V0LGA HAS UGLY EXPERIENCE
Purser Tuttle Of Telegraph Now on
kamm Steamer undine-Arasonia
Fails to Find Passable Bar
Costa Riea In.

The steamer Volga OF the Babbidge
fleet, underwent quite an experience
on Saturday night last. or rather early
on Sunday morning. 1t seems
that she was moored to the Flavel
pier on rather short lines the night
before, starboard side 10 the dock, and
the falling of the tide gave her a sharp
list to port, so much so that the wa
ters Of the bay poured into her. over
her low covering aboard and filled the
hold. She was in bad fix when dis
covered on Sunday morning and the
steamers Electro and Miller were
quickly hauled alongside and she was
limped up to the Leathers ship yard.
where she was beached and pumped
clear of water, and then put on the
ways for an overhauling. She was
damaged somewhat by the vessels that
had her in tow, the easterly wind
kicking up quite a sea and grinding
her badly on the passage to the yard.
al least to the extent of so, as esti-
mated by Mr.. Leathers who examined
her thoroughly. Ii will be the better
part of three weeks before she is again
ready for service as II is the infan-
tion of her owners to install a new
boiler while she is under repair.

a bit late in docking here. She left
up early, however, with a good grist
above and below stairs.
