In reply to Mr Wotton, complainant denied making use of bad language before two ladies on board the ship off Tilbury.

Leander said he was assaulted by the defendant whilst he was at the wheel one day last April. The defendant struck him so violently that his eyes swelled up and he could not see out of them, and whilst in this wheel again.

Kahler also complained that the defendant assaulted bim, but this case was postponed until to-day for further evidence.

Boss said that he complained of swollen legs he asked to be relieved from the whool as he could not stand. Mr Black (the late second officer) said "wait a minute and 1 will get relief for you," complainant fell down, and the Captain then coming upon deck, aaked what was the matter. Complainant told him, and he (defendant) said "Oblay down and die, God d you." The de- fendant did not strike him. The Captais some days later threw his (complainants) oil-skin coat overboard.

Mr Wotton on behalf of the defendant admitted the assault on Taggart and Hart- ley, and also admitted having thrown Boss's coat overboard because it was lying on a newly painted house. He had the pooket book belonging to Hartley on board the ship, His Worship described the condtast of the defendant as unbecoming an officer, and anid that it was calculated to create a mutiny on board. He had never heard of such a case in the Colony before in connection with a British ship, as seven summons against a master at one time. He hoped that this case would prove a warning to him for the future. He was fined £2 for the assault on ago, 42 for the assault on Hartley, £3 for the assault on Howard, £1 for the Assault on Leander.
