FILE A DEMURRER.
Gen. Harries and Lieut.. Durston at
tack Right to Maintain Suit

Gen. Harries and Lieut.. Durston At
tack Right to Maintain Suit.
In the suit instituted by William G. Cleve-
land as administrator against Gen. George
H. Harries, Ensign William s. Bleo and
Lieut.. Frank s. Durston of the naval mill
tia of the National Guard, Gen. Harries and
Lieut.. Durston have filed demurrer at
lacking the right in law to maintain the
suit. Mr.. Cleveland represented to the court
that he was entitled to damages because
of the drowning of his son, an enlisted man
In the naval militia of the National Guard
some time last November, when on a speed
launch in the tow of the United States
ship Oneida, which was then on a cruise
on the Potomac river to escort the Presi-
dent on his return from Panama.
The declaration averred that the deceased
was drowned by the negligent manning of
the Oneida and the alleged Incompetence Of
the officers in charge.
The demurre states that there is no right
of action in an enlisted man against an Of
ficer in the absence of the showing of some
illegal or malicious act. 1t further states
that the defendant had no function in the
selection, equipment or construction of the
vessel, but that 1t is loaned to the militia
by the Navy Department.
The point is also made that the drown
ing did not occur in the District of Column
bia, and that there is no right of action
under the statute for this additional rea-
son. Assistant United States Attorney
Stuart Mcnamara represents the defend
ants.
