vessels around the impossible rapids

ed in the lock which was wrecked
Wednesday when the stearneriPerry G.
Walker OF the Gilchrist feet rammed
her bow through the lower gate.
The upper gates were open when
the Walker crushed open the lower
gates and the tremendous power OF
the rapids vas given instant play. The
steamer Assiniboia, d big Canadian Pa
cifie passenger liner. moored within
the lock chamber, was torn away from
her moorings. Riding on the crest OF
the flood, she jamned the Walker
from her path, the Assiniboia's port an.
Choir ripping a hole in the Walkers
side. The liners engine crew put on
full steam ahead IN a desperate en-
deavor to give the big vessel Storage
way, and, with her wheelsmen battling
70 overcome the swirling currents, the
Assiniboia swept into the open reaches
of the river below. The Assinibcia's
cargo shifted, and this gave her a con-
siderable list. and several plates on
her port side forward OF a~midships
were loosened. The Walker was whifi.
ed around several times. and finally
landed on a shoal out Of the channel.
