this morning, The Harvest Queen and
the Andrew NJ. Church. three-decker
excursion boats. and three canal boats
and the tug John Duy. at the foot OF
West oath street caught fire and several
bales of burning straw from these
boats were driven by the wind right
under the bows OF the Niagara which
was anchored in the stream.
The crew of the Niagara, aided by
the fireboats, kept playing hose upon
the bales until the wind and tide
swirled them away. The fire is believ-
ed to have been caused by tramps. who
stole shelter on the Harvest Queen. She.

filled with bales of straw. The dam
age TO each of the excursion boats is
$4,000 10 each of the canal boats $4,000
