There are nineteen indian schools

THE DECISION OF JUDGE spEER
What He Had to Say In Suit Against
the Tug Inca.

The Savannah News Of yesterday, in
reporting the case of the owners of
the bark Ingersoll VS.. the owners OF
the tug Inca, of this city, says:
In the United States court yeester-
day Judge speer handed down a decis.
ion awarding damages to the bark
Ingersoll against the steam tug Inca.
The case has been before the court
fer two days.
The libellants claimed that the tug
towed them on the rocks of che satil.
la river and instead of waiting until
high tide TO float the vessel, attempted
to wrench ii off the rocks.
This produced a grinding effect and
tore away tn ebottom Of the vessel SC
that when it was finally foated ii
sank Immediately. Suit for damages
was brought and the court decided
in favor of che libellants. In conelud
/ ing his opinion Judge Speer said;
"An attentive con liberation of the
evidence satisfies the court that not
withstanding The irreconsible conflicts
in the evidence, the testimony Of the
witness fer the libellant is entitled t.
credence. Cant Christopher Edwards
appeared and testified orally ana
seemed 10 be telling the truth
The testimony OF the master of the
vessel seems incredible as to ma
terial matter He testified that no
body On the bark sung out, or gave
any call to him for help during all
the time the bark was fast In view
Of the imminent peril OF the bark,
the fact that it was aground for nearly
a haly hour, the contradictions by
the libellants and the utter improb
ability Of this statement, it is wholly
{disregarded by the court and throws
grave doubt on all the testimony OF
Floyd
III Is alleged IN she respoaslalltle
answer for what reason in law the
court cannot divine, that the witness
is a negro. He does not appear to be
negro. But ii this was important
no witness testified that he was ne.
gro.
on the other nand the cook OF
the bark testified that the master OF
the tug was himslef negro. lie is
as little like a negro as Cape Chris
topher. Il appears then that 50 fm
as the race que tian is involved the
lcvidence does not preponderate either
for the libellant or respondent.
"a decree will be ordered for the
libellant for the fun value of the
ngersoll less the amount for which
it sold together with the freight
charges lost,"
