Opening Of the Public Baths-The View

Opening OF tho Public Baths-The New
Lavatories to be Opened ON tho River
Front.
The public baths were towed into position last
evening, and, alter the usual repairs, win be
opened about Friday Or Saturday OF this week.
The delay In providing the people with the con.
veniences for bathing has arisen mainly from the
difficulty which the Department OF Public Works
has had in procuring suitable location at which
to moor the baths. Tue pier at the loot OF Charles
street. the North River, has, since last fall been
leased by the Dock Department to a steamship
company, so that TO obtain this, as during last
summer, was impossible Commissioner Van Mort
finally succeeded in procuring q place for
the North River bath at the loot OF
West Eleventh street. This is only about
Ave blocks further up the river than tho
location occupied by the bath last season
and the approaches to the pier are much better.
The East River bath Is located at the place as
during last season, namely. At the loot OF East
Filth street. The location could not be bettered
on the East side and still be within reach oil the

however, OF getting the baths ready before the

Before Judge Blatchford.
Judge Blatchford has rendered decision In the
case OF Paul J. BackStack VS.. Charles A. Banks.
The defendant was mate OF the bark John +. Hol-
brook. and the libellant sued him to recover dam
ages Tor assault alleged to have been committed
on him on board that vessel, while she was lying
ut tine port OF Marsellies, France. The llbeIlant
was an Ordinary seaman on board the bark.
The Judge says:-rhe libel represents this as
case OF great hardship 1t alleges that the respond.
emit beat the head OF the ibeant against the cabin
ceiling, and knocked him down and pulled his hair
and jumped on his back with heavy boots after
ne was down. and severely injured him in the

long time to perform his duties. The libellant
claims $4,000 DAMAGES. the oatn OF the ltbellanr
TO the foregoing statement OF the libel was ad-
mirted by consent as evidence and he was not ex-
amiDed or crossexamined as witness. The
masters affidavit was admitted by consent as evil
dence. setting iortn that ne found the hhellant
bleeding and his head cut open. and that he was
master was not examned or cross-examined.
The respondent testlneS that. suspecttng the libel
he accused the ibellant while he was seated at the
respondent Of having taken the money; that the
llbelant then applied an offensive epiLhet
TO the respondent, and that thereupon
the respondent hit the lbellant on the
D partition. The respondent denies the other vlo-
leDce alleged. The evidence OF the respondent -
sustained by that OF one OF the other two persons
who were ut the table. The blow given by the re-.
spondent was not given In the course or dsclp.
line or to enforce obedience to orders or by way Of
punishment. As Tor the oppr0Drlous words, the
mate used them first by accusing the llbellant or
stealing. The assault by the respondent was with
out legal excuse. But the hbeant Is not wn
to have suffered any permanent injury rom It,
nor can conclude on the evidence that it was
