s
I Tho Hoard of Local United States In-
'spectora of Steam Vessels for tho district
' of Porllniitl, Oregon, met this morning ut
j 0 o'clock for tho purposo of investigating
tho loss of tho Btcnmship Great Republic
I nt or near Sand Island, between tlio
I Columbia river bar and Astoria. 1'rcs
j cnt Geo. H. Flanders, inspector of
f hulls, James Lotan, inspector of boilers.
' James Carroll captain of tho Great Ho
' public was first examined under oath,
and testified as follows:
I am licensed to act as captain of
steam vessels, and havo been for fioven
years; havo been on tho Great Republic
in tho Columbia river trado about ten
. months, havo experienced severe gales
uotweca oan i'nuicisco aim mu Vsoiura-
bia river bar, but in them tho ship did
i not strain or bIiotv signs of weakness.
i Left San Francisco, last trip, April 1G,
1879, nt 11:50 A. M. I considered tho
ship tight, staunch and in ovory way
' sea worthy, sho drew 18 feet 3 J inches
' on leaving San Francisco. Thcro vrcro
f 02 men and officers of tbo crow and C79
, ' passengers. Had a bar pilot on baard
I when I started on tho trip. Arrived nt
tho automatic buoy nt 12:32 A. M.
April 19, outsido of tho bar; did not sco
' it, but heard it whistle; tho tido was
y just on tho turn of tho ebb. Thcro was
i no wind, tho weather was clear and tho
sea smooth. Tho ship ought to havo
drawn 17 feet 10 inches moan draft nt
tho time. I g&vo tho ship in chargo of
Pilot Doig nt tho automatic buoy. I
did not urgo tho pilot to tako her in,
but told him that 1 would liko to go in
if it was clear enough; I always left that
to tho pilots judgment, I thought Hint
it was prudent to cross nt that timo. I
have crossod tho Republic over tho bar
from tho sea to Astoria at dusk. I do
not remember what pilot took her in
then. Sho was running at her usual
speed when sho crossed tho bar, but
slowed down afterward. Sho would
mako eight miles an hour under slow
bell against tho tido. Sho answers her
helm readily under slow bell. I can
not to tell how strong tho tido runs or
in what direction. Tho ship did not
striko whilo crossing tho bar. Did not
sco buoy No. 1. often passing automatic
buoy, our courso was N. A li. from au
tomatic buoy to Fairway buoy, and from
Fairway buoy to buoy No. 1.
N. by V. Don't recollect tho courso
from No. 1 to No. 2. I saw Point
Adams, Clatsop beach, C'upo Hancock
nnd all tho headlands. Tho ship struck
first on tho lower end of Sand Island.
Sho was then headed li. N. II Sho
stopped ns soon as sho struck. I think
it was about 1:16 A. M. then. Tho
tido had ebbed about two hours. I
thought sho would get o(T without any
troublo at tho next high tido. I
did not signal for assistance, but
sent to Capo Hancock nt 10 A. M.
for a tug. I tried to get hor off
by working tho engines, putting up nails
nnd throwing coal overboard to lighten
her. I do not think sho could havo been
assisted by running out ono of tho bow
anchors. If n storm had como up sho
could liava lcen gotten off by U6ing tho
engines, with tho assistanco of tho tngti
that had been engaged. I commenced
taking off tho passengers about lOo'clock
Saturday. At this timo tho woathcr
was pleasant, eomo swells, but by tho
timo wo got through there was cousidcr
nblo swell. Tho passsngcre wero landed
safely at Astoria. Tho officers nnd crew
loft tho fihip on tho morning of tho -Olh.
Tho last boat going nshoro was capsized
by tho breaking of tho steering oar and
tho first and second officers, ljoutswain,
carpenter awl ten men drowned. I
havo seen tho ship 0cncd and bored
sinco I was master, und sho was perfectly
sound. Tho upper works began break
ing Saturday night, but tho hull did not
break until Monday. I havo seen pieces
of tho ship sinco and they wero perfect
ly sound. James C.utuoLU
Pilot Thomas Doig'u testimony: I
havo beon a licensed bar pilot for fivo
years, and acted on tho Great Ropublio
fivo or six trips. I took charri of hor
tho last trip at 12:30 A. M., April 19,
, 1879, one-quarter of a inilo northeast of
tho automatio buoy, Cape Hancock light,
bearing N. N. V. Capt, Carroll did
not ask me to take tho ship in at that
time, but seemed to expect mo to.
And when wo heard tho whistling
buoy ho said, "Doig, take the ship."
Sinco I havo been a bar pilot I have not
crossed nn ocean passenger steamer from
sea to Astoria, but have taken the Idaho
out before daylight Ocean paisengor
steamers often come in on a moonlight
night, but not on a dark night. It was
not mooulight when wo started the Re
public in. I thought it was safe enough
to tako her over tho bar at tho time, but
thought there would be clangor in mak
ing tho turn at Clatsop spit. The tide
was 3-cbb, weather starlight, with clouds,
nnd calm. Ebb tide runs from two to
six miles and seta from the bar to buoy
No. 4 S. S. W, and from buoy No. 4
W. S. W. to W. There were 2G feet of
water on the bar whon wo crossed and
the Republic was drawing 18 feet. I
did not see any of tho buoys but saw
tho lights on Cape Ditippointment and
Point Adams. Very first course after
crossing was N.N. E one mile, then r.
by N. half to three-quarter mile, until I
saw land. I did not mako any allow
anoo for the tide on the first course, but
on the tecond I did, about one point.
I did not feel the ship striko at all.
Saw the island about tlireo minutes be
fore I knew the vessel was ashore. I
changed the helm as soon as I saw the
island; put tho helm hard nport. The
ship did not answer tho helm readily;
camo nji slow; can't account for it.
Thcro was seven fathoms of water.
Sho was running under slow bell and
had been nil tho way from tho bar. Tho
ship grounded between 1 and half past 1
in tho morning; wny bo ten or fifteen
minutes past 1. Tho tido had been
ebbing for two hours; low water was
about 0 o'clock in tho morni'ii"; high
water was ut 11 o'clock that night. V
mo Iirst high tido alter tho ship
grounded was it littlo lower than on tho
night previous, about a foot. Tho next
high water was at 11:38 A. M. I
thought tho ship would get off then.
An anchor might havo assisted hor
some; if tho achor had been taken in a
boat to tho channel would not, if let
go from her bow. Tho ship began going
to pioccs about 23 hours after sho
grounded. Tho butt, in her main deck,
began to break in about 2G hours.
Then the machinery began to givo way
next. I loft tho ship tho last timo at 3
P. M. Sunday. Tho tido was about
eight feet when sho grounded. I have
seen timbers nnd other portions of tho
ship sinco sho began going to pieces
nnd they wero fresh and in good condi
tion, The wind began to blow 23 or 24
hours after sho grounded.
