Quite a change has occurred in the
list of engineers on the steamer Costa
Rica. Chief Engineer E. P. Hough
ton, who has been on the coasters
for the past 15 years, has resigned
his position, his three assistants
joining him in quitting the service.
E. Stcagall, formerly with the City
of Panama, has been appointed chief
engineer, and the places of the other
men have been filled. No reason has
been given for the resignations but
it is thought that the men expected
to be placed on the Rose City but
were not assigned to that vessel,
which will be ready to sail from San
Francisco in a few days. First Officer
C. II. Johnson will also resign when
the Costa Rica returns to San Fran
cisco.
