Ocean going tugboats may cut Atlantic freight costs
A New York Mail and Express analysis argues that cheap ocean freight for bulky cargoes could be achieved by tugboats towing barges rather than tramp steamers. Examples include the M. E. Lickenbach and Tamaqua moving coal and lumber, with potential for refrigerated barges to ship dressed beef to Britain, and questions about Pacific routes.
