Judge Nelson, of the United States Dis
trict Court, in the District of Massachusetts.
mas Just rendered decision of great impor-
lance to those vessel owners who are using
steam fog horns on sailing vessels. The case
In point was that of the steamer Parthian
VS.. the schooner Florence In the morning
Oh July 10. 1890, the Florence. bound from
Bangor to Philadelphia was thirty-five miles
southeast by east of Sandy Hook. when she
was, in the midst of thick fog, run into by
the Parthian. The circumstances of the COL
lision, as appeared at the trial, were as fol-
lows: The ParthiaD, of the Boston and
Philadelphia line was on one of her usual
trips from Philadelphia to Boston. The wind
was light from the northwest. As the Par
THAN was proceeding on the course to the
northward enveloped in the fog, the men In
charge heard on the port bow prolonged
blasts, repeated at frequent intervals and
coming nearer, resembling blasts made by a
steam whistle, which they took to be fog sig.
nails OF vessel under steam. The steamer
was thereupon slowed down to half speed,
and two short blasts were made with her
whistle as signal that she would direct her
course to port and pass the approaching
reply two short blasts, and deeming this to
be an acceptance of the proposal indicated of |
her signal that the vessels should pass each
other starboard to starboard her wheel was
put hard to starboard. AS she was falling
on TO port under her starboard wheel her
signal was repeated, and receiving back a
single blast only, her wheel was thrown
over hard TO port and her engines stopped
-eaa reversed full speed astern; but before
she could be stopped the schooner Florence
appeared out of the fog, crossing the Par
thian's bows from starboard to port. Moth
ing more could be done to prevent collision,
and she struck the Florence in her port SIDE
Just off her main rigging. The sounds
which the men on the Parthian had mis-
taken for fog signals of a steamer proved to |
have come from the Florence, and were |
made by huge copper horn blown by steam |
supplied from steam boiler ON board. She /
had no atmospheric horn ON board, but car /
rled instead this instrument. blowing steam |
to be used for signaling in fog. The evil |
depce was clear that the sound produced by |
1t closely resembled some varieties of |
whistles used on steam vessels and was so
similar as to deceive and mislead those hear.
ing 1t at distance, especially in fog. The |
Judge has decided that, as the horn sounded |
like the whistle of steamer, the master of |
the Parthian acted perfectly properly; and |
that the master of the Florence was wholly |
TO blame In making fog signals by means of |
an instrument not sanctioned by sailing |
rules. 1t is evident, therefore, that ship |
owners must be careful about the kind of |
fog horns with which they equip their YES

The Boston Herald has been making CON
siderable loose talk about continued high
prices occasioned, it is alleged, by the Nc.
Kinley bill. The Boston Journal asked the
Herald to specify the articles of which the
prices were higher on account of the new
tram law. After considerable stunning
about, the Herald produced anecdotes Of
TWO ladies', who had been asked higher
prices, the one for carpeting and the other
for certain articles of apparel, because, as
the clerks selling the articles. explained, the
Mckinley bill had occasioned rise. The
Journal asked for rather more specific re-
ply. and Yesterday the Herald made the fol
lowing statement:
In further response 10 Inquiries as to the in
creased cost OF articles In general use caused by
the Mckinley tariff, we will remark that Messrs.
GAM and Mark, who issue little sheet called
the National Provisioner not In the interest of
either side in politics, but with view to present
ing facts relating TO the market, report an In
which, they say must be paid by the consumer
This does not apply TO the foreign consumer,
who Obtains his articles under the rebate clause
in the tariff The American consumer is denied
the advantage of low prices which are accorded
to the consumer abroad.
Here seems to be one definite instance
where the Mckinley bill may be accounta-
BILE for an increase of pricp,-although an
increase small and inappreciable in the ag-
gregate OF yearly purchases of tinware by
the ordinary family. Protectonists have
expected this slight increase until American
tin plate factories could be established in
number sufficient to bring kown the price by
domestic competition. The fact that the
Herald, when challenged. can produce only
this instance of an increase of price ON ac-
count OF the Mckinley bill is significant of
how little truth there is in the cry which it
raised. The reduction In the price of sugar
would repay twenty times the increase on
tin, considered from the standpoint of family
expenses. But the Herald seems to make a
still more significant admission. 1t has
been preaching that there were no tin plate
manufactures in this country, and that
there never would be any. But here is the
Herald talking as If tin plate were manufac-
tured In this country in quantities, mot only
sufhcientfor our own use. but for export as
well. The Herald unconsciously-a un-
conscious admissions are usually truthful
admits the likelihood that we shall make tin
plate enough for ourselves and our neigh
