AN IMPORTANT RULING
COURT OF CLAIMS DECISION ON
NAVAL PRACTICES.
II Sustained by the Supreme Court It
Will Involve a Large Sum
Of Money.

The Court Of Claims has rendered de-
cision Of Importance to the naval establish
ment. II sustained by the United States
Supreme Court, to which an appeal has
been taken, the decision will affect every
court-martial case tried during the past
forty years in which the sentence involved
a loss Of pay.
The case decided by the court was that of
John Smith. a fireman in the navy. who was
tried and convicted by court-martial on the
charge of refusing to obey proper order
from his superior officer and sentenced to
one years imprisonment, with loss OF pay
during confinement. The court gave 1udg-
ment in his favor for the full amount OF
pay claimed, amounting to about 1916. The
decision was based on the broad ground
that the accused had not been furnished
with a copy of the charges and spec1hca-
lions on which he was to be tried at the
time he was put under arrest" according
to the alleged requirements OF the naval
regulations.
The case will be appealed to the United
States Supreme Court for final and authorf-
tative determination Of the legal questions
involved. 1t is represented by the law off,
GERS of the Navy Department that the de-
cision reverses the practice OF the navy for
the past forty years, and that it is, more-
over, impossible Of enforcement in the naval
service under existing conditions. Under
the system that has always prevailed 10
the navy the charges and specifications
upon which an officer or an enlisted man is
tried by a general court-martial are not
drawn up until after the accused has been
placed under arrest and the case against
him is ready for trial. The prisoner Is al
ways furnished with a copy Of the charges
and specifications before the date set for his
trial, but not Eat the time of his arrest" as
that would be physical impossibility I'M
der existing conditions, for the reason that
the trial papers are not then in existence.
In view Of the far-reaching effects of this
decision, as we'll as on account Of the great
amount of money involved, the officers Of
the navy will await with interest the final
determination Of the question by the United
States Supreme Court.

HUMBERT TRIAL BEGUN
BROUGHT INTO COURT LIKE Or
DINARY PRISONERS.
Nine. Therese Displayed Her Usual
Bravado and Coolness-A Ram
bling Statement.

PARIS, February, 1.-The Hunabert fam
lily made their first appearance in the crimi-
nal courts today, when the case Of M. Cat
TAM. the banker. was taken up in the ninth
correctional chamber.
There was great public interest mani
tested in the proceedings, and the court
room was packed. All the previous exami-
nations of the Humberts had been held in
secret, and this was the first opportunity
the Parisians had to see and hear the pris-
oners.
The Humberts were brought in like any
ordinary prisoners and took seats in the
prisoners box.
Displayed the Usual Bravado.
Nine. Therese Humbert displayed her
Marie d'Aurignac, was apparently much
main and Emile d'Aurignac, maintained, an
attitude Of calm defiance
The case does not involve the main ques-
ton concerning the Crawford millions, but
M Cattanfs charge that they libeled him
in referring to him as usurer, which indi-
rectly affects the whole affair.
Gave a Rambling Statement.
The early stages of the trial today did not
produce any sensations. Mime. Humbert
gave long, rambling statement CT her
dealings with M. Cattani, and alleged that
his demands for excessive interest and her
borrowings from him amounted to about
100000
When M. Cattani was heard and repudi-
ated the charge of usury, Nine. Humbert
sprang from her seat and asked for the
privilege of interrogatipg the banker, but
the presiding magistrate repressed her.
The testimony furnished by Marie PAU
rignac today showed evidence of an inten-
ton to leave to Nine. Humbert the direc-
ton OF the plans for the prisoners defense.
