The KnlckerbOckcr.

In looking over the Herald of the l4th Of April OBJ
served statement from Capt Ihayer Of the steamer
and tho steamer Knickerbocker, in which Capt Thayer
claims that the Oregon faster than the Knckerbocker
and that In rounding the battery he shut orr the Ore
CONS engine to allow the Knickerbocker to pass
II this much Of his statement is correct, would ask
why then did he not pass the knickcrbocker before
reaching this dangerous point, where either Of these
boats requires all the there is! Or If the Oregon
is much superior in speed, why not wait until the
point was turned when he could have had sufficient
room?
1t will be recollected that the Oregon last summer
upon the rocks within boats length of the place
of collision in which Capt Thayer states there is
for two such boats to She had the whole passage
way to herself at that time, and turned out to be in
sufficient to enable her to keep off of that known
by many as the Oregon rock"
Again. Capt. Thayer stated that he had his boat
into such dangerous position that he could not stop
her in time to prevent the collision Is possible that
man of Capt Thayers reputation for skill SC did not
know some little time previous to the collision that he
was approaching dangerous position Every Mt
all acquainted with this place knows that it Is utterly
impossible for two such boats the X and o. to pass
ono another at Haets Point without coming In contact
and in all my experience in steanboating this is the
first attempt at this place that has come to my know
ledge.
Further, fact stated in Capt Thayer's communi-
cation is that the chain boxes of the Oregon
run hard starboard the effect Of which to
the Oregon to do all possible damage
tlf Capt Thayer is the prudent man that some give
him .credit for being would his best have
BEEN either to have passed the X before reaching this
point say by taking the south side of Blackwes Island
the X having already taken the north side being
or, approaching Hell Gate, to have slackened his
speed and given the X opportunity to turn Hallett
Point which the place have on the route!
Why attempt pass the most difficult and dangerous
place The X" by turning the point must necessarily

For conduct similar to this the Governor, in charge OF
Capt. Thayer, lbeed; and, he has the reputa-
and sound Judgment cannot but entertain the opinion
that he actuated by malicious motives at the time
and shall accordingly hold him dnu responsible
