CHARTER DECISION.
A QUESTION OF DEVIATION.
LONG-DRAWN-OUT CASE.
It is a well-settled principle of law that where a contract is made for a voyage between named ports and contains terms which confer privileges on the owners, those terms do not apply if in the course of the voyage the vessel makes a deviation from her direct route not either expressly or impliedly authorised by the contract. It is another principle equally well set- tled that where a charter party confers liberty to call at ang port in any order the words will ordin- arily be taken to mean any port on the line of route between the port of departure and the port "of destination. In'
ét case which has been fought unsuccessfully for five years from an arbitrator to the House of Lords, these two principles were applied relentless
