Two of the witnesses from the Hurunui heard shouts which, they admitted, might have been cries for help ; but one-Of these thought they were the shouts of men hauling on a rope; the other (the man at the wheel)

heard them “singing out fearfully.” It was uncon tested that no llarc-up light or other recognised signals of distress were burnt on board the baiquo. They had no gun, nor any rockets. The evidence being concluded, the following charges were bJ ’ counsel for the Board of Trade ;-“l. That the loss of the Pater and that of the lives of seven of noi crew were caused by the fault of the master of the Hurunui in allowing his vessel to proceed at too rapiu a ratejeonsidering the lookout kept on board ms vessel, or in not having a good and sufficient kept on board bis vessel having regard to the s P ec which she was proceeding. 2.
