As for tho Pomona herself, however, representa tives of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company report that she will bo a total loss, and that she will sink as soon as pulled off the rocks. Cu.pt. llurtls' Mistake. It is presumed that Capt. Burtis of the M. F. Plant, who passed the scene of tho wreck on tho day of tho dis aster and who expressed the belief, whilo in Marshfleld last Friday that tho Pomona Vaa wrecked while going to tho aid of another wrecked vessel was mistaken by tho distance and the Intervals between the times he sight ed her. vTlie first boat ho sighted, local navigators oenevo, was a tug near Bhoro.

A, Jasper, of Fortuna, Cal., who was aboard said: "It was clear when wo struck. It looks as if Captain Swanson was run ning too closo inshore. Tho sea was not acting badly at tho time, and thero was no commotion when the vessel hit Monterey Rock. Swanson and tho crew all acted calmly and hi porfect order, and It Is duo to their cool efforts that all scenes of excite ment wero avoided."

Tho largest Individual stockholder in the Pacific Coast Steamship Com pany Is said to be Hetty Green, the richest woman in the world. Captain Swanson has not talked much about tho accident as he Is al most disheartened. It Is generally understood that he feared that the Pomona's engines were In bad shape and was keeping in near shoro Jest tho threatened storm strike them and put the engines out of business.
