ARGUE DEMURRER
IN ACCIDENT SUIT

An echo Of the fatal accident on
December Of last year at the Reybold
Station crossing, was heard in the
Superior Court today, when argument
was heard on demurrer filed by the de-
fendant in the cases Of Captain Viii
liam II. Menges, of Fort DUPONT, and
Sylvester G. Downes, survivors of the
accident. L. Irving Handy and W. L.
Adams represented the plaintiff and
Ward, Gray and Neary appeared for
the Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington Railroad Company.
John f. Neary argued the demurrer
to the counts in the mar Of the plain
tiff. This action is brought to recoy-
er damages for injuries received by
the plaintiffs when p, B. & w. en-
CINE and car collided with the automo-
bile at the Reybold station. The allie
cations are that the crossing was an
exceedingly dangerous one, and that
the plaintiffs received no warning of
the approach of the engine and car
which struck the automobile in which
the plaintiffs were riding at the time
of the collision. The court reserved
its decision for the present.

PROTECTION FOR
Americans IN EAST
WarShipS to Remain in
Turkish Waters Indefi-
nitely, Washington Says
EXPLANATION OF
SHOTS TO BE MADE
BY The United Press.

By Inc lniteh fress
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-The Amer
lean warships North Carolina and Ten
nessee will remain in Turkish waters
indefinitely. Reports that they are to
be recalled as soon as the Smyrna in
cident has been officially disavowed were
today denied at the Navy Department.
At the same time Secretary Daniels
takes the position that this act is not
an aggressive one. And in officially
confirming that the orders to Captains
Decker and Oman that they must not
act on their own initiative have been
modified SO that they may, should grave
necessity arise, protect American citi-
zens as the situation may warrant" the
secretary today tooS the position that
he had not reversed himself. lie insist
ed that the original orders to the com
manders of the warships that they must
not initiate any hostile move without
specific orders was only meant to be
temporary until he could be assured
that the State Department and Ambas-
sador Morgenthau We're working in COM
plete sympathy.
The new orders simply put into eff
iect the naval regulations. The lat
ter give commanders of American
Warships discretionary powers. when
they cannot communicate directly
with the department to "act for the
protection Of American interests"
even TO the extent of using their war
ships batteries or landing marines.
II was under his construction Of
these powers that Rear Admiral Mayo
precipitated the Tampico incident
which brought the American battle
heet into Mexican waters.
II is understood here that this change
m the attitude of the administration is
due to serious pressure from the mis-.
sionary interests of the United States.
ne heads OF the various denominational
mission societies have been alarmed for
the safety of their representatives ever
since Turkey revoked the conventions un-
der which foreigners have been permit
ted In Turkey. This antedated the war
and was followed by vigorous protest
by this government When it was an
nomced here that the officials of the
warships now in Mediterranean waters
were to be forced to work only under
specific instructions from here the mis-
sionary organizations became angered. A
flood of protests has been poured in
on the White House with the result
that announcement is now made that
our warships viii remain where they
can acts TO protect Americans if needed.
AT the same time. however, the
Turkish government has been assured
by Ambassador Morgenthau that the
United States believes il will protect
all Americans everywhere under its
jurisdiction, An official report from
the ambassador explaining that Tur-
key has officially disavowed any hos
tile intent in connection with the shot
fired by the Smyrna port authorities
at the Tennessee's launch. is expected
very soon. Unofficial advices from
Constantinople say that a complete ex-
PLANTATION, following the unofficial one
already made, has been furnished the
ambassador and it is believed now to
be on the way to this city.
