Hold Attempt at Barratry.
PI.OT TO STEAL A TES8KI, AND BKB CAKCiO—
IIOTT IT WAS DISCOVERED.
Baltimore, March 13.—One of
the most remarkable instances of
alleged barratry thatbaabeen brought
to light here in a wood many years
wa« discovered yesterday, a British
brigantine and her whole cargo of
coffee being represented to have been
“ appropriated ” by a passenger, in
collusion with her Captain and crew,
and brought here to be sold.
The British brigatine Alexis, Cap^
tain George Williams, reached Balti
more on March 7, from Porto Cabello,
Venezuela, with 4,377 bags coffee,
weighing 508,535 pounds, and 822
hides. J. F. Kinncar, an English*
man about thirty-five years old, of
good address, with his colored serv
ant, came as passengeis. Kinncar
represented that he owned the cargo,
and said that he had been traveling
in South America for his health. He
said he bought the cargo for a private
venture, aud believing the United
States offered a belter market than
could be found iu Europe, he con
cluded to come to Hampton Roads
in search of purchasers.
Before ordering the. vessel to Bal
timore he came here from Hampton
Roads, and for a day or two nego»
tiated with coffee buyers, at length,
arranging with Messrs. Eugene
Levering Co., Commerce street,
eoflee importers and jobbers, to buy
the cargo from him or sell it for him.
When the brigantine reached port
she entered at the custom house, but
her papers were in some > respects
irregular. The manifest, on a rough'
looking piece of paper, read that the
cargo was shipped by Rivas A Velas
ques, Porto Cabello, and was con
signed to J. F. Kinnear, and that she
left Porto Cabello, January 31. The
coffee and hides were stored in a
warehouse on Falls Point, and the
vessel went to Canton for ballast.
In the meantime doubts as to the
regularity of her papers were not
allayed. Kinnear had | asked the
Messrs. Levering to advance 86°,000
cash on the cargo, but the firm held
the request under advisement. It
was found that no brig named Alexis
was in any maritime record, and a
dispatch to the Canadian Minister of
Marine Affairs elicited the reply that
Hopewell, !Nava Scotia, from which
the papers said the Alexis hailed,
was not a port of register.
This confirmed the suspicion that
there was something wrong, and at
tention was at once given the matter
by the British Consul, Collector
Thomas and others, with a view of
Kinnear stopped at a leading hotel
here, and iu bis baste to get away he
left his colored servant behind, and
the latter has fallen into the hands of
the police. He says be lias been the
body servant of Kinnear for two
years. The British Consul yesterday
placed a watchman in custody of the
brig, and she is held to await identi
fication. Messrs Levering, it is
understood, advanced Kinnear one
thousand dollars, but refused to buy
the cargo or sell it on commission
until lie had identified himself as the
owner. As the affair lias turned out
the owners of the cargo and also of
the vessel will not be large losers, as
both are held intact.

a dispatch from Mills & Co., of St,

that she had been chartered to take a

and it was doubtless their vessel
which was in the port of Baltimore
Nexi it was found out that the Alice’s
cargo was destined for Hamburg

brought back the information that
the cargo was owned by several
Hamburg mercantile firms to whom
it had been shipped from Porto
Cabello, and that it was insured in
Europe at its value, namely ninety
two thousand dollars gold.
The name of the Alice wherever it
appeared on the vcsssl had been
