LIBELED BOATS SOLD.
Deputy United States Marshal Kane Disposes Of Two Canal Boats To Pay Off The Hands.
      ------------------------------------
Deputy United States Marshal Kane went to Tonawanda yesterday and disposed of two canal boats which were libeled by him some weeks ago by employes for non-payment of salaries. They were the LENA and J.W. DIAMOND.
      The LENA was sold for $105 and the J.W. DIAMOND for $128. They were bid in for the owners, and the price paid was barely sufficient to cover all the expenses incurred by the marshal in libeling them.
