Bulcs and regulation! for the govornmont of pilots nuvlgatlng seas, gn\d, lakes, buoys, sounds, or rlverp, except rivers Mowing Into the Gull of Mexico, und.tliclr tributaries. Revised mat] adopted by the Board of Super¬ vising Inspectors Juno 10,1871,as authorized by act of Congress "to provide lor tlio.pettor security ol lllu on board ol vessels pjopellod In whole or In part by steam, and jfor other purposes," approved February 80; 1871, to tako effect January 1, 1872. (Amended Januury, 1875,1881, and 1882.) j Rule.I. When steamers are approaching ' each other "head and head," oi nearly so, It shall be the duty of each steami-i to pass to tho right, oi poit side of the other; and the pilot of cither steamer may be first In de- termlnlnglo piiisue iIiIm oourso, and there¬ upon shall give, as a "Ignal of his luluiitTon, one short and dUlliict bhiftt of lift" steaiii whistle, which tlie pilot nf iho other steamer , ihall answer promptly by a similar blilstof Ills steam whittle, nnd thereupon suoh steamers shall past to the right, or port side of each otlit r. But If the course, of such steamers U no lai un the seaboard bt eacH other ns not to he considered by pilots as meeting "head ami head," or noarlymo, the pilot so tirsl ill tided shall Immediately give two shoit and diillnct blnnts of hip steam whistle, which the pilot ol theothei steamer shall answer promptly by l*o similar blasts of his steam whlsile, and tliey shall pus* lo the left, oi un the starboard side, of each other. Notk In the night, steamers will be con¬ sidered as meeting "head and head" so long as both the colored lights of each are In view ol the other. Rou II. Wheimeamprs are approach¬ ing each other in an oblique direction (as shown in dhigram of the fourth situation*) they shall pass to the right of each other, as If meeting "head and head," or nenrly so, and the signals by -whistle shall be given and answered promptly as In that case specified. Rum III It, when steamers are ap¬ proaching each other, the pilot of either ves¬ sel falls to understand the course or intention of tho other, whether from p|gi)als being given or <«nsv> ered. erroneously, or from other causes, the pilot so in doubt shall im¬ mediately ilgnlfy the same by giving several short and lapid blasts of the steam whistle; and If the vessels shall have approached Within hall a mlleot each other both shall be Immediately Blowed to a speed barely • sufficient for steerage way until the proper Bignals are given, answered, and understood or until the vessels Bhall have passed each other,. Rule IV. When steamers are running In I a fog or thick weather, it shall bo the duty J of the pilot to cause a long blast ol the steam whistle to be Bounded at Intervals not ex¬ ceeding pne minute. Steamers, when drifting or at nflchor. In the lair way of other vessels in a logortlikk weather, shall ring their bells at intervals ol not more than two minutes. Bulk V. Whenever a steamer Is Hearing a short bend or curve In the channel, where, from the height ot the banks or other cause, a steahicr approaching from the opposite dl rection cannot be seen tor a distance of half a mile, the pilot of such Bteamers, when he shall have ai rived within half a mile of such curve or bend, shall give a signal by one long blast of the steam whistle, which signal shall beanBwered by a Blmllar blast, given by the pilot of any approaching steamei that may be within heailng. Should such signal be so answered bj a steamer upon the farther aide of such bend, then the usual slgnalB for, meeting and passing shall Im¬ mediately be given and ailswered; hut If the first alartn flgnal of such pilot be not answered, ho Is to consider the channel clear nnd gover'n himself accordingly. Bum. VI. The signals by the blowing of the steam whistle, Bhall be given nnd answered by pilots, In compliance with these rules, not only when meeting head and head or nearly so but at all times when pas¬ sing or meeting atadlstanoe within half a mile of each other, and whether passing to het starboard or port. Bulb VII. When two steamers are ap¬ proaching the narrows known as "Hell Gate," on the East river, at New York, side by side, or nearly so, running In tho same direction, the Steamer on the right or star¬ board hand of the other, (whon approaching from the west,) when they shall have arrived abreast of the north end of Blackwell's Island, shall have the right of way, and the steamer on the left or port side shall cheok her way and drope astern. In like case when two- steamers are approaching trom the east, and are abreast at Negro Point, tbe steamer on the right or starboard hand of the other shall Have the right of way, and shall prooeed on her course with¬ out Interferance, and 'the steamer on the port side of the other shall keep at a safe distance astern (not less than three lengths) until both steamers shall have passed through the difficult channel. Bulk VIII. When steamers are running In the same dlreetlon, and the pilot of the steamer which Is astern shall desire to pass on the right or starboard hand ot the si earn¬ er ahead, he shall give'one short blast of the sleam whistle ar a signal ol such desire and intention, and shall nut his helm to port; and the pilot of the^ steamer ahead shall answer by tho same signal, or, ffTlio prolor to keep on his uourse, ho shall give two short and distinct blasts of tho steam whistle, and the boat wishing to pass must govern herself accordingly, but tile boat ahead shall In nooase attempt to cross lioV bow or crowd upon her course. ' N. B. The foregoing rules are to bo com¬ piled with In all cases oxcopt w hen stonmeis are navigating In a oiowded channol, or In the vicinity ot wharves; under such circum¬ stances steamers must run and manage with gieat caution, sounding the whistle, as may bo necessary/ to guard against collision or other accidents. I Section 4238; Revised Statutxs. Rule twenty-foui. In construing and' obeying these rules, due regard must be had to all dangers of navigation, anuVto any speiial slroumstanco which may exist in airy par¬ ticular ca.90 ronderlng a departure from them necessary In order to avoid immediate tlinjgor.A , BuleIK.
