Smith, of the Macon Navigation Company, returned this morn ing from Brunswick, where he has been for the past week arranging for the raising of the boat. It was thought here for some time that it would be impossible to raise the boat but Mr. Smith says that the boat can easily be raised and that he has signed, a contract with parties in Brunswick to raise it and bring it in the city. 'He says that he has had some rough ex periences since he left the city and that he is glad to see Macon again. In speaking of the boat Mr. Smith said: '‘When I reached the scene of the wreck I found the boat turned bottom side up and the boilers had fallen out. The next day I attempted to go out to the wreck again but the storm came up and I was pre vented. Two days after the storm I went out agaip and could find no trace of her and it was t#o days before we found it. “The water had then subsided and the boat was high on a marsh but it was still turned bottom side up. I endeavored while there to find out the cost of the wreck but was unable to do so. The people at Bruns wick are of the opinion that the wreck was due to the incompetence of the cap tain. I think that the boat was too heavily loaded. Captain Hathaway in his official report says that a northeast gale struck him but if that was so it took the gale three days to reach Brunswick and the place of the wreck is only nine miles 'out. I think that we will have the boat running within a month’s time as tbs contractors say that it will be an easy matter to raise her. “The hull is in good condition and after it is. raised it will only need a few repairs and it will be all right.” A TEXAS AVOXDER.
