Five men were | killed and nine others seriously in- | Jured in the disaster | The question of the future use of | the Edison batteries on submarines | may depend upon the outcome of the | report of the court of .inquiry. .as Secretary Daniels hopes to determine from it whether the battery itself was responsible for the explosion. One Survivor Examined. Only one of the survivors was ex- amined by the board, as the others were not in condition to testify. The finding of the board were made pub- lic as follows: “1—The board conclude; sion was due to of gas, namely by the explo- an excessive amount hydrogen, generated & from the storage batteries, forming with the air a highly explosive mix- ture. That there were two pockets of this mixture, one at the after end of the after battery and the other at the forward end of the forward battery; and it appears that the initial explo- sion occurrad at the after end of the after battery. “2—That the ignition was caused by a spark, the origin of which the board is unable to determine. “3—The exact conditions existing in | bhattery compartments at the moment of the explosion cannot be determined, as Chief Electrician L. L. Miles, U. S. | N., who was in charge at the time, and the other enlsted men in the compartment at the time are too ser- iously injured to be questioned. “4—The condition of the. batter! at the low voltage and amperage, and 940, respectively, at about' 12 P..m.;, would probably cause a rever- S4Y ‘of voltage in some of the cells. and, in the opinion of-the board, thi caunsed the generation of an ex; sive amount of hydrogen gas.” Secretary Daniels said last that the work of installing the new Tdison batteries on the submarine 1-8, now building at the Portsmouth, N. H., navy yard, would be continucd at least until the report of the court of inquiry was received . Tt is the intention of the secretary to deter- mine, finally, whether the battery it- self was responsible for the explosion | Tefore he decides what the . fufure policy will be regarding its use by the navy for submarines. | e | Four Torpedo Heads. York, Jan. 19—There were | torpedo heads, each containing | approximately 120 pounds of gun- cotton, on board the United States submarine E-2 at the time of the ex- | plosion which caused the death of five men and injuries to nine others | st the Brooklyn Nayy Yard, Satur- day, according to the testimony, today , of Lieutenant Charles M. Cooke, com- | mander of the E-2, before the board of inquiry appointed by Secretary Daniels It was later explained that the gun- cotton was wet and that there w no great danger of it exploding Tong as it was in that condition, but members of the crew were praigsed for extinguishing a fire that started near Fhe torpedo heads after the explosior.. It was said that if the fire had con- tinued the gun-cotton might havs been dried out and become exceed- Ingly liable to explosion, in whic event the havoc would have been ter- rific. 8 | ni, New four The court opened its sessions yes terday and the first action of the four members was to don overalls and jumpers and inspect the wrecked in- terior of the E-2.

PERSIA NOT SUNK BY GERMAN SUBMARINE Berlin Foreign Office Receives Report From All U-Boats in Medi- terranean. ‘Washington, Lansing Jan. 19.—Secretary announced yesterday that the Berlin foreign office had informed Ambassador Gerard that all German submarines in the Meditérranean have reported and that none was con- cerned in the destruction of the Brit- liner Persia. This assurance was a sequel to thn memorandum recently presented by the ambassador, promising full saf- isfaction to the United States if it should be found that a German sub- marine commander had violated his instructions and sunk the Persia without warning. It has been generally believed herc that if a submarine wrecked the Per- sia, on which at least ‘e American citizen was lost, it was of Austr nationality. Ambassador Penfield last dispatches said no Austrian sub- marlvlm had reported attacking the vessel.

The Hague, Netherlands, Jan. 19. -—Dr. von Kuchlmann, the German minister, said yesterday that the whole fliculty regarding the return of the 2 inavian members of the Ford peace party to their homes by way of Germany was one of formality, Berlin not having yet authorized the crossing of German territory. The origin of the Reuter’s Scandinavian peace mission trouble is that the members of the Ford party were permitted to travel through Germany to Holland as a group and that now they wish to return sing which is not permissible under existing ar- rangement.

Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield, N. J. 15-31 LORD DERBY SURE ALLIES WILL WIN Confident Rapidly Growing Forces of Entente Powers Will Give Ger- many ‘“a Good Lickin, London, Jan. 19.—Lord Derby re- ceived the correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press at the war office vester- day afternoon and for half an hour discussed the war outlook resulting from the Derby recruiting scheme and the compulsory military service bill, more particularly their effect is as- suring the prosecution of the war to a successful conclusion. Asked how many men would come forward under the Derby plan, and what the British fighting force in the fleld would, he said: “It is impossible to make estimates on the numbers of men, for if the Angel Gabriel made an estimate someone would be found in the House of Commons to rise and challange the estimate. But one essentlal thing in sure—it has been a complete answer to Germany and has shown that we will have enough men to carry for- ward the war to a successful conclu- sion.”” When Lord Derby was asked what a *successful conclusion” implied, he sald: “Answering that might involve laying down terms of peace, such as Germany’s - getting out of Belgium and France, and so on, which is out- side of any province. But certain it it that a successful conclusion of the war means that it will be prosecuted until we have such a peace as will make it perfectly sure that there will be no further wur of this kind in our time, or in our children's children time. It will be absoluetly conclusive and nothing short of that. 5 Lord Derby had no doubt of the outcome, and he referred to the ability of the rapidly expanding army to give Germany ‘“‘a good licking” and, he added, “it will do it all right.” COST OF SICKNESS RUNS IN BILLIONS 'om Preventable Tiness Alone at Yearly Total of $3,000,000,000. 19—The econo- illn ‘Washington, Jan. mic loss from preventable among workers in the great industries of the United States is estimated at $3,000,000,000 a year. This is less duc to impaired efficiency of labor and consequent decrease of production be- cause of partial or complete incapac- itation of workers, skilled and un- skilled. Authorities of the United States Public Health Service believe that a large part of this loss is prevent- able. Hence a campaign has been started, backed by the Public Health Service, which involves the introduc- tion of a thorough system of medical supervision in the great industrial plants of the United States. A recent statement issued by Surgeon General Rupert Blue pointed out the essen- tial§ of a system of medical super- sion in the industrial field: 1.

To this, he said, the Japanese public is bitterly opposed. In view there- fore of the hostile public sentiment and of the undoubted presence in Tokio of hoth Chinese and Japanese fanatics, Japan, the minister said, is afraid least harm might come to the projected mission and it prefers ac- cordingly that it be postponed.

It ought to be made impossible, so far as the power of the government is concerned, for any man or corporation to make money out of war.

To me, Americanism means fidelity 'to American interests, loyalty to Ameri- can institutions, pride in our past and confidence in our future.

Sent to Jail A tale of six washboard vears hard work over a to secure food for her young son was told in police court this morning by Mrs. Annie Marshall, when the adjourned case of her faith- less husband, charged with non-sup- port, was taken up for trial before Judge James T. Meskill. The defen- dant was represented by Judge Wil- liam F. Mangan. M Marshall said that married to Marshall nearly seven ve ago. Shortly after the marriage her husband, who had never lived with her, left town and ceased to contrib- ute toward her support. Tle was lo- cated in Stamford and brought back to this city where he was arraigned in court and ordered to furnish a bond to pay his wife $56 a week for one vear. The payments were made for a few months when th ceased, and since then she has received nothing from bhim. This was over si years ago. In answer to questions by Judge Mangan, Mrs. Marshall said that ef- forts were made to locate her hus- band, but without avail. She said her husband came to her home on Spring street Monday evening and tried to induce her to get a divorce, offering her $100, and agreeing to defray all expenses of the court. He also agreed to contribute to the support of the child. Witness said she refused the offer. Mrs. Marshall said that when the accused had seen his new plan would not work, he offered to pay her $8 a week if she would drop the case. Marshall was called and said that for four years he has been working in Canada, where he earned $2 a day. He admitted that he had been ordered hy the court to pay his wife $5 a week and for a time he did so, but slackn of work caused him to discontinue the payments for a time. Later the bonds- man in the case, Herman Baehr, made the pavments each week. When asked by Prosecutor Klett whether he knew the s of his child previous to his return home, the ac cused admitted that he did not. Aske why he did not support his child, Marshall said that he was not sure of its paternity. He admitted making overtures to his wife last Monday about the divorce and paying for ex- pense attached to it, but denied em- phatically that he offered her $8 a week. He said it would be an im- possibility for him to pay that amount. He admitted that he was under bonds to appear in the conrt of common pleas at the time of his marriage. Marshall stated in emphatic tones that he would not live with his wife under - any conditions Prosecutor Klett, in reviewing the case, spoke of the hard struggle the wife had to support her son. He spoke of the previous conviction of Marshall and how, after paying his wife the sum ordered by the court for a time, he jumped out of the countr where he knew he was safe from ar. rest and. had it not been for the cir- ances connected with his return. Te would still be lamghing at the law. In speaking of the present case, he said that, in view of the decision of the court ordering Marshall to con- tribute §5 a week for the support cof his family six years ago, conditions were now such that he felt that a bond should be furnished by the ac- cused to pay his wife at least $7.50 a week for one year. Judge Mangan ridiculed the prose- cutor’s statements that Marshall should be made to pay such a sum, saying: “He might just as well ask that this man be committed to jail. Probably this will give the wife some satisfaction.” Judge Mangan said a man of Marshall’'s means could not possibly pay such a sum, which would mean his incarceration in jail. FHe criticised testimony of the wife on the witness stand and branded her state- ment about the offer to pay her $8 a week as a falsehood. Judge Mangan said that there was no question that the accused w in duty bound to support his child, but he thought that $3 or $4 a week would be sufficient. Judge M ill sentenced Marshall to serve sixty days in jail, suspending sentence provided the accused furnish a bond of $300 to pay his wife $i week for a year. Gets Jail Seatence.

Witness said that James Kelly came down stairs and grabbed him and dragged him the house, and as f%ie reached the ground, he was struck by Kelly and the Jatter jumped on him, and was so engaged when Mrs. Kelly called out, “Oh Jimmy, vou should be ashamed of yourself for hitting such a little fellow.” He said Kelly then ran into the house. “How old a child are you?” Prosecutor Klett. “Twenty-two years sald. “You were under the influence of drink when you went to this mau's home,” the prosecutor asked. “Oh no, I have been "on the wagon® since New Year’s,” Scott replied.
