MINNESOTA not
TANPl RED WITH

San Francisco, Dec. l4.-United
States District Attorney John W.
Preston stated tonight that the federal
inquiry into the disabling of the Hill
liner Minnesota so far had found moth
ing that would indicate any tanner
ing with the boilers Of the steamer.
The statement of the district attor.
ney was made during a recess in the
inquiry which is being held aboard the
steamer. The inquiry convened short
ly after the arrival Of the vesasel in
San Francisco harbor at high tide Late
today.
Preston Presided.
The inquiry was attended by MIR.
Preston, who presided, Joseph Doland
and James Guthrie, United States III
spector of hulls and boilers, and was
held in the cabin Of Captain Garlick.
who with the Minnesota's chief engi-
neer, was called into consultation.
Captain Garlick is reported to have
told the district attorney that he was
absolutely in the dark as to the cause
of the series of accidents which nee
essitated the Minnesota's return to
San Francisco after tie vessel was
well started on it's contemplated jour
ney to the United Kingdom.
Fire in Bunkers.
The captain said that there had been
trouble caused by fires in coal bunkers
and that one Of these was still burning,
but was under control. One fire, he
said, had eaten thru PARTITIONS into a
store room and cause considerable
damage.
Several slight explosions occurred,
he said, but these he did net consider
important. He said he thought they
resulted from gases generated from
burning coal.
So far as was made known no per-
sons aboard the vessel were under re
straint or in irons, and the ships DIFF
ficulties were entirely attributed =
natural mechanical breakdowns.
