The writer briefly stated that if some one would follow the directions laid out in a map on ihe reverse side of the letter that a body would be found. The iting was in a ms hand and the per- son had evidently taken great pains in the execution of the map, every de being correct, as was proven The letter was forwarded to De u\) Coroner Cunningham at Baden and he was instructed over the telephone by h superior to_make a thorough =earch for the body. Cunningham scoffed at the idea and it was not until several 01[1 ens had insisted on some action being taken that he decided to form a posse and with the aid of the map make a systematic search for the body.

Captain John Bermingham, Supervising Inspector of Hulls and Boilers for the First District, handed down a decision yesterday affirming the findings and judg- ment of Local Inspectors Bolles and Bul- ship May Flint in a collision with the United States battleship Iowa in the bay on the night of September 8. The los inspectors found that Captain M. A. ‘Woodside, master of the May Flint, had navigated the May Flint on that occasion in an unskillful manner and they accord- ingly suspended his license for one year. Captain Bermingham in his decision says that the May Flint was one of the largest sailing vessels in the world, and adds: “This court is of the opinion that no skillful pilot would have that night taken such a huge ship as the May Flint under sail up the fair way along the water front above Lombard-sireet wharf, where there was plenty of wind, but instead would have wore ship off shore to wind on her starboard tack and let go her anchor where sufficient room could readily be found.
