FLOATING THE COLORADO.

SEATTLE, Sept "a heavy list
to port developed when the deck was
being filed, and caused considerable
difficulty in floating the cruiser Colo
rado, just repaired after going
aground at Liplip Point yesterday at
ternoon. Fifteen feet Of water was
taken into the dock shortly before 5
o'clock. A close examination OF the
hull was made to ascertain whether or
not any Of the newly adjusted plates
leaked. The examination led the
officers to believe that everything was
satisfactory and water was allowed TO
come into the dock. As the ship M
ted from the keel block she sank on
her port side. The water was shut
off and an attempt was made TO tell
where the trouble was
AT s o'clock the ship was still IN a
dangerous position and the tide had
begun to. run out, With the vessel
off the keel blocks it was necessary
to get the ship out at once or serious
injury to the hull or the dock might
have occurred with the dropping Of
the tide. A line was passed to the
yard tug Pawtucket and the cruiser,
careening from side to side, was tow
ed into deep water. As the ship did
not right herself, when in deep water,
she was moored at pier six A diver
will be sent down early tomorrow
morning to examine the hull. It is
thought that one Of the new plates on
the port side leaks.
