The Bonanza CAME Go,o Alaska

San Francisco. April 1s.-Strenuous ef-
forts are being made to keep aiioat the
schooner Bonanza, which is moored at
Man street pier. The Bonanza was re-
Gently overhauled on the Merchants dry
dock and fitted out for an Alaska trading
expedition. valuable cargo of perish
able supplies was placed in her hold after
she left the dock. but the day before she
was to sail 1t was discovered that the
vessel was leaking. The water was rising
IN her at the rate of two inches an
hour. Although thorough EXAM
nation of the hold was made, the
leak could not be found. and It was de-
cided to send her to sea anyhow, taking
the risk of getting her to Alaska safely
rather than losing heavily on the cargo by
unloading 1t and permitting it to spoil.
The schooner was to have sailed today,
but late last night 1t was discovered that
the leak in the vessels hull was widened
and the water was pouring in at the rate
of ten inches an hour. The idea Of sending
the schooner TO sea was then abandoned
and all efforts were conferred on keeping
her from going to the bottom and in saw
ing as much of the cargo as possible.
