Military Commission in Norfolk Probes Hunt Case and Vessel Fees
In Norfolk the Military Commission chaired by Gen. Wistar hears the Hunt case, including a $3000 fee paid to Sen. Hale for Hunt's release from Old Capitol prison. Capt. Cone testifies the steamer John A. Warner was worth $65,000 when enlisted, earned $173,500 in charters, and ran monthly deficits of $1000 to $1200 offset by onboard sales. The vessel belonged to the Delaware River Steamboat Co., with Wetherell as President and Anderson, Allen, Paxson, Harlan as directors. Evidence suggests a steamboat contracting ring linked to a Baltimore group, with the West End chartered for government service at $36,500 per year after a $55,000 New York listing.
