ERROR CHARGED IN
5. S. PRINCESS SOFIA |
■1 FINDINGS
< Seattle Daily Times)
1 Charging that U. S. Commission- !
er A. C. Bowman, who heard and I
.took the evidence in the Princess !
Sophia case, failed to follow the I
rules laid down by the court, and j
in his recent findings of fact, did
not reach his conclusions as fixed
by statute, attorneys for the Cana
dian Pacific Railway Co., argued I
their exceptions to the report.
Federal Judge Jeremiah Neterer
heard the arguments and took the
natter under advisement.
LOST AT SEA
The Princess Sophia was lost in ,
Alaskan waters October 25, 1918. On j.
February 28, 1919. the heirs of those
lost at sea started suit against the
company under the statutes of Al- 1
aska, which limits liability for a !
death of an adult at $10,000 and for j
a child to $5,000.
In reaching the damages, it was '
argued, the commissioner failed to
follow the Alaska statute which
provides the measure of dam
ages must be based upon earning
capacity, prospective life, ability to 1
save and accumulate money and |
other matters which would give the
court an idea of what a person i
would have been worth if life had
lot been lost.
