Water Front Notes on Tugs Coal Trade and Dock News
The Bath Iron Works builds a steel tug for Staples Coal Company destined for Cuba. Everett coal imports from Cape Breton surged last year with 551817 tons, nine steamers delivering 2878 tons so far, outpacing 1900. Special Officer Martin Sheehan is sidelined by a broken leg.

The Lackewanna’s stern lettering shows casing issues, and storms push many tugs and sailing craft from the harbor toward Buenos Aires and nearby docks. The Landsman.
