Port Huron, Nov. 26 - When the STEWART was coming up Lake Erie in Tuesday's gale in tow of the CANISTEO, 2 large boulders that had been picked up by the STEWART when ashore near Cheboygan about 4 weeks ago dropped out, and she began to sink. The CANISTEO had hard work getting her in to Fairport. When she reached there there was 7 ft. of water in her hold.
