In 1877 tbe record was 2281 miles, and in 187s it rose to 2620. the largest mileage since 1873. Of this amount Minnesota built the greatest length of any State, her construction being 338 miles, while that of Massa chusetts was only six miles. A telegram, dated New York.

u. iBiv.n. 1 .1 11.11 tnthaeitvand Collision on the Day Detween Ferry Steamers THE 'EL dAftf AN' SINKS IN TWENTY MINUTES ALL TUB PABSEXCEKS MH FBBM THE UlEnS STEAM EB. lalMtam Brenckt AleagUde at HelKirs Wharf This Hernias. Since the collision oh the Central Pacific Railroad, nine years ago, which look place near Brooklyn, one foggy Sunday moraine, the residents of this city have been fortunately free from any distressing accident accompanied by serious less of life While other cities with ft large population have been visited by disasters in many shapes, San Francisco has been signally free.

Most of those who have crossed the ferries during foggy weather appreciated the dancer tun but so Well has the boat been managed ty competent officers, and such precautions taken to guard against accident that until yesterday afternoon not a single accident occurred. The fog which has hung over the bay for the past sixty hours was unusually dense yesterday afternoon, when at half-past three o'clock the steamers AlamedaiMnA Et Capita came in collision when abotit two miles from the wharf in this eiy. The fog vras so dense that objects twenty feet pff could not be distinguished from tbs deck: The Alameda left San Francisco at half-past three o'clock, with about 400 passengers on board, bound for Oakland, and the El Caption left Long Wharf, at Oakland, a few minutes earlier, with SONS 150 to 800 rABSRXSCaS on board for Ban traneiseo. The fog Whistles were kept blowing, blit it Would seem that the heavy atmosphere interfered with sounds, as when the whistles were beard the steamers were supposed to be a good distance apart, and the danger was not noticeable TTni TOO tATf TO BS AVSTft ttrderl fe given by botn Captain Brown of the Alameda, and Captain Bushnell of the El CapUan, to reverse engines, which was instantly obeyed, but the boats were too nev to be checked, and in but a few seconds from the time the steamers were seen to be approaching each other with threatening force, the bow of the Alameda struck the HI Caption between the bow and the wheelhouse, and tore away the fore part of her Underwork for twenty feet, leaving a large gap, into Which the Water rushed with overwhelming force. The Alameda stands a few lower, oh the stocks than the El Capitan, and to this is probably attributable the fact that no lives were lost, for-, when the vessels collided; the deck of the former just passed that of the latter, and thus Whilst breaking into the El Capitan she was herself uninjured, except in broken which were swept froir.

the fore part of her deck, and the loss of a couple of life boats. It was also the means of keeping tbe El Capitaft afioai much longer than she would otherwise have been, as BUS KBALLT HUH8 CrON THB BOWS OF, and was supported by, the Alameda, thus giving the pass nngers ample opportunity of passing from the sinking to the sound ship- hung in this position for teh mintite, according to the statement of some, and twenty according to others; but when it was seen that the El Caption was sinking rapidly, and was actually careening the other steamer with her weight, and it was feared that she would sink the two, orders were then given to back the Alameda and clear herself of the disabled one. TRANSFERRING THB PA88BN6BRS. The excitement on board was intense, but after the first shock waa over, all were transferred to the Alameda. Great praise is given on all sides to Captain McLaughlin, of the American ship Glory of the Seat, who was passenger on thaAldfneda.

Am soon ss the teasel had fouled, he threw off his coat, handed his watch to a friend, Captain Gray, and with the assistance of deckhands and passengers, who cheerfully obeyed the directions of McLaughlin, built a gangway from the two vessels with the broken rails, guards, etc, of tbe vessel. Supervisor Haight and Daniel McKechnie, first officer of the Alameda, both jumped overboard to rescue ladies who had jumped or fallen into the water. In doing this Mr. Haight lost both bat and coat. One of the deck-hands of the El Capitan was struck in the face by a plank which was being used in the construction of the gangway.

STATsMsKt or A rASSRsesR. Mr. W. C. Bartlett, of Oakland, makes the following statement: The 3:30 creek boat did not leave, on account of the fog, and the passengers for that boat and the regular 3:30 Oakland boat were put on board the Alameda which left tbe wharf in the densest fog I ever saw in my life.

You could hardly see naif the distance of the boat. The whistles were continually blowing and bells rung, and the boat proceeded at a moderate speed. When about one-half the distance to Goat Island whistles of the other boat could be heard, but could not be seen. A moment thereafter there was a collision of the vessels, and the fore part of the El Capitan was broken to kindling wood. Tbe concussion was not so heavy as I have often felt when a boat enters tbe slip.

I was reading in the cabin at the time, and when I came out I saw that our vessel had made a hole through the hull of the El Caption large enough to drive a horse and buggy through. She was settling very rapidly, and the safety valve was opened to let off steam. The forward boats of the Alameda and her railings were gone. The El Capitan hung on the nose of the Alameda. There did not seem to be much order about anything.

They took some of the wreck of the Alameda forward and took the passengers from the El Caption as rapidly as possible. I did not see more than four or five persons in the water or on tbe decks at any one time. In fifteen minute the El Capitan had settled pretty well down to the hurricane deck, when she floated, tbe air underneath holding her up. By this time the tug had come up and assisted in removing a few passengers. The confusion- on board the Alameda beggars all description.

I never believed I should see men or women so distracted." TBS SUNKKJf VKSSBt. After the El Capitan went down, only the walking beam and smoke-stack and wheel-houses were visible above the water, the latter just covering the npper deck, making about twenty-six feet under water. The wreck waa rapidly drifting out with the ebb tide, when the tugs Jfeptmne, Monarch aiicLKcseue undertook the delicate task of towing her to a place of safety. As the walking beam was the only thing to Which a rope could be attached the masters of the tug had to be very careful lest they tore it from the wreck. They finally succeeden in towing the wreck to an anchorage east of Black Point.

Here she remained until early THIS MORNINS, when the wreck was worked up to Meimrs' wharf, where she was attached until the next flood tide, when she was taken around the head of the wharf and run on the mud, where she now is. The wreck will be taken to Hunter's Dry-dock as soon as possible. TBE REVISTBATIOX. Meeting of the Election CoktaBalssiwaers he I sed. Ward Beglsters to The full Bnard of Election Commissioners met yester day.

Mayor Bryant presiding. After some two hours' discussion, tbe following resolution was passed: Retained, That the printed Ward Registers in nsa for the special election held in June, 1878, for the election of Delegates to the Constitutional Convention, shall be usea as tne negistars ror tne special election to be held in May next, and that all persons who were not on the said Registers, and who may be entitled to vote, and all persons who have changed their residences since said election, must get re-registered on or before the 21st of April, or otherwise they will forfeit the right to vote. It was also decided to advertise the above resolution. and a notice supplementary to it, in seven of the daily papers. STATEMENT AS TO RXSIDKXCB.

People who keep savage dogs on their premises, with out the animals are securely chained, are worse brutes than the curs they harbor, and should bs punished with the utmost severity. Many vicious dogs are kept. which, on seeing a child or grown person pausing them quickly or suddenly, will attack those so passing them. The very best remedy is for those who are able, to summarily administer Governor Dix's medicine and shoot the dogs on the spot, and cause the immediate arrest of their owners for allowing a dangerous animal to run at barge. Cases of injury caused by vicious curs are constantly occurring.

Mr. Kaufman objected to star-cbamber business in a reform party, and said that be would withdraw if it was persisted in. He said that there were hundreds of workingmen outside waiting to hear the testimony.

Mr. Jackson said that he thought the Committee was merely appointed to hear testimony and report the same to tne noara 01 warn rresiaents, ana tney to THB STATS ItXEXCTIVS COMitlTTSS, which was the only body that could remove Mr. Wel-lock.

sir. Aaufman said that the question was a very im portant one, because by it he thought he could show that the charges were simpl tbe result of a CONSPIRACY TO INJURS WM. WKLLOCK. The Chairman ruled it out as irrelevant. Mr.

Kaufman said that tf be bad been allowed to show up the conspiracy the charges would then be dis- missea. lie oojectea to wmtewasning the business over.
