Soldiers Work to
Save Transport.
Thirty-Frat Infantry Narrow?
ly Escapes Drowning.
Manila, Nov. 28. 7 35 p m -The
transport Ma?ane?se with Lieai Col
Webb Hayes and three companies of
the Thirty first infantry on board
has arrived here She narrowly es
caped disaster. The officers and
soldiers were for 12 days bailing
with buckets. The steamer was
unseaworthy, undermanned and short
of provisions Her engines broke
down and she rolled three days io a
typhoon.
When tbs Manauense anchored in
Manila bay this morning, 33 days
from San Francisco, there were
several feet of water in ber hold, and
400 grimy, greasy, hungry, exhaust
ed soldiers and sailors had been pass
ing puckets of water since Nov l?tb,
sight and day. First Assistant En
gineer Dunleavy was under arrest
aod according to Coi. Webb Hayes'
official report, the chief engineer
would also have been under arrest if
there had been any one to replace
him.
The colonels report also declares
that the captain of the vessel told
bim that the only thing which
brought them through was the fact that
the men were greenhorns and failed
to realize their danger, while experi?
enced seaman would have deserted
the ship aod taken to the boats in
mid ocean.
FLIES BRITISH FLAG
The Manauense is a chartered ship
flying the British flag. She belongs
to a firm of which Senator Perkins
of San Francisco is alleged to be a
junior member. The officers say the
firm bought her for ?45,000 and they
claim efforts were made to sell her
to the government for $150,000. She
started from San Francisco accom
panted by the transport Pekin, which
carried the remainder of the regiment
and encountered heavy seas to Hon?
olulu without accident After start
zing it developed that she was under
manned and soldiers bad to be de?
tailed to act as firemen, coat passers
and waiters and to do other work
Before reaching Honolulu the crew
concluded that the ship was not safi
^HQd the majority agreed to desert.
Though they were closely watched,
many of the crew succeeded in get
ting away, and the Manauense left
Honolulu with less than half ber crew.
The captain of the transport on Nov
17tb. told Col. Hayes that the
vessel had sprung a leak and an
investigation, resulted in finding
several feet of water io the hole
The steam pomps were tried but
failed to work, and there were no
"vhand pumps on board. However, 46
buckets were found, 3 others were
improvised and the soldiers not
employed in working the ship were
organized into five shifts and,
stripped and forming lines, they
began bailing, the officers work
working with the men, passing the
buckets which were- sent up to the
deck by a windlass. The longest
time a shift could stand was two
hours, and often, the period was not
longer than half an hour The bail
ing continued until the ship anchor?
ed here 1
IN UTTER DARKNESS.
The same day the leak was dis
covered the machinery collapsed, and
the electric lighting plant and evapo?
rating, distilling and refrigerating
apparatus failed to work. There
were no lamps and the few candles
found were exhausted after a few
days During the last week of the
passage the Manauense was io utter
darkness at night. She had been
rolling in heavy seas all the way. but
Nov. 22d she encountered a typhoon
and pitched and tossed alarmingly
The Pekin became separated from
the Manauense in the storm
The water rose rapidly and the
bailing force was doubled But the
buckets were gradually smashed, and
barrels and boxes were substituted
for them, the men working in dark?
ness, planks and pieces of iron shaft?
ing being violently washed among
them. The firemen could only feed
the fires by being lifted on the shoul
ders of the other men, through water
waist deep.
The typhoon lasted two days and
a half, and in the midst of it the
engines stopped The officers then
held ? council and found that there
were 420 persons on board with life
boac accommodations for 213
SING WHILE DEATH IS NEAR
Tnv the meantime the men below,
ignorant of their extreme perii. were
passing buckets and singing "What
the heil do we care," while the ship
rolled helpless on the ocean, with
hatches closed
The beat was intense until the
typhoon passed, and then the Pekin,
which bad retraced her course about |
70 miles, came alongside the Man- !
auense, which was rolling so heavily j
that the soldiers in the hold could, j
at each roll, see the Pekin through ?
the hatches overhead
Mr James S Pettit, commander of J
*ne Thirty first volunteer regiment, j
ordered toe Manauense to proceed to j
Guam and await relief, but the cap?
tain of the Manauense declined, the
officers say, because the government
was renting the ship for $500 per
day.
Throughout the remainder of the
voyage the engines of the Manauense
failed frequently and the ship would
roll for a few hours while the engines
were repairing Then the steamer
would proceed 3gain for a few hours
The meat and vegetables rotted
because of the failure of the rein's:
j erators and were thrown overboard
I After the storm, the waipr supplied
j to the ship at Honolulu had to be
j used for the boiicis and there was
j little or none for drinking
Trying to Cheapen Cotton.
New York, Nov. 30-Yesterday
the New Y'otk papers published an
j advertisement reading as follows :
j "Cotton-Immediate and sensational
1 break certain ; exports sure of crop of
11.000,000 bales ; tremendous s;ump
inevitable. Crisis has been reached
south, carrying enormous quantities
on ?lim margins, having pyramided
from 6 cents up ; short interest en?
tirely eliminated. To whom are bulls
to seil ? Market unwieldy and ur?
eafe. Sell cotton for 100 points pure
profit Further particulars, address
.Truthseeker.' "
This is followed today by another
advertisement resding :
"Cotton-My prediction of a glurop
was immediately followed by a 16
point break, showing precarious con?
dition of present market. Liverpool
and Memphis were heavy sellers
Neill, the ablest cotton expert in the
world, is more positive than ever that
yield will now exceed 11,000,000
bales. Market is honeycombed with
stop orders It is, but a question of
hours when they will be reached.
Information soon to be made public
as to cotton held by interior will send
January below 6 50 Fuil informa
tion and facts given Address
?Tru?hseeker 999
We do not know who the author of
these advertisements is, but it is ru
mored that they have been inserted
in the interests Jot a group of bucket
shops whose customers are heavy
long of the market, and whose only
possible salvation is to bring about a
break that will wipe out margins. We
think the public ought to be brought
to an understanding of the situation.
Private cables to us from Liverpool
today advise an advance there of
2 64 as a result of the good trade, j
demand and the healthy condition in
Manchester, whicb, it is stated,
promises to continue There is,
therefore, no reason why owners of
cotton should expect any lower
prices than genuiue trade conditions
justify, or be terrorized into selling
by anonymous advertisement?
