oHer no information as TO the scene
of the wreck. -..t--
1t was nine o'clock, nearly four
hours after the stranding Of the
steamer, that the surfman keeping the
watch from Cape disappointment
lookout tower telephoned his chief at
the main station, a quarter Of mile
away, that there was a ship in the
breakers Off Mckenzie head.
A furious gale had risen. The crew,
rounding the cape, had to fight both
storm and rising tide, SO they turned
back toward a cutoff on nearby
island. Here, too, the tide met them.
Then the keeper spied tug being
towed over the bar and asked to be
taken to the wreck. There was a
sharp refusal. So the crew renewed
its efforts singly. 1t was man and
mans humanity that gave them
strength to struggle to reach the
wreck. 1t was useless. The crew
grew exhausted. And 1t was more fight
ing to get back to the station to wait
for low tide. Noon had come when
they arrived, disheartened only as
men who spend their lives In the busi-
ness of saving other mems lives can
be when they fail.
Keeper Wicklund at Point Adams,
after receiving the word early In the
morning, had commanded all his men
to get ready for sea. With the tug
Tatoosh thorough search over the
bar was made, but the vessel was hid
den from their view and not the trace
Of mast could be seen. e91 sj
Upon their return Fort Stevens tele-
phoned that the Rosecrans had ground

lund left for Cape disappointment
station, where he tried again to reach
the ship whose three survivors could
now be seen hanging to the rigging.
| Captain Rimer met him as he pulled
In shore. Desperate now and deter
mined to save those three men cling
| ing to the mast that swayed like a
willow in the wind. the two chiefs
manned their boats and started back.
The Cape disappointment boat

but got herself into trouble by It, and
It was the Point Adams crew that sig
nailed to the half.dead men aloft to
Jump. BY continued circling the boat
got pretty close to the ruined Rose
Grams. The men on the mast were
afraid to leave It. The rescuers kept
circling closer, when, without warning,
a sea piled over their boat, It was
overturned and four Of the crew and
the keeper shot into the water. where
