100000 feet Of pine logs, to tow
them to this city. A succession
of gales prevented any progress, and
at last the coal gave out, compelling
them to leave the raft anchored last
Sunday evening while they went for
fuel. The tug got to Bell with her
last chunk of coal in the furnace,

ply of slabs that enabled her to run
here. The Ralph coaled up here
Monday and cleared to regain her

The fire at the hemlock bark ex-

Of about 250 cords of hemlock bark.
The fire is supposed to have been
caused by an incendiary. For at
least two days several streams of
water had to be kept on the edges
of the burning pile, until the fire
had consumed the bark. A fire in
big pile of bark is difficult one
to put out. On three sides of the
burning pile were great stacks of
bark, and the work of the firemen
was to confine the fire to the burn
ing pile, in which they were sue
cessful.

can be estimated. The company lost
one shed, several hundred cords of
dry excelsior wood, a considerable
amount of baled fine excelsior and
part of second shed burned. The
fire was q difficult one to subdue,
but hard work and good manage
ment on the part of the firemen and

under control. We understand the
company will now build "a ware
