SWUNG INTO A DREDGE.
The birmingham While Getting to
Her Dock Damages Drcdse No. ..


The steamship City Of Birmingham
swung into Sanford Ross dredge No 3.
and lighter lying alongside. while get
ting to her dock early yesterday morning
The dredge and lighter were torn from
their anchorage and badly damaged. and
the City OF Brmineham's bulwarks on
her hurricane deck We're stove i'm.
The dredge and lighter We're anchored
opposite the Ocean Steamship wharf,
about 30 feet out in the stream. The Biz
mingham, in swinging into her mooring, at
the wharf struck the drcdge and lighter
on her starboard side aft. The steamer
was about three quarters around ana the
blow was almost a broadside.
The dredge and lighter broke away from
their anchorage, and drifted up stream on
the south side OF the river and landed
about 400 feet above where they first lay.
As soon as the nature of the accident was
learned and that no lives were lost the
dredge was made fast and the broken tim
bers were picked up. The Birmingh ham
swung into her wharf in a few minutes.
y survey was called on The dredge ana
lighter in the afternoon. The board con-
sisted OF Port Warden Virgins, Mai j.
4. stewart Lloyds agent, and II. j.. VIII
link, ship carpenter. II was accompanied
by Agent Anderson of the Ocean Steam
ship Company, Capt. Burg OF the City of
Birmingham, Capt. II. NJ. Branch and
The board made a fun report Of the
damages. Three of the dredge's spuds
were broken, her hanging shed was split
brace rods. staples ana frames carried
away and her ropes broken and over , coo
feet of rope, 100 feet of hemp ana zoo
feet of steel rope We're lost, besides other
minor damages. The surveyors recon-
mended that the articles lost be replaced
and that the damages to the dredge be
repaired. The total damage to the dredge
and lighter is estimated to be in tho
neighborhood of 81 200. The damage 10
the City of Birmingham is comparative
ly small
Neither side has libeled the other. The
Ocean Steamship people claim the Ross
Company is at fault for anchoring in
the channel, and the Ross people claim
the Birmingham was at fault for running
into the dredge. il will probably be car
ried into the courts as a test case whether
the dredge had any right to be at an-

ARRESTED FOR ROBBERY.
One Stranger Attempts to Capture
AnOther's Money.

J. II. Lackey, white man, was arrested
by Detective Scully last night on the
charge of assaulting and beating and at
tempting to rob John Latelle, another
white man.
Latelle went to the barracks and stated
that Lackey had assaulted and attempted
to rob him in the street about o'clock.
His appearance showed that he had been
badly beaten up. He said that he came
down on the steamer from New York a
day or two ago, and that Lackey was a
passenger with him.
that Lackey evidently believed that he
was well fixed and attempted to work
him. Failing in this he assaulted and
attempted to rob him, but was unsuccess-
full. Detective Scully found Lackey at a
house on East Broad street.
