VESSEL LOSES
LIGHT IN 1918
Lake Navigation So Far Unmarked
by Large Accidents

Navigation losses on the great lakes
have been slight for the season OF
1913, according To figures compiled by
government engineers. only two boats
valued at $4,000 have been total
losses
The steamer T.. NJ. Peck, owned by
Nrank w Smith of Milwaukee. Wis.
was a total loss following the eXplo-
sion of its boilers and the barge Crete,
was declared total loss as the re-
suit of damage sustained I'm collision
with the steamer r.. Il. Squire. near
Buffalo.
While there have been a number
of accidents there have been fewer
collisions than usual and none was
serious except in the case of the
Crete. Bottom damage has caused the
largest expense So far. About the most
expensive of these accidents was that
to the steamer ID. IL. Meacham. esti-
mated to have cost $4,000. The Mech
am touched ground in the Livingston
channel near Detroit.
a number of uninsured ships have
had grounding accidents, but none
was much damaged. Compared with
1912, the losses covered by insurance
are small, and the uninsured risks
have given comparatively little work
for the shipbuilders.
AS the Canadian ships are neither
in the Great Lakes Protective asso-
citation, nor in the American trade, t..
:. accident statistics pertaining to the
lakes do not include Canadian tonnage
unless an American vessel is involved.
