MOTION FOR NEW
TRIAL OVERRULED

Judge Sheppard in the United States
district court for the northern district
Of Florida, yesterday ovverruled a
motion for a new trial brought by
the North British Mercantile Insur-
ance Company in its case against H..
Bars & Co.
1t appears Bars & Co. had an m
surance policy on a steamer, the
Gamen, which was plying from a
European to a gulf port. a German
submarine intercepted the voyage by
blowing 1t up. Bars & Co. proceeded
to put the policy into operation. The
insurance company held that the ship
was destroyed in going upon another
voyage, not the one for which 1t was
insured, and it was not liable
Judge Sheppard ruled the insurance
company did not have legal founda-
tion for its claim. The amount involved
is $4,000 with interest, which will
bring the amount to about $4,000.
