SAN" FRAXCSIC0, July .-Thirty-
one survivors of the disaster reached
this city at 10:30 this morning on the
Fomona. They left Eureka at 1 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Thirty of the num
bers were members oi the crew and one
passenger, Mrs. Ottilia Liedclt.
"All Hands On Deck."
l.eo Crowley, third pantrvinan on the
Columbia, who arrived from Eureka this
morning on the Pomona, made the fol
lowing statement:
"I was asleep in mv quarters in the
glory hole' when the shock came. AH
the employes in the steward's depart
uient woke up at this time and we came
to the conclusion that the ship had
grounded on a rock. As it was not
thought that there would be nny imme
diate danger, we decided that we would
not dress and go on deck. Home of the
waiters turned over and were preparing
to go to sleep again when we heard the
captain's voice shouting on deck, and
later, at the head of our quarters.
"All hands on deck and cut aw.iy the
boat-I"
Then we realized that the ship was in
danger, and got into what clothes we
could and scrambled 'on deck. On the
way up I came upon little lmy nliout 4
years old trying to climb the cabin
stairs and picked him up, carrying him
up on deck with me. As soon as I got
there a man rushed up to me, grabbed
the child out of my arms and shouted
excitedly:
"'What are you doing with my
hildT' 1 never saw the man nor the
child after, and I think they were both
lust.
"The captain was by this time mi the
bridge and giving oivlers to the crew.
I had got to the port side and was
stuwiing about ainid-liips preparing to
take a ha rid in the lowering l the
boats when the ship lurched violently,
listing to starboard' and taking inn off
my i:vet. 1 was getting up again when
the bow suddenly dipped with a rolling
motion, the stern going 30 or 40 feet
into the air. Then she plunged straight
down, making straight fur the bottom
in mi almost perpendicular position,"
A Hero. """"
The particular hero of the steward's
me s is C. Murphy, who strapjs-d eight
women into life preservers and after
ward jumped into the water with three
wonwii and a child clinging to him. He
saved nil of them, This child wns 13
ji-ars old mid was the only little one
saved from drowning.
The crew have many stories to tell,
but always they return to the heroism
of their captain. They say that he did
not try lo leave the doomed vessel, and
that as be scut the passengers and crew
away in the boats and rafts, his last
words were:
, "Well, boys, I did all I could ifor you
and I can do no mom. She's a goner,
Oood bye."
