Juneau, Alaska—Thirty-three pas
sengers and seven members of the
crew of the Pacific Coast Steamship
company's iron steamship State of
California perished at half past 8
o’clock Sunday morning in Gambier
Bay. 90 miles south of Juneau, when
the vessel struck an unchart«! rock
and sank in three minutes, with many
passengers imprisoned in their state
rooms.
The steamship left Seattle Wednes
day night for Skagway and way
points.
Travel to the north is un
usually heavy on account of 'the stam
pede to the Shushanna gold field. The
purser lost all of his records, and it is
not possible to give a complete list of
the missing.
A great hole was torn in the bottom
of the State of California. Fifty-four
passengers sail«! from Seattle on the
State of California and were booked
for Juneau and Skagway and pre
sumably were on the ship when she
struck the rock. Twenty-two passen
gers were taken on board at [Prince
Rupert, Ketchikan, Petersburg. Wran
gell and other [points, and these also
were on the boat at the time of the
disaster, making a total of 76 passen
gers.
Forty-three passengers were
rescued and taken to Juneau by the
steamship Jefferson, leaving 33 who
have perished. Seven of the crew are
dead, making the total dead forty.
The figures of the number of pas
sengers are given by the Pacific Coast
Steamship company. They cannot be
verified by the purser, who lost all his
records. It is barely possible that
some of the 54 passengers booked to
sail from Seattle changed their minds
at the last moment.
The vessel and cargo, mail and ex
press, are a total loss. The ship was
valued at $400,000.
A number of
horses for use on the Shushanna trail
were on the vessel. The steamship
Jefferson of the Alaska Steamship
company, southbound, heard the wire
less call of the sinking steamship and
turned back to rescue the survivors,
who had taken to small boats and life
rafts. Ten of the passengers had
suffered so severely from exposure
that it was necessary to take them to
a hospital in Juneau for treatment.
Miss Lilian Ward died after being
taken off a life raft. The uninjured
survivors of the crew and passengers
were taken to Seattle on the Jefferson.
