WRECKER'S WORK.
Old Iron From a Long
Lost Steamer.
The Scow San Pedro Brings Up Jun k
From the Winfield Scott.
Notes.

The wrecking scow San Pedro has for
some time past been engaged in work
along the South California coast under
direction Of Captain Macguen. The San
Pedro started fol- Santa Barbara with the
Intention originally of helping raise the
Gosford. She was reftted at the Fulton
Iron WORKS, and at the time work was be-
ing done on her 1t was rumored thar she
was to form the nucleus OF Sl,OO0,000
plant that was 10 be used to raise old
wrecks Strewn along the coast and also 10
be engaged in a general wreckage busi-
ness. 1t was subSe Quently denied that the
Messrs. Spreckels ct al. had any intention
of investing dollars galore in wrecKlng ap-
planes, but the San Pedro was detailed
by her owners to rescue as much ola Junk
as possible from the wreck of the ship
Golden AOrn that entashore years ago on
Santa Rosa Island.
incidentally. perhaps, Captain Macgnen
and his crew set to Work to search for the
remains of the historic old steamship Win
field Scott that lies in a cove at the cas-
end of Anacapa Island. The old vessels
remains were easily found and great deal
of r1sted machinery recovered from them.
Last week another visit was paid by the San
Pedro to the island and divers were sent
down to ascertain whether IL Is feasible to
attempt the recovery of the Winfield
SCOTS boilers, but as these sections OF
machinery were found to be too rusty and
far gone to work upon the jjb was
given up.
The Government intends al some future
time to erect lighthouse on Anacapa, so
the San Pedro's work was not frutless.
