River Mishap
Vessel Collides with Pile Driver.
(Special to “Herald.”)
Brisbane, Tuesday.
The interstate cargo steamer “Corrimal,” came into collision in the Brisbane River this morning with a pile-driving pontoon, ploughing three feet into it and causing a pontoon to crash into a riverside wharf.
Three employees of the Harbour and Rivers Department on the pontoon leapt over on to the wharf when they saw the crash was imminent and escaped injuries. The “Corrimal” was undamaged.
The pile-driver Gantry was smashed and fell on the roof of the wharf shed, while the lower end of the Gantry fell into the river. The pontoon did not sink.
