The River Strainer Vletorlne Bought
nt Public Sale by Rourke & Sons,
AVho Will Thoroughly Overhaul
Her—Rules Relative to Association
Vessels in the Coal Trade-Matters
of Interest to Shippers nnd Slnr
inern.
The river steamer Vidorine, formerly
owned by George O. Howe, was sold yes
terday to satisfy claims in favor of par
ties who libeled her recently. She was
bought by James Rourke. for John Rourke
& Sons, for 3140, which is considerably
less than the aggregate claims against
her.
The Vlctorlne Is 54 feet In length, and
‘“ feet beam. She has a 20-liorse power
engine. Though a very small craft, she
affords a few accommodations for passen
gers, and has a small freight carrying
capacity. Her troubles began when
Florence Huertas, her engineer until the
libel was instituted, took steps to collect
back wages. This brought in all the cred
itors, whose claims footed up nearly 3350.
The owner odmitted the claims, or a part
of them to be due, and consented that the
vessel be sold, whereupon an order to
this effect was issued in the United States
Court.
It is the intention of Rourke & Sons to
overhaul the steamer, and she was towed
to their wharves yesterday for this pur
pose. While in possession of her former
owner, she was use*) In oyster dredging,
and in towdng on a small scale.
A'esselH in Cul Trade.
At a recent meeting of the Vessel Own
ers and Captains’ National Association,
in Boston, it was voted to put into effect
coal changes adopted at the annual meet
ing of the association, whereby a vessel
of said association shall have precedence
over all other vessels engaged In tha
coastwise trade, whether steamers, sail
ing vessels or barges. A committee was
appointed to determine when this is to
go into effect after consultation with the
coal shippers. It was also voted that the
association bill of lading for discharging
would go into effect on all charters sub
sequent to May 1. The bill provides for
discharging at the rate of 150 tons per day
up to 1,000 tons capacity, 250 tons perdtay
for all vessels over 1.800 tons capacity.
Otherwise the conditions are the same as
have been In existence for the last four
teen years.
Pilots Considering Chnnae*.
The pilots of the Delaware river and bay
are considering the question of making
some changes in section 14 of the pilots'
regulations, which permit incapacitated
members to retire on half pay. It is be
lieved that the change will be made to re
duce the allowance. Three pilots atv now
on the list, and there are indications of
an Increase in the number.

SOME GHOSTLY EXPERIENCES.
An Apparition That Appeared o a
Woman at New- Orleans.
From the New York Time#
"It wasn’t a ghost, for I saw her as
plainly as I ever saw any one in my life,”
said the little woman, with the soft South
ern accent, who Is making her home now
In New Y’ork. "And there Is no story to
tell about It, for it is nil absolutely true.
It was when I was not much more than a
child living In New Orleans nt the time of
one of the yellow fever epidemic*-.
“There had come to New Orleans some
time before a young English girl, whom
we can call Isabel Brown. She was a
beautiful girl, with golden hair, big blue
eyes, and a tine complexion. She showed
by her general appearance that she was of
a good family, and the woman who was
with her, a much more common-looking
woman, whom she railed her mother, wo
always believed to be her nurse. That v.e
never knew, but we met them, nnd my
mother was Interested in Isabel, and she
was frequently Invited to our house and
became somewhat Intimate with my older
slstSh.
"At the time of the outbreak of the yel
low fever we had not seen her for some
time, though we had heard that her
mother had gone 1o assist her. I was
always delicate, and nt that time I was 111
enough to be eontlned to my room part of
the time and receive a goo I deal of care
from my mother, In New Orleans we have
what we coll galleries, though you would
call them balconies there, and there was
one on the side of our house opening Into
the yard, and the door and window of my
room opened on to this gallery. I was In
my room and In bed, perfectly wide
awake, when suddenly come one pulled
aside the mosquito bar from the bed—
we always have testers to the bods, and
the mosquito b;.r, or net. ns you say, over
It and there 1 saw Isabel Brown.
"I shall never forget how beautiful she
looked. She was n beautiful girl, anyway,
but this Ume she looked unusually lovely.
She was in her white night clothes, her
long hair was flying around her. her
cheeks were flushed, and she looked like
an angel. She called to me three times:
“ 'Lizzie! Lizzie! Lizzie! I want you,’
and then she was gone.
“I was not at all frightened any more
than I would have been If she had been
really there. I had none of the feeling
that one would have in seeing a spirit,
and she did not have the appearance of a
spirit. But I knew that she was not In
our house, and I felt that something must
be the matter. My mother came to ray
room a few minutes later and I said to
her:
’* Mother, Isabel Brown is either dead
or dying,’ and I told her about It. She
wouldn't believe it—she didn’t have any
faith in anything of that kind—she
thought I was visionary, but I was cer
tain that something had happened to Miss
Brown. A gentleman who came to ou:
house that night told my mother that he
believed Isabel’s mother had died of the
fever and he understood that Isabel had
gone to a certain address which he gave,
and my mother decided to go there the
next morning and inquire. I wanted to go.
too, and we went. We never felt any fear
of the fever. It seems to follow some fam
ilies, and they have a death every time it
comes, hut we had never had It.
"We reached the house, and there was
something very quiet about It, as if some
thing might have happened. My mothe:
asked after Isabel, and it was as I felt
sure it would be.
“ ‘lsabel died last night,’ her friend said,
and we have just come from burying her.’
People are burlid very quickly when they
die of the fever. 'Have you a daughter
named Lizzie?' she continued to my moth
er. ‘She was calling for her last night.’
” ’lt was just a little
fore she died. She Jumped out of bed and
rushed cut of the room and called "Lizzie!
Lizzie! H want you.” She looked like an
angel in her white night dress, with her
long hair hanging around her, her b g blue
eyes and flushed cheeks, and she was so
anxious to go to Lizzie that In the de
lirium of the fever it took several of us
to gt t her back to bed. As soon as we.dld,
the last symptoms of the disease set In
and she died Immediately.’
" ‘Y es.’ said my mother, 'and my daugh
ter saw her just as you have described
her, and told me about it.’ It was a little
before 8 when I had seen her.
"I have always wondered what she
could have wanted me for I was younger
and she was more a friend of my sister,
and I knew her very little except as I
saw her in the house. But one thing I
have thought might have been on her
mind. I have understood that there were
some medals, or something of that kind,
which had been awarded to her father,
who, it was said, had been a physician in
England, and they should have been re
turned there. I was my mother's business
woman. I did her marketing and write
most of her letters for her. And I have
thought that perhaps Isabel, knowing
this, had wanted to come to me to ask me
to do something about returning those
medals or write some leiters fer her.
“I don't think I am superstitious,though
I know that some dreams mean something
to me, and that diamonds always bring
me trouble, and I dreamed of them twice,
and woke scr amlng with terror before
my husband died.
“Something rather strange happenod
while I was 111 after that In my mother
in-law’s house, though I was delirious at
the time and do not remember It. It was
in relation 10 a telegram which my moth
er-in-law received, telling her of the
death of a young relative who had com
mitted suicide. It was a sad case, and
she thought It would be best not to tell
anyone of It. She came into my room,
where nny mother was taking rare of me,
soon after, and my first words to her
were?
" 'lt was too bad, wasn’t It? He was so
young.'
“ ’Why. what do you mean?' she said.
“ 'The young man who committed sui
cide.' I answered. ‘Didn't you receive a
telegram?'
“ 'Yes.' she said. ‘I did, but I didn't tell•
anyone about It.’
“I was delirious at tile time, nnd I didn't
1 n w about it until she told me aflerwa and
All these things have corr.c to me when I
have been under some particular stress
or Illness of seme kind. If I have any pe
culiar powers I don’t know anything
about It any more than I know what has
happened, and there was some meaning
to It all."

No estimate can be made of the quant
ties of debris washed down by this pro
cess. The evil results are visible In thou
sands of acres of fertile valley lards deep

waters of the state is seriously curtailed.
In 1819 the Sacramento river was a clear
and limpid stream navigable for vessel
drawing seventeen feet of wnter as far in
land as where the city of Sacramento now
stands and for 200 miles furiher for ves

steameis and barges drawing not over
throe and one-half feet can navigate the
river at summer stages to Re c r run onto and

in 1849 extended to Sacramento, has con
