The Roanoke, an old San Francisco
passenger boat, sailed from here last
Monday night for South American ports.
She was heavily laden with 10000 casei
of dynamite. $50 tons of powder, 900 tons
OF wheat and a general cargo.
The vessel ran into a big gale soon
after leaving San Francisco Big waves
climbed over her and cross-sea battered
her fearfully.
The strain on the cargo was terrific.
The wheat began rolling In her hold and
the tremendous waves thrown up by the
northwest gale did the rest. The vessel
soon broke in two from the shifting
weight and sank
The Roanoke carried crew of ~ men.
In addition, there were several Mexicans,
who were being deported
The four lifeboats of the old vessel
were hastily lowered, but 1t is feared that
only the one washed ashore near Port
San Luis got away.
Launches today are combing the sea
for miles out, searching for possible sur.
vivors, but, according to the three men
saved, 1t probably will be frutless
search.
Captain Dixon, according to one of the
survivors, gave his life in a futile effort
to save Mrs. Dixon. She fell overheard
as the vessel lurched under the impact
of heavy wave. and the captain dived
after her. Neither was seen again.
