JBe in Sight of tand Agairu
Fearful ' southerly . and southwesterly
tales were encountered by tha Portland
St Asiatic liner Numsntla all the way
across tha Paoiflo ocean, from Toko
hama'to the Columbia river, and her
decks were awash moat of tha time, al
though sho bad only 1,200 tone of cargo
In the hold and stood well Out of the
water. 'Her officers report having had
a strenuous time of. tt and the coolie
aatlora. and firemen look hollow-eyed
and fagged out because of the hardships
Incident to handling the big liner In a
continuous blow of ISH'days. At times
the steamer rolled so fearfully that
many of the crew got seasick and dlssy.
The- Numantia arrived In the harbor
last night and went to Montgomery dock
No. 1 to discharge part of her cargo,
which consists principally of general
oriental merchsndise, matting and teas.
Customarily she unloads at Montgomery
dock No. i, but that '-dock was so
crowded last night that the liner could
not be accommodated. It WlU only take
a couple of days to rid tha veasel of her
Inward cargo, but she will be In port
boat a week -because she will be given
a full cargo of flour outward
Despite tha rough-usage on the way
over, tha Numantia looked trim when
aha pulled Into- the harbor la at night.
The big waves had left soma traces on
tha Iron decks, but aside from 7. thst
everything looked as clean as when tha
steamer started on her maiden trip.
Speaking of the voyage, one of tha
officers aaid that tha gale blew steadily
all the way from Yokohama, so that evi
dently tha Faclfje coast hss not been tha
only storm-swept - district . during tha
past month. Tha sea wss so boisterous
off the bar that, the liner -waa com
pelled to lay outalda 40 hours waiting
for a chance to make tha bar In perfect
safety. 8 he crossed In yesterday morn
ing In the wake of tha ' Norwegian
steamer Jethop.
Although the Numantia ran far to tha
north In following the great circle, she
saw nothing of the British bark Invernls,
which haa been outside for the past
four weeks. Near tha Aleutian lslanda
she met a tank steamer bound west.

that she will be ready to go Into com

"The Columbia ia a fine steamer,"
eald her commander thla morning, "and
evidently very popular, for - all along

There la no way by which to Identify
the derelict at this time, owing to the
fact that a number of lumber droghera
