against the International Magazine Com

The complainant asks for damages to the
amount Of 500. 600 for alleged hbellous
statements contained in an article entitled
Growth Of Caste in America" which ap-
pcared in the Cosmopoltdn Magazine for

The article refers TO the explosion Of
the boilers on the gunboat Bennington in

Wade. then an ensign, was attached to
the Bennington as chief engineer, and he
saws in his complaint that he was the only
commissioned officer. except the com
mander, who had any right in and about
the boilers and engine room. On this
fact he bases his action, since the offend-
ing article does not mention his name.
The burden OF that part Of the article in
volved Ia to the effect that naval officers
are better informed In regard TO social
duties thar about their own business. This
state Of affairs. 1t Ia inferred. results in in
competency and carelessness. This, the
writer AYERS, was the cause of the explo-
sion on the Bennington, in which sixty
officers and men we're killed and forty
says, he was charged with i~ncompetency
and carelessness because he was the only
commissioned officer on the Bennington
who could be responsible for the condition
Of the boilers and engine room. He charac-
terizes this and the other charges as false,
