Refusal to Give Location
of Drifting Vessel Is
Mystifying to Shippers
By Associated Press
San Francisco, Cal„ Dec. 7.—Ship
ping meh are mystified to-day by the
refusal of Captain Garlick of the dis
abled Great Northern Steamship
Minnesota to reveal the exact position
of the drifting vessel.
It is expected however, that definite
information will be received from the
tug, Dauntless, and the salvage steam
er I aqua, which left here Friday to
go to the assistance of the crippled
treighter, and which are expected to
reach her early to-day.
The opinion was expressed here by
W. Wiley, marine superintendent
of the Great Northern Steamship
OMnpany, that chemicals placed in
tne water might have caused tho
breakdown of the Minnesota.
MESTACH, CITY'S FIRST
BIRDMAN, PRISONER
The first aviator that ever encircled
the Capitol dome and one of the first
birdmen Harrisburg ever saw. is whil
ing weary hours away the best he can
in a German military prison in Mainz.
That George Mestacli, the airman,
who, with Paul Peck, thrilled thou-,
sands at Paxtang in 1911, is a prisoner
of war beyond the Rhine was eon
firmed by friends in this country
through a letter which Mestach wrote
from his cell. Mestach enlisted with
the French aviation corps early in the
war and was assigned to the army in
Belgium. From time to time repeated
tales of the death of the American fly
ing man "somewhere in France" were
denied. The first definite report of the
whereabouts of the birdman were re
ceived a lew days ago by friends in
New York, who got Mestach's letter
via Paris. The letter was not lengthy
—and it bore the earmarks of a very,
very careful inspection of German
military censors.
