FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MARCH 24, 1898 GOLE-SEERERS The Almy Was Going to Pieces Before She Sailed. J. R. Armstrong Refunded Cash Because of Her Condition. Ran a Lead-Pencil Four Inches Into the Planking of Her Hull. SHIPPED IN A DEATH TRAPI Twelve Men Tried Money Back, but Were Sent to Get Their to Their Doom. Th e probability of a terrible loss of in the foundering of the bark Helen ny was le! ed yesterday when was learned that several other ves- 1s left this port at the same time and ere probably in her immediate vicin- ity when she capsized. Who is to blame for the awful catas- trophe may never be known as a legal certainty, but that those who shipped on the rotten hulk were culpable in their negli 1ce or their haste to reach the gold fi of the north was evident when it was learned that all who went had been duly warned that the bark was unseaworth d would not stand storm. Thre men who took the n now to congratu- their good fortune but those other impatience to warning have late themselves for in losing their passage eager ones have ti blame for their calamity. The three men who a safe and thankful, « the ticke e now alive, to J. R. Arm- r at 21 Mar t they did not su r forty whose names lists, for it was h warning that caused <. In speaking of the d: almost falling It was a shame vas permitted to leave here . She was rotten to the core, had been lying over in Oakland ek, a condemned hulk, for a long I bought twe ive tickets on her when she was chartered, not know- i /thing about her condition, but I learned that she was unsea- 1y I demanded my money back, t it “1 sold tickets to Otto Miller, J. ner, John Meyers and Charles Ohde, came to me and told me that had heard that the Almy was un- sound and unseaworthy. I imme- went with them and a friend , who is a good mechanic and 1l about ships, to the ade an investigation. We found that the hull was crumbling and rotten. We could take an ordinary pocket-knife and run it into the plank- ing of the hull to the hilt and cut a circle about the bolts holding the wood- work together. “E ran my lead pencil four inches imnto the rotten tima- bers and could pinch off the decayed wood with my finger nails. “I took the men back to my office and refunded them their -deposit on the tickets and told them to warn every- on the vessel of her condition. ral people have come to me since n to buy tickets, but I have refused to sell them, and destroyed all the cir- culars which I had printed about the vessel's sailing. ““The man who was down on the list of the bark as ‘unknown’ was Otto Miller, one of the men to whom I re- turned the money. He said that he was In a hurry and was going on the vessel anyhow, and when I refused to gell him a ticket he got mad and bought it somewhere else. That is why his name {8 not known on the list. I crossed it off my list and it wasn’t re- placed. “The men who chartered the bark had a hard time getting a crew, and they must have signed fully a hundred men before they could get enough to stick to man her. Their mates all left two hours before she sailed, and the men who replaced them were picked up about the dock and knew nothing of the Almy’s condition. “Twelve of the men who went on the Almy tried for a week or more to get their money refunded, but the man who sold the tickets to them refused to pay back the cash. These men tried in every way to get their mon but when they found they either had to go on the Almy or lose their money they decided to go with her. Had the party who sold the tickets refunded the money these twelve men would be safe here now.” The party of twelve referred to by Mr. Armstrong had been here for some weeks preparing for their trip to the Klondike. When they learned that the vessel was rotten they went to the agent from whom they secured the tickets and demanded back the deposit money. They were told that the deposit was a business transaction, and if they did not go on the bark they would have to lose the money. They tried for days to get their money, even going so far as to bring influence to bear on the owners of the vessel, but with no avall, and then, rather than lose $240, they decided to take the risk of the unsea- worthy ship. These men were headed by John Snell, and came from Colgate, indian Territory. The party consisted of Snell, Barna, Cinotto, R. Nichols, J. T. Gotsky, John Walker, Willlam Mc- Cray, Willlam Snedden, Julius Gill, Theo Crober, James Ronald, James Saxon and Adolph Waldoo. According to the law regarding the inspection of sailing vessels the wreck of the Helen W. Almy was an accident.

His family thinks that although he had passage engaged he did not go on the vessel because he missed the train at San Jose and the Almy had left before he reached San Francisco. John Leveck has not been heard of since he left San Jose. The loss of the Helen W. Almy was the one topic of conversation on the water front yesterda Some seafaring men think that ev soul on board perished, while oth think that some if not all of the engers and cre may have been s there led la: Sunday the whaling bark Andrew Hicks on a cruise, the schooner Alcalde for Willapa Harbor, Barbara Hernster for Fort Bragg, 3eulah for Seattle, barkentine Eureka for Tacoma, schooners John A. for Eu- reka and Maggie C.

The 1epairs were carried out by CGeorge Funcel, who had orders to make a thorcugh job of it, and my share of the bill for repairs alone came to $890. ‘ Eeyond paying, as one-third owner, for rhe repairs, I had nothing ‘o dowith the voyage. When Mohns and Kalten- bach and Captain Hogan bought ihe other two-thirds of the ship I had no ijea what trade they were going to put her in. “It is quite true that I did not irsure the ship, but then I have never insurcd her. All the time she was running in the island trade I took the risk myself. Why, if I had paid premiums on the vossei from the beginning, to wwhom | would she have belonged? Not to me, | com- | | | but to the underwriters. The panies are asking absurdly high premioms for the northern trade. The s:eamer Humboldt has paid at the rate of 30 per cent per annum, and for the Helen W. Almy they asked 10 per cent for tke vovage. That would be egual tc about 40 per cent per annmum. MHow- ever, as the captain wanted his share of the vessel insured, I got it don2 for hir1 in a foreign office at the rate of 20 per cent per annum.” e —— MUSIC AND DRAMA.

The wreck is in about the same posi- tion that it was Tuesday. Both an- chors have found holding pround and the remains of the vessel will stay where they are until a wrecker or an- other storm sends them to the bottom. Yesterday the revenue cutter Rush went out to the wreck and remained by it all day. No trace of life was found and the wreck gave the appearance of holding _together for some time to come. The captain of the cutter con- siders the remains of the Almy a me: ace to navigation and recommends that they be blown up. The life saving crew at the Ocean Beach went out to the wreck last night and put a light on it. This they will do every night un- til the derelict is removed. The man who knows more about the | Helen W. Almy than anybody else in | San Francisco is “Jim” Widdonson, who for 15 years was first mate of the old craft. *“She was built in 1859 by Charles Almy of New Bedford,” said he, yvesterday. “She was christened after Mr. Almv's daughter, Helen W., ‘W. Almy were guests at his hotel up to the time of departure. “I have been overwhelmed with tele- grams from their friends in the East,” he said, “but what can I reply? I can- not hold out any hope of the poor fel- lows’ safety. They were all fine, strap- ping young men, mostly from Colgate in the Indian Territory. It is too bad. This sort of thing should be stopped; somebody ought to be made responsible for sending ships to sea In such a con- dition.” When seen yesterday J. Wightman Jr. at first declined to discuss the loss of the Almy at all. “It is an awful affair,” he said at last, “but what is the use of talking about it? - Charges have been made against me and the vessel which are utterly unfounded, but sooner than re- ply to them I would prefer to let the matter drop.” “It is also a mistake to say that Cap- | tain Luttrell left the vessel because he | was afraid she would founder. Cap- tain Luttrell gave up the sea on ace | count of his health, and bought a shars |in the J. F. Cunningham Company. | The best proof I can give of the confi- | dence felt in the ship by her officers was that Captain Murchison, who haa sailed in her as mate for several voy- ages, willingly took command of her when Luttrell left. “If there was anything wrong with the ship it was certainly not my fault. | A short time ago Captain Turner sur- | veved her for me, and reported that, | considering her age, the vessel was in wonderful condition and that there wes no cign of rot in her timbers. Then Ky s. Wright & Hay stated tha: she could be put in condition for tha lum- | Ler trode at a cost of $1000, or for any trade at an expense of $3000.
