GREYCLIFFE DISASTER
(Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.). SYDNEY, Jan. I. The Judicial liuiqiry into the Grey-ciitfe-Taiiiti collision was continued today. Addressing the Court, .Air Manning, counsel for Sydney Ferries. Ltd., criticised certain of the Tahiti witnesses and the way they gave evidence, declaring that they came into the Court with a false story. He then submitted that, notwithstanding statements to tbe contrary. Pilot Carson had not only intended to pass the Groyeliffc, hut intended to pass her in what ho himself realised was in dangerous proximity; and the evidence tended to show that the whole of his navigation of the Tahiti was based on the supposition that the master of the Greycliffe had his eves glued on the Tahiti all the time.
