Northwestern May Be a Total Loss After Bay of Roche Incident
The Alaska Steamship company steamer Northwestern lies hard and fast on rocks at Palose Bay near Roche Harbor, with 13 feet of water in her forward hold. It may be a total loss as tides threaten her stern. The Northwestern, formerly Ori gaba, left Seattle for Valdez, was near the British steamer Lees which rescued passengers and mails after a 2:40 a.m. grounding. The ship, 2354 net tons and valued at about 250,000, went ashore off the Alaskan coast three years ago, requiring 100,000 dollars in repairs.
