Cargo for Scotland.

The Russian schooner Kaupo, which |
cleared yesterday for Ayr, has a car
go of lumber, loaded at the G. F. & A.
wharf, and will probably get away
some time today if the weather is
favorable. This is one of the small

Pensacola for cargo in some time, al

Had His Arm Broken.
Capt. "Pete" Forbes, who was in
command of the Mobile steam tug
Echo, which came here and towed the

his arm in a sling. Some few days
ago, it was reported, Capt. Forbes,
while experimenting the dropping of
an anchor, suffered blow from the
winch handle, and sustained a severe
fracture, one of the bones of his arm
being snapped. With the "pet" arm,
however, he takes his vessel to Cuba,
and thence will likely secure contracts
for towing to other gulf ports.
