THE STOffiMY WEATHES. FLEETS 0)N THE EAST SHOKE. The wind yesterritay was nor'west again and fresh. Toward eyesning it died away and the se* ran down. The hairbors on the east shore are barred up to a greatt extent -and vessel masters have not dared to attempt to get out while there was any sea. As'a result fully 150 craft have been delayed over there—steam as well as sail. The only craft arriving in Chicago for several days past hmve been from Green Bay and points along the warat shore of this lake. Even vessels from the Sfcraits have not been able to work up and into Lake Michigan. The harbor tugs here have not hiad such a dull period for sev- THE ONEIDA, KETCH AM, ABAB. ETC. The many friends of Captain Mclnnis, the owner and master of the sunken propeller Oneida, sympathize greatly with him, as his loss is heavy. The insurance on the hull is only partial. Crosby & Dimick's Agency at Buffalo has $3,000 on the hull, and $9,000 on the cargo. She is on the American s^ide of the St. Lawrence and very light. Tne wind rose at a "little after noon, !, and by 0 o'clock it was blowimg at the rate of i, twenty-aix to twenty-efecbt miltes an hour, raising . Vb.& heaviest northwest sea of tlhis year. A number of vessels which had left Un the morning ran back and got underneath the breakwater, where they remained t&ll day. Several boats arrived durring the blow and were forced to go under the breakwater, it being dangerous to attempt to make the pier. The Sprague towed out th'o Watson and Miria Martin, and the towline parted! after fouling with her wheel. They made the ret rage and remained all night. The Quayle and Foirrest City arrived during the afternoon from ujp the lake. In the evening'the Sophie Minch arrrived and dropped her anchor when just off thee river. The Peter Lynch and Fanny Tuthil went out to tow her into shelter. Thie Lynch's line parted as the schooner's rtndder broke, and she was in danger of being diriven onto the old piers east of the river, but Capotain Bates put out her anchor, and after dragging is. short distance, it held. A couyle of heavy tugs were sent out later , and succeeded in bringing her into shelter, No| serious accidents occurred, because the river was| comparatively free of boats, amd not much was doing. A fleet of ten vessels-were in the refuge j over night. The steamer Northwest waited until the wind went down before vemturing out on her < trip." k cw a.nu runic 1U XttJS A±fAH.

THE STRANDED SCHOONEE DABT. bpecial Correspondence of i'he. Inter OceaD. Two Rivebs, Wis., Oct. 30.— The steambanre J. E. Rumbell, of Manistee, undertook to get the schooner Dart off. She dredged herself in as far as the Dart's main rigging. She commenced to dredge at noon and dredged until 6 p. m., when she barred herself in by dredging alongside the Dart. The Andy Johnson having arrived at 5 p. m., got a line to the Rumbell and the Rumbell a line to the Dart and the Johnson then attempted to pull them both off at once, but failed to pull the Dart, on account of the latter's lines and pawl-post giving away. The Johnson then got her line to the Dart and pulled until 1 o'clock a. m., Oct. 81, when she parted her line and postponed the work. At (1:80 a. m. the Johnson resumed work on the Dart, parted her line twice, and stopped. At 7:30 the Johnson resumed work again and pulled on her until 4 p. m., when she parted her line and again postponed the task. The Dart lies quiet and apparently has no damage. The life-saving crew are doing excellent work in gettiug the Dart off by running lines, setting jack-screws, etc., and do not fail to do their duty, for all that the progress is slow, which is on account of low water. The stage is 18 inches lower than at apyfrigjgthie season before. i Tiiiftwninwii -~— SHE SOPHIA MIJ.-CH ASHORE.
