CAUSED BY A STOWAWAY
BUT FOR HIS CRIES THE ISLANDER

Sailors Heard Him, Opened the Com

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 20.-J. T. Snyder.
a resident of Juneau, arrived on the steam
er Farallon to-day from Juneau. Mr.. Sny-
der was on the lost Islander. was in the
water three hours clinging to a raft, and
was finally picked up unconscious. He left
the boat half minute after the captain

to the same raft for fully an hour. The
captain said he could not understand why
the boat went down quickly, and finally
said: Boys, cannot stand II any longer. "
and casting his life preserver away, at once
sank.
At the inquest at Juneau, which Mr. Sny-
der attended, evidence developed which may
tend to excuse the captain for not beaching
the steamer at once. Mr. Snyder said:
''The pilot testified that he was on the
bridge, and that as soon as she struck ne
told the captain he was going TO beach her,
but the captain said: No, there Is a better
place about three miles from here and she
Will asily float that long.
The testimony showed that there was a
stowaway in the forward water-tight
compartment When the vessel struck the
iceberg the water rushed in on him, and
his loud cries Immediately under the sail
ors' quarters caused them to rush down
and thoughtlessly open the compartment.
which allowed the to come rolling into
the hold. carrying the body of the stow
away with 1t. This was done without the
captains knowledge. and / think excuses
him for thinking the vessel would float
several hours, which 1t would have done
had the water-tight compartment not been
opened. 1t was established that If the
pilot had carried out his intention he could
have got her on the beach without the loss
OF any lives except that of the stowaway."
