FINE QUESTION Of
LAW WAS PROMPT TED
in CASE OF A LIBEL
ATTORNEYS WERE PREPARED
TO BRING OUT INTERESTING
CONTENTION WHEN CABLE
MESSAGE WAS RECEIVED.

An interesting question would have
been proposed in the case of the Ital-
ian steamship Avanguardia yesterday
had not a cablegram arrived, 4 stop
ping the proceedings and thus the
fine point has been left unsettled. Mr..
Loftin, appearing for the Italian con-
sui, and really representing the Ital-
ian government in the case of the
steamer named, was preparing to
bring the new point up for decision.
About the time the proceedings had
been carried to a point where it was
necessary for another move on the
part of the steamship, q cablegram
arrived, which, in substance, notified
the charterers of the Avanguardia,
Rosasco Brothers, that the firm would
be reimbursed for whatever losses
they had sustained by reason of the
government requisitioning the ship
after the latter had reached here,
preparatory to engaging in the six
months charter.
Hearing upon the question of the
libel claim which had been filed
against the steamer was conducted
yesterday. The vessel had been held
in port for more than a week after
the claim of $15O,O00 had been made
against the steamer, and at the hear
ing it was proposed that the question
Of whether or not the federal courts
could take into custody and hold
foreign vessel in the service of
foreign government, would be thresh-
ed out. The courts have long ago held
that no claim could be made against
a foreign naval vessel in cases like
that filed against the Italian steamer
figuring in this case. The vessel, it
would have been shown, had been re-
Questioned, after arriving here by
foreign government, Italy, and or
dered to go to Galveston to load
cargo of wheat for the Italian gov
eminent, thereby becoming really
foreign vessel in the service of for
eign government. A decision on this
point would have been one in which
many would have been interested.
The steamer sailed yesterday aft
ernoon at a o'clock for Galveston to
load cargo of wheat.
