The ill wind that piled the schooner on | the beach proved a fortunate one for the C. A. Hooper Lumber Company, as the corporation will net about $4000 from the salvage of the lumber of the wrecked vessel. Four hundred thousand feet of lumber, that comprised the cargo of the schooner and estimated to be worth $5000, was sold to the Hooper company for $i00, while the Pacific Coast Wrecking Company pur- chased the hull of the vessel for $275. It was not thought at the time of the sale that it was pc ble to bring ashore any of the lumber on beard the schooner but J. Roach of the Pacific Coast Wrec ing Company was full of resources. He signed a contract with the Hooper Lum- each thousand feet of lumber he sav A few days ago-Roach with a for men started operations. The first thing done was to_erect a pair of “shears’” on the beach. Then a strong wire rope was 1astened to a mast of the wrecked schocn- er and stretched taut over the top of the “shears.”” Ropes and tackle blocks were attached to the wire guy rope, forming what is known as a ‘‘traveler.” A sta- tionary steam engine was then put in po- sition in the rear of the ‘‘shears” and used to haul the “traveler” to and from the wreck to the shore. Four men were engage wreck, while six men were employed at the shore end of the apparatus. The men on the vessel would attach rbpes to a number of planks and timbers, the signal would be given and the engine would haul the lumber from the deck of the ship into the air, drop it In the water and quickly pull it ashore. J. Reach, the diver, who is in charge of the work of salvage, stated that about 1500 feet of lumber are hauled ashore by the “traveier” every hour. He expects to finish the job of unlcading the cargo in the course of two weeks. The teams of the Hooper Lumber Com- pany take charge of the salvaged cargo as soon as it .is brought ashore and haul it from the beach to the yards of the cor- poration. yesterday on the | 3 Diver Roach expects to clear a little profit from his investment of {)ur(‘ha!inz the wreck of the schooner. As soon as the cargo s landed the schooner will be stripped of her fittings and everything of any value. Roach says that he will make no attempt to break up the huil, as it | would not pay to do so. Since the schoon- er went ashore the surf has carried her further inshore at the rate of five feet a day. and at low tide it is possible to walk to_the stern of the vessel. The bones of the lumber schooner W. H. Bee-Bee, that went ashore scme ten years ago, lie close to the spot where the Reporter beached, and the remains of the latest victim of the ocean will be left to keep vigil for many years to come with those ‘of her equally ‘unfortunate sister vessel. Libel for Insurance. Dowdell & Co., Limited, filed a libel | yesterday in the United States District Court against the Munich Assurance Com- pany, Limited, and Alllance Assurance Coempany, Limited, doing business as The Associated Insurance Companies. The plaintiff seeks to recover $1688 insurance on cargo of the steamer Tacoma, which stranded in Bering Sea in June, 1900.
