The Irmgard and John f. Miller Arrive
With Masts Gore.
Loungers on the water front yesterday
we're surprised to see dismantled vessel
under sail-at least what was left of her
sals-proceedlng at good speed down the
bay toward the sugar dock, off which she
came to anchor.
Her foretop masthead and maintop-mast
were gone. She had no gallant royal or
skyrail mast, and presented on the whole
quite dilapidated appearance. But from
her miZzen royal mast fioated the stars and
stripes, which streamed in the breeze and
seemed TO triumph In the safe arrival OF
the vessel.
The vessel was the new barkentine 1rm-
gard, recently built on Puget Sound. 1t
was her return from her second trip to
Honolulu and she had met with disaster.
She left Honolulu on May 3lst, and had
been only six hours out OK port when she
was struck by squall, which carried away.
her gallant, royal and skysail mast, her
fore-topmast head and NAL -t0pmast.
Instead of returning to Honolulu for re-
pairs, Captain Paul resolved to proceed on
his journey, and managed to bring his gal
liant little craft safe to her destination. The
lrmgard is one of the Understanding and
staunchest barkentines that ever entered
the bay. The trip took twenty-five days,
whereas her first voyage only consumed
thirteen and a half days on hex return trip
from Honolulu. She brought cargo of
sugar.
The schooner John F. Miller, loaded with
lumber from Coos Bay, entered the harbor
about o'clock last night with her maln-
topmast and rigging carried away Before
the marine reporter of the Merchants Ex-
change could board to ascertain the particu-
lars of her accident she Veered around and
went up toward Vallejo.

SMELLS IN COURT.
Noted Case That Has Been Taken Be-
fore the Highest, State Tribunal.

fore the Highest state Tribunal.
The Quincy smelt case, which has been
been before the Superior Criminal Court in
Dedham. has now assumed a new aspect.
The defendants are George FL. Thurber.
Charles l.. Prescott and Samuel Gregory,
who were complained of before the court at
Quincy two years ago. charged with taking
1000 smelt by seine or net. The law pro-
vides that each person engaged shall forfeit
81 each for smelt SO taken The defend
ANTS were acting together in taking the
smelt, and Judge Humphrey of the District
Court at Quincy found them guilty and
fined each $3.50. The defendants appealed,
and at jury trial in Dedham last fall the
defendants were found guilty of SO taking
$50 smelt. The defendants, through their
counsel, John L. Eidridge, have appeared
before Judge Aldrich in the Superior Court
at Dedham and moved an arrest of judg-
ment upon the ground that the defendants
were originally each found guilty Of taking
by seine $50 smelt, and no more; that said
Judgment substantially acquitted them sew
orally and jointly of taking the remainder
OF the 1000 smelt as alleged that the YER
dict of the jury finding that the defendants
took $50 smelt was, therefore, inconsistent;
that the defendants had been put in jeop-
ardy twice for the same act. and that there
could be no judgment in the record, all of
the facts relied upon appearing in record.
Lawyer Eldridge's motion, which lawyers
think good one, has been Overruled by
Judge Aldrich, and now the case will be
sent to the Supreme Court.-B0Ston Herald,

send, on trial for extortlon, came TO sudden
termination In the United States District Court
to-day, Judge Hanford instructlng the
Jury 10 fud a verdict OF mot guilty."
Immediately after the Government submitted
its case. The case was an indictment for extor-
ton on twenty-five counts OF charging excessive
fees for entering and clearing vessels from the
Port Townsend Custom-house, While defendant
was Special Deputy Collector of Customs. Ii
was shown that the defendant had receipted for
illegal fees on white receipts furnished
by himself and had entered legal fees on stubs
of the receIpt-b0Ok provided by the department.
The court ruled that the prosecution had failed,
because Il had not been shown that the fees
were not paid voluntarily. The defense claimed
that the extra fees were for blanks furnished by
the Collector.
The case against Herbert F. Beecher, ex-COl-
leetor OF Customs at Port Townsend, charged
with larceny from the CustOm-house of a book
entitled Records OF Moneys Received From All

Aus.raIian Mail Service.

Communication between this city and
Australia by the mail service seems to be
on the eve Of being closed. On Thursday
dispatches were received here from Sydney
stating that unless the United States con-
tributed toward the mail subsidy the Sydney
Government would withdraw the mail
service.
Robert ]. Creighton, agent of the New
Zealand Government, confirms these dis
patches and states that he has had official
advices by cable of the same purport. Last
year Australia was in favor of close and di-
rect intercourse with the United States.
The Chambers of Commerce of Sydney and
Melbourne passed strong resolutions favor
ing that end and recommending a contnu-
ance Of the mail service via San Francisco,
on the condition, however, that the United
States should contribute equally with them
toward the cost of the service.
Recent events and these dispatches
would indicate that the Sydney Govern
ment had concluded that this Government
was Indifferent to Australian trade. This
trade amounted last year to nearly $780,
100000 for total population of 1900, O0C
people.
