LOST IN THE BARGES.
A Correspondent Writes Discussion
on a Timely Topic.

To THE Editor OF THE NEWS:
SIR see under Associated Press dis
patches as follows:
"Rhode Islands coast has rarely been
the scene Of a greater horror than that OF
Friday night, when five big helpless
barges were sunk, and pounded to pieces
on its Shores"
That does not cover the case, for the
horrible and sad part OF the affair vas the
drowning OF helpless men and women on
them. Are the newspaper reports of the
terrible affair all there is to be of it? Is
there no law to prevent any company
from loading five or more barges with coal
to nearly the waters edge and then
hitching them behind one tugboat not so
large as one of the barges and try to tow
to some port. The hawser from the tug
must be strong enough to hold and battle
with the terrible waves with a load it can
hardly manage in calm weather.
Then, again, the barges and hawser will
stretch out quarter of mile, nearly, as
they have them generally, To be in the
way of passing vessels which in a storm
or fog could not avoid sailing across the
line, Then one or more OF the barges
might break loose, and II so they
and tho crew are helpless and and at the
mercy OF the WdVes. lniS Is very Serl-
Gus matter and should be looked after.
The seafaring men havs enough to face
without being subject to unneces-
sary peril. Don't think for one
minute the owners OF the barges or
tug would jeopardize their lives
on one of those heavy laden boats, as thoy
are pulled along in good weather, say
nothing about being helplessly tossed
about in storm and no possible chance for
help In case of an accident. The question
Is: will this evil still be continued
and the perils OF the tempest-tossed
sailors be made more perilous
than it should be to fill the Golfers of some
company. Is the company or companies
not responsible for ell losses by doing as
they do?
Will not something grow out OF this
loss to arouse the people to try and stop
this cruel work?
Yours truly,
