Another attempt may yet be made to
rescue the steam collier San Pedro, which
went ashore near Victoria nearly two
years ago. This time the Moran Bros.
of Seattle have taken the matter in
charge, and if they find that it will be
worth while to try and save the San Pc
dro, they will make one final effort to do
so. The Southern Pacific Railroad Com
pany, which is the owner of the San
Pedro, has, it is said been in correspond
ence with the Moran Bros. for some time.
The company is anxious that the San
Pedro shall be saved. She cost nearly
$3.50, 900, and it will be heavy loss to
the company if she is not recovered.
However, the company does not care to
spend lot of money in removing the
collier from her present quarters and
then find that she has been down so
long as to become absolutely worthless.
In order to determine her value the
Southern Pacific has arranged with the
Moran Bros. to make personal inspec-
ton of her.
