HALIRUT STEAMER
 HAD NARROW ESCAPE

The steam halibut boat James Car ruthers, which operates out of Prince Rupert, had a narrow escape from being wrecked during the great storm which swept southeastern Alaska last week. The boat had been on the hal ibut grounds when the storm caught her and when picked up by the An drew Kelly had only sufficient coal in her bunkers to steam ten miles and had been entirely out of provisions for two days. She was encased with ice, her ventilators and upper works being covered to a depth of eighteen inches. The crew had spent 48 hours chopping ice and were exhausted when their plight was discovered. The captain believed that she would not have lasted more than four hours longer as she was top-heavy from the ice. She carried a crew of twenty men.
