MEET DIFFICULTIES 81
IN RAISING BOAT
River Has Risen and Diver Cannot
Get Into Hull With His Suit
On.

Quincy Wing: The government
steamer "Nauvoo" which sunk at it's
winter mornings in the bay last week,
Is not to be raised as easily as anticE
pated. Since the boat went down, the
river has come up. The water raised
foot within day after the Nauvoo
sunk and has been steadily rising
since, until today It was over the
main deck. The diver who arrived a
couple of days ago, has plugged the
intakes in the hull from the outside,
and 1926 yards of canvas five feet wide
has been stretched around the hull,
and nailed to the frame work of the
guards. The diver cannot get into the
hull with his suit on, so it is impos-
sible to plug up the holes from the in
side as is often done when steam
boats with wooden hulls are floated.
When the steel hull was made, the
opening in the main deck was made
large enough for only an ordinary
man, not encountered by diving suit
or unnecessary clothing and equiD-
ment.
The canvas is stretched around the
boat SO as to cover the leak or leaks
wherever they may be. The action OF
the water running into the hull will
suck the canvas to the holes and hold
IL there. Then by pumping the wa
ter out of the hold. the boat can be
floated and once more afloat, the men
can get into the hold to make the
necessary repairs It is possible more
canvas will be needed because Of the
river having risen so high. Clatt Ad-
ans furnished the canvaSnow around
the boat, which was all In one piece,
325 feet long, Unless there Is unex-
pected delay or trouble not now an
ticfpated, the pumps may be started
tomorrow morning. Captain Mills who
is in charge.of the Job, has c-ew OF
men at work, but progress has been
slow because OF the high water and
ice.
