McLeod, Until recently boats for the service of harbor police in the large cities were unheard of in this country, but New York will soon have a fleet of them, and they are of a serviceable kind. The Gas Engine & Power Co. and Charles L. Seabury & Co., Consolidated,of New York have just been awarded a contract by the New York department of police for two more patrol launches. They are to be similar to the naphtha launches used during the past year in New York, and which were furnished by the same company. The boats are 30 feet long, 7 feet beam and 2 feet 6 inches draft. They are very strongly con- structed with oak keel and frames made from steam-bent, straight- grained timbers. The planking is of cedar, copper fastened and rivetted throughout, with decks of white pine. The interior of the hull is fin- ished in ash and oak, natural color of the wood. There is a standing wood roof over entire cockpit, with glass windows forward. The machinery is a six-horse-power naphtha motor. Rumors concerning the purchase of the Pioneer mine, one of the coming great properties of the Vermillion range, by the Illinois Steel Co., are without foundation. This mine is controlled by Cleveland capital, represented mainly in the office of Oglebay, Norton & Co., and several of the leading stockholders say there is nothing in the reports of a sale. A very large amount of money has been expended in developing the property during the past two or three years, and heavy shipments can be made during the coming season if the market warrants a large output. FOR SALEW ~~ Excursion and Freight Steamer, Canadian bottom, about 130 feet long hy 30 feet beam; Trout propeller wheel; speed of about 12 miles; certificate for 492 passengers. Com- pany retiring, will sacrifice at $5,000. THOS. DAVIES & CO., Brokers, Koronto.
