THE MISHAP TO THE EASTERN.
Cast of Repairs Estimated at Ten Thousand Sterling.
The E. and A. liner Eastern, which was agroutíd-on-Salamander-Bank-Moruten Bay, for ten days, was Hoated into docki yesterday, wys the Brisbane Courier of February 10, The principal damage is on the port side of the keel, involving the whole of the bottom plating which is more or less corrugated, from about the fourth hatch to abuft the engine-room. The whole length of the rolling shock on each side of the rossel is damaged, having evidently acted as a buffer, and prevented further damage. Experts consider that the strength of the ship was her salvation, and those who examined her were agreably. surprised to Sad that the darings wus, com- paratively speaking, so little. It is re- ported that only one rivet was leaking badly, and that is in a tank. Captain Taylor stated that it was impossiblo" at -present to fully estimate the cost of repair- ing the ship, but he was of the opinion that it would involve an expenditure of about-£10,000. The ship would have to↑ rontain in deck about six or seven weeks, unless overtime was worked. It is stated: that there is now nothing to prevent the Eastern Troar profecding to her rojsalz-. ing port which, in this case, Sydney, The finding of the Marine Board in res.. post to the recent grounding of the steamer renohed the Treasurer on February 10, The full particulars of the finding were not at once made available, the Minister having dermed it advisable, before making it public, to submit certain questions to the Binxine Bourd, which are understood to have re- lation to the record and repulation of Filot Maxwell. That officer is one of the oldest pilota in the service, with a recont of some 2 years during which he has had only one minor mishap, which was held to he daquately inet by ine of £1. Sub quently, the finding was made availablo, and it proved to be in the following termsThe bard, having ente fully considered the evilence, find that the standing of the Eastern was due to over confidenco on the part of the pilot, in navigating the steamer in the North Channel at full spoel, when the heads were obscured by a passing qual, instead of anchoring until the weather cleared. Ho appanas not to have calculated the distance right, and also to have mixed up the identity of the buoy, The pilot frankly and unreservedly takes the blame for the casualty. entirely to himself, and the board. are unable to discover in the evidence any thing to warrant them either taking an opposita view, or implicating any one ase. The board therefore find that the tranding was caused by the default of Pilot Miniwell, nnd recommend that his. license as pilot for the port of Brisbane be suspended for three months. The Bnding of the bourd has been snidored by
ho Minister
