SUNK the SCHOONER.
A Barge Sends the George Hurst
to the Bottom.
Wreck Now in Plain View of
the Battery.
No One Knows How the Accident
Happened.

With all sail set and as upright as
II floating on the water, the two masted
schooner George Hurst lies off the Bat
terry on the rock bottom, where the
North and East Rivers meet.
The wreck forms an unusual and in
teresting sight for passengers on the
ferry-boats and excursion steamers. as
well as to visitors to the Battery 1t
Is menace to navigation, as It partly
blocks up the channel
Should the sand with which the
schooner Is laden be shifted by the tide,
she Is liable to keel over and make the
work of lighting the wreck difficult, IL
not impossible.
The accident which sent the schooner
to the bottom was an unusual one. She
was in tow OF the tug boat Mary f..
Laughlin, loaded with sand and bound
for Kingston. N. Y, from Port Eaton,
l.. /.
Rounding at the Battery at the same
moment at noon came the barge Mary

bridge iron from the Central Railroad
or New Jersey wharyes, to the Ward

Both tugs signaled and received
answering whistles. Each had about
one hundred and nifty feet OF hawser
distance OF bout twenty feet. Then
the barge suddenly seemed to veer,
and ran head on into the schooner.
The sharp prov found Judgement in
the port side OF the vessel. and for a
few minutes held her straight in the
water Capt Hubert Cafrrey, OF the
George Hurst, and his c-ew Of two men.
William Dougherty and James Conlan.
took advantage OF the opportunity af-
fordel them ana clamberei onto the
barge.
The big boat Mary Laughlin backed UP
to the barge and took the captain and
| his men aboard
The Carroll Boys tugged on the haw-
ser until 1t pulled the brow OF the barge
| from the side of the schooner. For an
instant gaping hole In her port side
was seen. 1t was filled rapidly with
water, however and In less than two
tom as quickly and as quietly as she
would have rested In IL dry -dock, from
which the water had been freed.
Byron Stebbins, Captain of the Carroll
BoyS, had TINS to say concerning the nc-
cident:
1T is something ! don't quite under
stand; saw the schooner coming, and
gave 1t the right OF way by blowing one
whistle; got the proper answer and
went ahead.
Il had about 100 feet OF hawser out
on the barge and passed the Laughlin
In. good shape and clear for nearly the
whole hawser length. Then the barge
seemed to sheer IA bit and the next
thing ! knew she had run into the
schooner and held her there like you
would hold potato on a fark She
made big hole. too for ! had to do
some good dragging to get the barge
clear
The captain and men OF the schooner
got on without a wetting and went or
on the Laug him. ! don't blame any one
Tor the accident but did hear that the
captain OF the Laughlin was at dinner
AZ the time. The schooner was between
NIFTY and sixty tons, | should say, and
was worth $500 or 5000
II Is said that the George Hurst can
not be raised until the nifty or sixty tons
