BOAT DAMAGED IN ICE.
Juanita Breaks Propeller Trying to
Cut Way Out Of Harbor.

AS the power boat Juanita. Capt.
Russell Parker was endeavoring to
make her way out of the harbor
through the heavy ice. she was forced
to stop and back. in order to break
away some of the frozen masses that
stopped her progress.
In doing so the Juanita bent her pro-
peller shaft and broke her propeller,
and was forced to return to this city.
AS all the marine railways are filled
with vessels undergoing repairs or laid
up for the winter Capt. Russell ran his
boat into shoal dock. so that when
the tide falls he can remove the broken
propeller.
To draw the bent shaft it will be
necessary for the Juanita to be taken
from the water. This, it is stated, Will
be done at lower Potomac boat yard.
The Juanita is one of the fleet employ
ed in oyster running from the lower
Potomac to the market here.
