ShipeHuers in the United Statcs
have been asked by the department eff
coinmercd%and llapr 't3 submit views
as to the need of modifying the inter.
natlonal rules for preventing collisions
ut sea. says the Washington core
~spordent of the New York Tribune.
The letter OF inquiry has gone out
from the department on account of 4

are amendments to the rules which

The proposed British amendments
specify particularly the lantern signals
of trawlers, to make them distinct from
vessels fishing with lines or nets.
When engaged in TRAVELLING, by which
is meant the dragging of an apparatus

There's not one man in a thousand
