MARINE:

From the rumor along the water
front last night, any sailing vessel ar
irving today may have a. little trou-
bic in entering the harbor, as the tug
Intrepid is temporarily without crew.
The story is that one of the engineers,
on account of some trouble which he
has been In recently, proved distasteful
to the other members of the crew and
they demanded his discharge.
The demand was made in a manner
which Captain OLSON did not like and,
believing that if the demand was ac-
ceeded to, it would destroy the dis
cipline of his crew, he Immediately
discharged the entire outfit. In all
probability a settlement will be reach
ed today and the crew will go back to
work. If not, new crew will be pick
ed up at once, for it would never
do for the tug to be out of commits
sion at this season, when many sailing
vessels are expected and work in turn
ing steamers which are going out, is
of almost daily occurrence.
