MY REOPEN THE
New Move Aims to Let Americans
Into the British Courts to
Secure Damages.
NEW YOUK, July 18.—A new move
was made yesterday In the litigation
arising out of the Titanic disaster.
If it is successful many 'claimants
who under a recent ruling of the
Uunited States Supreme Court could
recover for distribution among them
only the sum of $96,000, may resort
to the British courts, in which the
amount for distribution is reckoned
at about $3,000,000. In order that
resort to the British courts might
be taken without prejudice to their
status in the United States courts,
claimants to the amoun of1 $18,000,
000 appeared yesterday before Judge
Hand in the federal district court,
through George W. Betts and Pierre
H. Brown, and asked that the in
junction issued against bridging dam
age suits in any other but the fed
eral district court should be modified,
so that action might be taken in the
British courts.
Nbrman B. Beecher and Charles C.
Burlingham appeared for the White
Star Line, the owners of the Titanic,
in opposition to the application, and
Judge Hand admitted that he was
embarrassed by the course taken by
the claimants. Although the orig
inal modification to the injunction
permits the institution of damage
suits in the state courts, it was the
Circuit Court of Appeals and not the
Federal District Court, which grant
ed it. So Judge Hand thuught that
the motion should have ben made in
the higher tribunal. He asked for
briefs and reserved decision.
COMMITTED GHE
Against Young Native Girl On Akta
Island—Attorney Ray Goes
West to Defend Them.
Senator L. V. Ray, of Seward, left
on the last Dirigo for Unalasku to
defend A. C. Goss and C. C. Sellers,
two traders of Akta Island, who are
charged with rape upon a young na
tive girl. Attorney Ray requested
the privilege of going west on the
cutter McCulloch but Judge Brown
refused to grant it, because the gov
ernment had named an attorney to
make the trip and defend all per
sons charged with crime and the
quarters on the cutter were all tak
en up, so that if each individual
Charged with an offense were to have
separate attorneys the cutters could
not accomodate them.
. No details of the supposed crime
have been received at the marshal’s
Office. Both men are out on bail at
t'nalaska.
