FORGOT TO HAVE
 HIS LICENSE RENEWED
Slip hy Engineer Damas Makes Delay for Steamer Block Island Saturday.

Steamer Block Island was 25 min utes late in leaving New London Sat urday morning for Watch Hill and Block Island The delay was due to a visit from United States Inspectors Withey and Stewart who found the chief engineer, William Damas, had no license to run the steamer. His license. issued in 19O7 expired on July 1, It has to be renewed every five years, but he had forgotten it this time
 Saturday Inspectors Withey and Stewart who were accompanied by Supervising Inspector John D. Sloan of Boston, boarded the Block Island in this city for the purpose of re- inspecting the steamer. They found all the licenses except the chief engineer in regular form. It was necessary for the chief to go to the custom house in | New London and secure a renewal be- fore the steamer could leave. Mir 1 Damas is regarded as no less compe- | tent an engineer, but the treasury de- partment regulations provide a fine of | $100 for forgetfulness like this.
