The THLL STORY 0F WRECK O THE KALCER Passengers and Crew of the I1l-Fated Steam Schooner ‘Which Was Driven Ashore Arrive “on the Sea Foam ALL EFFORT TO SAVE VESSEL IS DEFEATED | S e When Last Seen She Was Drifting Bottom Up Off the Mendocino Coast and Tossed by the Rough Sea f i LA The passengers and crew of the wrecked steam schooner W. H. Kruger, which went ashore off the Mendocino County shore early Friday morning, arrived in this city yesterday morning on board the tug Sea Foam, in charge of Captain Mil- ler. For nearly four hours the refugees of the wrecked vessel were tossed and buffeted about in a heavy sea before the Bea Foam loomed up in sight and took them on board. It was a harrowing experience, one 're- plete with thrills and dangerous excite- ment. The passengers and crew of the Kruger were clad only in scant clothing, having left all dr effects on board the vessel. Luckily’ there were no women or children in the opepgboats. Several times the dories threats to turn turtle in the raging sea, but luck was on the side of the shipwrecked crowd and they managed to weather the storm till the Sea Foam picked them up at 7 o'clock yesterday morning. The Kruger left Fort Bragg at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon in charge of Captain Fred Nordberg with a cargo of lumber | consigned to Swayne & Hoyt of this city. Shortly after leaving the northern port the Kruger encountered heavy gales and rough seas. Captain Nordberg did not expect any danger and thought his good ship would pull through as she had done many times before. : ‘When but a few miles outside of Fort Bragg the Kruger commenced to fill with water. The seas rose tremendous heights and the wind blew'a terrific gale. Water seemed to be coming in from all sides and it finally got so bad that Cap- tain Nordberg was forced to order the men out of the engine-room and trust to the mercy of the ocean, The waves rose higher every. minute and Captain Nordberg, seeing the situa- tlon was dangerous, ordered the three boats to be lowered. Ever¥'mard on board donned a life preserver, danger signals were put out, rockets were shot off and the foghorn started. At 3 o'clock in the morning the situa- tion became desperate. Captain Nordberg saw that the only thing to do was to abandon the ship and take to the life- boats. The passengers were lowered into two boats, Captain Nordberg and Cap- tain Hendrickson, his guest, remaining on board till they saw all the others safely in the boats. Captain Nordberg jumped from the ship into lifeboat No. 2, a distance of about thirty feet. He barely landed in the small boat. Captain Hendrickson, seeing the danger, refused to follow Captain Nord- berg’s lead, but waited for several min- utes and finally managed to jump into lifeboat No. 1 without any difficulty. Captain Nordberg took the foghorn with him and kept it blowing continuously to attract the attention of some stray craft. For nearly four hours the three boats tossed about the breakers and were final- ly picked up by the tug Sea Foam shortly before 7 o'clock yesterday morning. The Sea Foam, with the passengers and crew of the Kruger on board, cruised around for five hours, and about noon sighted the steamschooner Brunswick. To- gether they started for the Kruger in any| effort to get her in tow. The seas were still running very high, and it was with the greatest difficulty that the Sea Foam managed to get a line on the waterlogged ship. But her efforts to move the Kruger met with no success. The lines snapped like tow so strong was the sea. Finally the Brunswick fastened a line, to the Sea Foam in-an effort to help her out, but again the task falled. The boats were then reversed, but with no better results. Seeing that there was no chance to get the Kruger out of her hopeless position, the Sea Foam and Brunswick captalns decided to abandon her and leave her to the mercy of the seas. When the Sea Foam left the Kruger on Saturday after- noon she was tossing about bottom up, fasg drifting toward the rocky shoals and thréatening to either, sink or be dashed to pleces at any minute. Swayne & Hoyt, agents for the Kruger, recelved & telephone message yesterday afternoon which stated that the Kruger gone ashore near Pilots Cove and swas _being dashed to pleces on the rocks. She will be & total loss, as the shore at that point is very rocky and when once a boat strikes there she has no chance of escape. Captain Nordberg was very grateful for the manner in which Captain Miller of the Bea Foam treated himself, his passengers and crew. Nordberg says Miller also made herolc efforts to take the Kruger into tow and 4id not give up till he saw the task was a hopeless one and that he would only be endangering his own boat i _he continued any longer. The officers and crew of the Kruker are as follows: Captain Nordberg, First Officer Willlam Justin, Second Officer Carl Nygren, Chief Engineer F. Coaxson, First Assistant Engineer Thomas Salmon, Steward E. Stenfors and fourteen seamen. There were five passengers in all: George W. Goodwin, a drummer residing in Alameda; George Barney, a northern prize fighter en route to Sacramento with his trainer; George Smith, Herman Pe- terson of Fort Bragg and Captain Hen- drickson of this city, the guest of Cap- tain Nordberg. Phe Kruger was built in 1899 and had been running along the coast in charge of Captain Nordberg ever since that time, She never in trouble before.

ARMY RMER PINES When the transport Sherman arrived from Manila yesterday morning De- tectives McGowan and Conlon boarded her and placed under arrest two of the passengers, Harry J. Collins and Alex- ander T. Goehr. The arrests were made on informa- tion contained in letters sent by C. R. Trowbridge, chief of the secret service at Manila. He wrote that both were ex-armys officers and were bad char- acters. Collins came to the jslands first as a private in the First Colorado Volun- teers. Then he joined the Thirty-sixth Infantry, U. S. V.. and became commis- sary sergeant. He was promoted to & captaincy in the Thirty-second Infan- try. Later he obtained a commission as first lieutenant in the Ninth Infan- try, U. S. A., and still later was trans- ferred to the Twenty-eight, when he returned to the islands. He became en- tangled in several scrapes and was dis- missed from the service. He was ar: rested for “rolling” drunken soldiers in a roadhouse, was convicted, but re- leased on a technicality. Goehr, Trowbridge wrote, was a Ger- man-American. He was an officer of a volunteer regiment and while canteen officer made large sums in crooked dealing and left the Islands shortly after he was mustered out. He so- journed in Singapore and towns along the Chinese coast, representing that he had money on deposit in the First Na- tional Bank of this city. He drew two clecks, one for $290 and the other for $600, which were indorsed by C. W. Mead and cashed by the International Banking Corporation of Shanghal. Both checks were protested for want of funds. In Singapore in 1803 Goehr fs- e e ASSOCIATION HOLDS ITS ANNUAL MEETING Hebrew Home for Aged Dis- abled Is Now in Prosper- ous Condition. The Assoclation of the Hebrew Home for Aged Disabled held its annual meet- ing and election of officers in the home, 507 Lombard eet, yesterday afternoon. Beveral reports, showing the way the home is conducted and the financial standing, were read and several sugges- tions were made concerning the new home which will be constructed during the present year at the corner of Nineteenth avenue and Clement street. The reports show that the association is in a prosperous condition, and, including the thirty-nine enrollments during the last year, has a membership of 602. There are sixteen inmates under the care of the assoclation at the present time, which does not include several who returned to work, but who are partly supported by the assoclation. A rising vote of thanks was given to Dr, A. M. Weis, who donates his service to the home, and Samuel Pollack, presi- dent of the asseciation, for their faithful service during the last year. Construction wcrk on the new home ‘was postponed until the association could raise the necessary money to complete it without debt,.but as Mrs. Jane Stanford left it $10,000 and the estate of Captain Frecman will soon be settled whereby the assoclation will receive nearly a million, it bas decided to begin work as soon as possible and construct the home during the year. } The following directors were elected to conduct the business, of the association during the following year: Samuel Pol- OFFICERS PROMOTED FROM THE RANKS IN THE PHILIP- WHO WERE ARRESTED ON THEIR ARRIVAL FROM THBE ORIENT YESTERDAY AT REQUEST OF A MANILA SECRET SERVICE AGENT.
