will have to make their deals during July, so as
to have their shipments secured before nayiga-

yesterday that they anticipated good busi-

The Narragansett survivors.

EosToN, June 26.-At meeting OF the com.
mittee appointed recently by the sufferers by
day. the lawyers upon the committee expressed
the opinion that the limited liability act would
avail the defendants nothing fn case suits for
damages were brought against the company In
the civil courts IL was claimed that the navt-
cation laws were grossly violated. and that
therefore the steamboat company as common
carriers were liable to the full extent OF damages
The committee recommends that the sufferers
by the disaster do not enter their claims in the
New York admiralty court for share In the
proceeds of the wreck. but that they seek their
remedy at common law. 1t was stated that IL a
sufferer entered a claim for share oil the wreck
it might nullify any action he might biing
against the corporation in the state courts. The
time allowed for proving claims is until the
fist Tuesday In october. The committee re-
ports that the purchaser OF the wreck OF the
NaTaganSett for 600 was the attorney OF the
steamboat corporation, so that the company
really bought their own wreck. In order to test
the validity Of the claims and TO ascertain
what courts have jurisdiction in the matter A.
V. Lynde. one OF the committee, has COM
menced suit for $4,000 damages for loss OF
baggage, personal injuries and nervous pros
trat'on. The property of the steamboat CON-
pany in Massachusetts has been trusteed to
that amount, and the case is returna-
The result OF the committees deliberations and
recommendations decided upon will be mailed
