The Salem Sunk.
The steamer Salem, which has been
moored in midstream, near the foot of
Roes Island, for several months past,
sunk Wenesday morning, and now rests
with only her pilot house, smokestack
and part of the forward cabin out of
water. The bout has been out of ser
vice for about two years, and probably
went down through sheer decay.
The Satem was built in 18H0, by Capt.
E. W. Spencer, who traded her to Copt.
Taylor. The boat was for several years
on the Portland and Dayton route, hut
was never considered vry profitable.
She is 100 feet Ionic, 20 feet beam and
4 feet deep. Two years ago last spring
the Salem was run onto the Third
street dock and sunk. Much dilli
culty was experienced in getting her off
and soon after the inspectors condemned
