Syllabus
<p>1. Collision—Steamer and Schooner Crossing—Inefficient Lookout.</p> <p>A collision occurred at sea in tlie niglit between a steamer and a schooner on crossing courses. The night was clear, and the wind light, but it was shown that the schooner had steerageway, and that her lights were burning, and in proper position. While the evidence was conflicting as to her course, it gave no reasonable support to the contention of the steamer that she was on such a course that her lights could not be seen in time to have prevented the collision, although the steamer’s lookout and three other members of her crew testified they were on the watch, and did not see the lights until immediately before the collision. Eeld that, under such evidence, the steamer must be held in fault.</p>
