SUTTON SELF SLAYER
 - yt Findings of Naval Court of Inquiry
 E WERE OFFICIALLY APPROVED
 sE q irt-Ef-Ea7-
Sutton's Comrades Excused on Account of Youth and Inexperience Charges of Dead Lieutenant's Mother Dismissed.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-'Lieutenant Sutton was directly and solely re- sponsible for his own death. which was self inflicted, either intentionally. or in an effort to shoot one of the per sons restraining him, and his death was not caused by any other injury whatever"
 This is the verdict of the naval court of injuiry which for some weeks has had under investigation the cause .Of the death, at the Annapolis naval academy, in October, 1907, of Second Lieutenant James N. Sutton, Jr., of the marine corps, which verdict has been approved by the judge advocate general of the navy, and by Beekman Winthrop, assistant and acting secre- tary of the navy. The court also finds:
 "Tl1at Lieutenant UtIey failed in his duty as the senior officer present. un- der article 266, U. s. navy regulations of 1909, in permitting Lieutenant Sut- ton to run away and arm himself. in stead of calling on those present for assistance and following Lieutenant Sutton and preventing him from arm ing himself, by force if necessary. and turning him over to the custody of the officer of the day.
 ''That Lieutenant Bevan. officer of the guard. f. He'd ir his duty as of ficer of the guard, in not disarming Lieutenant Sutton by force, while in front of his Sutton's) tent.
 ~That Lieutenant Willing, officer of the day, failed in his duty as officer of the day, in not immediately assisting by force in helping to disarm Lieu tenant Sutton when he arrived on the scene before the fatal shot was fired.
 That the charges of wilful murder and conspiracy to conceal it, made by the complainant, Mrs. Sutton, mother of Lieutenant Sutton. are purely imaginary and unsupported by evil dence, truth or reason.
 ''The court recommends, however. that in view of the youth and decided ineXperience of Lieutenants Utley. Willing and Bevan at the time, and of the altogether unusual conditions of excitement, threats and danger dur ing the aforementioned fray, that no further proceedings be taken
 Counsel for Mrs. Sutton intimated that they were far from satisfied and probably would take the issues in vOlved to congress with a view of having a full hearing of the case by a committee of that body. Mrs. Sut- ton declined to discuss the result of the inquiry, which she had sought, in an effort to clear her boys name from the stigma of suicide.
 Secretary Winthrop said he had dissolved the court and ordered copies of the findings. together with his ob- servations, to be sent to Henry F. Davis, attorney for Mrs. Sutton, and to Arthur A. Birney, Lieutenant Adams attorney.

been informed that it probably would
be days before the governor could act
on their sons recommended parole
and that he would have to sift the
matter thoroughly. By accident or
good luck the governor passed hur-
riedly from his Office to the telephone
