FATAL COLLISION BETWEEN TWO PUGET SOUND STEAMERS
CAUSES "A TERRIBLE CALAMITY -0N[y 80 PEOPLE SAVED
STEAMER DIX CRASHED INTO STEAMER
JEAN|E, SINKING ALMOST IMMEDIATELY

Associated Press 10 The Evening Tinea.
Seattle. Wash, Nov. 19.-The steam
er Dix, Captain Plermon, bound from
Seattle to Port Blakely with passen-
gers, sank two miles north OF Alki
Point shortly after Z o'clock last
night after having collided with the
steamship Jeanie, Captain P. H. Mason
of the Alaska Coast company. Forty
one passengers and members of the
crew of the Dix a~e missing and
thirty-nine were saved. The Dix is
total wreck. The Jeanie was not in
jured in the least and no member of
her crew was lost. The master of
the Dix was saved. The collision oc-
Cured while the sound was almost
as smooth as a mill pond and after
the boats had been steaming within
sight of each other for quarter of
an hour.
The Jeanie was backing when she
collided with the Dix, and the impact
was very slight. The Dix was struck
abaft of amidships on the starboard
side. She listed heavily to port for
a brief period, righted herself, then
sank stern first.
There was hardly time to launch
the life RATS or boats before she was
almost entirely submerged. Passen-
gers jumped from the decks into the
water, women screamed and officers
and men called orders that could
hardly be heard above the din. The
passengers from the Dix who could
swim made their way to the sides of
the Jeanie and were dragged aboard.
The Jeanie was not moved until after
all who had reached her had been
hauled aboard. Then she cruisei
about picking up several who had

The county superintendent contro-
very took on new turn today when
application was made before Judge
Fisk at Lakota for directing injunc-
tive order requiring the beard OF can
vassers to issue the certificate of elec-
tion to w. r. A. Calder, the republican

managed to stay above water. 1t was
after 10 o'clock before the Jeanie left
the scene Of the catastrophe and
steamed to the Virginia street dock,
Seattle, with her thirty-nine sur
vivors.
The Jeanie, of the Alaska Coast
comapny, had finished unloading at
the Great Northern docks at Smiths
Cove and had started for Tacoma
shortly before o'clock just about the
same time as the Dix left the flyer
dock for Port Blakley. There were
no passengers on the Jeanie. The
Dix was making her last trip of the
night and was we'll filled with pas
sengers. When within about two miles
north of Alki Point the two steamers
we're within short distance of each
other steaming along converging
lines.
The captain Of the jeanie says he
signalled for the Dix to pass him and
his whistle was answered. The Dix
was then within speaking distance Of
the Jeanie and to the port Of her.
Suddenly Mate Dennlsan. who was as
the wheel of the Dix, put her hard
over to starboard as If to cross in
front of the other vessel Captain
Mason Of the Jeanic, who was on the
bridge. saw that an accident was i'm
minent and called out a warning to
the man at the wheel OF the Dix.
Captain Mason gave a signal to re-
verse his engines and his vessel was
slowly backing away when they came
together There was but slight
crash, the force OF the collision from
the Dix coming against the side of th.
larger vessel, and not that oi the
heavier craft against the smaller.

For a minute all Was still, then
panic followed. When the Dix started
to sink, stern first, the passengers
and members Of the crew leaped into
the sound. Some OF the passengers
huddled together in groups on the
deck while others knelt in prayer.
Women who had little chance for thei.-
lives, stayed with the sinking steamer
and were drowned as in trap.
Captain Plermon of the Dix was
among those picked up out of the
water by the crew of the Jeanie. He
said:
II don't think the vessel was very
badly damaged by the collision. 1t

that caused her loss. She filled with
water as soon as she went over and
took her down.
