and towed to Kaslo. The Idaho went on
the rocks half mile from Ainsworth at 7

bow above water and soundings taken
Immediately showed seventy-fvs feet of
water under her rudder. The steamer
Ainsworth took of the passengers and
crew. The position Of the Idafo Vas per-
ilons, and the slightest squall would have
made her total loss. In this
emergency, Capt. Shaw. who was at
the helm when the accident happened,
offered the vessel for sale at auction. She
was bought by Mr.. Alexander, of Kaslo,
for $3.50. although she cost $4,000. Scows
were placed alongside and the steamer was
raised with little difficulty. The circum-
stances will be thoroughly Investigated by
the British courts. The owners of the
vessel will probably question the validity
of the sale.
