FIND ERRORS IN The
COURTS DECISION IN
OHIO RIVER CASE
snccial To The IntclliGencer:

Spccial To The IntclliEencer:
RICHMOND Va, Oct. 7.--FSdcral ap-
peal in an opinion today modified the
verdict Of the district court at Parkers-
burg w. Va. in case appealed by the
Reliable Towing Company. The case
grew out Of a mishap that bcfell three
bargrs lnwcd with ties which II agreed
;n tow for the Little Kanawha LoG Il
Tic Company from Harkersburg TO Nc
Kcceporl. 1t appears that two or the
harrcs were swept away by frcshct
while moorcd temporarily at Sisters
willie. and that ono Of then: was prac-
liCally total loss. The third while
still at Parl;rrshurE WAS caught later in
the !cr movement and became n total
loss. The Appellate court held that the
master Of Iowboat "Old Reliable" did
not use duo clrc in fastening the barGcs
at S:strrSvillc. and was therefore re-
<pons;hIc for what became of them, but
that neither he nor his company could
be- hold responsible" for the loss of the
third barge. because of these views 1t
was held that there was error in the
allowance Of damages by the lower
court.
