Years Point and thrown upon Wad-
dells Beach. all within mile Of each
other. not one had been prepared for
a launching. The oars and the hooks
were found inside them in place as
when resting on the hurricane deck.
The story Of provision boxes being
dashed upon the RATS as they. came
tumbling from the breakers is an ab-
solute myth. Three cans Of biscuits
and water keg came ashore separate
" and were those usually kept in a
life raft on the deck.
PANAMA IN BIG STORM
J From Halfmoon Bay TO Santa Cruz
great relief is felt tonight now that
the facts have been ascertained. True
the City OF Panama must have had
terrible struggle with the elements, but
small justification is given for fears Of
disaster. Seas that would tear away
the lashings OF the life RATS must have
oeluged the vessel with awful force,
but as Captain Anderson said, If the
machinery held together there was no
reason why the City OF Panama could
not weather the gale.
All day long the shore has been
scanned over and over again from
Halfmoon Bay TO Santa Cruz, but not
q sign OF wreckage was discovered
other than the four life rats.
II was undoubtedly on New Years
eve and morning that the City Of Pan
anna encountered the fercest weather
She stood far out, and the life RATS
were carried by Pigeon Point and New
Years Point by the great swell that the
formation Of the coast TURNS IN a south
easterly direction, and landed upon the
'Iow-lyfng rocks Of Waddells Beach. In
that terrible roll OF the sea whatever
wreckage there might have been would
undoubtedly have come ashore by this
time and in that vicinity.
WRECK REPORT DENIED
The lightkeepers at New Years and
Pidgeon Points declare that they do
not believe there has been wreck.
They have neither seen nor heard dis
tress signals, have watched in vain
<or wreckage. and are not easily con-
WINGED that the City, OF Panama could
be worsted by a storm.
Il have neither seen nor heard any
