REPLACES
FACKlER!

Taking over his new duties Fri
day morning, Immediately after
the city council had unanimously
ratified his appointment, Chief of
Police Harry NJ. Smith lost no
time in putting into effect his
plans to reorganize the police de-
partment.
Chief Smiths first move was
to denote Detective Captain Will
lam Fackler and replace him by
Capt. ID. o. Smith, who was act
ing-chief from January until May,
and who was reduced to the rank
of detective when Petit took Of
flee.
Fackler Back to Old job.
Capt. Fackler will resume his
former work as pawn shop inspec-
tor, with Detective Albertson as
assistant.
Several other important
changes will be announced Mon
day, according to the new chief.
1t is minated that a change
will be made in the office of night
captain of detectives, now held by
Capt. Frank Geary.
Chief Smith will maintain his
office in the Bertillon department
of the central station. He will
continue to handle the Bertillon
work, with an assistant.
"All that can say today is
that ] shall do my utmost to up
hold the law and to maintain or
der in Tacoma" announced Chief
Smith Friday.
Four New AppOintees.
"First of all, / want to create
harmony in the department. We
must all work together, and there
is no reason why the officers can
not do it,"
In accordance with Pettit's an
nouncement several days ago, four
men were appointed to the police
department, in the capacity of pa
trolmen, Friday. They will as
sumo their new duties at once.
The new men are James c.
Shaffer, station b; Paul II. JEFF
frey, 1920 South 41st; Harry B.
Miller, 1919 Pacific; and J. r.
Teale, All South 4th.
All of these men, except Miller,

upper works and its steel
plates red hot I'm spots from
the runibling blaze inside, all
that Is left of the $2,OOO,OOO
coast liner Congress lay on
Coos Bay spit today, practi-
cally a total loss.
In Marshfield and North Bend,
423 passengers and crew, many
clad in odds and ends, penniless
and In some cases suffering from
nervous shock, were distributed
among the townspeople, awaiting
the arrival of special trains to
carry them on to Tacoma and Sc
attic.
So far as is known now, not a
single life was lost.
Fire was discovered in the Sec
ond steerage of the Congress at
l D. m. yesterday. Capt. Cousins
decided to make a 30-mile run for
shore
Narrow Escape.
The race with death was won
by a hairsbreadth.
When the burning liner cast
anchor off Coos Bay, fire was
roaring forward, herding terrified
passengers toward, the bow.
Captain Cousins ordered life
boats lowered after the deck be-
gan to get hot under our feet
said Chief Steward Damsden.
"As heat from the flames be-
came more intense, some passen-
gers began sobbing.
Massed on One Side.
1.-THE real wrench came when
we began lowering lifeboats and
the order Women and children
first was given out. Many wom-
en- refused to leave their hus-
bands.
by this time the smoke and
hot fumes were so dense and suf-
locating on the port side that all
efforts to launch boats there were
abandoned and the passengers
massed to starboard.
"In spite of the steadily gain
ing fire, there was no panic. We
lowered seven boats as smoothly
as Il in practice. The sea was
calm and passengers were carried
Immediately to the dredge Niche,
three miles off shore. After all
passengers were saved we tried
to rescue some of their clothing
and other effects.
I'VE barely started this work
when fire came shooting up the
matches and through the warped
decks"
Seamen, their eyes red
trimmed from smoke inflam-
nation, many with slight
burns, were hailed as heroes
today by the rescued passen-
gers.
