Mud Bank.
VALLEJO, Jan. Water was let into
the dry dock this morning, and the
cruiser Baltimore was once more fioated.
At l O'Clock, being high tide, she was
hauled out. The tide was running
1uriously, and her hawsers snapped like
thread. The vessel was caught in the
current and whirled over to the Vallejo
side. The anchor was dropped, but not
IN Tune, and the big cruiser brought up in
the mud almost against the wharf The
tide falling she keeled over very consid-
eraoly to the starboard, and now lies in
an unpleasant, though not dangerous,
position. 1t is hoped that she can be
hoated off at high tide tomorrow after
noon. Her engines are being repaired,
and she is unable to get up steam, and
must depend on a small tug to haul her
oil. She may perhaps have to go back
into the dry dock to see whether the
grounding has injured the hull, but it is
hoped not.

The general impression Is that Sullivan
and Dixon can't lose but that 1t is more
difficult to pick winner In the light
weight contest. The odds have turned in
other places in favor of Meyer but there
are local admirers of Jack McAuliffe who
would give odds IL necessary that the

think that he can hold his own with the

The interest will be found to be alive
when the fights begin and it is probable
that considerable money will change
hands in the city.
