The pilots of the steamers Wakefield and Randall have been suspended for a period of ten days. This action was taken by Gen. Du- mont, the supervising inspector general of ‘steam vessels, as tho result of the investigation which he directed should be made into the cir- cumstances of the race and the collision be- twoon the two vessels on the 24th of June, an account of which was published in Taz Stam. ‘The report of the inspectors who conducted the investigation is as follows: Sream Vesset Ixsrectiox Service, Orrice or Locat, Ixsrectons, Batriwone, Mo., July 19, 1898. par ten General of Steam Y up's of Steam Vessels, Washington, D.

C., to determine the cause that Jed to the collision that occurred June 24, 1893, between the steamers Wakefield and Harry Randall on the Potomac river nearly abreast of Chatterton, Va. Thirty-three witnesses were examined in the case, We find the following facts as taken from the evidence: June 24, 1893, about noon, the steamer Wakefield backed out from Smith's wharf, on the Potomac river, bound to Chatter- ton, on the Virginia side. About the same time the’ steamer Harry Randall, bound down the river with an excursion ps roaching the Wakefield ww one blast of her si whistle and re- ceived one in reply from the Wakefield. The Randall came close up on the starboard quarter of the Wakefield, and they continued to ran side by side for a distance of five or six miles at a rapid rate of speed, and about one-half mile out of her regular course. When abreast of Chatterton the Randall blew one blast of her steam whistle and put her helm hard tempting to pass the Wakefield caused a slight broadside collision, but doing no damage owing to the prompt action of the captain of the steamer Wakefield in putting his helm a starboard, stopping his engine and blowing the anger signaleallowing the Randall to pass, je are of the opinion that both captains are at fault. The captain of the steamer Wakefield, after having proceeded as far as Thorn’s gat, where his course changes from 8. by E.to S.8.E., should have slowed down and allowed the Ran- dall to proceed on her regular course, aud not continued to crowd her with his port helm. ‘The captain of the steamer Harry Randall, after having reached abreast of Thorn's gut, | where his course changes from 8. by E. to SE. by 8. and finding that the Wakeficld stifl per- sisted in crowding him with his port helm, should have slowed down and passed astern of her and not continued to run out of bis Course in an effort to pass out abead of the Wakefield. | ‘This last maneuver, made when near Chatter- | ton, was reckless, and 9 serious collision was avoided only by the prompt action of the cap- tain of the steamer Wakefield.

Morton, theatrical manager and the husband of Lilly Post, has been sent to Bloomingdale Insane Asylum. Mr. Morton lived in this city a dozen years ago and used to sing in the choir of St. Patrick's Church. The Herald says: Mr. Morton and his wife resided in a fiat at No, 390 West 51st street. Early yesterday « cab drew up before the door. Soon afterward the door of the fiat house opened and two men emerged. One scemed very feeble and Jeaned heavily on the other's arm. The cab was driven across town and then turned to the south. When 34th street was reached the cab was turned to the east again. Suddenly one of the men put his head from the window and yelled to the driver to stop. He was obeyed aud wheu the driver jumped from his box an to the window he was told to run fora poli “My patient,” violent.” The cabman soon found Policeman Benning of the East 35th street station, who entered the cab. It was then driven to Bellevue Hospital, reaching there shortly after 2 o'clock. ‘The “‘patient” was escorted into the office by hie companion and the policeman, and, after an entry on the hospital slips, was taken to » room. ‘This is the entry: Wattage H. Bussmann. No, 350 Went Stet street re = bi 00, Sa. Seamined by Dre Dousiase’ friend. wite Lilly. On the back of the card was written: ht by Dr. Ci of No. 252 West 62d street and Policeman Benning in a carriage. ‘The ‘‘patient” remained in the hospital until 8 o'clock last night, when, accompanied by Dr, Clelvad, he was driven away. The hospital officials’ said he was taken to Bloomingdale Asylum. ‘The coincidence of address and the wife's name gave rise to the ides that instead of Buss- mann the patient was Morton. When I called at No. 330 West Bist street last night and rang Willy H. Morton's bell I was met by a young wontan ‘who bore a striking re- semblance to Lilly Post. Bhe assured me she was not Miss Post and thatehe did not know Mr. Morton, and then the retired. ‘The janitor of the flat told me afterward that the young woman was Mrs. Mor- ton and thst her husband had been taken to an asylum the night before, jo one in the houso is named Bussmann, nor did any of the tenants know of any one of that name. No one in the theatrical business could be found who knew a manager of that name. When I called at Dr. Cleland’s house he was not at home, but I was told byan attendant that he had been attending Mr. Morton. Morton dst displayed symptoms of the trou- ble three months ago, when he became feeble and at the same time his mind wandered. eee Cardinal Gibbon’s Silver Jubilee.
