HONGKONG, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1893.
WHAT is now known we the Picnic Care was decided at the Magistracy yester day and considerable interest has been felt in the lengthy decision given by Noon-Meeting of Shareholders of The Captain Hastings. The reason why Canton Insurance Office, Ltd, at the special interest was taken in the pro- Company's Oflices,

towards the rowdy coxswain as ninety- Dine out of every hundred European residents would have done. There is M.not a particle of evidenco to justify the insinuation that the Europeans develop- ed the slightest shadow of rowdyism, and everything was done to secure the safety of all concerned and of the steam-launet. It is not necessary to analyse the evidence. Two Chinamen on deck (the engineer was below most of the time) give an admittedly exag gerated story of assault. To meet that chart the Europeane bring an accusa- tion of disorderly conduct against the Coxswain, and the evidence of four Europeana is pitted against the gross exaggerations (to say the least) of the Chinese. Even the Magistrate himself almost admits the existence of ap equality of culpability as regards the charges made against all the partisa But the offence (if such it is) which appears to have weighed so much with Captain Hastings in his decision is the removal from daty of the impudent and unruly coxswain, who it seame is in possession of a certificate from the Harbour Department. The removal of the coxswain from duty, for causes which soomed sufficient to the Euro- 2.48 peans on board, was no effected until the hirer of the launch bad been assaulted by the coxswain, and doubtless the business of deposing the coxswain was accelerated by his disorderly conduct. It seems, there- fore, that Messrs Fraser and Wood have been parished severely for having, 1932 according to the Magistrate's ruling, taken unlawful possession of the steam- launch in a wantonly stupid' fashion. By so adjudicating the case it would appear that Captain Hastings passed cn from the original charge to one of a much more grave character.
