Snow bound ships and fishing fleet endure harsh harbor conditions
A nor’easter halted most outward shipping along the waterfront as the St. Croix and other vessels paused near Commercial Wharf. Tugboats and steamers deferred departures, while the nine fishing boats at T Wharf brought in tens of thousands of pounds of haddock and cod. Prices ranged from four to four fifty a hundredweight for haddock and pollock at two fifty. The Bath ship Roanoke suffered cargo fire damage and may head to San Francisco with remaining coal. The Galicia endured a six hour stop near Wood Island for repairs before continuing to Mystic wharf.
