The Morning Hearing." At the morning hearing Mr. C. A. 8. Rum, appeared on behalf of the twelve defendants; Mr. O. E C. Marton held a watching Brief on behalf of the Company, Mr. G. W. "Coysh, Deputy Shipping, Master was present and also the Revd. G. T. Waldegrave, of the Missions to Seamen, and Sub Inspector Andrews of the Water Police
Application. For Amendment Of Charge..
At the outset of the proceedings, Mr. Hall Bruttan asked leave to amend the charge of "disobeying the lawful command of the Cap tain, to what he considered as the true and correct charge under which the case should proceed, namely “refusing without reason able cause to proceed to sea" fol- lowed by an additional charge of combining with others of the crew in disobeying the orders of the Master so dato impede the progreas of the ship.'
Mr. Russ asked his Worship what was the actual charge." Mr. Brut- ton had given him to understand that an additional charge would be made, but he did not know any thing of the charges just mention- ed.
▲ Telegram. And What Is Baid. At this juncture, a messenger handed Mr. Hall Brutton a tele- gram, and after reading it, he❘ Landed it to the Magistrate any iog: "That is the answer." The form was also shown to Mr. Rusa, who exclaimed Ah-Now I under- stand exactly what I was told yes terday, but which I did not be lieve.
Authority To Sign On Uhinese Craw.
V
નર્
It is understood that the tele gram was a reply to the Captain, who had wired for £5,000 and authority to pay of the British craw, and engage a Chinese crew. Whatever the result of the proceed ings. The reply we learn instruct ed the Captain to sail without de lay, and authorising the charge of crew.
Mr. Russ then asked whether his clients would receive their wages in full. He hoped that his men would be left in the hands of the | Magistrate
and the Shipping Office and not with the Master.
The Magistrate, replied that they were fully protected by agreement, and adjourned the Court until 4 p.m. to enable details of the pay- ing off to be discussed with the Shipping Master
