the knocking overboard and death of Seaman Plunkett ol: se Kumaxa between South Africa and New- Zealand delivered its judgment this morning It considered that in all probability the deceased would have been alive to-day had he not-been called away from his post as look-out man No man on look-out duty should be colled off as the safety of all on board might depend on him The Court criticised the non-equipment of the Holmes light and agreed with the Marine Superintendent of Auckland that this light was compulsory (not optional ns claimed by the master) on such vessels as the Kumars On no account ought an officer to leave tho bridge unless relieved and the Court could not mark too strongly its displeasure at such conduct Surprise was expressed that the Captain of the Kumara did not keep a night order book The- Court blamed the Captain foj not lrping the Hd light in a proper condition for not at once calling all funds on deck at the time of the accident for allowing one officer to leave the bridge without calling another for ever permitting the look-out man to be called from his duty for not keeping a night order book for not keeping at least a handy boat ready for emergency for not having boat stations and for not luving boat and fire drill The Chief Officer was blamed for carelessness in respect to the Holmes light and the Second Officer was censured for leaving the bridge to set sail without calling and consulting tlia Captain and was considered imprudent for setting sail at night and1 obstructing the view from the bridge While the Court admitted that everything waa dnnB that could he done after the accident to save the deceased's life it considered that had the discipline on board skid the attention to small but important duties been as they ought the man would not have fallen overboard Tho Captain was ordered to pay half the cost of the inquiry and the First and Second Officers one-fourth eabh EduratlonEL CHRIST- 1 GHUROH rnEBK BEOnra MAY as Mr 4 Bnnm
