ADMIRAL LIRE!
The steaner Admiral Farragut
reached Cordova at 9 o’clock this
morning on her initial voyage to
Southwestern Alaska. With her in
terior repainted, her carpeting and
other furnishings in a large part re
newed and althogether looking like a
bran new liner, the double-bottom,
twin screwed vessel was met at the
dock by a large number of people.
The Farragut takes the place of the
liner Admiral Watson, now submerged
at the Bell street pier, at Seattle,
where she was rammed by the freight
er Paraiso. On the Watson's return to
commission, the Farragut, however,
will remain on the Northern route,
giving the company three vessels in
the Seattle-Alaskan run, the third be
ing the Admiral Evans. The Farra
gut has been operated in the Seattle
San Francisco service since she was
purchased by the company last year.
The first-class staterooms on the
upper deck remain as two-berth apart
ments, this arrangement having been
found popular with the traveling pub
lic. Twelve new first-class state
rooms were added in the after main
deck. Other additions include a bar
ber shop, a bar and an extra bath
room. To handle the increased quant
ity of ship stores that the liner will
have to carry on her new run, as com
pared with the California route, her
cold storage capacity was doubled.
Her steerage accommodations were in
creased from a limited number of
berths to care for 180 passengers.
The Farragut's passengers were as
follows:
For Cordova—J. L. Blanks, firant
Hoppe, W. C. Hoppe, H. W. Robbins,
W. J. La very.
For Katnlla—Robert McHardle.
