ALMOST A SEVERE COLLISION
u. S. VESSEL DAMAGED.
The Washington steamer Newport
News was narrowly saved from q Sc
rious collision yesterday morning. The
steamer was backing from her pier.
she slipped an eccentric on her shaft
and her machinery became unmanage-
able a strong ebb tide was running
and she was rapidly drifting down on
the u. S. converted cruiser Vixen.
which was coaling off Hospital Point.
The whistle of the Newport News called
vigorously for help and n smash seemed
inevitable, when the u. S. tug Mohawk.
which had & coal barge alongside the
Vixen. cast loose from her tow and
skillfully slipped between the Vixen
and the steamer adroitly catching the
latter and giving her II sheer to star
beard. thus saving the Vixen the New
port News just touching her lightly.
The Mohawk then checked the steamer
and lowed her to her pier, where, in n
few minutes, the machinery was re-
paired and she went about her business.
The MohawkS captain came in for live
ly praise from the onlookers. who en-
nected serious accident. The affair
caused great excitement for a few min
utes and the crew stood ready to the
boats until the danger was over
The last OF the cotton from the
wrecked British steamship Ariosto was
brought in yesterday by the Merritt
tug Rescue and barges VIM. Coley and
Hagerty. The steamship being $50
yards neater-the beach facilitatesss.a,,s
somewhat, and her cargo of grain is
rapidly being thrown overheard, being
w'ater-soaled and spoiled. The Nrer-
ritts still expect to save the vessel.
