Picked Up No Life Rats.
There were pitiful scenes at Astoria
when it was learned that the Elder had
picked up none of the Columbia's life
boats or RATS. All hope had departed
for some and they slipped away to hide
their sorrow as best they might. 1t was
only too true-the Elder had not sighted
any of the missing RATS or boats ana
had picked up none of the victims after
leaving Eureka.
1t was a curious crowd that thronged
down the gang plank. Attired in all
sorts of misfit garments, the survivors
presented an odd appearance: Every
possible demonstration of JOY of huggIng
and kissing continued for many minutes.
Some few were overcome by the excite
ment of the meeting and some women
tainted, but were soon revived. Flowers
were distributed and hot coffee and other
good things were there for the survivors
who needed them.
Dead List Is SO.
But few changes have been made in the
q
Columbia published yesterday.
The steamer officials have been in
formed that Chew Mock of Oakland, a
Chinese first class traveller who was re-
ported missing was among the saved,
Miss 3. Musser was also found to be
among those saved, instead of missing,
as at first reported.
The company has announced that the
bodies of the victims were being held
by the coroner at Eureka pending orders
from friends and relatives to have them
shipped to this city and Portland. The
remains of eastern passengers Will be
sent home by both routes.
A revised list of the passengers shows
1OS saved and II missing. Of the Off
GERS and crew 40 were saved and 16
are missing. This makes a total of 90
unaccOunted for.
Manitowoc People Investigate.
MANITOWOC, Wis, July 24.-[Spe-
cial. l-Nothing has been heard from the
two Manitowoc girls who were in the
Columbia disaster on the Pacific coast,
and the report received here yesterday
that Miss Julia Matek had been saved,
appears to be untrue.
Miss Hattie Goegden, who was among
the first reported saved, has not cOmmu-
nicated with her parents here and they
have been unable to get any word too or
from her.
Peter Schroeder, brother of Miss
Schroeder who is reported missing, left
for San Francisco this morning, and
will make a pesonal investigation relative
to the three.
Mrs. Nick Kettenhofer, a sister of Miss
Matek. is very seriously i'll as a result of
the shock.
