LEAVES MILWAUKEE TONIGHT
Hill Company Puts 'saugatuck'' Into
Commission to Take Care of Freight
Business Formerly Handled by the
Steamer Which Is to Go to France.

The steamer haywood which for
the past four years has been on the
Kenosha-Chicago run of the Hill Steam
boat Company, is off to do her bit to
help America and the Allies beat the
Kaiser. She made her last trip as a
freighter on Sunday evening and after
unloading her cargo at Kenosha she
steamed on up the lake to Milwaukee
where she was formally turned over
to the French government. The sale
of the Haywood to the French govern
mont was negotiated on last Saturday
and she at once went out of commits
sion as lake steamer and within a
month it is expected thae she will be
working along the French coast.
The haywood, one of the staunchest
boats ever built for the lake traffic, is
to be used as a mine sweeper. She
leaves Milwaukee tonight for Mont
real and from Montreal she will go to
New York and after little fitting up
for salt water she will steam away for
L c1IlOOs 1AO1 ShVI1O uPPO1 PoI GiOuo WILL
be cut away and she will be converted
into mine sweeper. Like a big barge
she will be used to sweep the seas
about France for mines laid by the
Germans. Two other lake steamers
"United States" and "Olcott" both
sailing from the port of Chicago, will
be in tie fotilla with the haywood.
The sale of the haywood will not in
terfere in any way with the business
of the Hill company as it is announced
that the company. has purchased the
g Saugatuck,' a steamer of practically
the same burden and it was in
port this morning being reprinted
and being put into commission for
the company.
It is understood that the French
government paid a good price for the
haywood - but the officials of the
Hill company said that they did not
care to say anything about the con-
sideration of the deal
The haywood has been the hero of
many battles with the ice in the lake
and Kenosha people will watch with
interest her progress as one of the
