TECHNICAL PLEA LOSES.
When David w. Sullivan. wilen w.
Easterday and Norman 8. Bowles. All
Of this city. and Jointly indicted with
Arnstein. were arraigned to- enter
their plea. Attorney Morry T. Wam-
pier appearing for them moved to
discharge Bowles frQm custody and
his bail for the alleged reason that
the time limit OF nine months, re-
quired by law>to intervene between
the time he/ gave his bail and the
time the >frand jury returned an in
dictment against him, was not OBJ
served. Justice Gould overruled the
motion on the ground that it had
nothing to do with the pleading OF
Bowles. The same motion was made
on behalf OF Sullivan.
Another motion to quash the in
dictment against Bowles, Sullivan and
Easterday was made by Attorney
Wampler, declarin gthat the indict-

|YOUNGSLAYER,
'CALLED INSANE
Or. White Declares EdgaI
Perrygo Is Typical unsound
Mind Case.

Edgar Randolph Perrygo. tho
eighteen n-year-oid boy being tried fof
the murder OF Mrs. Mary Emilt
Faithful. Is Of unsound mind and
the very nature OF the crime with
which he is charged bears out the
fact, according TO DIR. William A,
White. superintendent Of st. Eliza
beth's Hospital for the Insane, who
this morning took the stand for the
defense. 4
LACKING IN JUDGMENT.
There are certain outstanding
facts In connection with the crime
which make II quite evident that the
boy 10 suffering from a marked men
tai defect" DR.. White said. In answer
to q hypothetical question covering
the testimony in the case put by
James A. o'shea. counsel for the de-
tense.
"The very crime itself and the way
in which IL was committed shows
that the boy was lacking In that de-
gree OF control and judgment neces-
saary to dictate to him even the
simplest sort OF proceedings with
which to protect himself.
1.-The crime was committed whep
the boy knew that there were other
persons In the house, and when he
knew that his presence there was
known to such prsons. and that there
would be 10 possibility Of proving an
alibi. There was no effort whatever
{, cover up the evidence OF the crime.
CASE CALLED TYPICAL
That the defendant Is suffering from
defective mentality is borne out by
features in the testimony which are
historically typical Of persons with
defective personalities.
Among these features. as shown BY
the testimony, ne said. are the SOM
nambulistic tendencies of the boy:
the evident distress in the head indt,
Gated by frequent headaches, and tht
fact that the boy would repeatedly
knock his head against hard SUBJ
stances; dizziness tendencies OF the
defendant to wander away from
home; the fact that he was quiet and
moody and not like other boys. and
the fact that he would constantly
leave his work and wander away.
The defense Is expected to close its
case this afternoon. The Govern
ment has about seven lay witnesses
and two experts in rebuttal. and 1t 10
possible that the case will not go to
the jury before Tuesday or Wednes.
day OF next week.

One of the most interesting Of the

Urge Other New Types
An ingenious method for providing
smoke pipes without breaking the fly
ing deck area is devised for the Lang
ley. The ship will have two smoke fun
nels, one on each side, clear Of the fly
ing deck and interconnected so that the
smoke may always be discharged on
the lee side and thus not interfere
with the landing or discharge Of air
craft.
The feet submarines building num-
Der six. Six others authorized have
not yet been contracted for. Their
principal characteristics will be a long
cruising radius, enabling them to ac-
company the fleets under practically
all conditions. and new structural de-
signs to make them as nearly as pos
sible proof from depth charges. The
su5mersiDles will be over 800 feet long
with a displacement OF about 1000
tons. The propelling machinery for
surface cruising will be two main
Diesel engines aft. The other Diesels
forward will drive electric generators
which will provide current for the two
main electric motors to propel the sub
marines when submerged. The esti-
mated surface speed is twenty knots
and the submerged speed is ten knots.
In addition to these new types, Sec
rotary Daniels and the general board
have recommended the construction
during the next three years of three
other types heretofore unknown in the
United States Navy. They are the de-
stroyer Leader, long range cruising
submarines and mine laying submarine
similar to the German U-117.

France Planning g
For an Extensive
Merchant Marine
Will Not Revive Old Subsidy
System, 1t Is Reported:
Government to DISPOSE of
Its Fleet to Shipowners

France is making preparations for
the development of a merchant marine
that bids fair 10 rival in size the trade
fleet held by Germany before the war
which was slightly in excess Of 5000
600 gross tons, then the second larg-
est in the world. Despite heavy losses
of shipping during the war France has
the pre-war total of about 2,4O0 ,O0C
tons to about 1000 600 tons.
Before the war France followed q
policy of encouraging the building and
operation OF vessels under the French
nag. This encouragement was found
in a subsidy system authorized by The
laws Of 1902 and 1906, both Of which
nave now expired. Under certain con-
ditions vessels built in French yards
or sailing under the French flag re-
ceived sums Of money depending upon
the age of the vessel, its loading, etc
Recent advices from France indicate
that 1t is not the intention of the
government to revive this system and
that both the government and the ship
owners have come out against it. How
ever, the French shipowners and ship
builders have requested government as
sistance to enable them to compete
with other maritime nations on ar
equal footing, but no bill has yet been
presented for legislative action.
French shipping losses during the
WY aggregated 9z5, 900 tons, including
Isl steamers of 10000 tons and 431
sailing vessels OF 209, 900 tons. Dur
ing the course Of hostilities France
constructed in her own yards 142, ,00C
tons of shipping and had constructing
abroad for her account 10000 tons
AS this was not sufficient to meet the
purchased abroad $4,000 tons of mer-
chant vessels.
Since the armistice France has made
a great effort to build up her mer-
chant fleet, with the result that at
present she has greater tonnage than
before the war, the total in private
hands being 2,366O09 tons, including
100000 tons of former German vessels
purchased from England
To this must be added the govern
ment-operated feet, which includes
captured vessels aggregsting $4,000
tons, 100000 tons turned over by Ger
many in compliance With the peace
terms and $4,000 tons of other YES
sells. A bill is now pending turning
over this government t-owned fleet to
private operators. 1t is generally
agreed that this measure Will meet
with little opposition. France also
has on order $4,000 tons If shipping
which will bring her total tonnage
dose to 100000.
The shipyards of France before the
war numbered thirty-two, scattered
from Dunkirk to Marseilles, the prin-
cipal ones being at Dunkirk, Nantes
Bordeaux, st. Nazaire, Rouen, lie
Havre and Marseilles. During the
war and since the armistice thirty
four more shipyards have been added,
most of which are small.
In connection with the expansion of
the merchant marine government COM
missions have studied the possibilities
of developing the chief ports, particu-
larly Marseilles, Nantes and LIE Havre
The plans for lie Havre call for an ex-
penditure of 200,OOO,00O francs, while
Marseilles needs about 1913 900 francs.
