The Rule Rescinded.

The board of supervising inspectors of
steam vessels at Washington has dis
posed of the vexed question OF the mode
of steering vessels by repeating the OBJ
noxious rule adopted last year. This
rule provided that all vessels should ar
range steering machinery so that wheels
shall turn in the same direction as the
head of the vessel. This created much
dissatisfaction on the lakes and portions
of the rivers and on the Jersey coast,
where the opposite practice prevails.
The board, therefore determined to
omit any attempt to regulate the matter
Tor the present and so repealed the rule.
