purpose Of taking action thereon, it
could not permit any of the signers
of the application to withdraw their
names from the application except
for cause; that none of the alleged
signers of the cards containing the
request to withdraw the names Of
signers of the application were pres
ent in person, nor was any reason
given to the defendant by those pre-
senting cards, nor was any reason
alleged in the cards, fer the with
drawal of the names of signers of
the application.
The complainant is informed and
believes and alleges the facts to be
that large number of names on the
cards presented by those opposing
the calling of the election were forg-
ed and complainant has asked per-
mission of the defendant to examine
the cards in order to determine
whether or not the signatures there
on are genuine, but defendant has
denied complainant the privilege so
to do.
That complainant believes that
when the defendant convenes as a
board of county commissioners on
Tuesday next, or at some other day,
that it will strike from compliments
application sufficient names to reduce
the number of signers upon tie peti-
tion, so that there will be an insult
ficient number Of signers upon the
petition to require the calling of the
election, to-wit, to less than one
fourth the registered voters of the
county, which will work an irrepar-
able wrong and injury to complain
ant, as well as the applicants for said
election.
The writ therefore asks that mas
much as the complainant is without
remedy, except drought the equit-
able relief and remedy of the hon
orable court, may it please the court
to grant unto the complainant the
states writ Of injunction, directed 70

cants for the election to be with

ing the board from refusing to enum-
crate and count the names upon the
cards, as among those making appli-
cation for the election, and that the
board Of county commissioners be
further enjoined and restrained from
refusing to call and provide for an
election in the county, in accordance
with article 10, constitution of the
state of Florida. and laws made in
pursuance thereof, to decide whether

STORY OF
STRANDED SHIP

CERNING THE ITALIAN
STEAMSHIP METLAoUI, WHICH
WAS ON THE REEF.

Arriving in advance of the steam
ship Metlaoui, which was on the reefs
near Biscayne bay, Fla, were some
rather imaginative stories, some OF
them bearing Miami date line. One
of these had it that the steamer was
laden with munitions of war and was
bound for a Russian port via the
Panama canal, and that, for some rea-
son, her name plate had been hidden.
Following is one story which
found prominent space in Florida and
other newspapers:

Some GrOundless RumOrs.

Rumors relative to the cargo of
the Italian tramp steamer aground
on Ajax reef, reached Miami yes
terday, and hints were heard prior to
these rumors, to the effect that the
vessels name was obliterated and
that the captain and crew would
answer no questions regarding yes
sci, cargo or destination.
It now develops, according to re-
port, that the tramp was loaded with
munitions of war ser the Russian
government and was on her way to
Vladivostick by way of the Panama
canal.
This belief would seem to be borne
out by the statement of returning
wreckers who declare that there is
one hatch which has not vet been
opened and that the captain refused
to permit the opening of this hatch.
The vessel went aground within
two hundred and fifty to three hun
dred feet of the old wreck of the
Alicia, and though on her way south,
the steamer is headed north. This
unusual condition is accounted for, it
is said, by statements of the captain
that he saw the bow of the Alicia
sticking up in the dim light and be-
heved it was bouy. He attempted
to turn toward the shore and round
the bouy and ran hard aground.
1t was expected that the tramp
would be fioated at high tide last
night, when she would proceed on her
way to Key West, where arrange
ments for paying~the wreckers, or Of
taking charge of vessel and cargo
for salvage, would be made.
All efforts to learn the name of
the tramp, her captains name, the
nature of the cargo, destination and
other information, were said to be
unavailing, according to Captain
Chas. H. Thompson, one of the
wreckers, who came to Miami yester-
day for supplies.
The tramp struck the reef in the
darkness several nights ago, and for
time attempted without assistance
to free herself from the clutches of
the deadly Ajax reef. Then the
government vessel Miami came to the
rescue, but merely stood by until the
tramp was turned owed to the wreck
ers.
