INQUIRY INTO ACCIDENT
WHICH COST Is LIVES
CONTINUED from Page /.

(Continued from Page ~
all agreed that the primary cause was
the exceptionally strong current
sweeping into the Milwaukee river
from the Menomonee, due to recent
heavy rains.
Captain Moody said that when the
vessel felt the current, he signalled
the engineer room to reverse power
and that both tugs pulled In an effort
to avert the collision with the dock.
Another version was that when the
current pushed the boat to the side,
the tug knight Templar, in charge of
Captain F. G. Maxon, was directly in
front and in danger Of being run
down. To prevent this, according to
this version, the tug cast off the tow
lines and the current quickly showed
the big boat against the stanchions.
Captain Maxon declined to make a
statement.
Another version, supported by river
and lake men is that the Christopher
Columbus turned to prevent a collis-
ion with the freighter Northern Light,
which was proceeding toward the out
err 'harbor.

DYKE MAY BE
CONSTRUCTED
Regular Monthly Session Of
Council to be Held Tues
day Evening.

The proposition Of constructing a
dyke to enclose q slough at the end
of North Fourth and North Third
streets on the outskirts of the city
will. be brought up for consideration
at the regular monthly session, Of the
East Grand Forks city CONDITIONER
row evening.
The proposition was considered last
winter, but owing to the excessive cost
of the work at that time, the matter
was dropped. Some action may be
taken at the session tomorrow even
ing, however.
During springs of exceptionally
high water, q few residents near the
end of the two streets have been
troubled with water in their base
ments, and it is to remedy this that
the dyke may be constructed,
Other routine matters also will be
taken under consideration at the ses-
sion, and bills for the month Of June
will be presented.
The regular session of'the Light and
Water commission will be held in the
council chamber of the city hall on
Friday evening at s O'clock. Nothing
but routine matters will e up.
