A MENACE TO NAVIGATION.
Effort Is Being Made to Float the
Bupeve Skvlipht

An effort is to be made to raise the hull
of the bugeye Skylight, which was in
jured In a collision with the sloop Enola
of Gunston about a week ago, In order
that she may be taken to a shipyard for
repairs. The vessel is drifting about in
the river. according to reports, and is a
menace to navigation.
Early in the week she was reported as
being in thirty feet of water, with only
her topmasts showing. Yesterday Capt
Slye of the tug James o. Carter reports
he saw her lying in shoal water, with
part of her decks exposed, off Holland
point.
At the time Of the accident the Skylight
was on her way to this city with a cargo
of watermelons, and it is supposed that
her hold Is still full of them, and this is
giving her hull additional buoyancy,
though ii is full of water. The damage
done the vessel is reported as not ex-
tsnsive, and she can be repaired and put
in condition for service again at moder-
ate cost. The Skylight has been running
melons from the eastern shore Of Chesa-
peake bay to this city throughout the en-
tire season. -. -. =
