LAKE STEAMER is BURNED
LINER ATLANTA is DESTROYED
NEAR sHEBoYGAN, WIS.
Boat and Cargo a Total Loss-Deok-
hand Drowned-All Others on
Board Rescued.

Sheboygan, Wis, March 20.-The
Goodrich steamer Atlanta, which
left this port for Milwaukee at
ten O'Clock Sunday morning, was
burned to the waters edge IL miles
south OF Sheboygan, and about five
miles out. The Atlanta is valued at.
about $150,000 and the boat and cargo
is total loss. The Atlanta left She
boygan at ten o'clock southbound with
crew of 60 men and only two pas
sengers. The fire was discovered at
11:15 by smoke from the hold and the
blaze located with great difficulty The
crew of men were set to work fighting
the flames at once and the fight was
kept up until one o'clock, when Capt.
McCauley decided to abandon the ship.
The crew and two passengers were put
off in the life boats and were picked up
by the tug Tester without trouble, as
there was no sea running. About this
time the steamer Georgia hove in sight
and relieved the Tester of her load of
passengers. The Georgia proceeded to
this port, leaving the Atlanta a total
wreck close to the beach, for which she
had been run. The origin of the fire is
a mystery to the officers of the boat,
but it is thought that 1t may have been
started by carelessly thrown cigar
But one life was lost in the wreck,
Mike Hickey, deck hand, was
drowned in trying to escape from the
flames. His home is unknown. The
fact that there was not the heavy sea
which is usual at this time of the year
doubtlessly saved many lives.
Milwaukee, March 20.-The local
board of steamboat inspectors will
make an investigation as to the cause
of the burning of the Goodrich Trans
portation company's steamer Atlanta.
An inspection was made on March -
by the board and everything at that
time was found satisfactory. In addi-
ton to the regular complement of fire
fighting apparatus the Atlanta was
equipped with automatic sprinklers.
