find CARS IN MUD
Mystery to Passengers on Ferry
Boats Finally Solved.
VARIOUS KINDS Of SURMISES
Object Of Strange Craft, Anchored
Along Manhattan Side Of North
River, Of Considerable Inter-
est to Commuters.

Passengers on North river ferry
boats who have had a mystery on their
hands for some time past were graft
fled the other morning when the solu-
ton vas presented right to their very
eyes.
Considerable interest was evoked by
the presence of q huge barge that was
a cross between q dredger and q freight
car float. The strange craft, which
was heavily manned, has been an
chored along the Manhattan side all
the way from Fourteenth street down
to Chambers, and although there We're
always signs of activity aboard one
of the commuters was able to find out
what it was all about, says New York
Sun. Occasionally a diver could be
seen going down and every morning
men on the deck would be casting out
loaded lines as If they were engaged
in a 1G-pound fy-casting competition.
Many Surmises Made.
There were oil sorts Of surmises as
to the purpose Of the vessel. A man
from Montclair suggested a hunt for
pirate gold. An East Orange citizen
of a practical turn was sure the work
ers were laying a cable. Glen Ridge
Clipped in with something about mine
laying and Rutherford reckoned it
might be plotting out the harbor for
the war department. Little Falls
rather suspected they were digging the
channel deeper and so it went.
The guessing has been good all win
ter, but nobody came nea the facts.
Finally fortunate travellers on the
8 10 witnessed the climax.
Mystery II Solved.
The big derrick on the deck swung
around and down. Half a dozen
voices shouted directions. A diver
waved his hand like a trainman to
someone inside and finally a voice
hoarser than all the rest beloved some
unintelligible order. An engine coughed
and groaned. the derrick began to lift
and In a jiffy there swung into sight
what? A freight car.
Last fall q barge was sunk on
Fourteenth street and several loaded
freight cars were sent to the bottom.
