IN LAKE MICHIGAN
Illinois Training Ship Lies on Ledge
All Day-Damage Not Sc
rious.

Mackinaw City. Mich, Aug. 9.-The
steamer DOrOthea, training-ship of the
Illinois naval reserves. ran aground on
a rocky bottom near Old Point Macki-
nav early yesterday morning and be-
fore assistance reached the boat it was
feared that serious results would follow
the accident. Later in the day the ship
was f1oated and Commodore Warren F.
Purdy announced that while the boat
is leaking and the hulk has been seri-
ously strained. the trouble can be rem
edied within a short time.
The training vessel had aboard the
naval militia. under orders for the an
nual cruise The boat was passing off
Mackinac island when a reef was en-
countered at a point opposite the de-
serted army post of the island resort.
The boat is lying within $50 feet of
the beach and has heavy list to star
board, due to the water that has been
shipped through the spreading of the
timbers No explanation is made why
the boat should ground on shoal that
is well known to lake mariners. Some
fog was prevalent but the lights of the
harbor could be seen, it is said. There
will likely be an investigation to place
the responsibility for the accident.
