TO PAY NO SALVAGE.
The Government without ResponsI-
biIity in the LennOx Case.

It has been determined that the Govern
ment Will not be required to pay salvage
on the disabled transport Lennox, which
broke her propeller shaft recently while
en- route TO san Francisco.
The LennoX has been a chartered trans
port and the Governments contract with
her owners provides that as soon as she
becomes disabled the Governments re
sDonsibiity as well as the per diem for
her use shall cease.
In consequence the Saqua, which picked
her up AT sea and brought her into port
at San Francisco will have to look 10 her
owners for payment. While the tug SIo-
cum was sent out for the LeunOx their
hrst purpose was 20 rescue the passen-
gers aboard and recover Government
property.
