PERRY’S SHIP ROOSEVELT
TO BE SOLI) UNDER HAMMER
SEATTLE- July 13— Admiral
Peary’s staunch old ice ship, the
Roosevelt, which carried the noted ex
plorer to the northern edge of Grant
l«and on his trip to the North Pole*,is
lying in the Puget Sound navy yard at*
Bremerton- Wash.* waiting to go on
the auction block to be sold to the
highest bidder.
Possibly the Arctic will lure the
Roosevelt back to do battle with her
old foes, the ice seas and the white
floes* for she may be auctioned to bid
ders who will convert her into a trad
er for sendee along the Siberian and
Alaskan coasts. There is also a possi
bility that she will bo converted into
a fishing boat for work in the North
Pacify
The Roosevelt’s prow always point
ed ’north* Admiral Peary once said in
telling of his trip to the North* and
it would not be surprising if the host
went back into her own element. Ad
miral Peary said that no matte* how
hard a battle she might have with
the ice or how hard a storm she might:
ride* she would always be found head
ed toward the top of the world.
Although the Roosevelt may live up

to Admiral Peary’s statement that she
was the “ablest ship ever built for ,
Arctic exploration*’’* she has outlived j
her usefullness in the service the gov- ,
I ernment has used her in on the North
Pacific since 1015. Her cargo capa*!
’ city is too small and her speed too ,
low for work* it has been said.
Since 1015. when the Roosevelt
came through the Panama canal after
being sold to the United States bu*
reau of fisheries, she has been making
three or four voyages each year with •
government supplies to the fur and
fish stations in Alaska and on the Pri*
hiloff islands. This year* on account of
the growth of the stations* the bureau .
i decided the Roosevelt was not large .
| enough to handle the supplies.
So. while the Roosevelt’s small size |
was an asset in her Arctic work, it
became a liability when she entered •
the carrying trade. She is 1S4 feet
long over all by 35 feet beam and Id
feet draft. Her builders figured the .
smaller she was built the stronger she
would be.
The Roosevelt was designed in 1904
by Captain C. R. Oix. a noted ship
builder. She cost about $50000. and
was built by the Peary Arctic Club.
Peary used the Roosevelt when he
went to the then farthest north* 87.0<
degrees, in 1900. and also three 4vears ,
later- when he made the pole.
