Survey Steamer Settles on a Rock and Her Rudder UnShipped
 and Hanging.
CONVOYED TO JUNEAU
Survey Will Be Made and Government Steamer May Be Placed
 on the Beach.

The coast and geodetic survey steamer Patterson is lying anchored in the channel with an unshipped rud der, resulting from striking an un charted rock off the west coast of Chichagoff Island last Thursday. The Patterson was conveyed to Juneau by the L. Roscoe, which left here l last Saturday night to assist the Patterson If a diver can be secur' ed, a survey of the injuries will be made without bleaching the boat, oth her on the beach as soon saa the tides are suitable. The Patterson is under command of Captain C. C. | Quillan.
 1 The Patterson had been working near the south end of Lizianski Strait where there are many uncharted rocks. The crew had gone outside the straits several times with launch parties and made soundings before the larger ship was taken out. | Last Thursday the Patterson ven tured out through the south end of the straits from her anchorage with | the intention of landing shore par ties on the shores of Chichaagoff 1 Island to make soundings and sur veys When outside the Straits a slight swell, which was running at the time, allowed the Patterson to settle down OF top of a rock. The rudder was all that touched but it was unshipped and left hanging.
 The Patterson at once started for Icy Straits slowly under her own steam and managed to make Indian l Cove, where she anchored. A wire
 less call was sent to Sitka and wired to Captain l.. o. Colbert, of the l.. Roscoe, who received the wire in Juneau Saturday night.
 The Roscoe at once left to render assistance to the Patterson and ar rived at Indian Cove on Sunday night. The two boats left there yes terday at noon and arrived here at 1 an early hour this morning.
 Soundings of the channel will be taken by the crew of the Patterson and if possible some time during the next few days she will be placed on the beach at some point above the l Casey -Shattuck Addition where the rudder will be reshipped and repair ed It is not thought necessary to send the boat to Seattle for dry dock 1 ing.
