"Ten years ago some authorities said
alt the property of the United States

"Why,' do you know," " Mr. Johnson

Lives of Fifty Passengers on

gine, Handle the Steering!
"Wheel and Collect Pares at'

The lives of 60 passengers on the
Oaks . Flier were imperiled yesterday
afternoon when the boat. In attempting
to make - a -landing at the Morrison,
street dock just above Morrison bridge,
was struck by the opening draw and.
a portion of the canopy roof torn of r. .
It is alleged by the passengers thit
there was but one man to operate tha
boat to steer, run the engine and col
lect fares. They say it was a mere
matter of luck that a much more serious
accident was avoided and that th' ac
cident was caused by the inability of
Captain John Larson to both steer and
operate the engine. ." ; ,.
It was just B.'4S o'clock I when th
accident occurred' and the . Flier wss
loaded with a crowd of Sunday excur
sionists returning to. the city from the- -Oaks.
. As the boat, which Is. a cata
maran,' propelled by a gasoline engine
and with seats running along the ral
around the entire craft, drew near Its
landing at Morrison street, the steamer. .
Pomona, bound down stream, whistled
for the bridge and made for the east
side of the draw. :
Captain Larson tried to get - down
ahead of the Pomona, swing towards
the west bank in an arc just above the
Morrison bridge and make his landing
with' the bow facing upstream. He
swung around ln front of the Pomona
all right but got too near the bridge
so that when the draw opened it Btruck
the port side of the canopy over the
bow of the boat, tearing away th
wooden frame and the canopy for about
six feet square and careening the boat
until the Dassenxers. fearing
that it
to leap
would be overturned, prepared
overboard. -
Owing to' the old saw that a body can
not be two places at the same time
Captain Larson was unable to stick to
his wheel and also run back and re
verse his engine in time -to avert the
collision. He backed out, however, be
fore any more damage was done to hie
boat, and made a safe landing.
There has been considerable criti
cism of the Flier along the waterfront
because of the fact that one man op
erates it. It's a boat 40 feet long and
frequently carries from 60 to 75 passen
gers. The steering wheel Is in the bo'
and the engine is at least 10 feet back
from the wheel so that it is necessarr
for the operator to run from one plafce
to the ' other constantly. At timna
there is a ticket taker, but yesterday;
afternoon. It is alleged, Larson steered.,
ran the engine and collected the tickets,
