Responsibility for the collision be
tween the atearrter Sue H. Elmore and
tug Vosburg has been fixed by the In
spectors for this district, Captains Ed
wards and Fuller. The blame for the
accident has been placed upon Cap
tain Loll, master of the Vosburg, and
Captain Schrader of the Elmore has
been exonerated. Yesterday Captain J
Schrader received a letter from Mes
srs. Edwards and Fuller notifying him
that, as a result of the investigation
made into the disaster, he had been
exonerated of all bluine.
The accident occurred May -12 as
the vessels were steaming out of Tilla
mook. In a narrow channel the Vos-
burg tried to pass the Elmore, and,
falling to do so, crowded so close to
her that the suction rendered the steer
Ing gear of both vessels unmanage
able. The tug hit the steamer three
times, and narrowly missed ramming
her again.
Both masters made application to
the inspectors for an investigation
Captain Loll filing a claim for dam
ages against the Elmore. This claim
was protested. The Inspectors took
considerable testimony and decided
that the Vosburg was solely to blame
As punishment for his poor Judgment,
Captain Loll's license has been sus
pended by the Inspectors for a period
of 30 days. The Vosburg suffered dam
age to the extent of $500 In the col
lision, and has Just been repaired at
Portland.

Will Not Aoespt Low Rats.
The sudden drop In the price of
charters has caused much concern
among thoee ship masters now In the
harbor. Captain Turbet of the French
ship Laennec, states that his owners
will decline any such offer as 15 shil
lings, and that the .vessel wllf be tied
up before so low a rate Is accepted.
There are at present three disengaged
vessels In port. It hns been reported
that the Marechal de Noallles has been
fixed for gruln, but the report can not
be verified. Exporters say they are
unable to offer more than 15 or 16
shillings because of the high price
which they are compelled to paid for
grain, and some say the rate should
drop to 12 shillings. With the arrival
of the tonnage en route, a still further
Marine add lead
drop Is possible.
Following is a copy of the letter re
ceived by Captain Schrader from In
spectors Edwards and Fuller:
"Portland. April 28. Captain Foul
Schrader, Master Sue It. Elmore, As
toria. Captain: We respectfully In
form you that you are exonerated from
nil blame in connection with the col
lision between steamers Sue H. Elmore
and George It. Vosburg at Tillamook
bay, April 12, 1904. Very respectfully,
"E. S. EDWARDS,
"GEO. F. FULLER,
"Local Inspectors."
The Vosburg returned yesterday
from oPrtland and left out for Til
lamook before notice could be served
on Captain Loll notifying him that his
license has been suspended for 30 duya.
It is probable he will be notified upon
the return of the tug to Astoria, or, if
she should be absent for several days.
then notice will be forwarded to Tillamook.
The steamer .Elmore arrived In from
Tillamook last night with a very heavy
passenger and frelgttt list. 8he has
done practically all of the business
since the Inauguration of the rate war.
