Norfolk. Va, December 1s.-That the
United States naval collier Sterling
December with the steamer Dorothy.
and that the license of Captain u. V.
w. Keen, master of the collier, should
be suspended for three months, was
the finding to-day of local steamboat
inspectors who investigated the COLI
sion.
The Dorothy, her master. Captain
Timms. and her mate. who was navi-
eating her, were eNonerated of respon-
sbility, the inspectors holding that
under the rules 1t was the duty OF the
collier to keep out OF the Dorothy's
way.
The excellent record OF Captain Keen
was taken into consideration, and his
sentence was made as light as 1t was
thought proper.
Captain Keen commanded the supply
ship Zafiro. which was bought at Hong
kong and went into Manila with Dow
eys fleet, under Are Of Spanish guns
Although only about twenty-nine years
old, Captain Keen is the Oldest master
OF United States naval collier in
