1SS Ail' ASKED,' DENIED Stranded Bark Mimi's Captain Bitter in Complaint. STEAMER IGNORES APPEAL Raisins of Tiro Flags by Craft Bear Ins White Letter "S" Would Have Given Location, Declares Officer of Vessel. Refused Information as to his where abouts by a passing steamer which was seen as the fog lifted and was In Bight for an hour, when but the raising of two flags in reply would have con Teyed a message that there was no other chance of obtaining. Captain Westphal, of the stranded German bark Mlmi. complains bitterly of a lack of courtesy that would have saved his vessel. He said the steam ar was bound north; that she was a three-master and bore on her funnel what appeared to be a white letter "S." For three days the skipper of the Mimi said he was unable to get any bearings and It was about four hours before the bark went on the beach that the steamer hove In sight. When about two miles away he said the signal flags were hoisted, asking for the lo cation. Had the steamer merely re plied as to the latitude or longitude. Captain Westphal said he could have worked out his position. Landwards nothing was to be seen but a bank of fog that hung over the beach. When the bark grounded he said it was impossible to distinguish the shore and later, on seeing fires there, he thought they were lights of another vessel. Had either of the tugs Fearless, Oneonta and Wallula had a long line when they appeared next day he said the bark could have been floated. He said it would have been comparatively simple for one end of a line to have been attached to a buoy and floated through the breakers to the bark. The Oneonta. be said, came within a quarter of a mile of the Mimi and a line could easily have been sent from her. Bids have been asked for floating the Mimi and delivering her Inside the river and they will be opened at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

As the city has neither attempted to prosecute for hauling freight cars nor to enforce the forfeiture clause of the ordinance, these questions, the court says, ought not to be determined until those Issues are considered by the court of original Jurisdiction. Therefore, while affirming the de- h isr oourt in the matter of requiring the removal of locomotives from Fourth street, tne supreme t,un explains that its decision is not to be a a nrniiinlcLal in regard either to the question of freight cars or the right of roneiture. it is lauraswu, however; that completion of a belt line, kil.- th.
