His Honor Chief Justice Judd
rendered his discision at 3 O'Clock
p. NJ, in the libel suit of the Pacific
Navigation Company versus S. c..

On Tuesday night about II O'Clock
of the 29th June, 1886, the schooner
Moiwahine was proceeding on her
way from Honolulu to Kohala,
Hawaii. She was commanded by
Capt. M. Staples, a master mariner
of experience, this being his second
trip upon her. She was new
vessel, sound and seaworthy, well
equipped in every respect, and had
crew of Hawaiians and mate and
cook, in all nine souls. The Dow
sett was steamer but little over a
year old, running between Honolulu
and Kuau, a port near Kahului on
Maui. Capt. Charles V. Dudoit
was her master, man of long ex-
perience in inter-island navigation.
She had two mates, one engineer,
one cook and steward, and a crew
of ten men, in all seventeen. On
the night in question the Dowsett
had left Kuau, at about 6 :30P. NJ,
and was proceeding under sail and
steam down the Molokai channel for
Honolulu. The wind was the usual
trade wind, blowing at the rate OF
thirty miles an hour, in the direc-
ton of about T.. n. T.. The Dow.
sett had all sail set and her course

going at the rate of from nine t.
ten knots per hour.
"The Moiwahine was runnin!
