a British ship was
lying at anchor. She kept her bell
going in answer to nry whistles, and
thoucrli I couldn't sec her lights, I
heard her bell and was able to make
her out and keep out of danger."'
At Corvallis Saturday evening F. S.
Craig, editor of the Corvallis Gazette,
suffered a sympathetic stroke of paral

most peculiar one. Mr. Craig was en

Poi:TiiAa, Dec. 27. The interest
in the Corbett-Campbell boxing match
which takes place at the Mechanic's
pavilion to-morrow night, is increasing.
Nearlv all the choice seats are taken
and the pavilion will undoubtedly be
crowded to its utmost capacity. A
large number of Corbett's friends ar
rive on the delayed California train
this evening to witness the match.
Campbells friends are here and
confident the lavonte wm come out
first The match at the pavilion to
morrow night will be a scientific
sDarrinir exhibition and the one scor
ing the greatest number of clean hits
or points in ten rounds win oe ue
clared the winner. Persons who ex
pect a blood thirsty contest or knock
out will be disappointed as the man
agers . will not permit such. Hard
blows will undoubtedly be exchanged
and an exciting contest will be wit
nessed, but it will not be a prize fight
It is not probable that the fight will
be a hippodrome as neither contestants
can afford to take part in such affairs.
Their reputations are at stake and ihe
loser will liave much difficulty in re
gaining hia position as a boxer that
he will lose.
captain Simpson's statement.
Captain Simpson, of the British
ship Clan McKenzie, in collision
with the Oregon, at Kalama, this
morning, says: "My watchman,
James Wards, was on deck. We had
just put out fresh lights on the mast
liead and the side lights were all put
out"
"I was straight with the channel
and did not swing an inch. Leaving
the watchman on deck. I and the of
ficers and crew turned into our bunks.
My wife was with me. We were all
soundly sleeping when we were sud
denly awakened by a tremendous jar,
and crashing and heard the water pour
ing into the hold of my vessel. Im
mediately I got the boats out, and after
finding that my ship was .sinking,
I took my wife and crew to the shore."'
"Two men, both colored, were
killed instantly. My bow was com
pletely torn away. -The Oregon struck
my ship on the starboard side just
between the stem and cathead. The
blow came straight from ahead and
was not from the side. My lights
were out, and I was not in the chan
nel." "At the time of the collision the
night was very dark, snow was falling
heavily with an up river wind; it was
blowing strongly in the face of the
vessel."
It is not to be wondered at, so say
experienced navigators that the lights
on the British ship werenot seen. The
wind and snow doubtless drowned the
voice of the watchman who is said to
have called out to the master of the
Oregon that the ship was in the way.
At the time of the collision the Ore
gon was running under a slow bell
and ran her bow on the port side into
the starboard bow of the Clan Mc
Kenzie, a distance of thirty feet tear
ing off the Oregon fs bow completely
and ripping up the decks and railing
for about forty feet from the stern.
In the forecastle the scene was any
thing but inviting.
About twenty men were covered
with wreckage.
Fish was the only man hurt beoide
a colored sailor and it is regarded as a
miracle that many were not killed
outright.

THE REPORTER'S FAKE.
How It Let Him Ont With Horace
Greeley.
"Yes. I used to know Horace Greeley
verv well.'' said an itinerant newspaper
man in conversation with a reporter
yesterday. "Of all the eccentric men
I ever knew, I think he was the most
peculiarly so. I had occasion to call
into the Tribune office when Mr.
Greeley was there, and 1 never shall
forget a little incident that, fortunate
enough, made a good mechanic out of
a noor newspaper man. Mr. Greeley,
vou know, prided himself that the
columns of the Tribune never got
left on any important item onew3.
"On the reportorial staff of the Tri
bune at the" time I speak of wa3 a
dashing young Massachusetts fellow
a man, so New York newspaper
men said, who had a good nose for
news. The young man had been con
nected with the Tribune but a week,
when one afternoon ho was summoned
into the editorial sanctum by Mr.
Greeley himseif. I happened "to be
chatting with Mr, Greeley at the time,
and remember the scared look on the
reporters countenance when he
ushered himself before the great
Greeley, and the convejsation that
then took place.
" 'Young man," said Greeley, 'there
is to be a dinner at E to night, and
I shall speak. Be there at 8 sharp
and report me. I want a column and
a half.'
"The reporter bowed himself out of
the sanctum. As further develop
ments proved, the newspaper man
had made arrangements to take his
girl to the opera that evening. He
was up a slump what to do. He was
afraid of Mr. Greeley and he was
afraid of his girl. He consulted with a
renorter friend of his on a rival pa
per to the Tribune, and his friend
tli.ia filL-o. 'Oh that's nnthint'.
thus
GUO;
fcMA..fch.u.. wf j-.'
vou haven't been iu New lork
long. How mnchdid Greeley say he
wauted? Column and a half? Oh,
that will be all right. You just got iuto
your claw-hammer and take the gal
to the opera. I know what Greeley
will talk tibont, I've been to dinners
lots of times and heard his speeches.
After the opera come over to my office
and I'll dictate Greeley's after dinner
speech, you write it down, and I'll
wager a $5 note the editor will com
pliment the report'"
"The Tribune reporter took his
girl to the opera. He didn't enjoy
himsolf very much, and after the cur
tain fell and tjio girl was home he
sought his reportorial friend and
found him in his den. They 'wrote
up' Mr. Greeley, and put over the ar
ticle the most breezy headlines in
their newspaper vernacular. The
speech was printed on tho first page
of the Tribune.
"The next morning Mr. Greeley
came down town and tumbled into
the editorial chair at 7 o'clock. He
took up the Tribune, and the first
thing his eye fell upon was Horace
Greeley's ringing speech at B 's
lust evening. He read the article
to tho eud without a word.
"He then throw tbe 'Tribune into
the waste basket and pulled the bell
for the manager.
"Who wrote that article?' said Mr.
Greeley when that man had appeared.
"The new man.' replied the man
ager. "Send him up!' roared Mr. Greeley.
'The reporter who took his girl to the
opera the night before came up. Mr.
Greeley was as white as a sheet when
the vouth backed into the sanctum.
"Did you write that article?' thund
ered Mr. Greeley, referring to the
half-column of head-lines under
which was Mr. Greeley's speech
"Yes sir,' said the reporter. 'I fol
lowed yon the best I could. You
know you spoke uncommonly fast last
night, and there was a noise and I had
to stand up.'
"Spoke uncommonly fast tfid I?"
thundered Mr. Greeley, "Young man,
you lie! I was sick last night, and
didn't go within three miles of R 's
and didn't make anv speech."
"Mr. Greeioy grabbed the retreating
form of the pencil pusher and actually
boosted him down stairs into the
street
f'The editor tried to recall tho great
edition of the Tribune, but it was too
late. He sent men all over tin city
with instructions to buy every morn
ing 2 'ribune in New York. Said he:
'Buy them at any post'
"Mr. Greeley paid as high as
50 cents a copy for some of ihe
papers, but the speech that he didn't
make was tho gossip of ajl New York
for a week. Tho ropoitor nevor dared
to show his face to Mr, Greeley after
that night. He dropped tho scribe's
pen like a boiling-hot potato aud
came west, I believe. He made a
splendid mechanic.
"On the way to tho Tribune office
every morning Mr. Greeley always
stepped into a periodical storo and
bought tho Tribune and every paper
printed in New York," continued the
reminiscent journalist "He told me
ono day that ho .always bought his
own paper when ho was within three
minutes' walk of the Tribune build
ing. He couldn't wait, as he said.
"I've seen Mr. Greeley walk into
church when the parson was praying,
making a tremendous racket as he
trudged up the aisle to a front seat,
throwing a big bundle of newspapers
into the pew and then himself. His
pew was tho next in front of mine. In
live minutes after ho was comfortably
settled among his newspapers he was
napping. People used to tell me that
the ablest preacher in New York city
couldn't keep Horace Greeley awake
of a Sunday morning."

F. W. Newell, A. W. Berry, B. S.
Worsley, and J. O. Hanthorn came
down from Portland on the 11. R
Thompson yesterday morning.
Last Saturday night the north bonn d
train on the Southern Pacific lino
came near being totally wrecked, with
a fearful loss of life. A gentleman
who was on the train at the time,
said to a Telegram reporter concern
ing the eccurrence: "We were about
two aud a half miles north of Grant's
Pass, just on a curve, running through
a canyon, skirled by Eogue river, when
the train camo to a full stop. On get
ting out I found that the pilot of the
locomotive was only four feet away
from a tree seventy feet long which
had plunged down the mountain
which was on the upper , side and
buried itself to a depth of eight feet
between the rails spreading them
about a foot Below us was a .deep
ravine, and had the train been de
scending the grade instead of climb
ing it, it wonld have been thrown
from the praok and dashed to pieces
on tho rocks far below. It was one
of the narrowest escapes I ever saw,
and the passengers all felt so thankful
j fo the engineer, that hey crowded
I ahonl him and almost mobbed him
I with .compliments for his gat and
skill. The tree must have been there
fully three hours, as it was covered
with snow. Certainly tho track
walker had not been by tho spot for
j some time. After a delay of about
j two hours, we got started and arrived
j Sunday, ten hours late."

four weeks a comploto euro was wrought,
leaving tho littlo fellow's person as white and
healthy as though ho had never boen at
attaeked. In my opinion vour valuable
iemedies saved his life, and to-day ho is a
strong healthy child, perfectly well, no rep
ctition of the disoaso having ever occurred.

Boy Covered with Scabs
My boy, agol nino ycar3. has been troubled
all his lifo with a very bad humor, which ap
peared all over his body in small red blotclios
wiih a dry whito scab on them. Last year
ho was worso than over, being covered with
scabs from tho top of his head to his feet,
and continually growing worse, although ho
had boon ticatcd by two physicians. As a
lat resort. I determined, to try thoCirricuKA
Kkv.rdiks. and am happy to say thty did
all that I could wish. Using them according
to directions, tho humor rapidly disappeared,
leaving the skin fair and smooth.and per
forming a thorough cure. Tho Cuticuka
ltRtiKDits aro all you claim for them. They
aro worth their weight in cold.
