Tacoma, Aug. 19. — William Bald
win, the famous marine «liver, of Heat-
tie, wa* drowned thia afternoon while
working on the submerge«! Andelana,
198 feet undel water. It ha* been
coiiteridt-d that «liver* could not deMen I
<lea|M«r than 160 feel. Baldwin sai l he
coul«l reach the Andelana, and mail*
three dee« ent*.
On the fourth trip «lows, the terrific
air pressure broke tbe connecting
tubes to hi* pneumatic anil, and he
wa* drowned. Hi* hea«l wa* crushed
to piece* by the pressure.
Baldwin made bi* first trip to th*
bottom of < 'ummencemenl bay on the
afternoon of August 9, and broke all
previous recur«!* for deep-sea diving by
going down a little over 83 fathom*.
When he wa* drawn to th* surface, af
ter bis first descent; bis first words,
when the helmet was removed from his
suit Were: "I knew I could reach the
ship an«! 1 did."
When he went down again thi* af-
ternuon hl* asaistanls ami a few *f>ecta-
tors who were «0« the barge, which is
moore-l near where the Amlelana is ly
ing. jokingly san! g<rodbye, aa they bad
alwav* done before, amt on* of the
men at the air pump added, "We'll all
attend your funeral.” Little del they
think that that would be th* last time
llahiwln would be seen alive.
Heretofore the record for the «leepest
«live ma le under water was held by
Gunner's Mate Morgan, of the Uniteti
States cruiser Charleston, who went
below the surface of the water a dis
tauoe of 190 feet. When tilla reconl
was made, it was con*idere«l phenomen
al, ami many thought the feat iinpoa-
•ible.
Ata depth of 198 feet there is a
water pressure of 90 pound* to the
*<|iiare inch, ami a pressure of 95
pound* to the stpiare inch is necessary
to force breathiug-alr to the man be-
low the water, but thi* did not deter
Baldwin from attempting to resell the
sunken ship. In «(escribing the feel
ing expi-riemed umler 83 fathoms of
water, Bablwm said it was a paralyz
ing sensation all over the body am!
limb*, anj when Itieie would be tbe
least hitch in the airpump, the top of
his hea l «eeme<l to raise about three
feet. Ordinary garden hose wa* used
to furnish air to Bablwm. an 1 thi*
was only guaranteed to withstand a
presaute of 75 pound*, so his death can
b«> laiil only to his own carlessnes*.
Before the railing of the Andelana
could finally be successful, it wouhl be
necessary for Bablwm to go to 36 fath
om* of water, and he *eerne«i perfectly
willing to chance the «ianger. Diver
Bablwin was to receive >30.000 for hie
lalmrs if the Andelana was raise«l, but
now that he has been killed, it is
probable that the ship will continue to
lie m Commencement bay tor some
time to come.
Thi* will probably be the last at
tempt to raise the sunken ship, as
Bablwin was the only man on the
coast who wouhl even make the at
tempt to descend to so great a depth,
particularly so since the water is al
ways muddy on account of the Puyal
lup emptying into the bar at this
point.

New York, Aug. 21.—A dispatch to
the Herald from San Juan, Porto Rico,
says: Visits to tbe most distressed
districts of the island prove that the

People in the towns are huddled to

rounded by a large numlrer of hungry
people. The mayors of the towns have
received no authority to dispens«
money, but most of them are contnbut
mg generously out of their own pock
ets to supply the most urgent needs.
As far as Caguas and Cayey, the san

reports from tonus further south state
that their condition is dangerous. Th;

McConnell Beat Franey Unmercifully —
Charge of Manslaughter.
San Francisco, Aug. 21.—The au
topsy held on the remains of Jim
Franey, the pugilist, who died after
having been knocked ont by Frank
McConnell on Friday night, showed
that his vital organs were diseased;
that lie was in no condition to enter a
ring as principal, and that he had
been pommeled ami beaten to death
by Frank McConnell, who was arrested
on a charge of manslaughter, and is
now out of jail on bail.
A similar charge has also been
placed against J. J. Groom. J. D.
Gibbs, promoters of the fight; Hiram
Cook, referee, ami the seconds of boll
men engaged in the contest. All hu
given bonds an 1 are now at libert.-
Dr. J. L. Zabala, the city's antop«y
physician explains the cause of the
pugilist's death aS follows: "1 found
severe contusions on Franey'* face,
shoulder* and upper arms. There was
a hemorrhage of tbe brain on the left
side and the organ itself was in an a
anaemic condition.
The man must
have received a terrible punishment,
and death was nothing more than the
result of the blows which were rained
on bis face and head. Tbe impact of
the head on the floor had nothing to
do with it. He was in a dying condi
tion before he fell.
"Franey should never have entered
the ring. An examination of his lung*
showed pleuralic adhesions, and his
system was otherwise broken do« n. He
was tit for ptaetical purjioses in life,
but certainly not for unnatural exer
cise."
