Olson. ' PQRTLAND, Oro., April IS. About May 1st an investigation Into tho alleged action of Captain Charles Bailey of tho bar tug Tatoosh In at tempting to "hold up" Captain B. W. Olson, master1 of tho steamer Alli ance, tp bi'ing his vessel Into tho Columbia River, December 2 and 3, when she was in a disabled condi tion, will bei conducted by , United States inspectors Edwards and .Ful ler. Captain Olson has prelorred charge's against Bailey, and con cludes hits statement to tho Goern mon,t men as follows: 'This Is certalnj'y conduct unbe coming n master hnldlm; a master's Hcenso, nnd nsk you to fully Investi gate this matter." In evoBslng'oiit over Coos Bay bar bound' for Portland, November 28t1l, It wllj bo remoniUored that tho UI anpo encqunteied n. tcrrltlq stoi;ni. She ws pounded about morcllpsflly by tho mountainous seas. Finally her rudder stock was broken and sho Iiccumd holpless. A jury' rudder was hastily constructed, and then tho ofllcers pf thp fctoamer began a fight fpr tholr own and, passengers' lives In the face of. a howling lnir rlcano. For four days tho skipper fought his way toward tho mouth of the Columbia River, every mo-i inent looking os though It would prove tho last to him and tluiso In his charge, Half a dozen times tho ruddor was lost. When tho steamor llnnlly arrived near the lightship, Olson says In his complaint that tho tug Tatoosh wont nlongsldo, Balloy asking him to put a lino on board. Tho Alllauco cap tain insisted on knowing what the towing charge would bo, au, ho did not Uollovp It ought to bo u Salvage cuho. Ho declares that BuiloyuKOttUl' iHvo him no direct answorw.Jimi;)B to come to terms In tho dickering, Olson sajs ho decided to wait until the following morning, when ho would cross In without assistance. For a w'hile, It Is alleged, tho Tat oosh stood by trying to convince him that he should take a tow. In time Bailey left, but returned In the af ternoon and then, It Is claimed, he tried to frighten the passengers by shouting the Alliance would drift ashoro before morning. Ho insisted on being given the privilege of tak ing them on the Tatoosh to prevent their being drowned. Olson says that Bailey well knew It would have beon lmposslblo to tiansfer tho pas sengers In small boats on account of the high running seas. Tho following moining tho tug skipper returned and lenewed his dlckeiing tactics ot take In thp Alli ance. At the snmo time he carried a letter In his pocket from tho local agent of the Alliance for delivery to OlbOiu, instructing htm to take tho steamer in tow. After two hours of uboless talk, It Is recited In tho com plaint that the letter was delivered and the towage question settled. f) r . .
