NAVIGATION OP&NS.
Captain McCarthy of the G. A. Richard-
son Geta the Hat.
After being delayed for some time by
unfavorable ice conditions. navigation
opened here all of a sudden on Sunday
with the arrival of two ships and the
departure of two of the boats that had
wintered here.
To the steamer G. A. Richardson be-
longs the honor of being the first ship to
enter the local harbor this season. Con-
sequently when she left on Tuesday
morning after discharging her cargo Cap-
tain J. T. McCarthy carried with him the
hat presented by the Mayor to the cap-
tain of the first boat arrival of the sea-
son. The Richardson carried 101,000
bushels of wheat.
Within a few hours of the arrival of the
first ship i he steamer Valcartier came in
with a cargo of 217.000 bushels of oats
and about 38,500 bushels of flax. As flax
is worth $4.50 per bushel even this small
amount is worth quite a bit of money.
1 he steamer Spokane arrived on Mon-
day with 180.000 bushels of wheat.
All these boats encountered many miles
of ice. but had no trouble in getting
through.
The first of the boats that iein-
tered here to leave was the steamer
Saurian. which cleared for Fort William
at daybreak on Sunday under the com-
mand of Captain A. Pyette and Chief En-
gineer Isaac Boyden. It had been ex-
pected that this ship would go to Sarnia.
but the ice was a) had at the lower end
of the lake that she was ordered north.
This year Captain Harold Hudson ie in
charge of the steamer W. D. Matthews,
which kin several hours after the Sarnian.
also going up the lakes. Mr. W. Reid is
chief engineer.
Yesterday aft. moon the barge Mary
McLaughlin was brstght across to the
putt side of the harbor and It is expected
that she will be towed up the lakea by
one of the boats now here.
