brought the survivors to, Seattle.
Eight OF the lost were members OF
the crew and three were passengers.
The steamship company says three
were the only passengers lost. On tho
Princess Victoria the SIMPSONS pur.
ser called the roll Of passengers as
made up by him and six persons did
not respond. However, the list may
have been inaccurate.
The Princess Victoria took off most
of those on board the Sampson while
the vessels were still locked. The
Princess Victoria did not pull loose I'M
til the Sampson was about to 90 down.
The Victoria, running IS knots an
hour, hit the Sampson abaft of the
beam at about a quarter angle. On her
arrival she showed a large hole in her
bow and she has been laid up for re-
pairs. The revenue cutter Unalga,
from Port Townsend, Is cruising about
in the vicinity Of the accident seeking
bodies.
Capt. Moore of the Sampson directed
the rescue Of the passengers. The
Sampson dived to the bottom, bow
foremost.
Capt. Moore ran to the stern and
waved his hand as he was carried down
with his ship.
Many of the SIMPSONS passengers
were asleep at the time Of the acct
dent and were rescued only partly clad.
Some Of the passengers and crew
jumped overheard and were picked up
by the Victoria's life boats.

although he recovered from the Bit
terness engendered in the four years
of strife he regarded himself as an
alien in the restored Union. and re.
fused to vote or to exercise any of the
duties Of a citizen.
when the war with Spain broke
out, however, the old fire burned in
his eye, and he offered no objection
when his son, a stalwart specimen of
young manhood, Joined the national
army and went to Cuba to fight.
"One day, after the battle Of San
Juan, the young man received a letter
from him.
"'Well,' he said thoughtfully, after
reading it, father is back in the Union
at last" .
"'Does he say so?' he was asked.
"'Not exactly, but he might az we'll.

PASS WAR INSURANCE BILL
House Puts Stamp Of Approval on Act.
Senate Probably Will Concur in
Two Amendments Made.

WASHINGTON. - The administration
bill to create a federal bureau of war
risk marine insurance, with a $5,OOO,-
900 fund to meet possible losses to
American shipping was passed In the
house by a vote Of 230 to So. The meas
ure has already passed the senate.
The house. made two amendments to
the measure as 1t passed the senate.
One limits the operation of the gov
eminent wal risk insurance bureau to
two years, the president having power
to suspend it at any time within that
period. The other reduced the salary
of the chief of the bureau from $4,000
to $4,000. The senate is expected to
concur in these amendments and the
bill probably will be ready for the
presidents signature when he returns
here next week from Cornish, N. H.
The bill establishes for the first
time in American history a federal
marine insurance, though it is restrict
ed to risks Of war and especially ap-
plicable to the European emergency.
It insures American vessels, their
freight and passenger money and car
goes whenever 1t shall appear to the
secretary of the treasury that Ameri-
can vessels are unable in any trade to
secure adequate war risk insurance on
reasonable terms"
It is intended as supplementary to
war risk insurance furnished by pri-
yate concerns, who claim they have not
enough capital to give complete wal
risk insurance.
