GUNBOAT COMING
TO TAKE THE TOW,
The Nashville Ordered to Take
the Schooner With Govern
ment Lumber.
TUG NINA CALLED AT ONCE;
The Government Has Had Series Of DELAYS
in Getting Its Lumbsr-wilI Not
Go Until Tuesday.

An adverse fate seems to pursue the
government in the matter of getting
lumber for its werk ct the BROOKLYN
navy yard.
The force of men engaged in Load
ing the schooner jerome B. Look with
the cargo of government lumber ori.
RinAlly intended FOR the leaking brig
Robert Dillon, struck Thursday night,
refusing to do night work. This was
the third vsxatious delay in getting
this lumber of. the accident to the
schooner John Paul, the grounding of
the tug Robert Dillon, and, lastly. the
strike, made chain OF circumstances
that seemed to suggest the interposi-
ton Of fate.
The president Of the Longshoreman's
union went to the wharf Thursday
night and ordered the men to quit.
The only complaint was that they did
not care to work at night. They
went to work at the usual hour yes
terdAy morning.
About the time that all arrange
ments were completed for the tug
NiDa fn arc rt uy;fh h~~ 80 kL:. .eA.
noon, still another delay popped up
but this was Of the governments own
making.
Captain Bell, of the tug Nina, re-
csived q telegram yesterday afternoon
from Secretary Long, of the navy, or
dering him to return at cnoe to Brook
lyn. not waiting for the tow.
The telegram stated further that the
gunboat Nashville had been ordered
to proceed st once to Brunswick to
tow the Jsrsme B. Lock to New York.
The Nashville is now at Fortress
Monroe, Virginia, and will reach
here about Tuesday msrning. This
will delay the cargo Of lumber several
more days.
The Nina will ssii this morning for
New York. The ssorstary's tele-
graphic order did not stats what was
the occasion for the unex pected sum-
mons.
The gunbOat Nashville has never
visited this port and her coming will
be quite an event. The Nashville is
1871 tons displacement, 22O feet long,
3S feet beam and 1! feet draft. She is
of steel and was built at Newport
News. She is new ship.
Lieutenant Dougherty will return
on the Nina. he has made many
friends here, who are sorry that his
stay is necessarily so short.
Manager Danforth says the schooner
will be loaded and ready to sail this
afternoon.
