Présentation de l'éditeur :
In the present Edition Chapters III., IV., and V. of the second edition have been sub-divided; the cases upon Practice are collected in Chapter XII.; those upon Costs follow in Chapter XIII. Additional matter representing the decisions of the past five years has been embodied, mainly in Chapters XII. and XIV. The history of the rule as to division of loss has been removed from its former place in the text to the foot (N ote 1) of Chapter VI. To the Appendix have been added the Regulations approved by the representatives of the maritime nations at the Conference held at Washington in 1889 1890. It is anticipated that this Code will, possibly with some modifications, supersede the Regulations (of 1884) now in force. But some time must elapse before the change in the law is effected, and it has been thought best not to further delay the publication of the present edition.

Présentation de l'éditeur :
There is little cliaiige in the form of the present edition ;it has, without an increase in its size, been brought up to date by the inclusion of recent cases, and in a few places the text has been remodelled. Extracts from tlie Merchant Shipping A ct, 18!)4, have been omitted, for it is found in practice that mere extracts from a statute of this character are apt rather to mislead than to assist. The draft International Convention as to Collisions is inserted as indicative of probable changes in the future in English law, which will, however, have to be incorporated in a statute to become binding on the Courts. E. S. R. H. M. R. A jnil, 1910.
