cr, crew and captain's wife were res
rufid from the water-logged chooner
Atotoma yesterday morning by a life
boat sent out from the steamer Santa
-Monica. The Santa Monica reached here
this afternoon with the refugees, eight
4n number, the Ootoma having been
ftbandoned. a derelict. For two days
the crew of the boat battled With a
terrific gale 10 miles off Wlllapa har
bor. They had given up all hope when
the Santa Monica, Captain Olsen, came
4o their rescue. ' . - ''
' The Ootoma sailed . Wednesday from
ftobsonville. Or., a port, on Tillamook
Bay, with a cargo of lumber for San
1 Francisco. .
"We ran Into a sever southwest
torm off Tillamook Head,1' said Cap
tain Gruggel, "with which we battled,
but were blown northward out of our
coarse. The pitching of th lumber and
.'pounding of ths waves opened the Oo
loma's seams and Christmas morning
J found who was leaking badly. I decid
ed the only way to save the vessel was
to Jettison the deckload, as the pumps
-ould make no headway against the wa
ter pouring Into the hold. The lumber
was loosened and was carried overboard
by the seas.
"The schooner sank lower and lower,
and with the decks awash, the entire
ship's -company. Including my wife, the
mate, the cook, four seamen and myself,
nought refuge In the wheelhouse, where
we huddled, momentarily expected the
vessel to go down. She was kept afloat,
however, or the lumber in the hold.
- '-; . Wife Cheers Sailor. .
f We were able to get a little canned
tuff from- th ralley, but did not get
any water. The liquid In the cans kept
nur throats' from becoming stiff and
parched. My wife was very brave and
cheered us through the dreadful dark
ties of the night.- We had lost our
rompass and all the ship's papers and
fcept the schooner Into the teeth of
the storm as best we could and tried
to make the Columbia river.
"We steered and drifted alternately,
Tioplng against hope, but. this morning,
when wa found ourselves off Shoalwater
bay, or what we thought It to be, and
being driven landward, we gave our
selves up for lost, but the Santa M6-
. Mica's coming , in sight gave us fresh
ourage. - Our boats had .. been torn
away, but w had no serious difficulty
In getting on board the Santa Monica's
boat, as the storm had moderated a
. little. v. - . - -
"When we left the schooner her sails
were still Intact and she was going
toward the shore. The . only living
thing aboard was a goat, the pitiful
bleating of which we could hear for
mint distance after being taken aboard.
J he crew of tha Ootoma were given hot
rinks and by the time they reached
port were In their normal condition."
Captain Gruggel says this is the sec
ond time lis lias been wrecked. About
IS years sgo h was master of the
schooner Helen Marion when she went
. ashore... He says tha Goto ma carried a
cargo of 350,000 feet of lumber; that
he was Valued at 15000. and that both
the vessel and tha cargo are Insured.
..- Tha- Ootoma was a ' two -masted
schooner " and owned bv the Simpson
lumher company of - Marshfleld fand
Pan Francisco. . She carried a cargo for
the Miami Lumber company of San
Francisco.. Tha vessel was insured.

of water.
Pouring tha strychnine Into the glass,
he drank it, requesting her to phone to
his people to come with a coffin. Ten
minutes later he was heard on one of
the back streets calling for assistance.
Before help reached him he was taken
with convulsions, expiring in a few
minutes. The coroner's jury returned a
verdict of death from strychnin poi
soning taken with suicidal Intent. The
remains were taken to Hamilton the
following day, where interment took

(Cotted Preaa Leased Wire.)
Washington, Dec. 28. The attorneys
of K. H. Harriman are alarmed at the
possibility of failure on the Dart of th
congressional committee on claims to.
anow even a portion or the remunera
tion asked by the railroad king for
work done by his road in curbing the
Colorado river, where it broke Hs banks
and threatened Imperial valley.
The claim has been reduced to $1,
083.673.97, but there is no Indication of
desire on the part of the legislators
to take up the matter, although it mere
ly needs authentication to Insure Its
payment. President Roosevelt has told
congress that he called on Harriman to
do the work.
Should the committee on claims fall
to act soon there Is a possibility that
tha claim will fail of passage.
