San Francisco, July 27.—The la-
vaatlgatlon Into tba sinking of th*
steamer Columbia, whereby, accord
ing to the latest figure*, 81 Uvea
were lost, was resumed today by
Captain John Birmingham, United
State* Supervising Inspector.
Offi
cers and mem bet a of the crew of
both veaaela were examined and tbe
deposition* of Captain Hansen ot tbe
San Pedro and bla flrat officer read.
The testimony brought out tb*
statement from Captain Bermlngham
that It waa the flrat time be bad ever
known that life-preserver* had ac
tually been effective in saving life,*
qualifying It by adding that people
were usually too frightened to don
them correctly.
Captain Hansen, In bis report, de
nied that be bad been unnecessarily
cruel in refusing to take any more
survivors on board after be had res
cued 75, givlag as a reason for hla
action that bls own vessel waa lb
such a condition that it was danger
ous to approach her, and therefore
ordered the other boats to keep off.
Chief Engineer Arthur V. Wil
liams testified that the San Pedro
did not lower all her boat* because
the vesael waa under-manned.
The alleged action of Third Offi
cer Hawse, of the Columbia, in re
fusing to give hi* coat to a woman
was brought out in the testimony of
Quartermaster Curran.
The latter
testified that there were unclothed
women In the boat, and when Hawse
waa asked to give his coat to one of
them he had refused, saying that
the coat belonged to him. The wo
men, said Curran, had been exposed
for an hour before Hawse covered
them up with a piece of sail.
Hawse interrupted the proceed
ings by interposing an indignant de
nial, and for a few moments counter
denials flew back and forth between
the two officers. Hawse was placed
on the stand and testified that he
had offered hla coat to Miss Maybell*
Watson, the plucky Berkeley girl,
but she refused It and asked him to
give It to another woman more des
titute than herself.
