Ross & Howell TOwboats Sold.

Charles W. Morse of New York has
gives him practical monopoly of the tow
ing business in Maine east of Portland, as
well as Of freight and passenger steamers.
The fleet consists of the tugs Bismarck,
Ralph Ross, Delta and Walter Ross, the
two first large and powerful boats The
price paid is understood to have been about
$40,OOo The boats will pass under Mr..
Morse's control in February. Capt. Walter
Ross is to act as manager of the PenObscot
river business under the new control. In
connection with this transfer the Bangor
Daily News gave the following towboat
history ~--
The first tugs on the Penobscot river
were sidewheelers, but the first of any con-
siderable power was the Tarratine, which
came on in 1874 and which had a monopoly
of the business until 1850, when the May
Queen was brought on by Capt. Jerry
French of Prospect. The May Queen was
run year or two by Capt French, who
then sold her to the ship chandlery firm of
Pendleton & Ross, who placed her in COM
mand of Capt. George W. Snow. In 1854 a
Bucksport syndicate had the famous tug
Nautilus built by Neafie & Levy, at Phila-
delpha, and at the same time Capt Hugh
Ross had the Terror built in the same
yards, their engines being exact duplicates.
Capt. Mark CHM commanded the Nautilus
and Capt. George w. Snow was promoted
from the May Queen to the Terror.
After a year or two of sharp competition,
the Bucksport syndicate sold out to Ross,
who tlen had monopoly of the business,
with three boats. The Nautilus was sunk
off Wellt1eet, Cape Cod, on her way to New
York, where she had been sold. The Ter
ror is said to be still af1oat on the Hudson
river. In 1867 the Walter Ross was built for
Capt. Ross by Neafe & Levy; in 1870 the
same concern built the Ralph Ross, in 1871
the big tug Charles B. Sanford, and in 1873
the Howell. The Nautilus and Terror were
sold at about the time the first of these new
boats came on. The Bismarck was built in
1890 By Neafie & Levy.
me Ihafies Is. San1of9 was sold III 1851
to the Luckenbachs of New York, and is
still towing on the Sound the Howell was
sold in 1893 to Portsmouth. N. H., parties,
and Is now towing there. The Delta was
purchased by Ross & Howell at about the
time The Howell was sold. The Ralph
Ross cost 25,O0O, the Bismarck $780,
900 and the Charles B. Sanford $35,OOO.
Fol many years Capt. Hugh Ross was
alone in the business, and then for some
years he was associated with Gilbert Howell
under the firm name of Ross & Howell
Both Capt. Hugh Ross and Mr.. Howell are
now lead, and for some years past the bust
ness mas been conducted by Capt. Walter
Ross 1t was not until 1895 that the Ross
tugs lad any opposition worth mentioning.
In that year the Knickerbocker Steam Tow
age CO.'S boats began to do business here,
and have continued more or less actively
ever since.

THE BELFAST SHOE FACTORY.

The shoe factory situation, which has
been in a doubtful state since early fall, has
now reached a more hopeful stage After
the death of Mr.. Critchett, of the firm of
Critchett, Sibley & Co., September 21, 1900,
the business was re-Organized and two cor
porations were formed, the Critchett, Sibley
Co. to manufacture shoes and the Manufac-
turing Real Estate Co., to own and manage
the real estate. The new arrangement went
effect January 1, 1901. A. c. Sibley was
president and II. P. Thompson, treasurer,
of both corporations. During the early part
of the year the business prospered, 800
hands were employed, and the fortnightly
pay roll averaged $1,000. August 10th, the
business passed into the hands of receivers,
and was found to be considerably involved.
Mr.. Sibley died the next day, and the factory
was shut down as soon as the orders Oh
hand were finished. Everybody realized
that it would be a severe blow to the city if
the business should be closed permanently,
and measures were at once taken to re-
establish it. A meeting of citizens was held
September 5th, at which the employees of the
factory offered to assist all in their power,
and committee was appointed to act in
conjunction with the assignees to re-estab-
lish the business. The assignees are Messrs.
Vim. B. Swan, t. W. Pitcher and r. F. Dun
ton, and the committee Messrs. F. a. Wech,
E. A. Sherman, B. D. Field, J. e. Durham,
j. E. Wilson, F. G. White and J. H. Howes.
Correspondence was opened with different
shoe manufacturing firms, and representa-
tives came to Belfast to look over the buSi-
ness. After much work and investigation
into the standing of the concerns represent
ed an arrangement was verbally made with
the firm of Wright Il Aldoes of Chelsea,
Mass, and definite proposition was receiv-
ed from them ON Christmas day. They Offer
to lease the building for term of years at
$1,000 per year, and to buy the machinery in
the factory. They ask that the citizens loan
them $4,000 at per cent and that they be
exempt from taxation for ten years. Thurs
day forenoon Mr.. Wright, of Wright &
Adde'S, came to Belfast and met the di-
rectors of the National Banks, the assignees
and members of the committee. He showed.
them that the firm is doing a good business
in Chelsea, is perfectly reliable and with Il
high financial rating. The committee pre-
pared subscription paper which they circu-
lated among the business men of the city,
and the $4,000 was easily raised. Monday
forenoon the whole amount had been sub
scribed. Mr.. Wright was again in Belfast
Tuesday and it was found that there are
some details on which he and the committee
do not fully agree. 1t is hoped, however,
that the matter will be satisfactorily ad-
justed.
