A cable message received from Sydney last night- states that the Court of Inquiry into the loss of the barque Fifeshire at- the' Gilbert Islands found that the wreck had been caused by the gross negligence and reckless navigation of the master, John Nichol, in taking tlio ship into a position he knew" to he dangerous. The Court also found that Stephen Rowe, first officer of the Fife-shire, was a man who ought not to be permitted to have charge of a ship owing to his drunken habits, and called upon both to show cause why their certificates should not be cancelled. The Fifeshire was insured for £6ooo'.
