WILL BE HEARD
United States Inspectors to In
vestigate Charges IVjade by
C'apt. 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.
