GREYCLIFFE DISASTER

CLAIM FOR £30,000 RESUMED. The hearing of the action brought by Sydney Ferries, Ltd., against the Union Steam Ship Company, in which £3OOOO 'is claimed for the loss of the steamer Greyeliffe in November, 1927, will be resumed in Sydney on October 22. The case was mentioned first in April last year, when an application by the Union Company was granted authorisin’ a commission to take expert evidence in England, particularly on the theory of interaction between vessels under way. This evidence, together with the results of tests made in tanks by shipping experts and a motion picture film, reached Australia several weeks ago. It is expected that the action will determine legal responsibility for the collision between the Tahiti and the Greyeliffe and will have an important bearin’ on personal claims that have been made alternatively against the two companies and have not been proceeded with pending the decision of the Admiralty Court.
