Decisions in Collision Cas,

DecisiOns IN Johnston Cases.
Judge Blatchiord has decided the following colli-
sion cases:-
smith d Ddr{S Us. S,trgis et ol.--This was libel
filed on the 3lst OF March, 1866 by the owners OF the
schooner Colonel Satterly TO recover $4,000 from
the owners of the steamtug Yankee, for damages
sustained by them through the Yankee running into
their schooner on the 28h Of December 1859, in the
lower bay OF New York. Judge Blatch1ord holds
that more than six years having elapsed after the
collision before the libel was filed, and there being
legal excuse for such delay on the part OF the libel
lants, the claim is barred by its stalenes4 and ne
therefore dsmisses the libel with costs.
BeRaef ri al. rs. The SedHner COlanlbid.-This was
libel filed by the owners of the propeller Fannie to
recover $4,000 for damages sustained by them by
the sinking OF that vessel by collision with the
steamer Columbia, on the evening OF the 9th of May
1864, near Fortress Monroe, in the Chesapeake Bay.
The Fannie was struck on her starboard side, abat
her midshlp, and soon sunk. Judge Blatchford held
that the proofs show that the Fannie Kept proper
lookout, and that she kept on her course without
anv regard TO the approach Of the Columbia and was
therefore, TO blame for the collision. The libel Is,
therefore, dismissed, with costs.

examination as judgment debtor,
On motion the defendants counsel admitted ser
vice of the order and the dsobedience of It under
his instructions, and rested his opposition on the
fact that although seven eight orders were granted
Tor the examination OF defendant, ana motions for
against defendant, they were all denied, on the
ground that the papers OF the plaintiffs attorney
were informal; but now, TO settle the practice, he
admitted the papers for contempt in the present
motion correct but he objected TO the iurisdc-
ton of the court on the grounds that, in February
V. Il. Kennedy referee, which order, though repu-
dated by paintn after obtaining the same, was
still IN existence and that therefore, the court had
no jurisdiction OF the proposed contempt.
Mr.. Sheehan, who appeared for the defendant,
stated he wished to make this test case TO settle
the practice In supplementary proceedings, as TO his
own knowledge great wrong was dong by changing
still in force and set aside by any order OF the court
and requested the Judge to settle the practice,
which was up to tpis doubtful.
