TAKING TESTIMONY ON
 LOSS OF BARGES.

 Start Out from New Haven.

Inspectors Withey and Stewart have completed the collection of afhdavits which they were seeking in their in vestigation of the loss of four barges by tug Pliny Fisk last Saturday morn ing, when they broke away from the tug near Bartlett's reef. Masters of tugs which came to New London from New Haven Friday, starting at the same time as the Fisk. were examined by the inspectors In regard to weather condition.
 Michael Garrett, mate of the Fisk, reported to the inspectors Tuesday afternoon as is required of him as a licensed officer Mate Garrett substan- tiates the statement of Capt. Edward A. Gilligan regarding the weather con- ditions and says that at no time in several hours that the tug was pulling against a flood tide were all the barges in tow visible. The weather was too thick to enable the men in the pilot house to see the fagstaR on the tug at times.
 All of the tugboat captains whom the inspectors have interviewed agree that the weather was fit for the tugs to leave New Haven and that no storm signals were displayed there. The statements of the witnesses dis agree only in describing the velocity of the wind, some oRining that it was a. fresh breeze and others that 1t was a light wind.
 Captain Gilligan has amended his statement regarding the aggregate of cargeeS of the lost barges, which he previously described as amounting to 5000 tons of coal. There were 4,629 tons of coal in the four huIls.
 Besides the affldavits of Captain Rogers of tug Minnie, who went into the sound to look for the drifting barges and was forced back by wind and sea, and Captain Halyburton of the Aries, previously taken, Captains Green of the Vigilant and Smith of the Battler have deposed te the in- spsctors.
