Max OvaaiiOAaD. On Wednesday
night of last week while the steamer
Bbaver was on ber op trip, and when
a short distance above Rainier, a man
was lost overboard, who is said to have
borne the name of Crowley, Crowley
and a number of other railroad men
boarded the steamer at Rainier, nearly
all of whom were more or less intoxi
cated, and were fighting among them
selves. When the steamer had pro
ceeded about a mile and a half up the
river, and whan passing one of the
railroad camps the men on shore beard
a man in the river cry out, "I am
overboard off the Shaver," and at tbe
same time calling for help, that he
waa drowning. The men at the camp
procured a boat and rowed in the di
rection of tbe call, but before they
reached him be sank. The noise of
tbe steamer no doubt prevented the
pilot bearing tbe appeal for help and
she proceeded on her way. A day or
two later one of tbe Rainier passen
t?ere. who is also said to have been
drunk, made a statement to tbe effect
that either Furaer Hordby or tbe mete
had thrown the man overboard, but
little credenoe ia given such a story by
persons well acquainted with the offi
cers of the Shaver. Tbe unfortunate
man may have fallen overboard, or in
their drunken melee some of bis com
panions msy have knocked him into
the river; but to imply that either of
the officers waa a party to it will not
be believed by those woo Knew tnem,
Tbe attention of tbe grand fury was
called to tbe matter but no action was
taken. ., -: . - '- v
