She had forty coilbaits and three barges of rails In her low. Cgpt August Jutte, a member of the transportation committee of the.Monongahela River Conaotldsteil Coal and Coke. Company. the owner of the boat rod tow, who has taken great pride la giving the steamer record-breaking Heels, left Pittsburgh for the scene of the disaster, and was expected to arrive there yesterday afternoon. Fog and rapidly falling Mississippi river are reported as the cause of the accident, says the Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. The entire mammoth I fleet wu shoved onto a biff bar at Point Pleasant, and a* toon as the tow truck It wenl to pieces, scattering over the river. Captain James Beaxell, matter of the steamer, Immediately sent a message to C. Jutte A Company, who operate the boat, apprising them ot the accident. The Mississippi river Is flerce, and U the Williams' damaged boats go to pieces K wll be almost impossible to save any o( them. The coal boats stuck and sunk contain about 670,000 bushels of coal, making It perhaps the most serious accident of the kind that has ever befallen a single towboab Coal Is worth 14 cents a bushel at New Orleans, which Tl'/lilM malra tha <M Ilia a/ <ka mivnn <n trouble over $90,000, but this does not represent an actual low. The above value of the cargo Is baaed on the market price; the cost of the coal to date was not less than $40,000. The Williams has had bad luck ever since she reached Louisville. In making up her tow of coal at that place, one coalboat was suhk. and it is reported that the boat struck the bank some distance below Louisville after she had left thcro and sunk one boat. Much was said about the boat when she left Cincinnati about her recordbreaking trip of forty coal boats and three brages of rails. Big accounts of the feat were published in the papers, un iv nn we wrgcoi iw ever ntuiuicii by any, boat plying: between Cincinnati and Louisville. The Williams has, however, on several occasions, taken Kuccessfululy forty coal boats to New Orleans. Her present tow contained about 1,000,000 bushels of coal and 3.000 tons of steel rails for delivery in aome of the southern states. About two years ago the Williams attempted to take fifty coal boats, aggregating 1,250.000 bushels of coal from Louisville to New Orleans, but she was compelled to double-frip almost the entire distance, and the trip proved a failure, it requiring her almost double her usual time to take the tow. ?jiu#uoi M"1". Iff IIVICU aiiiuiifi river men for giving the tow boats operated by his firm large tow*, and he took much delight In watching the steamer durhig this trip. , She look on the three barges of steel rails nt T,oulsvllle. As far as could be learned the rails are in good shape. The Joseph B. Williams Is the largest tow boat afloat. She Is 256 feet long, or longer than any stern-wheel packet plying the upper Ohio river, and is 52% feet wide, her depth of hold being 6H foot. She Is supplied with six boilers. 4!> Inches In diameter and 28 feet long. She has compound engines, two highpressure ctylnders, 20 Inches In diameter. and tyto low-pressure cylinders, 4G Inches In diameter, with 9 feet stroke nf nlatnn. whlrh works u whnul l>9 hv 29 feet feet, having buckets 36 Inches wide and 20 feet long. It Is said that It would have taken forty trains of forty earn each to have taken her shipment of cool out of Pittsburgh, which Is exclusive of the shipment of rails. An effort probably wljl be made to save some of the cargo. but the conditions win not be known until Captain .Ttrtte makes a report. It !s net often that coal is saved on the Mississippi river, for the reason that the river In most places has a sandy bottom, nnd when a craft once sinks or sticks, the sand cuts out from under the craft, burying It.
