PETROGRAD, Oct. 21.-The Rus sians have succeeded in getting all their ships except observation elements out of Moon sound without losses and in perfect order, according to an off, cial communication issued by the mar inc department The communication says that Oesel and Moon islands have definitely passed into the hands of the Germans, but that the military opera tions on Dago island are being ham pered by topogra phical conditions, not ably the marshy ground.
 The communication says
 AS the result of the state of affairs in Moon sound, it was recognized as being necessary to transfer the base of our forces defending this region to a more secure point at the mouth ol the Gulf of Finland, only retaining at the former base observation elements. Despite the difficult conditions and the enemy's measures to prevent our sortie from Moon sound, we succeeded, without loss and in perfect order, In eyacuating not only the bulk or our military forces, but also the whole naval installation in Moon sound, not ably transports and smaller craft.

Aftermath Of stsamboat Disaster In

since the picnic steamer East1and
turned turtle At her dock in the Chi
cago river here. snuning out the lives
of S12 men, women and children,
compensation for their deaths has
not been made, and the suits growing
out OF the disaster today are in q
bad legal tangle.
Surviving relatives of the e12 wage
workers who met death on the East
land are, in many Instances, poor
people who depended on the earnings
of the victims OF the disaster
Interest In the situation today CEN
ters on the question Of whether 313
suits for damages in Federal npurt
shall be consolidated and air trfed At
once, or tried separately.
Should the supreme court order
the cases tried separately, as the
owners Of the Eastland demand, II IL
estimated that the trials will last
fifteen years, allowing q minimum Of
two weeks for each case.
There II q bill before Congress 10
give the United States Court Of
Claims Jurisdiction in the cases. This
would open the way for the surviving
relatives Of victims to make claim
against the Government. Many OF
them blame the Federal steamboat
inspection service for the disaster.
