Later in the afternoon, how- ever, without reference, to any of the ship's officers, four members of the water police and six detectives boarded the ship, as it lay at the hulk Ameer.

Sallors Arrested,

The party went into the crew's quarters, and there they found-four sailors, who were off duty, playing mahjong, They questioned the sailors regarding the' squabble, and the sailors replied that they knew 6th Aug nothing about the affaire which

concerned a fireman, not a sailor.

This apparently enraged the police and detectives, who told the sailors that they had to come along to a police station, for not showing due deference to the police if for nothing else. The party there- upon laid hands on the four sailors and dragged them out on deck.
