Thes.s. Thomas Russel sailed for Napier The'Waihora will not arrive here from South before Monday. The schooner Gisoorne will leave about Saturday for the coast and Auckland with a general cargo of stores. The Thomas Bussell made a remarkably ouick passage from Auckland, doing the journey in thirty-six hours. She looks very imart after her recent overhaul and cleaning up. The boat left for Napier to-day, whence she will return for a load of stock for AuckItOde In connection with the stabbing case on board the H. J. Libby, the following is the log entry “On October Ist, heard a fight on deck, on the quarter-deck; ran on deck and found Patrick McCarthy clenched and immediately separated them. McCarthy ran for’ard swearing that he would kill the mate. I went into my cabin, got on my shoes, and went for’ard to try to quiet him. Found him in the forcastle with a knife in his hand; ordered him on deck. He said, ‘if you want me come in after me.’ I then told the second mate to go in and take him out, I following myself. Immediately McCarty made a rush at me and stabbed me through the left side, inflicting a serious wound. I seized him drew the knife from the wound in my side, and had him put in irons and locked in the lazarette. He still used the most Violent language, swearing that he would break loose and kill both me and the mate, so fearing he might succeed in getting loose, I had him chained down with his hands behind him.” This statement is signed by the captain, the chief officer, second officer, and the whole of the crew with the exception of McCarty. McCarty complains of being struck with a belaying-pin by the mate while he was at the wheel. Also that the assault on the master was brought about as a matter of self-defence, McCarty alleging that the master and mate were attacking him with belayingpins, When McCarty was brought ashore from the vessel on Saturday his emaciated and physically helpless state was so great that he had to be carried to the police office. He was quite unable to walk, and he complained loudly of the manner in which he had been chained up and his limbs lashed together for the eighteen days which have elapsed since the assault.
