STORY or AUTOMOBILE RIDE
AND ALTERATION.
OCCURANCE or TWO YEARS AGO
Dramatic Death Struggle Enacted
With Former cIassmate Dur.
Ing the Second Investi-
cation Of Case.

Annapolis, Md.-The opening seq
sion here Of the court of inquiry
which Is conducting a second inves-
tigation into the death Of James Nut
tie Sutton Of the United States ma
rne corps, was replete with dramatic
situations. Lieutenant Robert e.
Adams, Sutton's former classmate at
the Academy and one of the principal
actors in the midnight fight which
cost young Sutton his life nearly two
years ago, occupied the witness stand
during the entire session and told a
graphic story of the incidents leading
up to Sutton's death. With nervous
demeanor, momentarily confused at
times, and yet almost defiant under
the severe cross examination, Adams
sat facing Sutton's mother and sister
during his examination. At one point
In his testimony Lieutenant Adams
and an orderly enacted the struggle
with Sutton. The witness chair was
removed and they lay prone upon the
floor. The witness was still under
cross examination when the inquiry
adjourned until today.
An Auto Ride and Fight.
Mr.. Davis succeeded in bringing out
number Of discrepancies in Adams
testimony, compared with his version
Of the tragedy in the former investi-
cation when the board of inquiry
found that Sutton died by his own
hand. How important they may be
and what bearing these contradictions
may have on Adams future position
In the case Is expected to develop
more clearly as all the facts are grad
ually unfolded in court.

tomobile with Sutton and two other
officers of marine, Lieutehants Utley

was stopped short Of the camp with
the intention Of avoiding being caught
returning after hours; a later accident.

on the border Of the woods near the

him. he said. Sutton had previously
threatened to kill him and was gen.

of his wild talk and actions, accord
