BOLD MUD WALlI In order to guard against the current forcing the Mount Temple further on into the mud-flats, the Harbor Commissioners' dredge set to work between the stranded ship and the south shore, scooping up mud with which a mud wall wa em-ted against the liner's side, which should prevent her being driven further towards "the shore. While this work was proceeding, two lighters moored alongside the Mount Temple, one on either side, into which a considerable portion of the cargo was lightered, winches arid donkey engines working all the afternoon on board the liner as busily as though discharging cargo in port.

When Captain Moore, commander vessels lightly, failed to refloat her. the liner- was unable to get off the mud unaided, he sent messages for assistance- to the marine dent's office, and, in the absence ol Captain Walsh, Assitant Superintendent Elliott went down with the first of a fleet of tugs which combined in vain to refloat the stranded liner. More followed, so that eventually ten or eleven were on the spot, five which belonged to the Sin-cennes-McNaughton Company, two of the department of marine- and fisheries, and three to the Harbor Commissioners; but their united efforts, though they succeeded in moving the vessel lightly, failed to refloat her.

The commissioners went down with the floating workshop and a dredge, and later on, two lighters came alongside and commenced lightering the cargo so as to make it easier for boy and that when his brother knocked the other's cap his head, he retaliated with a blow which, led to a. fight which waxed fast and furious until the father of his brother's opponent came upon the scene f.nd took up the battle of his son, striking young Walsh several times in the face and knocking him to the street in a dazed condition. 7 An ambulance was summoned from the hospital, at'-which institution, after treatment, he soon became himself, but was detained at the hospital until 1 today when ail X-ray examination, will be made to ascertain whether or not his cheek bone has been broken.
