' Passengers 4a 8 Neutbers 4 Crew
of Steamer 'Governor Uneecounted
For. Ship Sinks After Bit by
Freighter.
Seattle, Wash., April 1.-The 'Paciflo
Steamship Company this afternoon an
nouncod that a complete and careful
recheck of survivors from the steamer
Governor sunk off Point Wilson early
today after a collision with the steam
er West Hartland, showed seven pas
senigers and three mem'bers of the
crew, unaccounted for.
The West Hartland, which arrived
here today with survivors, struck the
Governor in a slanting direction, ac
cording to ship's officers, crumpling
the freighter's bow, and cutting the
lpassenger boat almost in two from the
starboard side.
According to passengers, the West
Hartland partly supported the Goy
ernor with her nose driven deeply into
the Governor'q side, but as soon as the
freighter 'backed clear the 'passenger
vessel began to sink.
The collision occurred lose than a
mile olf shore, directly oppoatte the
Point Wilson ieht house near Port
Townsend, in the Strait of Juan de
Fuca. The Governor is believed to lie
in nibont .25 fathoms of water. Accord
ing to 'Purser Holser, the Governor was
on Its course, It being caUtomary t,
steam close to shore in making the
Point Wilson light.
Ship's officers declared the might
was fairly clear wi'th a Hig'ht fog over
hanging. William G. Thomas, keeper
of the Point Wilson lighthouse, who
was in his tower at the time -of the
crilrtison, said lie plainly 'heard the
crasb and could see the two shps to
-gther from his window.
'Purser holser saved only the'log and
'the -payroll of the sh lii'* papers. 'Othor
records, inurding the 'passenger list,
went down in the safe, w'hidh aso con
ained a considerable amount of
money, Holmer said.
An unxioms crowd gathered gt the
1pier here as the Welat Hartland, her
Ileck crowded with a 3rudldled Tfrong of
'survivors In motley of blankers and
'borrowed clothing, warped -into the
al1p. A cold df'izTl'ing rain added to
-the misery of those on the big freight
e-'s deck throughout -most of the slow
turney from the sewne of 'the colli
sion. 'Few' of them 'tad been ible -to
escape completely chtted. A number
were In their nIght clothes and eome
were wrapped in :bla'kets lent 'by
members of the West Hartland's arow.
Neither Captain 70. 'P. fartlett, of 'he
Governor nor Captain John Alwen of
the West Hartland, would discuss the
affair, except to say order was main
tained on the sin'kinig vessel. Mrs. H.
William,. who is blind, was given spe
cial care by the crew, her daughter,
1Mrs. H. Weisner, of Summer, Wash.,
said. They were acconipanled by the'ir
husbands. "The men of the crew -were
simply wonderful," said Mrs. Weisner.
"They put a life preserver on mother,
carried her up the ladder and put us in
boats."
Gran't Christensen, second assistant
engineer of the Governor, is believed
b~y the ship's officers to have gone to
his death when ho insisted on going
down to the engine room to see if he
could keep th ship's engines running.
Several children, at least two of
them habies in arms, were included
among thh survivors and were brought
off the WVest H1-artland swathed in
bl1angets.
Federal steamship inspectors tonight
began a preliminary investigation of
the collision. The inquiry, which 'was
called to determine 'whether officers of
either ship should be charged with re
sponsibility for the accident, was held
behind closed doors.

Quick Thinking Probably Saves Pris.
on. Negre in Tampa Jail.
Tampa, Fla., April 6.-A force of
atmed guards was placed within the
Hillsborough county jail tonight as a
precaution against the possibility of
an effort 'being made by a mob to
take Wilmer Collins, negro, brought
here today from 'Polk County, who is
charged with attempted attack on six
white women at Bartow Monday
night.
The (presence hero of a considera'ble
number of Polk county men, -who ar
rived in automobiles during the af
ternoon and reports of threats to "get"
Collins led Sheriff W. C. Spencor to
prepare for any eventuality.
Shoriff John Logan of ;Polk county
prevented a lynching soon after Col
lins was captured near Lakeland thin
morning. The negro was taken first
to Lakeland and the sherIff and three
deputies started with him from there
in an automobile for Bartow. About
100 men overtook the sheriff's party
in the country. Halting his car, Sheriff
Logan faced the mob.
"Gentlemen," he said, "there will
be no trouble. I know every man
among you. I swear each and every
one of you in as a deputy sheriff. It
is your duty now to escort with tme
this prisoner to the jail at Bartow."
The mob was taken by surprise and
stood by, whilo the sheriff placed the
negro in a faster car than his own
and placing three doputies in the
car, told them to drive right through
Bartow and head for Tampa. They
soon outran the other cars and
brought the prisoner safely to this
city.
Collins was a "trusty" in the coun
ty jail at Bartow, serving sentence
for a minor offense. He was sent on
an errand Monday and entered a house
and attempted to attack a white girl.
Her screams frightened him away, and
while he was ibeing sought, he went
to five other houses with the same
intent. He -was captured but escaped
while a mob was taking him into the
country.
