Excerpt from A Treatise on the Subject of Collisions Between Warships and Merchant Vessels: According to Humble Contribution as Unification of the Laws on the Subject Among the Maritime Nations of the World In the case of collision between a warship and a merchant vessel, the International Mari time Committee hopes the State to which the warship belongs will pay the damages according to the general principle of the Maritime Law. Although the proposal may seem somewhat audacious, practically meaning, as it did, changing the law of the whole maritime world on the subject, it was not, nevertheless, advanced without prepara tion. Since the collision, in the year 1892, between the Imperial Japanese cruiser Chishima and a P. 8: O. Steamer, Ravenna, in which the former sank with more than seventy officers and seamen, the author devoted special attention to this particular subject. He made a study of that case, in his capacity of a legal adviser to the Japanese Admiralty, and he has since examined many similar cases which have come before the European courts. His attention was then directed to a case of converse circumstances. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
