To THE EprToR: This mornings is
sue contains short local TO the effect
that two gambling cases were dis
missed IN Justice Miller's court yes
terday because OF the failure of the
city attorney to be present TO prose
cute. Not being aware OF the true
facts have no doubt you inadvert-
emily reflected censure upon the
wrong person. The dismissal was
made, but the fault was wholly my
own. The city attorney was out of
town for couple of DAYS, partly upon
my private business. but particularly
TO be :. the bedside OF very sick
partner at Snohomish. Serious sick
ness in my own family prevented my
attending to that business myself.
The city attorney went for me. having
received my promise beforehand that
would particularly attend to and
prosecute the two cases mentioned,
which | promised to do. Just before
the time for calling mp the cases ar
rived, was suddenly called home be
cause Of sickness IN nv family aud
sent word to lawyer friend, who has
always accommodated Us in this re-
sslect. 10 attend 10 these cases for me.
When l returned from my home
learned that the LAWYER, to whom
had sent, had BOT been found and that
the cases had heeu dismissed. The
fault, however, is all my own, and no
one IS TO blame but myself, and the
above is my excuse. ii such be an cx-
cuse. Respectfully. j. l.. RONALD.

Testimony Before inspectors Bryant
and Rullene.
Inspectors Builene and Bryant yes
terday began the investigation Of the
collision that took place between the
o. r. a. n. steamer Emma Hayward
and the ferry City OF Seattle, in the
harbor last Thursday. Representatives
and employees Of both companies were
present in force. Judge Burke APP
peared for the O. r. Il N. company
and Colonel Haines for the City OF
Seattle.
The hearing OF testimony began at
2 and lasted until 4, and a number of
witnesses were examined in behalf of
the City of Seattle. The first was Cap
tain Oliver, of the ferry, who told the
story of the collision in a manner not
different from that narrated in the
account of the occurrence published at
the time. Captain Samuel Jackson. Of
the steamer Eliza Anderson, one Erick-
erson, the man who in his excitement
jumped from the deck of the Hay
ward to the City OF Seattle at
the moment of collision, and Messrs.
George Walker and Il. w. Neil.
passengers on the ferry, and
one or two others we're heard. All
agreed that the City of Seattle was at
the time keeping nearly in her course
to West Seattle; that the steamer ran
across the harbor to her port, and
after the first several hundred yards
gradually neared the ferry with the
evident intention of heading her off
and crossing in front of her; that
when the boats were but q short dis
lance apart and dangerously near, the
tenders of the steamer were thrown
down in preparation for the collision !;
that Immediately after the signal
whistles between the boats were
exchanged, the ferry slowed down,
but not in time to avert collision |:
that the Hayward did not attempt to
stop before she struck the ferry; that
her course at the time of impact
showed that she was trying to cross
the course of the City of Seattle !;
and other testimony of similar pur-
port.
This testimony was OF course ex
pdyte. the witnesses for the Hayward
not yet having been placed on the
stand. The investigation will be con-
unued at D. m to-day
