' INVESTIGATION BRINGS OUT N EW FEATURES Officers and Crew of Steamer Cat cade, That Rammed the Lurline, Give Testimony Before Inspectors Edwards and Fuller, wrrr - From -the' evidence produced at the Investigation of the Cascade-Lrtirllne collision before Inspectors Edwards and Fuller It is evident that had the Lurllno sank a few feet from where she went down many of the 20 rarcergera would litre bvcn carried "mil U death,, and perhaps some of her crew would have met the' same fate. Luckily the craft , backed "away from the deep channel during the three mlnutea tha she re . ma'.ned afloat after . the crash., so that whtn she eettlvl vn the river bed her . cabins were partly above water. This ..made the rescue of the paaaengora com- paratlvely easy..

Then -the" steamer drifted onto K T iirlln. I . . . - ... i - ' ' ; All -witnesses agree -that there -.waa a "dense fog at the time; yet lights from shore- were discernible, although not .' plainly. Pilot Barton says that aa soon as th light -of - th Lurline became vtalbie tha Cascade's englnea were re versed, but It waa too late, for half a minute later the two boata were wedged and the Limine filling rapidly. Una Investigation will probably be concluded tomorrow, but a deolslon wui : not be rendered for several days, as the evidence will have to be thoroughly eon sldered by tha Inspectors. It la being .... taken down In writing. , though tha men may have been signed anywhere. In this instance the men were signed" on at Newcastle, Australia, for. tha run across the ocean, none of them wishing to tie himself down for the long run around the Horn to Europe. Those of the crew who have found the vessel suitable have the privilege of re ahlpplng, but tha majority of them will remain here until they see a good chance to return borne on some lum ber carrier. '...-.,. , Moat British sailing vessels In the harbor have lost their crews, the men wishing to try their luck ashore for a while, although It la ten to one that In a fay months a liberal percentage of them will again be found In the fore castle of some windjammer. Work is so plentiful that the sailors can fall Into Job about tha moment they . step ashore and the approach of the holi days also acta as an Incentive to draw them from their old, haunts and hash- board.. The French sailors are less roving" and few of them desert. The observance of stricter . rules on the French vessels also tends to keep the men from deserting.
