CHEER BRYAN ATHISGEN MEETING
Commoner's Name BringsTremendous Applause
From Audience.
Despite the absence of WilliamRandolph Hearst, the meeting ofthe Independence party st Dream-land rink iasf night waa attendedby an audience that crowded the,big auditorium to the doors, anxiousto see and bear Thomas 1. Hlsgen, Ipresidential nominee and trustbusier, and anticipating, perhaps,more sensational letters. Hut Itwas not a Hearst meeting. Oncein a while an admirer of ibe letter- jreading editor grew mildly enthu-siastic, but It was not until thenam* of Bryan sprung from 'In !lips of 11. VV. Knickerbocker, tho jreat spell binder of the evening,that irsre was any show of enthu-siasm.
Mr. Knickerbocker, who It fromRawhide. Nev.. and who hat a flow jof words like the meltfluous .Inkle jof a mountain brook—to us* oneof his own figures—and who denied ja story that he was In the employof Mi Hearst by declaring that honever worked but eleven days In
his entire life, said:'I ... to you that if Mr. Hry-

Democratic denial of any Intentionto turn the Henrst-Hlsgen meeting
Into a Hryan demonstration wasdisproved In an Instant In a dozenplaces the yell leaders sprang tntheir feet and for fully five min-utes the cheering continued with-out check.
Mr. Knickerbocker was caughtwith hit hand In the air In a grace-
ful gesture of emphasis. When thsapplause subsided, hit said: _^**•''
"Your spplsuto is 'testimony ofyour loyalty.' Hut I would say thatJf cither the Democratic or Repub-lican hinders stood for Ihe prin-ciples of tho Independence, fajrty,tbey should havo my support,'-.' -
Later Mr. Knickerbocker men-tioned tho name of Tsft and pausedtho fraction of a second for ap-plause, but It was not forthcoming.

DARING WORK OF CREWPREVENTS LOSS OF LIFE
Passengers Are Forced to Flee From Cabins. LeavingTheir Baggage Behind, to Escape
Onrush of Flames.
Awakened by dense clouds of pungent smoke which poured In onthem, M passengers on tbe steamer Ctopl* had s bad quarter of sahour st 4:40 this morning while the ere* fought the flames, which, forA tew moments, threatened all on board with a horrible death.
Thn fin- broke out In th* galley, and, like a flash, shot ii| -lisStairway lo the women's cabin. There was a wild scramble to thsdeck, with no thought of baggage or possessions. Passengers In th*staterooms barely had time to get Into their clothing. Two dogs Is •basket In a stateroom were forgotten nnd burned to death.
Crew Well Drilled.The crew of the boat wen- well drilled, and the captain Immediately
headed the steamer fur the shore to get oat of the strong wind blowingacross tie. Sound. -ji,,, passengers were mustered on the forward deck,out of the way of the crew, who were busy fighting the fire with ap-paratus carried on the vessel. Captain Drlsko and Chief EnglnoerRmith were severely burned nbout the hands and face, hut they gottbe fire under control, Snd In half sn hour 'l.c- boat proceeded to pier Iunder her own steam, landing her passengers safe and sound.
Women on Board.
The Utopia It a wooden vessel of <_•('. tons burden, snd was formerlyused In the Alaska trade. At th. Hue of the accident she had on boardSkoal 10 passengers, a large number of til,., were women, and to th*promptness and coolness of the crew alone Is due the fail that a dis-astrous panic did not ensue. Damage to the vessel and baggage oftbe i .vsseugers Is estimated at 12.W0. Hhe will be repaired at once and
'resume ber run ss soon at possible."I was awakened by tbe loud shrieks and cries of the women and
found my stateroom, which adjoined the ladles' cabin, filled with thick,| great smoke, which nearly suffocated me. I at once put on a skirt |and had to climb through a window to the deck. If I had not gottenout lien I sun ly would have suffocated." said Miss Clara Kdwards,of Anacorics, st tin- Northern hotel this morning, telling of the fire.The smoke which she Inhaled has affected her throat and she spokewith great difficulty.
tost Their Wrapt.
"The women who slept In the ladies cabin lost oil their wraps,bats, grip* and other belongings, they having been awakened by tbofirst Hate of ihe flame which burst up through the companion way. Twovaluable puppy dogs belonging to a lady passenger were suffocated.They bed been placed In a basket and in the excitement that followedwere forgotten until too late.
"The officers and men cannot be praised too much for their heroicswork. How th. crew tame out alive from that thick smoke and thoflames 1 cannot tell. Life boats were made ready as stum as the fir*
I was discovered, but were not used Tbe captain ran the boat on th*, beach and we were all given life preservers In case of necessity. Aftertbe fire »a* out we were given every attention, the officers providingus with blankets and coffee.
Suffers From Shock.
"The Princess Victoria stopped out in the stream, but proceeded,on her way after the flit- had been put out I am suffering from thashock of tt yet; It wss such -role work on the part of the crew thstsaved our lives. Tbey cannot be given too much credit It Is also luckythat the t'tupia carried only a few passengers, at there would bar*been a dreadful panic One little girl lost her mother and ran wildlyabout, and then, all of a sudden, ran for the edge of the ship. I don'tknow whether tbe waa gold*. to jump In or had become blinded."
