TRAMWAY
The steamer Selkirk, operating as a
freighter between this port and Brew
ster, sank at her dock at Tramway, a
wheat station lour miles-up the river
at 4:30 o'clock >esterday morning.
The boat was tied up for tbe night and
nil 0:1 board were asleep when the
accident occurred. Tbe boat sank In
ihallow water and fthe crew escappd.
Tbe damage was slight and was confin
ed to that done the cargo.
As soon ns the news of the accident
reached Wenatchee the North Star was
sent to tbe assistance of the disabiea
vessl and brought down her cargo.
At present it is not known how the
accident occurred. Mr. E. A. Morck,
secretary of the company believes
that the boat may have been tied over
a sharp rock and tbe weight of tbe
cargo may have forced a hole through
the bottom of the vessel. Another
rbeory offered is tbat the heavy load
forced the dry seam? of the hnllnnder
water allowing enongb water to run iv
to sink her.
Mr. T. A. Davie:-, who left for
Seattle Saturday on 1 business trip,
returned to WeuatoLe» on hue night's
train and in company with Mr. Morck,
left this morning for the scene of the
accident.
The boat will be raised 'and put in
commission again as soon as possible.
KAISER TO
INTERFERE
ST. PETERSBURG Nov. 13.—The
dreaded intervention of Germany in
the Russian crisis ha* come. The
kaiser, when he learnpd of the Kron
stadt riots, sent a wireless message
to the o/.ar offering to place the Ger
man northrern sqnardou at his dis
posal. The czar sent back a message
of thanks. It has not transpired whet
her the offer goes beyond safeguarding
the sorvereigns person, but inasmuch
as a German warship has been station
ed off Peterhof for several days for
this purpose, it is inferred that Emper
or William's proposal has a wider
signficance.
Armed intervention in Poland by
Germany seems to be imminent.
Emperor William has within striking
distance 20,000 troops of all arms, in
cluding artillery and transport, and
an augments are being made to have
a reserve force of equal strength avail
able to be launched by rail on different
points of the frontier if necessary.
This was the chief nutter discussed
and agreed upon between the czar and
the kaiser, it is asserted in diplomatic
qaurters here, at their reaent meeting
in th c Baltic sea. '
