rine boat Deltin sank at her moorings
in the Neva, off the Baltic shipbuilding
yard, at II o'clock Wednesday morning,
with the loss of an officer, Lieut.. Cher

due partly to the excessive number of

cided to so down in the Deltin, although

manhole in dangerous proximity to the
river level. Just then Il tug passed,
sending a heavy wash against the boat.
AS soon as the water splaShed into the
submarine boats interior it created a
panic among the novices, and one of
them tried to get out of the manhole,
which the older hands were screwing
down. preparatory to the descent. the
submcrSiN2 compartment having al
ready been opened. The water rushed
in and as the submerged vessel sank like
stone the officers ant some of the men
were saved by being blown up through
the manhole by the rush of escaping air

had been strangled to death before be-
ing thrown into the river and that her

COURTS MAY BE CRITICISED.
Federal Judge Pritchard Renders
Decision Which the Press Will
Hail with Delight.

Asheville, N. c.. June 30.-Judge J. G,
Pritchard, Of the United States circuit
court, filed his opinion In the cele-
brated case Of Josephus Daniels, editor
of the Raleigh News and Observer,
who had been fined $4,000 for contempt
of court by District Judge Purnell.
Judge Pritchard's opinion will be
recognized as an authority in regard
to newspaper utterances that might
be construed as contempt Of court.
The text of the decision, In part, fol-
lows:
"That newspapers sometimes engage
in unwarranted criticism of the courts
cannot be denied. In some instances
they construe the liberty of the press
as license to authorize them to en-
gage in wholesale abuse of the court,
but these instances are rare and do
not warrant a departure from the we'll
settled principles Of the law as de-
clared by congress and construed by
the courts. II Judges charged with the
administration Of the law are not to be
criticised on account Of their official
conduct the liberty of the press is
abridged and the rights Of individuals
imperiled.
1T appears that the distinguished
Judge who adjudged the petitioner to
be in contempt Of court exceeded the
authority granted in the act Of 1881
and that the court was without juris-
diction. Such being the case, the judg-
ment of the court is void and there
fore nullity. In view Of the forego-
ing, the court finds that the petitioner
is unlawfully restrained Of his liberty
and 1t is therefore considered and Or
dered by the court that the said
Josephus Daniels be discharged from
the custody of the marshal Of the
United States and that he go hence
without delay"
