CITY OF CLEVELAND AGROUND.
      Escanaba, Mich., Oct. 17. - The steamer CITY OF CLEVELAND with the QUAYLE in tow was driven on the north end of the Beaver. The wrecker MONARCH with lighters and two steam pumps and about 50 men have left here. The steamer is in bad shape and is leaking badly. No report can be had as to the position of the QUAYLE, but it is thought that she cleared the Islands. The steamer and consort left here Friday night with iron ore for Lake Erie. The wind was blowing hard from the Southwest and the steamer may have become a total loss.
