WATSON GOING SOUTH WITH A
 STEAMER CONVOY
Spokane Acts as Escort to Damaged Vessel Across the Open
 Ocean.

The steamer Admiral Watson is lying at the dock in Cordoya wait ing the arrival there Of the steamer Spokane to convoy her across the Gulf Of Alaska, according to tho off cers of the steamer Maripoza, which arrived Saturday night
 The Watson's outer skin was pune tured in three places, but her inner bottom is intact, according 10 Cap tain Charles O'Brien, who made survey of tho Watson at Cordoya
 "Chier Engineer Raymond and my self made a full survey of the boat, lat the request of Captain Hickman, while we were at Cor5oya, and found that while the outer skin of the Watson was punchred in three plac- es, the inner bottom is entirely in- tact and the boat is perfectly able to continue her voyage south under her own steam" said Captain O'Brien.
 "The Watson was down seven feet at the stern at the time she struck. The first puncture is a small one and is directly under the boilers, aft of the forward tank. Another small leak is under the engines, and there is a large hole under the after tank, all through the outer skin, but not piercing the inner bottom.
 Captain Hickman, of the Watson, has had the space under the boil CTS and engines cemented solid and the pumps are able to keep the water down. The ore in the after tank has been leyeled off SO as to distribute the strain equally on all parts of the inner bottom, and in our opinion the Watson is perfectly able to proceed south under her own steam.
 "The Watson was waiting in Cor dova for the return of the Spokane, and the two steamers will come across the Gulf together. It is prob able that the Watson will enter DlXon's Entrance and clear south bound from Ketchikan, without stop ping at Juneau While crossing the Gulf we kept sending back wireless messages to' the Watson telling them the weather conditions and urging them to cross at once as the weather was good, There is no telling what the weather will be like by the time the Spokane gets to Cordoya," he continued.
