Tillamook, Or., Nov. 27. Tho

and afterwards floated herself, found

the Argo.
The steamer Argo, which plies, be1
tween Portland and Tillamook, ran
ashore on tho south spit of Tillamook
bay yesterday afternoon.

boats, containing Mate Johnson and
nine others, stayed at sea and drifted
for several hours, when it was Anal
ly picked up by the steamer Osh
kosh, which had been in the vicinity
for about 12 hours. The other boat,
containing Captain Snyder and ten
othfers, has not been located, and it
is feared that they were drowned In
the heavy seas.
The Oshkosh has b"en patrolling
the scene for hours without sighting
the endangerted lifeboat, and it is be
lieved that, if the boat and its occu
pants were safe it would have been
heard from.
The steamer Roanoke was seen
through binoculars, about eight
miles off shore, picking up a small

she was seen to send up rockets, sig- Badoni was found by tho officers
nifying that the vessel was again in sunning himself on top of Squaw rock
shone, three of these, were drowned.
The Argo soon floated herself, and,
with those on board, anchored out
side Tillamook bay. She seemed to
be In no danger.
At 9 o'clock last night she sud
denly began to ship water, and Caj
tain Snyder ordered the two lifeboats
lowered. One was in charge of Cap
tain Snyder and the other in com
mand of Mate Johnson.
The one containing Johnson and
nine others was picked up later by
the steamer Oshkosh, but thie one
with Captain Johnson and ten oth
ers on board has not been sighted up
to noon today.
Those picked up in tho first boat
are as follows: .
N. A. Oldig, whose 'wife was
distress, and then her lights went
out. At dawn she was nowhere to be
sefan. The steamer Oshkosh, which
has been standing by slnco yesterday,
cannot cross the bar until high tide,
and it is Impossible to communicate
with her on account of the life saving
boat being smashed.
. It is possible that the Oshkosh
removed the remaining passengers
and crew beforo the Argo foundered,
but until the Oshkosh arrives at Til
lamook it will be impossible to as
certain the fate of the persons on
board the Argo.
The boat ordinarily carried a crew
of eight men, none of which wero
taken off yesterday. It is not known
how many passengers were still on
board, but probably not more than
six or eight.
The Argo was blown ashore yes
terday and three passengers were
drowned while being landed from a
lifeboat. The Argo succeeded in
floating herself, and was waiting off
the Tillamook bar to bo brought in
when she disappeared.
