The San Francisco call., 1909-11-20

jured. 1t happened at the Santa Fe
wharf, where the State ran alongside
to discharge some freight. The scow
was moored ahead of the berth into
which Captain Hall was trying to warp
his steamer. The vessel was alongside
the wharf, but not in exactly the right
place and Captain Hall signaled to the
engine room for half speed astern.
The engine room responded with
half speed ahead. Captain Hall imfne-
diately called attention to the mistake
and rang for full speed astern. In
stead he got full speed ahead and in a
few seconds the State of California had
crashed its way 80 feet through the
hull and complicated machinery of the
scow.
1t was a spectacular smash. Over
the machinery on the scow was
shingle covered shed. 1t was un-
At the same time the shed was knocked
into the aspect known as galley west"
tank containing liquid fuel was con-
verted into shapelesS junk and there
followed a general arrangement of the
scow and everything on it.
The damage is estimated at about
$4,000. If the scow had not been in the
way and the same mistake had hap
pened on the State of California the
steamer would probably have hit the
Second street bridge. The State
escaped with two long scratches in the
paint, one on each bow.
Brings UnwieIdy Tow to Port
The tug Hercules, which arrived here
yesterday from Grays Harbor with the
dredger Coronado in tow, completed
difficult task without a hitch. AS
tow there is probably nothing afloat
any more unwieldy than the Coronado,
and the weather at this tinfe of year is
usually such as TO add greatly to the
difficulties of ocean towing. The Hercu-
les, however, is more than ordinarily
powerful and the voyage was made in
good time and without mishap. The
Coronado is owned by the North Ameri-
can dredging company snc has come
here to do some work for tie Southern
Pacific. Before beginning work, how
ever, the Coronado will be aid up for
alterations and general ogerhauling.
