THE Cry OF WAsHINGToN.- -Netv York
July is. A Halifax dispatch says: The
Court to investigate the City Of Wash
ington disaster reassembled yesterday,
when Capt. Scott rendered his decision
The decision reviews briefly the testimo.
ny and eXonerates all subordinate officers.
and concludes:
Having duly weighed all circumstau.
ces and worked all reckoning, as shown
in log book, am of opinion that it was
imprudent to ignore dead reckoning be-
tween the Goth and 9th of June, which
showed the ship was considerably to the
Northward. and this could not have been
due to current. 1t must have been shown
that compasses had large amount Of
Easterly deviation. 1t was also impru.
dent to pass Grand Banks, Newfoundland,
without trying for soundings to correct
reckoning, seeing that for six days no
observations could be obtained, and that
thick weather prevailed two days. After
so passing the banks, it was highly i'm.
prudent to continue full speed without
taking cast Of lead to show that the
ship was off soundings, and particularly
so when it ought to have been known by
the master so mucn more iron and steel
had been placed on board ship since COM
pass corrections had been obtained. Tn.
der these circumstances, | am of the
opinion that the masters certificate of
service held by William Robert Phillips,
master, should be suspended for the space
of one year from the date of the loss of
the steamship City of Washington, and
this certificate is hereby suspended &C.
cordingly."
