Newspaper Page TextPORTLAND, .-'OREGON, SUNDAY MORNING, I NOVEMBER 8, 1914. BY FIRE TO SANTA CATALINA MAY Inspection of Engine Room Leads to Increase in the Estimate! 1 CRAFT TOiGO ON DRYDOCK Kola et Orace XJner Has Been Cleared of Cargo and Debris Will How. Bo BimoTtil. The s-ml-of f ictal announcement in creases the estimated damage to the American steamer Santa Catalina to $360,000. I,aat weik the estimate was placed at $300,000 as a result of the fire. After opening up the engine room of the it-amer it is believed that that part of thershlp Is damaged more than watt first, thpught, hence the increase Jin the final figures.' Workmen completed the cargo dis charging yesterday and at 4 o'clock the wun moved from the Municipal dock to the dock of the Oregon Dry- j qwk qoniyaii, w uere wuriiiueu win continue today to pump out the refuse oil from the hold. Tomorrow she will , be towed to the Municipal drydock to be raised from the water and her hull examined to ascertain whether either the fire or the grounding damaged her bottom. r A thorough examination of the en gine room disclosed some peculiar conditions. On the starboard side the machinery Is badly warped and bent. . On the port side the heat did not even break the glass in the water guages. On boiler was found to be In excel lent condition, water still remaining In It. The other three were ruined. , Just how much work will have to be done in the engine room has not been definitely decided, however, and cannot be till United States Inspectors of Hulls and Boilers Edwards and Fuller have Inspected the steamer. They will make this inspection Mon day at the drydock. The moving parts will then have been rubbed down and cleaned and the final figures will be made. Handling the Santa Catalina, the largest' marine insurance Job, encoun tered on the Pacific Coast In several years, Portland merchants have made an enviable record, according to Charles H. Williamson,, president of Wllicox, Peck A Hughes, Insurance! ad justers. . "In all my experience as an adjuster I have never met a set of more fair minded men than the merchants in Portland with whom I have had to deal," declared Mr. Williamson last night. "My work has been shortened Just two weeks through their willing ness to help and to meet us half way. v hen I first reached the city I was assured by all of them that they meant to help in every way they couid and they certainly have lived up to their promises. Here it is three weeks after the fire and practically every claim is adjusted. "Your longshoremen have also shown a disposition to help. Although the Job of clearing the hold was a nasty one the longshoremen gave me a very reasonable figure and have 'done ex ceilent work.. "I must also add a word In praise of Captain Johnson and the crew of the fireboat David Campbell. Usually when you turn a crew of firemen Into a blase such as we bad they wlU cause more damage than will the fire Itself. , When this cargo came to me It. was. in excellent shape and showed the ef- ' fects of careful handling and scien tific fire fighting. "My one real wish now is that the work of repairing the Santa Catalina Way be done In this port. It would be a great gain to you to have It done here as it would do away with the be lief existing. In many places that Port ' land has no plant capable of doing such a big Job. This Is the largest repair Job that has been offered on the Pacific coast in 10 years or more and I believe that the facilities are hers to handle it."

The burning of the Bteamer Santa Catalina In the Columbia river near Columbia City. October 18, gave a splendid chance for the American sea man to show his mettle and from the exhibition of bravery given by the of ficers of the burning steamer and Pilot Sanderson It is no wonder that in almost every etory printed telling of a shipwreck or disaster that the above statement will always be found, hidden, though it may be, somewhere In the article. Nowhere in the world is the real master any better prized than by W. R. Grace & Co. Their masters begin at the bottom and grow up with them and they are tried and found true be fore they secure a command. It is the boast of boh heads of the com pany and the masters themselves that "political pull" finds no place In the workings of the Grace fleet. In the- burning, of the Santa Cata lina the're stood out above all other things the bravery of five men Cap tain J. F. Rose. Chief Officer Wallis. Second Officer Lusk, Chief Engineer George F. Ashmore and a Portland man, Captain B. Sandstrom, Columbia river pilot. Captain Rose proved in his three attempts to enter the fire room to as slst Gus Johnson, the fireman killed in the fire, that he had been well chosen for the command of , the steamer. The mates, Wallla and Lusk, took their lives In their hands by staying with the burning vessel, attempting to open the sea cocks and thus save' risen direct liners monthly service from Europe to Puget sound via the Panama canal is to be resumed.

The Den of Airlie left Vancouver, B. C, last night bound for Portland. She will berth at the Municipal dock No. 1 In' the north berth, the Grace liner Santa Cecelia going Into the south berth probably some time today.

The berthing of these two schooners makes 16 wind jammers In the fleet and before the first of the new year it is expected that several more vessels will be added to the boneyard fleet. This is the largest fleet ever tied up on Grays harbor and is the direct result of the European war, which has disarranged the businessaaf fairs of the west coast so that no lumber shipments are being made to those ports. Steamer - Columbia arrived in port from San Francisco and berthed at the Wilson mill for return cargo. SANTA CECELIA IS EN ROUTE Grace Liner Doe to , Arrive Here Tonight With Cargo. Completing the first round trip of one of the Grace liners through the Panama canal, the American steamer j santa Cecelia, Captain Anderson, is due to arrive here late tonight.

Curiously, the American steamer Honolulan, the first of the American Hawaiian line's steamers to complete a round trip -from coast to coast, will be leaving the harbor' as the Santa Cecelia comes in.
