its -ifi-man crew. The cargo
aboard the States Steamship Co.
vessel was lost.
The decision was by U.S. Dist.
Judge Dave ling of Phoenix.
Ariz. Earlier he had held that
the steamship company was lia
ble for the losses because the
ship was not seaworthy. The loss
es were paid off by the two com
panies who insured the cargo.
Then they sued to recover the
money.
Judge Ling awarded $379,185
plus 6 per cent in interest from
the day of the sinking to the At-
Mutual Cn Ho nrHitrpri
! $479,083 plus interest paid to the
National nre insurance to.
The estates of the men who died
with the ship were settled out of
court.
States Steamship now has lost
nearly three million dollars as
result of the sinking.
Judge Ling was assigned to the
federal district court here to try
the case.
