CORONER WILL EXONERATE TWO
 SAILORS WHO RAN DOWN CANOE

Coroner Phelan will make a finding tomorrow that Ralph Bartlett. who was drowned when a motor boat in which Captain c. B. sDemmons and Mate OIie Houston of Rockfand. Me, were Sailing, rammed and upset a. ca noe in which Bartlett and George PulIon were padding, met death by accident. The canoe was upset in the Pequonnock river about 12 o'clock last Sunday morning. Demrnons and Houston are still held by the police under s5, 900 bonds on charge of mans1aughter
 The fact that the men admit they were intoxicated by the excessive use of gin before they rammed the canoe, is the only reason the coroner has not ordered their discharge. Coroner Phelan is convinced that Captain Dennaons and Mate Houston did not wiIfully run down the canoe. He is insisting that the master and mate of the schooner Brigadier be held until he can satisfy himself as to the law governing the responsibility of persons who operate motor boats while under the influence of liquor.
