No LOOKOUT IN THE Bow.-Thc T..
s. local board of steamboat inspectors
have reported that the steamer John h.
Tvcert on the route from Baltimore 10
this city and Washington carried pas
scngers without having q lookoutman
in the bow of the vessel. The com
plant was made to the inspectors by
officers of the steamer who were inter,
rosated by the inspectors, and required
under their oaths and licenses from the
United States to answer. They told the
inspectors that the Tygert had been
running without lookoutman since
August, and they were afraid she would
be run down by or run into some vessel
at night. The neglect was violation
of Rule 10. based on Section 441l OF the
United States Revised Statutes, and the
penalty is 500.
