a revised report was received at tho

elusive and satisfactory, the acceptance
of the vessel was ordered.
On the trial of the Charleston she
failed to show the horse power required
by contract of $50, which would make it
appear that the boiler capacity of the
vessel was not reached by her machinery
and the constructors asked for another
triul, indicating several slight changes

department concluded not to permit a
second trial TO take place.
Whether or not under this condition
