STEAMER SINKS AND
 MANY ARE DROWNED
One of the Most Appalling Marine Disasters Ever Occurring on
 the Pacific Coast.

Port Townsend, Wash, Aug. 19.-The steamer Queen ha, just arrived from the north. bringing news of one of the most appalling marine disasters on the Pacific coast.
 The steamer Islander, sailing from Skagway on August IA, when nearing the southwest end of Douglass Island. at a. m.. August 15, and running at full speed. struck a floating iceberg, and. in less than twenty minutes. went to the bottom of the deep channel, car rying men. women and children to wa tery graves.
 The Islander had 1os passengers, and all Of them were in bed when the ves- sel struck. The shock was so severe that many were thrown from their berths and the widest excitement pre- vailed. Word was. soon passed that the vessel was doomed, and a general scramble for the life-boats. ensued many jumping overheard and attempt ing to swim ashore, the distance being short. In the scramble to get into the boats many were hurled headlong into the chilly water. which. according to passengers arriving from the scene, seemed alive with human beings.
 Before all the passengers had left the vessel. she gave lunge and went down bow first. It Is known that sixty-seven lives were lost.
 It will be some time before their names can be definitely learned, as the purser lost his passe nger list.
