Baltimore, April 25

The first cargo ship passed through a newly-opened deep-water channel in Baltimore on Thursday after being stuck in the harbour since the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed four weeks ago.

The “Balsa 94”, a bulk carrier sailing under a Panama flag, passed through the new 35-foot channel Thursday morning, headed for St John’s, Canada.

The ship is one of five stranded vessels expected to pass through the new, temporary channel. It is expected to arrive in Canada on Monday.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
