has done his best, to make the ship seaworthy. Therefore, it is broken, though the unseaworthiness be due to w hidden defect which the most careful inspection would not have revealed. The vessel must not only be seaworthy as a ship, but also reasonably fit to carry with safety the kind of cargo intended to be shipped. The obligation of the ship- owner is to supply a ship that is `sea- worthy in relation to the cargo which he has undertaken to carry." On the arrival THEATRE of the Washington Maru in London eight or nine rivets in the tween deck' and six in the lower hold, were found to be weeping, and the defendants set up the defence of perils of the sea, and contend. ed that the vessel met with heavy wea ther which loosened the rivets and caused them to leak. The plaintiffs replied that the proper inference, was that the rivets were in a condition to weep before ever the ship set sail on the voyage. It was a May, June and July voyage, and accord- ing to the legs the weather was favoury able. There was nothing heavier than a strong wind and nothing worse than a bead sea, with that rolling and pitching ordinarily incidental to every voyage from the River Plate to the United Kingdom. and which any ship usually encounters. Mr. Justice Hill stated in bis judgment that water must have begun to carly on the voyage, according to the logs recording the pumping which was carried out and which showed that water enter- ed in sufficient quantity to attract atten- tion. Ele continued that it was recog nised that the abip encountered only the. ordinary dangers of the voyage on which she had contracted to carry the plain FRIDAY, tiffs' enrgo; and, in his opinion, if in these circumstances rivets started weep- ing the necessary inference was that there was something wrong with them which made the ship, when she started on the voyage. unfit to encounter the ordinary peris of the voyage. It is said, and, I think, with great force, that where you. And nine rivets in a row at one place and six rivets in another place weeping, there is very strong reason for inferring that the loosening of the rivets is due to straining." Mr. Justice Hill pointed out that such a contention did not dis- pose of the inference that the rivets were not loosened during the voyage in question. Going back to the previous voyage, he found that the vessel was sub jected to a gale which varied.

he further remarked that in the neigh- bourhood of those sweating rivets other rivets were probably halamered. thought at that time" the rivets which subsequently showed defect had not start- ed to weep, as if they had the surveyors would have detected it; but he could not! infer from that that they were sound and continued sound until after the ship had left La Plata Concluding his judgment, Justice Hill said, Although I think it is probable that at the time the ship was examined the nine and the six rivets had not yet started to weep, I cannot inter from that that they were sound and con- tinued,sound until after the ship had set sail from La Plata until June 4th (when pumping was resorted to). The inference I do draw is that for some reason, before the ship took the cargo on board and sailed from La Plata the rivets in ques tion were in such a condition that, en- countering only the ordinary perils of the voyage on which she sailed, they started. It therefore comes to this, that the ship was not fit to encounter the ordinary perils of the voyage, and that means that the shipowners have broken the absolute warranty of seaworthiness which the law imposed. He therefore gave judgment for the plaintiffs with costs, the damages to be assessed by the registrar and per- chants!
FIRST RULE OF ROAD
In the opinion of these countries where driving to the right is practised, other countries are wrong in their rule of the road, that drivers abould keep to the left. It is interesting to observe, there fore; that the first rule" of the road was made by Pope Bonifacius VIII, who in 1200 ordained that traffic in Rome should drive on the left. This rule was adopted throughout Europe. until the French Revolution, when, like many other things, traffic regulations were upset.
