PORTSMOUTH, Oct. 23.—Nelbon's old flagship, the Victory, was nearly sunk in Portsmouth harbor to-day by the battle-ship Neptune. The battle-ship Hero and some minor craft were also damaged. ‘The Neptune, a non-effective vessel of 9,310 tons displacement, built in 1874, which was being towed into Portsmouth preparatory to being taken to the ‘Thames to be broken up, broke adrift and ran amuck. After desperate efforts the Neptune was secured by the Hero, but not before the former had knocked a six-foot hole in the Victory’s port quarter, The Victory's lower decks were quick- ly fleoded and she commenced to settl down, her crew standing at quarters but the speedy arrival of tugs enabled the old flagship to be kept afloat. until she was docked, Bleven-year-old Frank Doylt, of No. 423 Grand avenue, was arraigned in the Children’s Court, Brooklyn, td-day, charged with being responsible for the death of five-year-old James D.
