The PoToMAC Nor TO Blanca
decree was signed yesterday by Judge
Morris in the United States District
Court in Baltimore Diminishing the suit
against the steamer Potomac, of the
Weems Line, for the sinking of the
schooner Three Brothers and the drown
ing of Thomas Hart, the schooner's
captain and owner. The steamer and
the schooner collided near Seven-Foot
Knoll on August 81. Claims were
made against the Weems' Steamboat
Co. for $4,000 damages for the death
of Capt. Hart, 81, 800 for the loss of the
schooner and $245 for the loss of the
personal effects of schooner's crew.
The cases were tried before Judge Nor
ris, who decided that the collision was
caused entirely by the fault and mis-
management of those in charge of the
schooner, and in no degree by the
fault and mismanagement of those in
charge Of the steamer. Beverly w.
Mister appeared for Captain Harris
family and John II. Thomas and George
Weems Williams for the owners of the
steamer.
