twill be remembered by the seafaring
community in and about these waters
that on Jan. 2lst the British bark Lato-
ma, Capt. WATSON, bound from Callao
to this pert for cargo of lumber, ran
into the little steamer Underwater of
Point Hudson, shaking her and placing
in jeopardy the lives of her crew, com
prising her master and owner, Captain
McAllep, his son, Captain Cushing and
Engineer Harry Lott. The Latona was
running before a westerly breeze, max
ing about eight knots through the water;
the steamer was going in the same direc-
ton. keeping up to the speed of the
bark. it being the intention of Captain
McAllep to beard the bark. The Ls-
tona kept of aud ran down the steamer;
and, bad ii not been for the fortunate
approach of the tug Zip Van Wrinkle,
all on board of the Underwater would
have been drowned. Tie suit brought
by Captain McAllep and recently tried
in Seattle, to recover the value of the
steamer and for personal injuries re-
ceived, will, If won by him, make ship
masters more careful regarding the
keeping Of lookout on the forecastles
of their vessels when approaching q
harbor, and boat kept hanging at the
davits ready to lower in case of acct
dent.
