The Keweenaw arrived up early Sun
day morning. She landed large amount
of freight at this port.
The schooner TrOwbridge completed
her repairs Tuesday and left that night
for DrummOnd's Island after ties.
The Marine City did not reach this
port until Sunday evening. For once
she and the Keweenaw failed to have a
race entering this harbor.
The Leviathan made short work with
the schooner VIM. Sturges, and is now at
work on the schooner Two Fannies, at
Elk Rapids trying to raise her.
The Schooner Rising Star arrived
Thursday afternoon and is taking on a
cargo of lumber from the ChebOygan
Lumber Company, for Chicago.
The Canadian propeller Northern
Queen bound from Chicago to COlling-
wood called in Thursday forenoon after
wood, and to take on some passengers.
The schooner Bay State arrived Sun
day with cargo of coal for Macarthur,
Smith & Co. She took on a cargo of
lumber from the same firm and cleard
for Chicago Thursday.
The .. s. supply steamer Dahlia
came to anchor off this port Thursday
afternoon. She is around delivering
supplies to the different light houses in
this district. She left yesterday forenoon.
The R. c. Wilson has been making
regular trips this week between ChebOy-
gan, Mackinac and Point st. Ignace,
leaving here at nine a. m. and returning
in the evening. We understand she will
continue regularly on the route.
Capt. Kirkland landed the schooner
c. ]. King safely at Detroit and returned
to this port with the Leviathan last
Saturday, cOaled up and left that even
ing to aid the schooner VIM. Sturges,
ashore on Plum island, at the mouth of
Green Bay. From there he will go to
Elk Rapids to raise the schooner Two
Fannies.
The propeller Mary did not get her
repairs completed until Thursday. She
left that evening after the arrival of the
steamers on the inland route for Macki-
nae and Point st. Ignace and will here
after run in connection with the boats
on the inland route, leaving the Point
every morning and returning in the
evening and will soon put in two trips
per day each way.
Then. Z. steamer, Garden City, play
ed ChebOygan the slip again yesterday,
going down, much to the disappointment
of passengers. There was no reason why
she should not have come in. Mr.. Carr,
the engineer, says there is thirteen feet
OF water all the way in, on the ranges.
Other boats of the line have been i'm and
gone out drawing from II feet inches
to II feet 5 inches and had no trouble.
If this line expects to retain the passen-
ger patronage, the boats must call i'm
with certainty. This makes three or
four times the Garden City has gone
down without stopping at this port.
The schooner ID. S. Austin appears to
have been In regular rampage last
week. In addition to the collision with
the TrOwbridge Monday morning, an ac-
count of which we gave in the TRIBUNE,
Tuesday night she collided with the
propeller Mary Jarecki, off Wolf river.
The schooner arrived in Chicago minus
most of her head-gear and a cat-head,
but with her jibboOm intact. The Jarecki
was struck on the starbOard side, and
had her fOrerigging torn away and her
injection and steam pipes broken. 1t
was narrow escape from most serious
disaster, and, as it is, the expense of re-
pairing the two crafts will amount to
quite an item.
