Oath Times, Dec. 81

Here is an opportunity for the Cham
Der of Commerce to get busy and find
out why Bath is being cut out as a port
of discharge in favor of Portland, 80
miles out of the way in this particular
instance, for the cargo was going to
Gardiner.
This week there arrived in the Ken
nebec, Consolidation barge No. 7, coal
laden for Gardiner. under the direction
of the Boston office of the Baltimore
people. The plan was for the barge to
proceed in tow of the tugs of the Bath
towage people up the river, but Capt.
William G. Small notified the Boston
office that he did not care to take the
risk of having the barge and tugs
frozen in by sudden cold snap, as it
was late in the season and one of his
tugs had already had trouble with ice
in recent cold weather. He suggested
on Wednesday morning to the Boston
office that the coal be unloaded at the
NJ. c. r. r. wharf in Bath and shipped
by rail up river.
While in his office Capt. Small had
Wednesday second call from the Bos-
ton representatives of the owner IL,
which the Boston men stated that they
had been informed by high official of
the NJ. c. r. r. at Portland that their
road had no facilities for handling coal
at Bath and for the barge to be sent
to Portland instead. SO the barge with
it's cargo was towed across to Portland
and Bath lost for labor alone around
$3.50. to say nothing Of what the sup
plies and purchases of the barge people
would have been, had the coal been
taken out here.
What is Baths loss is Portland's
gain.
On learning the story Times man
sought Stevedore James c. Mulligan
and asked him if he could have unloaded
the cargo at the NJ. c. r. r. wharf.
Mr.. Mulligan said that he certainly
could have done so easily as there are
three derricks for just this purpose on
the railroads wharf, two of which they
are using right along.
IL have with my men," said Mr.. Null
ligaD. "unloaded 1900 tons of coal from
schooner Douglas Dearborn in IS hours
using the three derricks you see there
ready for use right now" He added
that with two derricks there and two
crews he would guarantee to discharge
600 tons a day. with ease. working only
two matches.
There is the unjust showing What
is Bath going to do about it? Is Bath
eternally going to play second fiddle in
this manner to Portland? Are we to
tame!y submit to this unbearable dis
elimination by the NJ. C. r. r. against
Bath in favor of Portland? Let the
Chamber of Commerce take action and
find out.
