STOMACHAL best for The Barge Hale Strikes Ledge Off Racine The sailing barge Hale of Detroit ran on the reef oft' this port early this morning loaded with lumber for Kenosha At 3 this morning the watchman at the life saving station noticed a vessel touching near the reef and thinking skp was bound here called the tug Capt Wertz went within a quarter mile of the boat and found that she was fast on the reef He was unable to get the tug to the stranded craft on account of the shallow water The life savers ascertained that it was the Hale of Detroit They remained with the boat while the tug brought the cook ashore who telegraphed her owners in Detroit for instructions The Hale is a tow barge but was going under her own sail on this trip She is a three-masted boat 138 feet 3 ihches long 26 feet beam and was built at Tronto Mich in 1874 She was not sailing over four miles an hour when she struck the or as it has often been termed She struck about the middle of the reef and was undoubtedly heading in for the shore When she struck she was not on very fast but since then she has been gradually working her way farther on There is a depth of eleven feet of water where she lies and her crew fear a hole has been torn in her bottom by the sharp rocks upon which she is lying Shortly after striking the water in her hold began to rise and is now up to her decks on one side The captain received a message from her owner shortly before noon and he asked if she could be towed off by taking off the deck load This is out of the question She is high on the rocks now and relieving her of her deck load would not float her If she was pulled off there is a question whether a sand sucker could keep her free while she was being towed to Kenosha The detekload will probably have to be removed any way and this work will be undertaken at once The Chicago tug Prodigy arrived in port this morning and this afternoon she is lying a short distance from the stranded wreck It is said she will attempt fo pull the boat from her bed on the rocks Racine News The Corset of Corsets Kingston Jamaica June 11 some days officials have been investigating the persistent reports which one hears
