was Tor SANDER saying that the paintin took out
IRON his female tenants in an immoral way, was

keeping bad house, as alleged, there was no claim
for special damages the compliant under that head
The complaint accordingly dismissed, with $3.50 al
lOWancc 10 defendant.

November 81, 1875, on Long Island Sound, between
schooner and tow. Tho schooner
bound westward and tho tow going
eastward, under command OF tho tug. There
three heavily laden Darqes IN tho tow rho allegation
on part tho schooner Is that she held her course
and that tho tug faicd 10 keep out OF her way
she bound TO do The tug claims thai inc schooner
did not keep her course, but that when near tho
tug she .iucd" up and this sudden change Of
caused tho collision. The Judge sustained the libel
against the tug, holding that the collision could only
have been avoided by or tho other giving way and
that IL was evidently the duty OF the tug, being a
steamer and more easily able TO control herself, TO
have avoided The collision.
