The quantity arriving here has been quite limited thus far this, season. At Windsor, opposite, the supply of lumber is from various points in Georgian Bay with a liberal supply on hand which is shipped exclusively on Canadian vessels. ‘There are also two or three coal depots at that place which receive patronage from steamers owned on either side of the line. : The hulk of .a sunken steamer was plainly discernible a few days since near Crawford’s quarry, on Lake Huron, apparently in a well preserved condition. It was probably the remains of the steamer Bruce Minés, which foundered in that locality November. 1854, freighted with supplies for the mining re- gion. Here is an opportunity for wrecking experts to test their genius as the water is of moderate depth, not exceeding forty feet. The steamer Spartan, which completed her repairs some three weeks since, still remains, Captain McGregor states that the difficulty is with the insurance company. Her repairs have been definitely arrived at and amount to $34,000. ‘he insurance company claim that much of the repairs was wholly unnec- essary, and accordingly do not feel disposed to foot so exorbitans a bill. H. W. Granger, United States inspector ot sterm vessels here, has resigned to accept the superintendency of the Detroit drydock engine, he also becomes a stockholder. Barge Conemangh and towbarge Atizona are ashore at Grindstone City. Torrent and Manistique lost a large raft of timber oft Sand Beach during Wednesday night. ‘I'he schoouer Lucy J. Clark, bound up, went ashore at Cheboygan. A large fleet of vessels are at that point and also at Sand Beach. SANDUSKY. Special to the Marine Record. The squall that struck this place Monday atternoon was the severest that has been felt for many a long year. ‘he only accident reported is the capsiz- ing of the pound boat belonging to Adam Stoll, of this town. She left in the morning louded with twine to set in the cape, and when they were a couple of miles from the shore the squall struck them, instantly turn- ing them over. The storm increased in vio- lence till it blew a perfect gale. ‘The men, James White, M. White and Ed Slackford, clung to the boat waiting for assistance. Captain Moore, of the tug Cal Davis, know- ing that there were fishing boats out on the lake, started out and picked them up. One of the men was very nearly dead, having been washed off the boat so often. While the tug was trying to save the pound boat she got a line in her wheel and was disabled, being unable to move, when she was in this condition the tug Patrick Henry, of Cleve- land passsd by and was signalled, She checked up and inquired what was the mat- ter, and on being told she quickly went on her way Jeaving the tug and the pound boat crew to the mercy of the elements. ‘The line was finally gotten out of the Davis’ wheel and she got to town. It was found impossible to save the nound boat and it was abandoned. About $150 worth of twine was lost. The boat was worth about $200. A small boat was also lost, Mr. Stoll’s loss is about $375. Forepaugh’s circus was in session when the hurricane struck this town, and the panic which took place there beggars de- scription, men, women and children climb- ing out 4s best they could. Luckily no one was seriously hurt, ‘he canvas was badly torn but things were patched up sufficiently to give a performance in the evening. PORT COLBORNE, Special to the Marine Record. The schooner Norway, of Kingston, owned by Calvin & Son, of Garden Island, went ashore while trying to make this harbor Monday night. She is lying on rock bottom east of the piers dismasted, full of water and likely to prove a total Joss. She was bound from Byng' Inlet to Kingston, laden with timber. No insurance. The brig Hercules, bound down the lake with lumber for Tonawanda, ran ashore east of the piers while trying to get into the har- bor. She lies on sand bottom, and will likely be got off without much damage. ‘The Her- cules is owned by W. Y. Emery, of Port Burwell. ‘The crews of both vessels came ashore ip the small boats. The propeller Walter L. Frost, which ar- rived here ‘'uesday morning reports having avery rough night, and had to run under Long Poiat for shelter. ‘i A nember of vessels and steamers are ly- ing in the harbor wind-bound. The schooner Mary arrived from Detroit, having suffered considerable damage to her sails. PORT HURON. The Canadian schooner Cecilia was at- tached by United States Marshal Graves to satisfy a claim for towing by S. B. Grum- mond and for advanced freight money by Merrick, Fowler & Kelsey, both of De-, troit.. ‘he schooner is bound up with a load of brick for Port Arthur. The schooner: Winslow was got off Wednesday night and is at Alverson & Co.’s dock tor repairs. 'The cribs are all down at the Sand Beach breakwater. ‘I'he several appropriations of $100,000 have been expended and $175,000 more is needed to complete the work. Last year 1,022 vessels with a tonnage of 286,703, found shelter at the- harbor of refuge. When the proposed dredging ie finished there will be an area of about 160 acres outside the eighteen-foot line and 300 acres outside the twelve-foot line. The steambarge Sanilac, bound down, ran aground on the middle ground, near Port Edward on Sunday night, during a heavy rain squall on Sunday night. ‘Tugs Sweep- stakes and Bob Hackett went to work her off at daylight. ‘They had been working but a short time when the Hackett got out of po- sition so that the Sweepstakes could work ahead, and the Sweepstakes picked up the Hackett’s towline in her wheel. ‘The Sweep- stakes then went aground and is still on at noon to-day. The collector of customs at Sarnia seized the Sweepstakes for wrecking in Canadion waters. The steambarge Ontonagon was destroyed by fire at the southeast bend Sunday: night. The fire was first discovered near the smoke stack, and spread so quickly that the crew could do nothing to check the flames. She was grounded near the Star Island House, where she burned until there is nothing left of her. She was insured with a fire risk of $8,000. She had.no cargo, and was bound for Bay City with three barges in tow. The steambarge East Saginaw foundered below Sand Beach harbor ‘Tuesday morning. She was bound up with four barges in tow. Captain Harry Richardsen, of the steamer, says that she was holding the tow to the westward, trying to wake the harbor. It was blowing heavy from the northwest and raining hard. She struck the reef south of the piers and broke her wheel. She was on the rocks from half past 10 until la. m., pounding heavily. Her canvas was set, and the steamer came off and drifted into the lake, leaking until the fires were put out by water. ‘The crew then took to the yaw! boat until they were picked up by the propeller Conemaugh. ‘The steward of the Saginaw had a very narrow escape for his life. After trying four times Captain Cochrane, of the Conemaugh, succeeded in getting the crew on board and arrived here at 4 p. m. The Saginaw was owncd by F. W. Gilchrist and others, of Alpena, Captain Richardson was part owner, and suffered the loss of $3,000. She was thoroughiy rebuilt three years ago at Detroit and valued at $24,000. Three barges of the tow are now at anchor off Sand Beach. ‘The Wend-the-Wave is here for safety, Much praise is given by the res- cued crew to Captain Cochrane and his men, ‘The tug Sweepstakes Is still aground here. Her matter with the Canadian Government has been settled. ‘I'he tug Champion is ex- pected here to tuke her off in the morning. MILWAUKEE, The steambarge G. ‘I. Burroughs, which left for Muskegon about 10:30 o’clock Wednesday night, whe nabout tour miles off this port broke her crank+¢pin, completely disabling her. Her whistle was blown for assistance but none came. Her canvas was spread und she headed for this port, but made little headway. A quantity of oakum, ignited with oil, was set on fire to act asa torch. ‘The crew of the tug Starke Brothers discovered the fire and headed for the ves- sel, which was at first supposed to be on fire. ‘The Starke towed the disabled craft into the harbor. It will take several days to make repairs. The tug C.M. Charnley, with a scow bound from Chicago to Sturgeon Bay, came in for a new crank. The schooner Graham Brothers, recently ashore near the Door, arrived. here. She was in Rand & Burgers drydock at Mani- towoce. There is some demand for grain carriers and 4c is offered on wheat to Buffalo. Vessel owners are sending their vessels from here to Escanaba to load ore, in pre- ference to Chicago to Joad grain,‘on account of the falling otffin grain freights, but ore freights are also weaker. Shippers ave offer- ing but $1.40 from Escanaba to’ Toledo, while $1.50 was paid last week. Captain James Bruce to-night telegraphed the owners of the schooner Typo at this port from Rath, Ont., that the Typo had gone ashore this morning on Amherst Island, near Kingston, and that she was badly broken up and full of water. The Typo has a cargo of 22,500 bushels of-wheat, shipped by C. J. Kershaw & Company of this port, and consigned to Kingston. The cargo, which is a total loss, is insured. The ‘Typo measures 303 tons, and was built at this port in 1873. She was owned by Al. and Louis Bleyer, and is valued at $16,000; fully in- sured. BUFFALO. The little schooner Twilight came in with her mainsail gone. McGulpin’s Point in a fog, and threw over- board considerable of her corn to release her- self. She is not damaged. FAIR HAVEN, The schooner Serepta went ashore here, just east of the breakwater, in the heavy gale blowing from the west, ac seven o’vlock ‘Tuesday morning. All hands were saved. The cargo of coal and merchandise tor ‘Yoronto was not badly damaged. ‘I'he vessel is lying in good shape and can be got oft as soon as the weather is favorable. Add Oswego. ‘The Oswego Times says about two o'clock the 24th the lookout ‘at the station male out a small sloop trying to make the harbor. She made a failure of it and went ashore near the station. It turned out to be the Tourist of Pultneyville owned here aud known ae the ‘Potato Bug.’’ She had a cargo of tish and was abreast of Sodus Point when the gale struck her. She could not get into the harbor and next tried Fair Haven with the same result and kept on for this port. She had lost some of her rigging and was partially disabled, which perhaps accounts for the difficulty in managing her. ‘The life saving crew have got a line around her spar and she is not pounding much and will not probably receive much damage. The schooner Gold Hunter, under the command of Captain Jolin Jackson, who commanded the schooner D. M, Foster at the time she went ashore last tall, came in about four o’clock, the only vessel to make the, harbor during the night. ‘The spars have been taken out of the wreck of the Foster which has been lying on the rocks where she struck since last fall. This lightened the wreck and some time during the night the hull fluated off, and this morn- ing was out of sight down the lake. OSWEGO. The schooner Magdala will receive repairs ‘on Mitchell & Gallagher's drydock. The schooner Herbert Dudley brought about 5,000 bushels of wet wheat from King- ston; part.of the cargo of the steamer Prus- sia. Itis at the N.S. dock in charge of cus- toms officials. KINGSTON. A tri-weekly line commenced on .Tues- day between Hamilton and Montreal. Captain Zealand proposes to send the Glenfinlas over the.Niagara Falls, on fire, about the first of October. Captain 1. Collier and D. W. Allison, Esqv of Adolphustown, have entered into part- nership in ordering a new steamer to ply on the Bay of Quinte. he order has been Captain John Perew, of the propeller John | placed with Captain R. Davis, of Kingston, B. Lyon, reports that he saw an unknown schooner disubled on the lake yesterday. As far as can be learned no lives were lost or persons injured during the gale. ‘The vessel ashore at Windmill Point turns out to be the schooner John Wesley, with iron ore from Escanaba bound for Black Rock. ‘The crew is 3afe, but the vessel will probably be a total wreck. She is valued at $12,000; insured for $10,000. ‘Ihe schooner, William H. Vanderbilt foundered at Long Point, ore laden, valued at $20,000; insured for $15,000. A disastrous storm occurred here last Monday night, the wind at one time being ata volocity of fifty-four miles per hour. The barge York State, in tow of the steam- barge Buckeye, with wheat from ‘Toledo, broke her tow-line nearing Butfalo before daylight on the 25th. The Buckeye was unable to do anything for the barges and came into port alone. At daylight it was reported that a white vessel was ashore neat Bay View, with the crew in the rigging. It was ascertained however that it was the York State; she threw out both anchors and road out the storm, The floating elevator Margaret broke loose from her moorings at the Erie basin and raised havoc with the propeller St. Paul, breaking one ot her arches, her guards, and other parts. Tbe damage will amount to several hundred dollars, It is also reported that she broke the stern of the schooner H. G. Cleveland. The schooner E. Fitzgerald, bound down from Toledo lost her canvas and had a por- tion of her bulwarks carried away. . She arrived here leaking, and her cargo of wheat is thought to be damaged. ‘The schooner Nellie Gardner’s staysail and foresail were split. SHEBOYGAN. The schooner City of Chicago stranded at who had a high reputation for building this class of boats. She will be something atter the model of the Princess Louise. TOLEDO. The last trip of the propeller Russell Sage from Buffalo to Toledo was made in twenty hours and fifteen minutes. ‘This beats the best previous time of the Wabash line steam- ers by twenty-five minutes, which had been the fastest time on record between these ports. DULUTH. The hull and mactiinery of’ the burned Glenfinlas has been sold to Captain Murray, of Port Dalhousie, for $950. The tug Nellie Cotton has been placed on the dock, and the work of repairing her will be commenced at once. Thos. Dowse, agents tor the owners Drake Bros., of St. Paul, has sold the tug Pacific to Herbert & Roberts, of Ashland, for $5,250. Her new owners are at work on her, and Saturday will take her to Ashland. Log towing will be her business there. Enough tugs will be left in the harbor to do all the work at the head of the lake. The steamer R. G. Stewart is receiving upwards of $5,000 worth of improvements at the Detroit drydocks. Her broad guards are being taken off entirely so as to make her a better sea boat for outside work, and other changes are being made to fit her for the route between Duluth and Agate Bay, where she is to run in the future. She is expected back here by October first. By authority of City Engineer Rogers, Hingson & Woods yesterday began work on the removal of the sand scow wreck lying just north of the harbor entrance. A dredge was used to raise the obstruction, and by night most of it had been removed. One portion raised was about seventy-five feet long.
