Anfind- | sen, went aground inside of Fort Point, | 500 yards west of the Fort Point Life Saving Station and about 100 yards from shore. The tide was about half high running out and the vessel settled easily down in the sand. Her engines were backed, but the steamer stuck hard and fast. The Newburg left her berth at Mis- | sion street wharf about 7:50, bound fnr‘ with full cargo and ten passengers. The life saving crew im- mediately boarded the steamer and brought Captain Anfindsen ashore. He | telephonied a Redstack tug to pull his vessel off the beach in the morning at | high tide, which will be at about 5:30. The steamer lies in an easy position | and there being no swell is not in the ! ghtest danger. Captain Anflndsen‘ ys it was so foggy he could not see | the lights and he was too far inside | the bay to get his bearings from the sound of the foghorns outside.
