Victoria, b. G., March 25,--Every
person on board the small wooden
steamer Sechelt when she capsized
off Beachey Head, Vancouver island,
during a gale yesterday. perished and
apparently the sea gulped down every
morsel of the vessel.
II is not known positively how
many persons were on the Sechelt
when she left Victoria for Sooke,
The prevailing report is that she de-
parted with thirty-nne, that thir-
teen of the passengers landed az
Williams Head and that twenty-five
passengers and the crew of four went
down with the boat.
OF the thirteen passengers who
landed at Williams Head, ten We're
Greeks and Italians, bound for a
railroad construction camp at Ped
dar Bay. Frank McKennel, aged a,
formerly in the United States navy,
also landed at Williams Head.
The Sechelt after leaving Williams S
Head was making direct for Sooke.
The seas were running high. The
wind was biting, hail and rain fall
ing and heavy mist prevailed. Con-
census of reports is that the vessel
was making good speed when she
suddenly swung around into the
trough Of the sea with her head
pointed IN the direction OF Port
Crescent. She hung this way for
about six minutes, lnclining to her
port side, when the wind appeared
to strike her fun broadside. She
keeled over and disappeared almost
instantly. Owing 10 weather condi-
TONS all the passengers were shut
up In the cabin and must have been
carried below when the vessel found
cred. The ship foundered mile
from shore and the intense cold and
rough water would have prevented
anyone from swimming ashore, even
If he had reached the surface,
The vessel, built for fresh water,
rolled and was top-heavy in the
wind. Large gangway ports opened
on her cargo deck and 1t is likely
that she lurched over so as to place
these ports under water.

one another threw themselves to the
ground In rapid succession. The little
girl was hurried to the New York
hospital in an automobile. She
screamed as the driver and a police
man lifted her into the hallway. A
surgeon came out. gave one look at
her face and touched her wrist.
"She is dead" he said.
One girl jumped into a horse blan-
ket held by firemen and a policeman.
The blanket ripped like cheese cloth
and her body was mangled almost be-
yond recognition.
Another dropped into a tarpaulln
held by three men. Her weight tore

bone in her body,
Almost at the same time a man

Within the building a man on the
ninth floor stationed himself at the
door of one of the elevators and with
club kept back the girls who had
stampeded to the wire cage. Thirty
were admitted to the car at a time.
They were taken down as fast as
possible.
The call for ambulances was fol-
lowed by successive appeals for po-
lice until 500 patrolmen arrived TO
cope with a crowd numbering tens OF
thousands--a mixture of the morbidly
curious and of half-crazed relatives
and friends of the victims.

Led by Fire Chief Croker, a chief
of firemen stormed the stairways and
gained access to the building at
O'Clock. Two searchlights from
buildings opposite lighted the way of
the fire fighters as they ascended
their way to the top floors.
Fifty charred bodies were found on
the ninth floor. They lay in every
possible posture, some so badly burn
cd that recognition was Impossible.
A half dozen were nude with the flesh
hanging in shreds to the bones.
Women with their hair burned

stump visible were lifted tenderly

Across the street there rested on the

this was done the bodies were carried
away in any kind of vehicle that could

were listening to a lecture by Frank

county, New Jersey. He saw the
smoke and saw the girls trapped on
the roof. He led his class to the
