ing through bills of lading and
through rates. Capt. Rees is her
chief purser, and has for his aids
MesSrs. Dan. Sullivan and Johnny
Briggs-two clever and aocommo-
dating clerks.
Captain J. T.. WashingtOn's mann
moth w~harfboat, the hull of the r.
L. Lee, is rapidly progressing in
her repairs. She is 800 feet long and
GO feet in width. She will be here by
the first of September. We pre-
dict for her success us a wharfboat
in a business point as she was in
speed as a steamer. Captain Wash
ington's experience on the river is
our guarantee for this prediction.
Captain Albert Smith,. of the
Alberta, has contracted with The
Towards, at Jacksonville, for a.
new steamer for the upper White
river trade, to be finished and ready
for business by the first of October.
She is ITO feet long, "a feet beam,
3 feet hold, and the cabin and out
fit the same as the Alberta.
The Illinois goes out in place of
the Phil Allin this evening, the
latter laying up for one week for
some slight repairs. The Illinois
during her retirement underwent a
thorough overhauling and is now
in better order than she was last
season. She sits the water well
since she has been Strengthened and
will give a good account of herself
the coming season.
The towboat Mary Ann, which
passed here Monday morning with
a big tow of coal for New Orleans,
stranded ten pieces of her tow in
Hardin's chute, opposite Austin,
yesterday, and sunk two barges Of
coal which viii prove a total loss.
Her entire fleet is in a precarious
condition, with danger of losing
several pieces of her tow. The ten
boats aground are leaking badly,
and will have to be lightened of.
The Charles Morgan, Captain
Albert Stein, viii be here to-mor-
row morning and leave Glenn's
wharf boat at 10 o'clock for New
Orleans, making all principal way
landings. She will leave New Or
leans on Tuesday next with a re-
turn trip, The Morgan runs on
schedule time and makes direct
connection at Cincinnati with all
railroads running East and West.
Her cabin and staterooms are fur
nished luxuriantly, while her tables
contain everything edible hat the
markets afford. On her last up
trip she registered 234 cabin and
IS deck passengers, and during the
season has carried double the num-
Der of people of any boat plying
between New Orleans and Cincin-
natl. A better indication than this
could not be desired Of her great
popularity and the esteem in which
her officers are held. Captain Al
bert Stein is an experienced and
careful boatman and will always be
found watching with jealous care
the interests of travellers and ship
pers. Harry Stein, the Morgan's
purser, is one of those clever and
agreeable gentlemen who always
cast sunshine on those around him,
while Mr.. Burnham, his efficient
assistant, looks zealeusly after the
freight department. To those con-
templating a trip up or down the
river we commend the Charles
Morgan.
