must pay sl.l34.525 for sinking the
Greek steamer Nina last summer

sold in Norfolk August T. according
to a ruling of Judge Edmund Wad-
dill. OF the United States district court
The Attualtta collided with the Nina
OFF Gibraltar late last summer and
the Nina was sunk. although no lives
were lost The Attualita was at
tached upon her arrival in Hampton
Roads en- route to Baltimore.
The Italian government took the
stand that the ship was without the
jurisdiction of the civil courts of the
United States because she had been
taken over by the royal government
Judge Waddill concurred in the opin-
ION, The court of appeals ruled that
the case was amenable to civil law
The case was heard again by Judge
Waddill on its merits and the decision
that the italian ship was wholly al
fault was rendered. j. Westmore Will
cox was named commissioner to as
sess damages.
