The dreadnaught New Mexico, the little coasting steamer Elizabeth, the Standard Oil tanker S. C. T. Dodd and the Japanese freighter Shinkoku Maru were the vessels definitely involved, whi'e the casting up of a quantity of apples— freight on many a vessel sailing jfrom Washington and Oregon ports these days—and a ship's spar on the coast of Vancouver Island gave |mute evidence that another, !f not | Wrecked, had at least suffered se | rious difficulty. | First of the mishaps to be report- ed was that of the Elizabeth, which was reported aground and in a pre- carious situation near Bandon, Ore- gon. Efforts to obtain more infor- mation regarding th's sma’l vessel caused unustial attention to be turn- ed by wireless telegraph stations to the north Pacific and a message from the Shinkoku Maru reporting lands, was picked up at Los Angeles, thousand sof mi'es away. The Elizabeth, it presently devel- oped was in no danger and her three passengers had been landed.

No identify- ing marks on the spar or the apple boxes indicated whence they had come and early today they remained mute ev'dence of some vessel's battle with wind and water in a region where wrecks have been so numer- ous and costly in human lives. Shipping men and newspslper workers had barely taken « able facts on these developments when the tanker S. C. T.
