Death and honors mark troubled voyage and port news
Reports recount Commodore Perry era tensions with the Japanese monarchy and a U S squadron in Canton and Whampoa harbors as ships prepare to sail. A banquet at the Revere House honors Captain Watkins of the San Francisco for six days of endurance, with speeches praising rescuers and critics. Bread trade figures show European exports from multiple ports, while a deadly Randolph murder suicide shocks Massachusetts. Sudden law shifts and fugitive cases appear, including Maryland liquor restrictions and a British extradition on the Pacific.
