Life Saving Station Authorized Near City Point Boston Harbor
Washington February 20 The President approves a Treasury act to establish a life saving station near City Point Boston harbor. Superintendent Kimball cites a record of yacht and small craft accidents and 34 lives lost from 1890 to 1898, arguing a local station could have saved most lives and would not require a winter crew.

Passage of Cunard Samaria Returns to Boston Wharf
After more than two years, the Cunard steamship Samaria, commanded by Captain Pritcard, docked at East Boston at 8 am with a large cargo and few passengers. The vessel had sailed from Liverpool thirteen days prior and replaces the Pavonia on the Boston route for this trip. The Anthony, a local coal transport, returned to port for repairs after a leak, while other vessels faced grounding, fire, or hull damage in recent days. The Jane Adeline was towed into Bermuda after a blizzard, and the C. W. Morse aided in assessing a missing tug for Standard Oil. The Harvard reported seventy-one days at sea en route from Buenos Ayres.
