The barge Ell gin lies on the b3ttomt of
Grand Marais harbor, close to the west
side breakwater, where it sank last Sun
daw afternoon. The >Elgin left Duluth
IN Saturday with a cargo of ITO tons of
hay for the lumber camp at. Rowland,
being IN tow of the tug Crosby, Capt.
Shea. Every thing went we'll until out
side Splitrock, when the barge was found
be leaking badly. Capt. Shay decided
to try to reach this harbor. The barge
was not rugged with pumps but the
character Of the cargo made it likely
that she wou|d not go to the bottom, SO
he continued on his course. Before
reaching Grand Marais the Elgin was
completely submerged and, nearly her
entire deck load was carried away by
the waves washing over her. The 'sreater
part of the cargo is in the hole but this
also Will be a total loss, amounting in all
to over 81 900. 49,
