Boyle of the sixth ward, and Motorcycle Officer William S. Strolls, this morning, the charge of speeding on which Councilman Boyle was arrested Saturday afternoon by Officer Strolls on Stanley street was nolled in police court.
 Chairman Bannan, commenting on a report that he had brought about the dismissal of the charge last eve ming, said today that Councilman Boyle had spoken to him about in- tervening in his behalf and he agreed to speak to the prosecuting attorney but he had not undertaken 10 dismiss the charge as he had no light to do so. At police head quarters it was said today that the head of the department has the right to release persons charged with drunkenness, without bringing them to court but all other cases are en- tirely in the hands of the prosecut- ing attorney and his assistant once they are "booked"
 Boyle, according to the police, was stopped by Officer Strolls. who intended to caution him about the alleged fast rate of speed at which he was driving. They had words about 1t and finally the officer pre- ferred the charge and Sergeant King C, releasing him on his own recogniz- ance as IS frequently done in such cases when the alleged speeder is known to the police.
 Councilman Boyle is 36 years of age and lives on Commonwealth avenue. He is a democrat and one of the leading members of the council.

The officer did not know Councilman Boyle then or at the time of the arrest, Motorcycle Officer w. P. Hayes telling him who he was after the councilman was in the po- lice station.
 Officer Strolls reported that the councilman was driving nt the ap- proXimate rate of 80 miles an hour on Stanley street when he stopped him and cautioned him. The council man was bringing home cake of ice and is said 10 have told the of ficer that he was sick" of him. as were others in the Belvidere district. When ordered to turn around and drive to the police station under ar rest, the councilman is said 10 have refused 10 obey and finally the of- ficer took him from behind the wheel. with force. after having given him his choice of going to the sta ton in his own car or in the police patrol.
 The councilman agreed to go with the officer, and the latter allowed him to take the ice home and then drive to headquarters.

 The liner, on the other hand, suf- fered a flooding of her No. 1 hold and limped into port down by the head and with a slight list.
 The Prince Georges ten life boats were lowered within Is min- utes after the alarm was sounded and the ship put about and came alongside the Agassiz. Gangplanks were rigged and most of the pas- sengers, many of them with all their baggage, made their way aboard the patrol boat
 The Agassiz was under command of Boatswain G. P. Hammond, who was making his first trip as con- mander. Captain Adelbert Mac kinnon, a veteran of the Boston and Yarmouth Steamship Companys service, was on the bridge~of the Prince George and had crew of S1 under him.
 Of the entire passenger list of the Prince George. only four per sons were known to have elected to stay aboard. Misses Alena Conrad and Nellie Roode of Brockton, who were returning from a visit with their parents in Nova Scotia, wanted to remain but a steward advised them to quit the ship. Two male passengers refused and remained aboard.
 Even Babies Remembered
 The nine hours the Prince Georges passengers spent on the Agassiz were crowded ones for III concerned but the crew did its best to ease the plight of the unexpect- ed guests. Overcoats, bedding and blankets were spread on deck and large quantities of coffee and sand viches passed among the shivering passengers.
 Even women with babies were not neglected. Condensed milk was heated and diluted with water for the youngsters.
 Passengers Re-Transferred
 About Is miles off Boston the pas sengers were transferred again. when the cutter Mohave came alongside and relieved :he Aga ssiz in order that that vessel might proceed to the East Boston coast guard base for in- spection and repairs.
 The Prince George. a twin screw ship of 2194 tons, which has piled between Boston and Yarmouth for many years. put in at the Eastern Steamship Company's dock. Later she was taken to a drydock and en- ergency crews set to work in an en- deavor to have her back in service within a week.
