the passenger steamer State OF Ohio and
landed at Toledo.
The barge Margaret OlwiIl left KEEL
ly's island at six o'clock Wednesday
night bound for Cleveland with a cargo
of stone. There was little or no wind
blowing and everything was favorable
for pleasant run. AT eight o'clock the
wind began TO blow from the northwest
and the little boat with thousand tons
capacity began 10 go al "A lively clip. At
ten o'clock the gale commenced and the
wind blew az the rate of so miles an
hour Suddenly the gale turned to the
northeast and Capt. Brown found that
the boat was making but little head
way and concluded the only thing TO do
was TO turn back and go with the
storm. According 10 the story of Coyle
il was two o'clock when the captain
gave the order to turn about. The yes
sci had turned half way round when
the rudder chain parted and in an in
slant the boat was at the mercy of the
storm. She was caught between two
waves and as she was borne along the
top of one of them she rolled over on
the side. The cabins came loose from
the hull of the barge and floated on the
water while the rest of the ship went
10 the bottom. Whether any of the
occupants were able TO take advantage
of this il is not known. but Coyle says
he saw Schinski, the second engineer,
and Hebron, the wheclman, after the
boat went down, but that was all. Coyle
caught hold of part of the after cabin
and climbed upon it.
