SAVING THE OHIO.

SEATTLE, June 5.-Advices receiv-
ed by Frank Waterhouse & Co. from
Capt. Brown, of the Ohio, stating that
the vessel would leave Nome for Seat
tie July 5, and that it would probably
take three weeks to make repairs to
the vessel after she reached port. At
the time the telegram was sent from
Nome the work of making temporary
repairs to the holes in the Ohio's bow
was reported to be progressing very
satisfactorily, although the workmen
were greatly handicapped by not hav-
ing the proper apparatus for doing the
work.
Upon the vessels arrival here she
will be put into dry dock Immediately.
II is the intention of the company to
have new plates put in the places
where the noles are, instead of having
patches put on.
