EASTLAND CALLED
A HOODOO BOAT
She Had n Number Of Acct
dents While in the Clcyc-
land Service.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 24.-Clcvcland
steamboat inspectors vino had inspected
the steamer Eastland while she was on
the Cedar Point-Cleveland run from
1906 to 1919 pronounced her safe. but
she was a hoodoo ship from the day she
was launched.
The popular belief in Cleveland al
WAYS was that she would turn over
some time. She was top heavy. especially
so when her water ballast tanks were
empty. when she was first placed on
the Cedar Point run a number of he!
cabins were torn away to make hcr
less top heavy.
Despite the claims Of her owners and
others that the Eastland was a safe
boat. Cleveland had good cause to re-
member her. Vessel men worried about
her every time she cleared the break
water,
In her first season here, while carry
ing 1000 persons, she went aground
near Cedar Point and listed 80 much
that her passengers feared for their
lives. Yet she was declared not to have
been in danger at the time. and Federal
authorities investigating upheld this as
~sertion.
ON one trip, with q crowded passenger
list, she ran upon tn" last breakwater
of the Cleveland harbor and was no.
released until the following morning.
ON trips To Cedar Point she ran twice
upon the beach there and was got
of with difficulty,
According 10 officers Of the Cleveland
company, which owned her, she lost be
tween Si75.O00 and $500. 600 while ON
the Cedar Point run. and IL was due in
the main to the public's fear Of her,
When she was 10 dock in shallow
water il was necessary for the Eastlan3
to discharge her water ballast. This,
together with the weight OF more life
boats, added in Chicago under a new
Federal law, Is believed by Cl"velandccS
who are familiar with the boat to have
been the cause of her turning over H.
the Chicago River,
Her last inspection here was in 1919.
Regarding that Capt. y, h, Nelson. the
local Federal inspector Of steamships,
said to-day:
The last inspection here Was In the
spring of 1913, the last season in which
she was on the Cleveland run. At tina;
time she was in perfect condition and
was permitted to carry 1000 passengers
so long as she kept within five miles .!
"hore.
This restriction was because she
carried only eight ~lifeboats, n number
insufficient to care for passengers II she
should sink at a point where the shil

was reduced to $50 between May ant
