CREW EQUALLY BLAMED
FOR ROW ON STEAMER

A disturbance on the steamer War
wick, at 11:4b last night. between
members OF a party which had the
steamer under charter for a moonlight
sail. and the crew OF deckhands. most
ly Portuguese. caused others OF the
party TO score the action OF the
steamers crew as one OF the most dis
graceful occurrences that ever marred
a summer nights outing.
The party was one organized by the
Irving Colonial club. and numbered
about 500. Everything went well until
the steamer was returning to her dock.
and just as Point street bridge was
being neared the trouble broke out.
The row Is said to have broken out
when the dackhands objected to MEM
bers OF the party dancing on the saloon
deck. where an orchestra was stationed.
and that members OF the party believ-
ing. as they had the boat under char
ter. that IL was their right to dance on
that deck, resented the order TO cease.
Another version Is that the row was
precipitated because OF words OF an
insulting nature passed between Toney
Gomez, one OF the deckhands. and a
group OF young men in the cabin.
