May Run On Missouri River Prospect Amid Packet Sale
A Pittsburg report says the Ohio river steamers Queen City Virginia and Keystone may move to Missouri waters due to river conditions and dwindling traffic. Captain H G Wilson aims to purchase Keystone and inspect Virginia and Queen City, with sale needing Supreme Court approval as the line is under a receiver. If done, it reshapes Cincinnati to Pittsburg river commerce, while other lines continue current trade routes. The piece also recounts a Chicago tragedy and a civil service postmaster order, ending with mine fatalities in Mariana.
