German steamer Anubis ashore near Santa Rosa Islands
The German steamer Anubis of the Kosmos line, en route from San Francisco to Hamburg, grounded on a sand bar mid channel between San Miguel and Santa Rosa islands, thirty miles off Point Conception. It is likely the vessel and cargo, valued at about $110,000 each, will be a total loss. The ship was leaking, fires extinguished, and no passengers aboard.
