City waste scow disaster blamed on “economical reform” purge
Boston officials investigate a dumper scow loss at Fort Hill wharf after 400 loads of ashes sank following a leak. The incident follows reductions in labor and higher taxes, with blame aimed at foremen and management changes under the current administration. The damaged equipment, costly repairs, and delayed recovery threaten city operations and provoke scrutiny of personnel decisions.

European ports see grain shipments reach near one and a half million
The quartet of steamers with 579,94 bushels of grain to load and the rest expected to swell weekly cargoes push toward about 1,600,000 bushels. Vessels include Michigan to Liverpool Angin and Lady Joicey to London and Hibernian to Glasgow. The Peruvian departed Rosco with routine run to Mystic Wharf, while Asloun from Java carried 11,613 baskets of sugar to American Sugar Refining. Agloun's earlier record with Waikato earned salvage money for owners. A fleet at wharf reported haddock at 11-4 cents, cod at 2 and 11-2 cents, and Loring B. Haskell delivered salt and fresh mackerel. Shoe City ends excursion season and will be rebuilt for Central America service by United Fruit Company. Duchessea’s propeller was adjusted during a Newport News drydeck overhaul.
