The Master of the Michael Jebsen and the First Officer, Mr. Petersen, had given evidence that the stopping of the engines had nothing in world to do with the Chian Lee. On that fact Counsel wished to mako three submissions.
1. That as a matter of law and purely as a matter of law, the Michael Jebsen was not allowed to say that the stopping of the engines was not for the purpose of avalding a colli-i

SUGGESTIONS
ARE
HELPFUL
Throughout the year but probably more often during the approach of Christmas, gift suggestions are welcomed; and in this con- nection the service of newspaper advertising is beneficial to seller and buyer alike. Thus the newspaper fills the part of a directory which enters the home daily.
There is nothing stale about it; it guides in the trend of Fashion and gives a faithful indication of progress in every Industry.
Between now and Christmas, many thousands of people will scan the pages of the Telegraph, and many of them will be delighted at the gift suggestions it contains.
They change so fast, there should be a new picture at least once a year, for photographs of the children never grow up.
