San Francisco, Oct. 24.— The Brit

arrived here from Chile, reports a
successful
raid by
Chilean coast
pirates on the German steamship
Serato in the harbor of Antofagasta
on the night of September 28. The
cutting out expedition was done al
most under the guns of a Chilean
gunboat. Pursuit was given, but the
bandits took to the hills back of A n
tofagasta and escaped.
The German merchantman was an
chored in the harbor loaded to the
hatches with a cargo an d ’ prepared
for sailing on the following morning.
Out of the darkness two dozen
pirates leaped on the vessel’s decks,
and in a twinkling the watch was
bound and gagged. The noise of the
struggle awoke the captain, who
grasped his revolver and rushed on
deck.
The pirates crept into the
shadow as the captain approached.
He was struck from behind with a
belaying pin and fell unconscious.
By this time the crew was awak
ened and as they appeared on deck
the pirates attacked them. A pitched
battle with knives followed, in which
several of the crew were badly in
jured and the remainder bound and
gagged.
The Chileans then sacked the ves
sel from stem to stern, loading their
loot on lighters they had brought with
them.
Early next day a Chilean gunboat
entered the harbor and the plight of
the Serato was discovered. A large
party was sent in pursuit of the
pirates, who had several hours’ start
and found safety in the hills.

Record Price for Pears.
Medford— The highest price yet re
alized this year for Rogue River valley
pears was reached during the present
week, when Comice pears brought
$6.60 per box. The price received is
$2.20 less than received last year, but
when the conditions of the markets are
taken into consideration the growers
feel satisfied with the result. There
are less than five cars remaining to be
shipped from this valley, the balance
