ESTEBETH MORE
 DAMAGED THAN
 FIRST THOUGHT
Anita Phillips Leaves to Tow Disabled Vessel Here
 from Haines.

Damages received by the mail boat Estebeth, which run aground near Haines yesterday morning, are more serious than were first thought, ac- cording to a cablegram received from Capt. Pat Davis by Dave Housel, agent for the vessel, today The wheel, rudder and shoe are in bad shape and the Anita Phillips left late this afternoon for Haines to tow the disabled boat to Juneau, where repairs can be made. The gasboat Santa Rita, Capt. William Dickinson. is to leave from the City Float at Il o'clock tonight on the mail and pas senger run to Sitka in place of the Estebeth.
 The cablegram received from Capt Pat Davis today gave the following details that were ascertained after the vessel had been beached at Haines and a survey made of the hull:
 Damage more extensive than first thought. Wheel, rudder and shoe in bad shape. Temporary repairs might be made here but could not reach Juneau before Saturday night, when it would be necessary to beach the boat again and make other re- pairs that would require from three to four tides. Would advise send tug at once and arrange for boat to make mail delivery and passenger run only to Sitka.''
 According to these instructions, the Anita Phillips, with Capt Fay Bay CTS, in command, was sent to Haines today. On the Phillips went P. L.. Coleman. who acts as surveyor for the Marine Insurance Company, rep resented by H. R. Shepard 6 Son, of this city, that carries the insurance on the Estebeth MT. Coleman may make a preliminary survey of the damage at Haines and complete it when the vessel is beached here.
 Thought Damage Slight
 Late yesterday afternoon cable grams were received here stating that it was thought that the damage on the Estebeth was slight and COZ fined to wheel and rudder. It was also said that the boat would be bea.hed and an examination made and perhaps repairs effected tha. would allow the boat to come to Ju- neau with her own power. The sur vey revealed greater damage than w9s expected.
 Thanks for Aid
 That much credit is due to the officers and crew of the harbor boat Peterson for the prompt and efti- cient aid given the Estebeth, is the opinion of George w. Mock, purser of the Estebeth, expressed in cable gra.n sent here yesterday. MT. Mock said that the crew of the Peterson as we'll as officers of Fort William IT, Seward and other residents rem dered most efficient aid to the yes sel while in distress and did every thing possible under the circum- stances.
