ANNAPOLIS, M4, June &—Rear- Admiral William F, Fullam, Superin- tendent of the Naval Academy, who resumed his testimony to-day before the Naval Court of Inquiry appoint- ed by Secretary Daniels to invest!- wate charges of irregularities in ex- aminations at the Academy, declared to the Court that Midshipman James KE. Moes of Annapolis was the man pri- marily responsible for the whole scan- dal of irregularities in connection with the last annual examination. Midshipman Moss, the Admiral as- eorted, was being supported in his plea for clemency by two United States Senators, a Representative in Congress and two lawyers. If such forces, said the Superintendent, were permitted to control in such a case it would not be possible to maintain a standard of discipline in the Naval Academy. The Admiral said that he regretted very much to have to testify con- cerning a sonversation with Robert Moss, father of Midshipman Moss, and a member of counsel for the ac- cused midshipmen, which compelled ‘him to mention the name of a naval officer. “Mr, Moss told me,” said Admiral Fallam, “that Surgeon McDowell, whom he (Moss) had defended in » civil case, had aseured Mr. Moss that he would look out for his son.” Moss had told the Admiral he did not wish to make charges against McDowell or any one else but he expressed the Dette? that the papers claimed to have been received by Midshipman Moss from an anonymous source were sent to his son by some officers. Surgeon McDowell, the Admiral said, was mentioned in that connec- tion. —_—_——— TITANIC CLAIMANTS MAY SUE IN ENGLAND United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals Sustains Order Made by Judge Mayer. ‘The right of Titanic damage clatm- ants to withdraw from the limitation of liability proceedings brought by the Oceanic Steam Navigation Com- pany, Limited, for the purpose of bringing stits against the White Star Line in the English courts was up- held to-day in a decision rendered by the United States Circult Court of Appeals, The opinion, written by Judge Coxe, was concurred in by Judges Lacombe and Rogers.
