PERTH AMBoy, March l5 1897. The tug
G. w. Pride, after battling with the elements
for nine days landed her tow safely in Sandy
Hook bay. She left Brunswick, Ga, March
4th with the barge Ocean Belle laden with
80 900 railroad ties, or 30, 900 feet of yellow
pine lumber 1t has been remarked by
many seafaring men, "Wh hat could a tug do
with a barge coming around Hatteras :"
Now the G.. W Pride is one of the small
ocean tugs-only - tons net-but she has
lowed around Hatteras since last July some
100000 feet of lumber. She has towed the
barge Ocean Belle from Baltimore to Gal
weston and Pensacola and back to Galveston,
and from the latter port to Brunswick and
Perth Amboy, without an accident. She
was in the hurricane of last September, that
was 50 destructive to shipping, with light
barge, and went through it without trouble.
She left Charleston Dec. 9Th with the Ocean
Belle and since that time the barge and tug
have not parted company. They have been
through three heavy southeast gales and
two northers in the Gulf of Mexico, and her
last passage from Brunswick here was a
very rough one. Many tie has been drop
ped between Cape Florida and Hatteras, yet
the Ocean Belle arrives with the same num-
Der she starts with.
The only way to make barge towing at
sea perfectly safe is to build good sea-going
tugs, load them within reason, and put ra-
tional sea-faring men in their tugs. Then
shackle them together with good MANILA
hawser and sixty fathoms Of chain and no
trouble will be experienced i'll towing barges
at sea. At the present time, in most in
stances, barges are overloaded. MANY of
the barges are controlled by a superintend-
ent, VINO has never been outside of Long Is
land Sound. He sits in his office and tells
how much cargo they must put in, and then
puts on tug to tow her which may have
been used in towing on bays and river and
which has had no experience in towing at
sea- A BARGE MAN.
