The steam schooner Shna Yak ex perienced a peculiar accident shortly after leaving the Oak-street dock for Seattle, late Friday night, which re sulted In no damage other than a de lay of several hours. After passing through the steel bridge she ran on a raft of boomstlcks that were being towed by the steamer F. B. Jones and on which there was no light. In some Inexplicable way one of the swifter chains got wrapped around the tailshaft and locked it, the raft not being broken up and the boomstlcks stuck up around the Shna Yak. The Willamette fc Columbia Towing Company, owner of the F. B. Jones, Im mediately assumed all responsibility for the accident and, employing a diver, eventually released the tailshaft. When the engines were turned over It was found that no damage had result ed, and with the consent of Captain Crowe, surveyor for the underwriters, she proceeded on her way to Seattle,' where she will deliver 200 tjns of freight to the steamer St. Helens for delivery In Northern Alaska. As the St. Helens is due to sail for the North Monday, arrangements were being perfected to ship the freight by Tall in the event It was found that the Shna Yak could not go to sea in suf ficient time to make the connection.
