voyage around Hatteras to Jackson

daily until next Monday between the
hours of 10 o'clock in the morning and

Success will be towed to Newport News
by a steam tug. On arriving in Hamp-
ton Roads. the crew will be increa sed
by nine seamen, stone ballast Will be
slowed in the hold and the ship pro-
visioned for the voyage down the
coast. which may last five days OF five
weeks. II weather reports indicate
rough water and unfavorable winds.
Captain Smith will put the Success in
dry dock at Newport News and re-
cover her bottom with copper.
The voyage from Newport News to
Jacksonville promises to be even more
hazardous than the western passage
from England TO Boston. The Success,
124 years old, only 1876 feet long and
twenty nine feet beam, will attempt
the voyage under her own canvas and
without escort To minimize the dam
gers of Cape Hatteras. Captain Smith
Will run straight out to sea 500 miles
