DRIFTING FOR TWO WEEKS The Coal King, Which Broke Loose From Her Tag Has Been Towed Into Port- All on Board are Well i 4 " ..-!!!" -i '.''"-: Newport 'News, Va.,! January 14. Af ter drifting aimlessly on;j a stormy sea for two weeks, the barge Coal King, Cap tain Nelson!, was towed into port this af ternoon by the tug C. W, Morse. The Coal King aef t . Boston ori i December 31st in tow of the tug Luckeftback. On' the the night of January 1st; "her hawser snapped Owing' to the i Intense darkr ness, the Darge's signal or distress was notiseeri by those on the -tag. which with two other, barges in tow.j proceeded on her course j "A fierce gale was raging and huge waves broke over the t vessel. The crew hauled their anchor over the star board side, but the chain broke after sixty-fivje fathoms had; been let out, f and thei barge was left at the( mercy of the tempestuous sea. The" "main sail was torn Into shreds by the; wind and her snanker! was lost. 1 I 1- .When the storm subsided the men set to work repairing the damage sustained by the - barge. After- drifting about six days the schooner Jos. 'N. ; Elliott, bound from Boston to -Charleston, was sighted;' The schooner offered assistance, but it was declined, as the barge! had -weathered the gale without serious Injury and was in no immediate danger. Three days afterward the British steamer . Green brier was spoken. Captain Nelson asked to bp reported as heeding a. tug, which was ' done when the Greenbrier reported her. Last Thursday morning the tug C. W. Morse, with two barges in tow. bound from .Boston to Norfolk, sighted- the Coal King, and went to her assistance. 'Wheni the- barge reached, here today, after her eventful voyage, all on- board were well, and' reported that" the supply of provisions on . the barge would have been -sufficient to have sustained the men for? several weeks. fi v.. .
