Big BOAT STRANDED


The towboat Jim Wood" of Pitts
burg, Pa, one Of the most powerful
boats on the upper Ohio River, snag-
ged hole in her hull yesterday
about noon by striking a check post
on the lower guide wall Of Lock and
Dam No. 33, just above the city, caus-
ing the boat to become lodged upon
the wall
The boat was attempting to pass
Dam No. 3S by going through the
lock chamber, which is on the Ken
lucky side Of the river. In swinging
toward the bank in order to get into
position to go through the lock
chamber, the boat struck an iron
check post about Q inches in diameter
on the lower guide wall, which was
about si2 feet under water. A large
hole was torn in the hull of the boat
Siphons were Immediately put into
use to keep the hull as free of water
as possible and carpenters and la
borers were drafted from the force of
the Bates and Rigers Construction
Co., contractors at Dam No. 33, to
stop the leak as soon as possible.
The U. S. Government boats, the
Miami" and "Guyandot" which were
tied up on the Ohio shore. came to the
assistance of the disabled boat by
taking care of her tow of nine barges
and in assisting in siphoning the hull.
About o'clock members of the crew
of the boat began removing their per-
sonal belonging from the boat, fear
ing that she was doomed to sink.
Four men Of the contractors force
at the dam had very narrow es-
cape from drowning a few moments
after the accident OCCURRED. Messrs.
Louie Sieber, former, William Gettes,
Charles Jones and J. Bradford, all
carpenters, put out in small yawl
to get to the towboat to help stop the
hole in the hull. The current above
the boat was very swift and the yawl
got out of the control of the men,
floating directly underneath a barge
in the tow of the Wood" The men
saved themselves by jumping on the
barge, the yawl being swept under.
Mr.. Jones lost very valuable set of
carpenter tools. The four men had
a very narrow escape from death.
The river fell two feet last night
and left the big boat stranded upon
the wall. During the night the boat
turned completely around, the check
post acting as pivot. The only rem
edy now is to wreck the boat and save
as much Of the machinery as possible.

SHIPPING CANNED TOMATOES TO
NJ. c. RUSSELL co,

The Flemingsburg Times-Democrat
says: For years we have been in the
habit of seeing canned tomatoes
brought here to supply the local COM
munity, and at the same time our peo-
pie where allowing hundreds Of BUSH
els of tomatoes to rot in their gardens
every fall. Last week the current Of
shipment was reversed when w. H..
Fischer began the shipment of big
lot of tomatoes to the NJ. c. Russell
Co. of Maysville. These tomatoes
were canned by NJ. R. Ritchie at his
cannery near Wallingford, and the
canneries Of Calvin Hester and Frank
Marshall & Son in the same vicinity
also put up good packs this season.

SECOND LIBERTY LOAN
Amounted to Si,8l7,S3s,,OO - Over
Subscription Of Fifty.slx Per
Cent ls Announced by Sec.
retary Of the Treasury.

Washington, November 7--Ameri-
cans responded to the call for sec
ond Liberty war loan by subscribing
$4,617,532,300, an over-subscriptlon by
Sc per cent. of $4,000, 100000 asked.
Tabulations completed tonight, ele-
ven days after the close Of the nation
wide bond selling campaign, showed
that every federal reserve district ex-
ceeded its quota and 100000 persons
subscribed in the big war financing
described as the greatest ever at
tempted by any government.
Half of the over-subscribed sum
will be accepted, making the actual
total of bonds to be issued $3,S0S, 1885,
$50. Ninety-nine per cent. Of the sub
scribers will receive the amount for
which they bargained, all subscrip-
tions for $4,000 or less being allotted
in full and those above that amount
being pared down in varying proper
tions, ranging from ninety per cent.
allowance on subscriptions between
$50 900 and 100000 to forty per cent.
for the largest single subscription Of
$50, 100000.
"The success of the second Liberty
Loan, like that of the first, is dis
tinct triumph for the people Of the
United States" said Secretary Nc
Adoo, announcing the loan results to-
night. 1T not only demonstrated their
ability, patriotism and resources, but
augers the certain success Of any fu-
ture loans that may be offered by the
government"
The Secretary added denial Of re-
ports that the third loan would be
solicited in January, 1918.
"In view of the large over-subscrip-
ton of the second Liberty Loan" he
said, 81 am glad to state that this will
not be necessary"
1t has been generally understood
that the third loan would be sought
probably in late February or early
March next year.
