Tug and TOws Missing
SEATTLE, June 8.-The SO ton tug
Katie, owned by the Seattle towboat
company, left Seattle last Friday
morning towing three barges of brick
and gravel and has not arrived at it's
destination, Vancouver.
The Katie was commanded by Cap
tain George Kinney, a veteran navi-
gator, carried a crew of eight men and
also had on board Captain j. c. Rice
manager of the towboat company.
A launch has left Vancouver to
search for the Katie through the
islands. The Katie was built at Balti-
more in 1902 for the United States gov
ernment and is a staunch boat.
The wind was very heavy last
Saturday and Sunday and the tug may
have been blown aground. Men who
know the tug and its captain are hope
full that nothing worse than an acci-
dent to the machinery has occurred and
that the Katie has taken shelter in
cove of one of the islands.
