LIBEL FILED AGAINST
BRAZILIAN STEAMER

Norfolk, Va, April 14.-That two
of the sea valves of the Brazilian
steamer Guajara were found to be
open, and that a hole had in some
manner been knocked in the main In
lection pipe of the vessel. as IL 1t had
received a blow from some blunt in
strument, are allegations of the libel
liant in the libel filed against the Qua
lara by the first officer OF the Ameri-
ca steamer Sixaola, in the United
States Court late yesterday afternoon.
The libellant alleges that as soon as
the valves were closed and the hole in
the pipe was patched up, there was
no difficulty in pumping the water out
of the vessel.
The libel was filed by Joseph Ridge
way, chief officer of the Sixaola,
against the Guajara, her cargo and
freight money. claiming salvage in the
sum of at least $4,000. The value
of the Guajara is alleged to be s200.-
600, while her cargo and freight
money are placed by the libellant at
Flew Distress Signal.
The libel sets forth that the Six
aola. bound from New York for
Santiago and other gulf and Caribbean
ports. encountered the Guajara April
s, flying signals of distress. The mas
ter of the Guatara reported his vessel
leaking badly, 1t is alleged. but stated
that he did not desire to leave the
ship. The Sixaola stood by during the
afternoon and night OF March on &C
count OF unfavorab weather condt.
tons, and Sunday morning, 1t 10 al
legged, members of the crew OF ehe
Sixaola were sent aboard the Guatara
