of the steamship Judus, the sum of $1,457.64, damages alleged to have been caused to the junk by a collision which occurred between the mail steamer and the junk off Hong Hai Day, in the China Sea, on Sunday evening, the 22nd September last. The plaintiff, however, in order to bring his claim within the jurisdiction of the Court waived the sum of $457.64, part of the sum of $1,457.64, thereby reducing his claim to the sum of $1,000 He further claimed the costs of the action,

the Indus was 16 miles to the West of Fedro Blanca le had travelled over that course 30

Sept, at the change of the monsoon, there were only very strong tide currents from Breaker Point to Hongkong. Flood tide currents lasted longer than ebb. His cabin was on the upper deck at the bridge near where the officer was on duty. He came out of his room at 4,15 a.m. and was certain that no collision occurred because when approaching Chinese junks the custom was for the native fishermen to shout very loudly. Had he collided with a junk he would have considered it his first duty to stop and render assistance. He gave his word of honour as a gentleman and an officer that nothing happened while coming from Shang-

THE DEFENCE,·

FIRST NEWS OF ANY COLLISION being alleged against the Indus, was received In opening the case on behalf of the defend-

15 days after his arrival at Marseilles. The ant company, Mr. Hastings said that the Mes morning of the alleged collision was dark sageries Maritimes, as his Lordship would and cloudy, and rain fell at times. When the have gathered from the statement of defence for cleared off he saw twe steamers bebind the which had been filed, denied that the IndusIndus and noticed that they came into Hoog colledid with plaintiff's junk. The Fades left kong about half an hour after his arrival. Shanghai at midnight on the 19th September fast year and proceeded down the coast at her usual speed, and at 8.20 p.m. on the following day was off Breaker Point. The evidence of Captain Douglas was, to the effect that French mail boats did not go 15 knots per hour, but he thought the evidence would show that the Indus could steam at that rate, and did so for a portion of the jouracy from Shanghai to Hongkong. That speed; however, was not maintained, for on several occasions. during the night it was considerably reduced. The Captain of the Indus would be able to lay down the course of his ship showing they passed as usual inside of Pedro Blanco, and at the time the collision, was alleged to have occured were some 15 to 20 miles beyond the Island. With regard to the question of current, Captain Douglas had already informed the Court there might have been one running at about two knots, but the witnesses for; the defence

DID NOT AGREE

with that statement as they contended that is was at the change of the monsoon when cur- rents were very varible and might be running either to the East or to the West. The officers of the Inder would inaintain that not only had they no current against thèm on the day in question, but that they had one in their favour, and it was perfectly clear that such was the case considering the time taken between the Lammocks and Breaker Point, It was impossible for a ship on her course know what current she had until land or other means of ascertaining her position was sighted. Supposing a ship started from Breaker Point at night at a certain time and proceeded along the coast at a definite speed without passing any lighthouses she could not tell until ascertaining her position what cur rent was running either with or against her. In the present instance the Captain, of the

In cross-examination, witness said he slept like a sailor "always on the alert and ready for anything." According to the log. while passing Breaker Point he was going at 15 knots, and at to p.m. it was reduced to 13 knots and from 5 to 6 o'clock they slowed down to 10 knots, while at seven o'clock the speed was further reduced to eight knots. The Indus passed seven miles to the north of Fedro Blanco, and it depended on circumstances whether they slowed down on arriving at Breaker Paint in the morning of the day named he noticed two steamers following behind his ship, one being a fairly large boat and the other a coaster. They did not have white hulls and black funnels.

Further evidence was then taken and the case was again adjourned till Friday next.

Arthur Dommock, of H.M.5. Albion, to-day was sentenced to serve six weeks in goal for larceny and 14 days for assault. A shopkeeper had his show case open displaying some goods

to a customer, and Dammock walked into the store, boldly took a silver bangle from the case, and started to walk out. The proprietor naturally objected to this method of disposing of his goods, and together with one of his coolies, attempted to force the return of the stolen article. A pitched battle ensued, and from, the looks of the faces of the shopkeeper and coolie this morning, Dommock must be a "hard hitter." They secured their bangle all right, but received a severe beating in exchange.

Captain Gustave Duchateau was then called He deposed that he was a lieutenant in the French Navy and was Captain of the Indus. He left Shanghai for Hongkong on the 19th Sept. last carrying the mails. The Lammocks were passed at 4-47 on the 21st of that month and at 8.20 pm, he made Breaker Point. There was a current running at 6-1oths of a mile per bour in their favour between those two points, At Breaker Point he was running at 14.6-10th or perbaps 15 knots, per hour, and later in the even ing the speed was reduced to 134 knots which was maintained unth 4.20 the next mering.
