Hearing Before British Admiralty Court
The Companies Speed.

London, Aug. lin the admiralty
court to-day testimony was taken in
the matter of the sinking of the bark
Embleton by the Cunarder Campania
during a fog, July q, which resulted in
the drowning Of eleven members of the
Embleton's crew of eighteen men. Sur
vivors of the Embleton's crew testified
that they were making two knots,
sounding the foghorn continuously. The
defendants witnesses testified that the
Campania was making nine to ten
knots. These witnesses complained
that the Embleton had failed to take
proper precautions. Justice Barnes,
asking what the defense would be,
said: But what about your speed?
You plead nine or ten knots and you
cannot see much more than ships
length. Is 1t to be justified?" The
Cunards' counsel said he preferred not
to commit himself at this stage of the
case The hearing was then adjourned.
