Rockland and Rockport Lime Company to modernize coast trade
A new syndicate organized by Eastern capitalists aims to dominate lime transport from Maine ports to Boston and New York. Six steel barges and an ocean tug named Fred E. Richards are under construction, with Captain Michael O'Brien to command the tug and George W. Richards leading the venture’s marine operations. The plan anticipates replacing schooners with high capacity barges by September 1, signaling a major shift in the coastal lime carrying business.

Steamer Yarmouth May Be Replaced By Bigger Ship
The Yarmouth with 220 passengers and 822 blueberry crates arrived yesterday from Yarmouth New York. A plan to replace the Yarmouth with a larger twin screw steamer about 300 feet long featuring 150 staterooms is under consideration. The Boston would remain for winter service and a ship like the City of Lowell is contemplated for year round use. The proposed craft would boost capacity and speed from Eastern ports with the line showing record July business.
