Two aalllnaSresaela are heln ilntalneil in the harbor because of trouble over sailors. Both are laden with wheat and ready in all other respects to start out on the long run to the United Kingdom. They are the British ship Arctic Stream and the German ahlp Nereus. i ne Arctic stream is being held up by the immigration officials because Sec ond Mate H. Croach is violently Insane at the Salem asylum. The Immigration officials demand that Captain Dixon de posit enough money here to cover tha expense of having the man deported to hi home in Europe in care of a guard. Captain Dixon hesitates paying the money the amount being several hun dred dollars, on the ground that the mate was not Insane wnen he was paid off. He says he let him go because he was Incompetent. The Nereus Is held up by two causes. In the first place two sailors. Smith and MacKensle, who signed on her the other day, have been spirited away from the windjammer in some mysterious manner, and In the second place one of ine saiiors wno came nere witn tne ves sel from Valparaiso, got away In vio lation of the Immigration law. He had been at the hospital till a few days ago and on the way to the shin made his escape. The Immigration officials hold that in order to remain here the young man must be possessed of $50. whereas he only has $26. They are trying to lo cate him this afternoon. The two Bailors who have disappeared so mysteriously, were signed ; on by Captain Muller without aid of the local snllor boarding-house masters, Captain Muller having decided to save the ex pense of paving tribute if not neces- une or tne men had been stav- Geo.
