COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETS

The Commercial Club held a special meeting last evening at the Council Chambers for the purpose of listening to the re- bort of committee appointed al the last regular meeting to look into the matter of @ Car nival. The committee reported that the business men were gen
 erally taking hold of the pro- position with a great deal Of
 enthusiasm and that a paper cir
 culated among some of them had reached the amount of sev.
 en hundred and twenty dollars This was thot by the committee to be generous showing be-
 cause of the fact that there were several of the larger con-
 cerns to contribute yet, and the
 subscription would doubtless N- mount to one houSand dollars
 or better when everybody had
 contributed his mite. The com mittee recommended that the club go ahead with the program and employ Fred PurintOn to take charge of the entire ara
 arrangements and give his whole | time to the details. The report
 of the committee was favorably received and motion passed increasing the membership Of the committee to five instead of three and giving the entire eveR sight of the Carnival into it's
 charge.
 The members of the commit
 tee are D. ". Hunt, chairman;
 c. $. Blake, Secretary
 Harvey Stackpole; E, c, Austins

 An experienced engineer has been secured and sent to the West Coast to relieve Fred purinton on the Little Glory, who will return and get things under way at once.

CITY OF SEATTLE
 GOES ASHORE

In a thick and impenetrable fog, the steamer City of Seattle piled up on Charcoal point at two o'clock this morning, and
 was left high and dry by the re- Iceding tide. It appears from what those awake on the boat
 at the time say that as the ves- sel entered the north end of Tongass narrOws, the night was clear and all was well. The light on Channel island was plainly seen and the vessel was put on her regular course. Af-
 ter proceeding less than two miles however Q thick blanket .of fog came up the narrows, shutting out the sight of every thing. The boat was slowed down, and slowly she made her way along. Evidently those in command thought she was further along than she really
 was and she was turned in to- ward where they supposed the
 town lay. It was too soon by fully a quarter of a mile for the turn, and the pile up on the .Deach followed.
 The vessel struck on the eX-
 treme high tide, which was
 several inches higher than any
 other for several weeks, and un Jess she can be gotten off this afternoon or tomorrow morn- ing. she will probably remain
 where she is for some time. All day today she has been the
 Mecca to which almost every
 body in the town has gone,
 most of them armed with a camera of some kind.
 She has a cargo of 1 ,000 cases of canned salmon, 5000
 from Barron's cannery at Fun
 ter bay, and 5000 from Myers & Co.'S. An effort was made this morning to get the salmon
 off the vessel, and in the neigh
 lOrhood of 5000 cases were un loaded, which is hardly enough probably to float her off. One thing ill her favor is the fact that sine was almost stopped al The time she struck so she did mot run i'll far on the beach. Captain Thomas Johnson is in command of the Seattle. A
 mong those coming to Ketchi-
 kan on the steamer were L. E.
 Buell., the travelling salesman,
 end Mrs. II. L. Faulkner, who was coming to join her hus-
 band Marshal Faulkner at this point. They were both landed in the ships boat.
 Later-At 2:40 this after noon the Northland pulled the
 Seattle out of her bed in the sand and she came in under her
 own steam.
