THE CHINA MAIL,
COLLISION IN FOG
JUDGMENT IN ADMIRALTY COURT CASE
Mr. Justice Hill, in the Admiralty Court, found the steamer "City of Khios," of Liverpool, one-third to blame and the steamer "Delta," of Beifast two-thirds to blame for a col- ision off the mouth of the Tagus on July 10 of last year. The case had been transferred from the Liverpool District Registry.
His Lordship said both had reduced speed for fog, and were going slow just before the collision. The "City of Khios," however, was to blame for not stopping her engines m hearing the Arst of two long blasts, and the "Delta" ought have stopped sooner. Orders for hard-ustarboard and stop came at about the same time, and there was no justication for the hard-astarboard order. Alteration, of course, was quite wrong, and made the collision inevit able. The "Delta's" engines were not reversed immediately the "City of Khios" was geen.
