FIRE DAMAGES
Lots Will Be $500, No Insurance—
Father Van der Pol Thanks De
partment tor Good Work.
A fire was discovered at 10 o’clock
last night in the sacristy of the
Catholic church, although the build
ing was but slightly damaged, the
loss will be more than $500, as the
valuable vestments of the priests and
the sacred vessels were all in the sa
cristy.
Fire Chief Finical and his fire fight
ers were on hand promptly and the
flames never spread beyond the room
on the lower floor, nor was the church
damaged by water and Chief Finical
refused to use the high'pressure sys
tem until it was absolutely neces
sary and then not until all the doors
leading to the church had been clos
ed and the water was directed in
such a manner as to do as little dam
age as possible.
How the fire started is unknown,
but it had gained considerable head
,way before it was discovered and
for a time, as the smoke poured out
of the roof and from the windows, it
looked as if the entire building was
doomed, but the burning vestments
caused the heavy smoke and the
flames were held down and no win
dows were allowed to be opened un
til the department were on the scene
with the two big .chemicals.
Father Van der Pol, who was at
Fort Liscum on the steamer Evans
on his return from Cordova did not
know of the fire until his arrival here
at midnight. He has requested the
Prospector to extend to the Valdez
Volunteer Fire department and to the
many volunteers who aided to extin
guish the flames, his heartiest thanks
and the thanks of his congregation
for their excellent work.
The vestments which were destroy
ed were garments of beautiful work
manship, some handpainted, others
| handembroidered and the loss will be
heavy. No insurance was carried on
the church.

Organization Perfected to Arrange for
the Greatest Celebration Ever
Held In Valdez.
Persuant to a call from the Order
of Pioneers, a delegate from each of
the fraternal organizations, commer
cial bodies and the Civic League met
in the city hall yesterday and decid
ed that the National holiday should
be observed with a grand Celebration.

discussion it was decided to offer $300
in prizes for the double-jack rock
drilling contest, $200 to the winners,
$75 to the second team and $25 to
the third best team. «
It was also decided to have a tug
of war, which proved so popular last
year. The question of celebrating
two or three days was left open to
obtain the wishes of the business men
in this regard.
A full program will be arranged,
including sports of all kinds on land
and water, base bair game, and the
whole affair to be concluded with a
grand dance. .The following were
named as heads of the respective
committees, they to name two oth
ers to assist them:
Finance, S. Blum; decoration and

rade, F. J. Cameron; transportation
and excursions, C. C. Rudolph.
Marshal of the day, W. M. Finical.
PROBING STEAMER (WRECK; s'
KENDALL GIVES TESTIMONY
(Continued from page 1.)
No blame is laid by the passengers
to the crew, whom, all say, acted
promptly and made every effort to
help the passengers to the deck so
that they might have a better oppor- !
tunity to save themselves. Many wo- *
men lost thfir lives because they in
sisted upon dressing before they would
go on deck and in consequence the
inrushing waters prevented them from
working their way up the stairways,
down which poured tons of water.
The great majority of those drowned
went down with the ship.
The crew fought like (lemons to
launch the boats after the accident,
but the sudden listing of the steam
er made it impossible. All of the
boats on the port side were under
water, having been carried under
when the ship listed, while those of
the starboard side were caught in
such a position as to he unlaunchable.
Storstadt Reaches Quebec.
The Storstadt geached Quebec yes
terday in safety, the bulkheads hav
ing withstood the strain and the boat
is now docked and will be abandoned
by her owners, as the Canadian Pa
cific Steamship line have libeled her
for several millions of dollars because
of the accident, as it is claimed that!
the Storstadt’s captain was at fault)
and failed to takeproperprecautions
to prevent an accident.
Government to Start Probe.
QUEBEC, June 1.—The government
will start a probe at once into fh^
causes of the accident. Great indigHj
nation is felt here against Captain
Anderson, who commanded the Btor
stadt, because he failed to aid propr
erly in the rescue work and for back-]
ing so far’away‘that he cOuld be of
little assistance. , It'is, planned to
raise .the Express of Ireland in or
der that the bodies may be recovered
or else to dynamite, the hull so that
the bodies thay be released and flbat
to the surface and also prevent the
hull of the ship, from forming a .big
bar, which would be a menace tb
navigation.
Recover 'Bullion.
One million dollars worth of bul
lion from the silver mines at Cobalt,
went down wlth the khip and it’ Will
be recovered If possible.
