;
Commander of the "Elbe" declined to
deliver the man, but was to send
him to the Police Court under escort at noon this day (8th instant). On
the 7th instant I received a note
from the Prussian Vice Consul (enclosed #2), by which it appeared that the man could not be brought to Court and, in consequence,
I wrote
to the Vice Consul mentioning what the Summoning Officer had
reported to me
regarding the intention of the Commander of the "Elbe". I further stated
that the steps taken
were, under the provisions of Ordinance 4 of 1880, made especially for Foreign Shipping,
and that as the seaman
259
had deserted from the American Ship in this Harbor, it was shown to the Court that the
man had previously deserted the "Arcona", and to this I received
an answer this morning (Enclosed No 3).
The United States' Consul
came to the Police Court this
morning, to ascertain the result of this application, and
I made him acquainted with the refusal of the Commander of the "Elbe" to deliver over the seaman, and
I further told him (the United States' Consul), that I should
report
the matter to His Excellency
