Ww NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1875—TRIPLE SHEET. OFFICIAL BARBARITY. “Malachi Connolly Murdered at Blackwell's Island. The Coroner and Jury Visit the Scene of the Tragedy. “TWENTY WITNESSES SECURED. Startling Narrative of a Released Convict. Had it not been for his fellow prisoner Owens’ revela tions It is quite possible the murder of Malachi Con- | nolly at Biackwell’s Island would never have been dis- covered, The day CONNOLLY DIED wens was discharged, his term of imprisonment hav- ing expired. 1t was then {t occurred to him to disclose | ‘the secrets of his prison house, and the way in which | prisoners are treated by irresponsible deputy wardens. Yesterday, about four o'clock, Coroner Croker de. termined to pay a visit to Blackwell’s Island, accom- panied by the jury of inquest, in order to sec the cel | ‘where Connolly died and secure such sources of infor- mation as may be needed at the investigation. The Cor- | ‘ener had with him Dr. Joseph Cushman, and the jury | consisted of J. Cahill, G. Kreutzer, William Sanders, B. | Wrankfeld, L. Brander, J. Geiser, C. Fisher, B. H. | Adams, E. Duffy, all from Third avenue, Landed at Blackwell’s Island, the party proceeded to the Peniten- tiary, where they met Warden Fox, who gave instruc. ns to have ba ‘THR CELL 4m which Connolly died shown to the visitors. Four tiers of cells occupy the interior of the jail building. It was in one of the lower tiers, numbered 400, that poor Connolly breathed his last, It measures, like the rest, six feet nine inches long and three feet five inches wide, The furniture of these cells is of the simplest possible description—a bedstead, a slop bucket, a tin can of water and a single blanket As the jury were peering cnriously into the cell the convicts engaged in sweep- ing up the floors and arranging the tables and tin plates for supper intuitively guessed the purpose of the visit, ‘Ut was astonishing what a number of them knew Con- wolly. As far as could be gathered he was an INOFFENSIVE, HALF-WITTED fellow who would have been much more appropriately placed if in an idiot asylym than ina penitentiary. Ho ‘was disinclined to work. The nature of the boy was en- tirely misunderstood by the keepers, and where they should have extended kindness and compassion they Bubstituted abuse and brutality. In the hands of any fairly intelligent man Connolly might have been en- tirely reclaimed; but ignorant keepers like Geary look ‘upon any eccentric bebavior in a prisoner as something that puts him OUTSIDE THE PALE of human treatment Warden Fox, speaking to the HeRavp reporter, said he was extremely sorry that he | should have been absent from the Island when the eccurrence took place, * Rerorrer—Would it be possible for a prisoner to be unwarrantably abused by some of the deputy keepers witnout your knowledge? Warden Fox—Yes, thero is a possibility of that kind. 1 cannot be everywhere at once, and there are prisoners who, rather than complain, prefer suffering in silence, ‘Where there are so many keepers and prisoners occa- sional instances must arise wherein the keeper will wreak his temper on the convict when he sees the op- portunity for concealment Rerorrer—Cases of this kind, I presume, are very ‘exceptional? Warden Fox—Nothing of the kind ever occurred since 1 came bere. A man of Connolly's peculiarities was sure to be made a butt of by the other prisoners; and where it may be sport to them it Is painful to the victim, THE CARELESS Docrors. As far as the cell is concerned there {i mof. The great and crying disgrace is the doctor’s ments. He certainly should be compelled to visit the cells every morning where cases of illness may exist. It ts alleged that it Connolly had received medical attendance of the right kind he might be alive to-day. The Coroner is bent on probing the case to ita Geptts, and the public demand that it be made a clean and thorongh job. ‘After leaving the Penitentiary the party started over to where a number of convicts were engaged in the erection of a stone building. Some were putting on the stone at the second story elevation, others were drees- Ing it under as! ed, while more were dawdling about a8 if their labors for the day were ended. When Warden Fox and Coroner Croker went in among them owen, the irrepressible ex-prisoner, who told the world the story of his fellow prisoner's fate, jumped in where the jarymen were standing, and in less time than it takes to Yell it, singled out from among the great gang of pris- oners some twenty witnesses of the ill-treatment to which Connolly had been subjected. Friday next, when the examination before the Cor- ener takes place, the following will be produced to prove that Geary and Cowenhoven used unnecessary and brutal violence toward the deceased :—Three kee — Charles Osborne, Michael Kennedy and Tim Skelly and eighteen prisoners. Dr. Cushman took the names, and when it became understood among the outlying convicts that witnesses were being looked for who saw little to com- BROTAL ILL TREATMENT of Connolly a whole battalion offered themselves, not ‘that they cared for Connolly or knew much about him, but the prospect of a trip to the city, with the chance ofescaping, was a powerful temptation. Owens, pale about the lips and fairly overcome with the importance and responsibility of his self-elected office of accuser against Geary and Cowenhoven, jumped about in all directions in quest of evidence to sustain | his charges. “Here,” said he, addressing Coroner Croker, “ia the handle of a spade I just picked up out of the grass. I SAW GEARY MASH CONNOLLY five times with that on the back, head and legs; you eee there is iron on the handle, When he used ‘it on Connolly the whole top of the handle was covered with aron.”” It was handed to Coroner Croker who took it to his ofttee, ‘Now see here,” continued the indefatigable Owens, “4you see that pile of lumber, they used to make Con: nolly take one end of these heavy planks while two men would be sent to the other. They never allowed him any help at one end in removing these planks. They saddied down on him enough work for any two strong men, and Connolly was not strong atall. I was only ‘waiting for the opportanity to expose them, andI did that without any delay.” Owens with @ stick in his hand moved about the neighborhood, and wien his eye fell on anybody he fecognized as having been a witness he pointed him out ‘vehemently to the Coroner as ‘‘ another one who knows what I swore is true.” After arranging for the transmission of the witnesses @own to the Coroners’ Office on Friday the party left the Isiand by way of Fifty-second street. GRARY HELD TO BAL. Patrick Geary, the keeper of the Penitentiary, was day arraigned betore Coroner Croker at the ter's office, and was held to bail in $2,000, in default of which he was locked up. AN EYE-WITNESS ON THR BRUTALITY, ‘The ex-convict Owens, whose testimony has already been published, went belore the Coroner yesterday with another important witness, Jeremiah Calden, living at | No, 308 Monroe street, who had until yesterday been a prisoner in the Penitentiary. He made the following Statement under oath :— I was sent to the Island October 6, 1874, for assault and battery, and was discharged to-day new the de- ceased Michael Connolly while at the Penitentiary. On ‘one occasion I saw the keeper Geary strike him on the back, telling him to go to work. Connolly was on the Ssh batge when he was struck. In view of the above meagre evidence elicited from Calden at the Coroner's inquest a HERALD reporter was went to see Calden, The reporter penetrated the ex- treme ‘east side” and was shown by a police officer into @ back yard and thence up a flight of rickety stairs by @ young man who happened to be near. Here he was eceived by & woman who subsequently turned out to be Calden’s wife. The Haraio man asked for Calden and was shown into an adjoining room. It was hardly Jarge enough to turn round in, being almost totally occupied by a bed, on which was re- alining Jeremiah Calden,’ rojoicing in the FIRST DAY OF HIS LINRRTY for the last year. Caiden has houored the public insti- sutionsof the country with his presence almost un- Femittingly for the last three years, and has something fo say about them. He is a lithe, intelligent man, abont @hirty;three years of age, evidently quick of observation, ‘one who, having scen, can remember. The recumbent form of Calden, in his red shirt, with the dim light of thenext room falling on bim,’ reminded the Henan map of all the pirate stories he had read in his child- The representative of the press asked for a Jight, ‘The woman in the next room immediately brought one.

Rurorter—Did you ever see him struck while there? GEARY AT WORK. Catpex—Yes, I saw Geary strike Mike with a stick a couple of inches round and three feet long. Revorrer—Why did he strike him? CALDEN—Because he couldn't wheel the stuff quick enough off a barge that came up from the city with dirt, Rurorrkn—Was that the only time you saw him struck? CaLDEN—No, I saw bim struck over and over again; I couldn't say how many times I saw him hit, they were ALWAYS AT HIM. Rerorter—But did you see any one else besides Mr. Geary strike him? Cazpur—Yeu, three days after | saw Geary hit him 1 saw Mr. Hardy strike him on the mouth. Rarorren—Why did Mr. Hardy strike him?

Connolly was a into his seemed to envy the man, I believe I saw Mr. Boyle hit him too, If he didn’t hit him I’m sure he did me, Rerorren—Why did Mr. Boyle strike you? CaLpes—He hit me at dinner.

Catpes—Yes, sir; and then Boyle hit me too. Reroxtrer—Then.tell me what you saw of Connolly after the last time he was struck in your presence, Catpex—The last I saw of bin he was clean done, They carried him into the prison and set him on a pile of bricks, what they put @ stove on; he was laid out there on the bricks. Rerorter—Did you see or hear anything more of him after that? Caupks—No; the next thing I heard of him was that he was dead. “JACK, THR SAILOR,” told me that when he was there he got up and sang a song, and then they carried him away and he died. I | spoke to Jack to-day about it before I left, and he says | they've killed him. bs | Reporren—Then, baving spent three years there, you ought to know something about it. CaLpex—TI know this, that Geary swore me away in- nocent; he swore I assaulted him and took his revolver and jumped on his breast and said:—‘You dog, lay down; P'll blow your brains out;” and that was all a | put up job—a blamed lie. Reporrsr—Then you think you know something about that place? CaLpen—Yes, 1 know every turn in the whole con- cern, and if they'd only believe me I'd make the whole gang squeal.

As he was leaving the room Mr. Calden threw himself back on the sheetiess bed to enjoy his new-fledged liberty. WHAT GEARY SAYS FOR HIMSELF. Correction a resolution was passed, which ordered that if any keeper was proven to have struck a prisoner upon Blackwell’s Island, except in self-defence, the the Commissioners for dismissal. Commissioners Bren- nan and Bailey investigated the charges made against Keepers Cowenhoven and Geary in relation to the death of Connolly, and summoned before them a num- ber of keepers, Dr. Linehan and several clerks, The testimony of these witnesses proved that Cowenhoven, Geary and another keeper named Boyle had strack the deceased Connolly. Boyle waa convicted out of his own mouth. . Geary’s testimony was given jo the end to convict seven years old, of middle size, and forbidding expression upon his face. had been gooey in the Penitentiary as a keeper for five years; that on Monday, August 23, he saw a pris- oner strike Connolly and knock .him down; he called Cowenhoven’s attention to the fact, and the latter, in- stead of aiding Connolly, went out and struck him on the shoulders and hands; he afterward kieked Connolly at least tnree times. Geary also said that he had often heard Cowenhoven swear at prisoners. The accused Deputy Warden he hag an acute, ers. The latter officials formally discharged Cowen- hoven, Geary and Boyle from their employ, and deter- mined to send the testimony they had taken to the District Attoracy. The Commissioners also suspended Keeper Pease, and transferred Hall, Raywood and Cor- coran to ontdoor duty. The fact of Keeper Geary arrest has already been announced by the HERALD. Deputy Wardén Cowenhoven has thus far evaded arrest. PROPOSALS REJECTED. THE ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC TELEGRAPH DECLINES CONSOLIDATION WITH WESTERN UNION. A meeting of the directors of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company was held yesterday afternoon, to consider the proposition of consolidation made to them by the managers of the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany. There were present at the meeting Messrs, Syd- ney Dillon, W. J. Lyons and others interested in the transfer. Mr. AB. Chandler acted as secretary. The session was very short, and the princi- it lef{ town as soon as the meeting was over. The details of the first proposi- tion could not be ascertained, but the directors of the Atlantic and Pacific line refused to entertain it for a moment. of seven per cent on the $2,500,000 offered for the line, but was refused, and it may now be considered a settled fact that the Atlantic and Pacifle Telegraph wires will not be swallowed up by the managers of tho Western Union Company. A rumor was started yesterday afternoon that the officers of the National Telegraph Company had been severely hurt by the failure of the Bank of California, but a Csspatch later in the evening contradicted the statement, and says that the affuirs of the National ‘Company are in no way affected by that bank’s failure. A further despatch stated that Mr. A. A. Cohen had been delayed in starting for the East in consequence of the death of Mr. Ralston, but that he would leave immediately, and with full power to carry out the proposition that his organiza tion has made to the stockholders of the Atlantic and quence of the rumors that the Western Union Company would gobble up the rival line, and so have a monopoly of the telegraph wires in the country. As ail the offers 80 far made by the Western Union have been rejected it is not believed that any other will be made until Mr. Cohen arrives, and makes public what he is willing and able to do. ie ONE WHO ADMIRES FAIR PLAY. To tie Evitor or tas Heratp:— You are entitled to the thanks of all who appreciate fair play and an open and above board manner of doing business for the facts laid before the public in your paper of this date concerning the proposed lease or par- chase by the Western Union Telegraph Company of the Atlantic and Telegraph Company, and Mr. Syms’ position in the matter commends him to the public aa @ gentleman who fully understands the duty he owes to the stockholders of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company, whose interests are keeping, ANTI-MONOPOLY, THE SEVENTY-FIRST AT HOME. After a stay of eight days in Rhode Iviand the Seventy- first regiment, N.G.S.N.Y., Colonel commanding, returned to this city yesterday morning from Camp Lippitt on the Stonington steamer, now homesick guardsmen on board, left Stonington, and arrived here yesterday at twenty minutes after nino o'clock A.

Details of the Collision of the Royal Albert and the Mistletoe, THE GRIEF OF VICTORIA. Two Stories as to How the Disas- ter Happened. Portsmouth, August 20, 1875. ‘The tmmunity from accidents which Her Majesty has enjoyed in her various journeys has at last been broken. Shortly after six o’clock on Wednesday evening, the 18th inst., the royal yacht Alberta, having the Queen and fuite on board, came in ‘collision with the yacht Mistletoe, which immediately sank, Three lives were | lost. 1t appears that the Alberta, which was in charge | of Captain his Serene Highness Prince Leiningen, G. ©, B., and Staff Captain Welch, left Cowes at half-past | five o'clock for the Royal Clarence Victualling yard, | Gosport. She had on board Her Majesty and suite, | who wore en route for Balmoral. The day was beau- | tifully fine, and numerous yachts were cruising about | the Solent. When the Alberta was crossing Stokes | Bay a schooner yacht, which afterwards proved to be | the Mistletoe, was observed in close proximity, and | went acrows the bows of the Alberta, which, going at | fall speed, struck her with tremendous force, running right into her nearly amidships; it was with some difll- | culty that she could be got clear of the ill-fated craft, | which went down immediately afterwards; Commander | Fullerton and some of the seamen of the Alberta | jumped overboard and went to the rescue of the unfor- | tunate persons on board the yacht; the mainmast of | the Mistletoe, with the mainsail set, fell, and took down | with it a lady (Miss Ann Peel) and Commander Fullerton; | the former was drowned, and Commander Fullerton, | whose gallant conduct is spoken of in the highest | terms by the eye-witnesses of the sad calamity, had a | narrow escape for his life, The master of the yacht, | Captain Stokes, was picked up in a drowning condition, | aud the owner was also in an exhausted state, The | crew were rescued, but the mate was drowned. Before | hi the Alberta arrived at the Royal Clarence Yard the | master had breathed his last, HER MAJESTY, WHO WAS OVERWHELMED | with grief, evinced the utmost anxiety that every care | and attention should be bestowed upon the sufferers | and that steps should be immediately taken to apprise | the relatives of the melancholy event, The owner of | the yacht was Mr, Edward Stanley Heywood, brother of | Sir Percival Heywood. He left Ryde on Tuesday, the | 17th inst, for acruise, being accompanied by two sis- | ters of his wife, Miss Eleanor Peel and Miss Annie | Peel. The former was saved by Commander Fullerton | and the latter was drowned. On the arrival of the royal yacht at Gosport Her Majesty sent for Admiral Elliot, Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, who, with General Sir Hastings Doyle, commander | South Western District, was in attendance, and gave | the admiral her royal commands with regard to the care | of Mr. Heywood and the survivors, at the same time di- | recting that telegrams should be sent to her during the | night informing her of their condition. The body of the master was removed to Haslar Hospital. The steward, who had his arm broken, was also removed to Haslar. | on board the Duke of Wellington, Mr. Heywood was taken to the residence of Admiral Elliot. The Elfin, | tender to the royal yacht, was despatched to Ryde for | Mrs, Heywood, and returned with that lady. The Alberta lost her bowsprit and sustained consider- able damage to her stem, a portion ot which was carried away. The Mistletoe was 120 tons burden and had re- | cently undergone a thorough overhaul, It is believed | that the mainmast in falling must have struck the master, as he had sustained a terrible blow on the side of his head, and also another on his shoulder. Her Majesty was greatly agitated by sthe fatal occur- rence, and, since it happened, sne has been extremely solicitious about those who were hurt but were rescued | from death, The inquest to discover the cause of the collision was begun here, on Thursday, The most important testimony was taken | yesterday. I send you those statements upon which the most reliance is tobe placed. I have not time to make comments, as I must be hasty to catch the mail. THE MISTLETOR SIDE OF THE STORY. | Mr. Edward Stanley Heywood, the owner of the Mis- | fietos, tentited that he resided at Light Oaks, Manches- | ter. e Was at present stopping at Ryde, with his fam- | ily. He had been cruising in the Channel for the last fortnight. On Wednesday he was on board his yacht, accompanied by two. of his wife's sisters, They went round the Nab Light and sailed trom Bembridge Point to Stokes’ Bay. They then tacked about to go for Ryde, They were all down ‘at tea when the steward said the royal yacht was coming. It was half-past five. They | came on deck, and he looked through his glass and saw | the Royal ensign flying. They pursued their course | steadily, The Alberta came down and got nearer to them than he liked. They did not alter their course in | anywise until the moment when a collision became in- | evitable, At that instant the captain put the helm hard | down, Much about the same moment the Alberta star- | boarded her helm. His thought at the moment was | that the man at the helm had misunderstood his orders | And starboarded his helm instead of porting. That was | | his impression. If the -helm of the Alberta had been ported he thought a coilision might have been Baved, but perhaps their Jibboom would have been car- | | ried off. From what bad ‘been said in the newspapers, | It was suggested that they had attempted to get close | to the Queen. He issued no order to that effect. He | should have thought it | A GREAT IMPERTINENCE TO DO 80; | in dipping the flag they wished to pay the ‘asual com- pliment to Her Majesty; the apprehension of the man | who stated that orders to that effect had been issued | Was incorrect; directly after they struck a great deal of | rigging fell over the Albert's bows, partly their own and partly belonging to the Alberta, making @ sort of | ladder, up which several of their'men climbed; Miss Eleanor Peel was pulled up from the Alberta; Miss Annie Peel was being priled up; he was below her and | helped her; she had hold of the hand of an officer of | the Alberta, and after that he saw no more of her; | very soon alter that the Mistletoe sank and he went | down with her; when he came to the surface he saw twoor three ropes m the water; he got hold of one | and was pulled into a boat, by whom he knew not; he was | taken-on board the Alberta, taken into the cabin below, stripped of his clothes, and put in warm blankets, and most kindly attended by the doctor of the Queen’s | yacht, When they came into the harbor he was put into cab and carried to Admiralty House, From his con- dition at the time he could not say anything about the master; he did not see him; he had never known ; the captain otherwise than a sober man; he was a re- | Spectable man; he had had him three: years; but he | was a well-known and able man; he had not been well for some time; they were going about three knots, as the wind had lulled; he was very mach exhausted; if the | Alberta had stopped and the water had not come in they would probably have all been saved, By a Juror—A steamer coming from Ryde would | have had plenty of room to pass; they were nearer | Stoke’s Bay than Ryde; the thought crossed his mind | that, as the Alberta was so close, it would have been | more courteous to pnt the yacht’s head to the wind; | but he ultimately agreed that ‘it was better to adhere to the rule of the road at sea, and he gave no order on the | subject, A BRAVE FELLOW, | George Hiscock, the steward, who had his arm band. aged in a sling, deposed to the general circumstances of | the collision; ‘perceiving the Alberta at a distance, he called the attention of the owner and the guests to the fact; they were getting their tea at the time; when the | Alberta came near he went aft, and the two ladies were there also; she was instantaneously struck, and he got up the port bows of the steamer by means of the fallen rigging; he caught hold of Miss Eleanor | Peel’s arm, and with the assistance of the mate | and others got her on board; he then caught hold of | Miss Ann Peel’s hand, and part of her body was brought | over the rails of the Alberta; the rigking then slipped away and carried his arm over the rail, his arm being | eg he beid on until his arm was broken, and he 6a | ” ‘ey GoD, MY GoD, 1 MUST LEP you ao!” and she and the mate went below; a man in the water | shouted to Miss Peel to jump into a boat, but she could not do that, as she was entangled in the rigging; that was the last ime he saw anything of either of them; he slipped over the forecastle, and, looking over side, saw Mr. Heywood in the water on the starboard bend rope was thrown to him and he was dragged on ard, This testimony gives but one side of the case; the other is exposed by the following evidence of Captain | David Welch, a staif captain in the Royal Nav THE ROYAL ALBRRT STORY, He said:—He resided at Virginia Water; he was cap- tain of the Alberta, royal yacht; Her Majesty left Os- borne for gcotland at half past hve on Wednesday Inst; Captain, th Prince Leiningen and Commander Fuller: | ton were on board; every possible lookout is kept at all times on board, but more especially when Her Majesty is present, because the speed is greater; he was bridge at the time of the collision, Superintending the navigation ; on their way to Clarence- | yard three yachts approached very close indeed; he wished the Coroner to understand that when a ship Was going at A great speed events occurred in seconds, and not in minutes; as far as the centre of the middie | shoal they were pretty clear; he then saw a yawl com- | ing up from leeward, apparently across their bows, and he mado the remark w Captain Fullerton, WHAT BAD MANNERS THRSK PROPLE MAD | in attempting t cross the bows of the yacht, with Her Majesty on board; he waa then’ on the eve of putting his helm to starboard to clear this vessel, when suddenly she bore up and ran in « parallel line with them, and he ed her close tw within five-and-twenty yards; 0 BoOwET passed her than he observed a cutter doing tho very #amo thing—standing across his bows; | on the again he ‘was about to put the helm to | starboard to go under her stern, when she did the same thing as the other vessel, and ran ip ® parallel line with them. He then sighted a schooner suddenly, it is stated, her helm was altered, and she | while the crew were provided with comforable quarters | of Ryde, He was on the port side of the bridge, He Temained there watching her, and again made up his nd to pass under her stern, when the schooner ke} away, and ran very nearly, but not Ay ina with them. As he took it for granted that this vessel would remain on the course she was going, and havin, more yachts to look after on the starboard bow, he went over to the starboard side of the bridge, He not been there half a minute when he suddenly saw ——. He wished to hero that in crossing the bridge the foremost funnel came between him and the schooner; while standing there he suddenly saw the end of her jibboom on the other side of the funnel; at the same moment one of | the quartermasters came to him, touched him on the shoulder, and “The yacht’s put her helm down;” he ripen: 4 ordered the helm to be put hard a star- board, and with Prince Leiningen, who was standing by him at the time, rushed to the telegraph; he was before him and put the telegraph to stop as soon as possible; he immediately moved the telegraph to slow or halt ‘speed astern, fe could not quite remember which, but it would be A MORAL IMPOSSIBILITY TO STOP the engine dead at such a rate of 8] as to ep an ex- | press train; he was obliged, according to the rule of the road atsea, to put his helm a starboard to clear @ yessel under sail—that is, a vessel standing across as she was; when he saw the schooner her sails were shaking in the wind; had he or they who commanded | the vessel, when they formed the idea of crossing their bows, kept the sails full they would most certainly have cleared her; he would also remark that had hé tb helm aport, as it is sup) he should have been disobeying the rules observed in | meeting sailing vessels, and it was his opinion that he would have gone clear with the vessel; they were going at the rate of fifteen knots, | about seventeen statute miles; ho had been in com- | mand of Alberta eleven years and sixteen and a | half in the Fairy; they were sailing at about the sam | rate of speed as was usual when the Queen was on | board, and it must be stated that they were running to | catch 'a.special train; he wished to say that he did not | consider thare was any more, if as much, danger from his running ata high speed as if he were going half, for the simple reason that he was used to run at great | speed and he felt the vessel more under his command; | he was, as a matter of course, at times sorely pr to escape from yachts that no doubt FROM AN EXCKSS OF LOYALTY wished to pass too close to the Sovereign; his opinion was that the Misletoe was going about four or five knots no accident had ever happened before to Her Majesty’ yacht; when he saw the vessel alter her course he imag- ined that she was going to pursue the same course as the other yachts then running parallel with them; the helm ‘was starboarded at once; there was no blame attached to any one; if any one was to blame it was himself; he alone was responsible; the helm was put at starboard about eighty yards off; at this time the vessel had not come up to the wind and was going ahead with her sails full; he believed that from the evidence he would be able to bring it would be proved that there was no one atthe helm of the Misletoo; he imagined that when the danger was seen they all rap from the helm; he was on the watch, and he never relaxed his outlook for a moment; the quartermaster was on tho | bridge with him, and steered according to his direction; is. responsibilities were too great to induce him to trust to others at sea; they had always a lookout day and night; what he wanted to be understood was that he did not want any one to refer the ships to him, be- cause he was himself the watch; at sea he would be off the bridge, and a watch would be kept day and night; | during the time Her Majesty is on board the ship is | steered by two quartermasters, first class petty officers, Dut at sea the quartermasters have regular watches, The lea was adjourned unt Monday, Sep- | tember HARD MONEY MEN.
