ON SUBMARINE
Diving Explorations Also
Stopped by High Waves
and Wind.
MAY START 'SALVAGING'
Navy Men Believe. All OF
Crew Is Dead.
MAY START 'SALVAGING'
BY Carl ID. GrOat



NEW LONDON, Conn, Sept. 30.-
With divers convinced that the
sunken submarine S-51 contains
only corpses and with derricks un-
able to operate because OF rough
weather, it was believed here this
afternoon that the present rescue"
operations will soon have to be
abandoned and Salvage" operations
undertaken.
A recommendation to the Navy
Department by Admiral Christy at
+ the scene Of the S-51 will probably
be forthcoming soon.
Heavy weather developed in the
early forenoon, compelling abandon
ment of plans to attempt a hoist
with the cranes. Diving exploita-
tions inside were also abandoned.
The official message from Admiral
Christy said:
Present weather conditions make
operations not possible"
Capt Ernest J. King, chief Of the
submarine station declared he still
had not abandoned all hope, but ad-
ded:
Every days delay decreases the
small chance of anybody being
found alive aboard ship"
Two bulky, topheavy derriclls,
Century and Monarch, which two
days in succession have been driven
by rough weather to seek shelter
were forced again to put back into
a safe berth at Newport
Admiral Christy had hoped to have
them operating at the scene Of the
wreck by dawn, and accordingly or
dered them to proceed from New
port to the wreck area.
Wind Too High
At Breton Reef lightship, how
ever, the wind was found freshen-
ing and the sea kicking up, so the
two cranes were compelled to lum-
ber back into the harbor.
Today was virtually the last day
Of hope Of getting any living men
out. The Zero hour" is past.
The late night message from Ad-
miral Christy said that on the sixth
descent Of the divers Tuesday he
had given special orders to search
for bodies, though the primary OBJ
ject OF the diving was to plug
up" the ship so it could be lightened
and made buoyant for the lifting
operations.
No More COrpses
The last diver to enter the crushed
vessel was unable, however, to find
more corpses. Wreckage piled high /
and badly twisted had hampered the |
entire diving operations.
The upshot Of the days work was /
the finding Of the bodies of william /;
c. Teschmacher and John l.. Gibson
and the tragic negative report that +
the men did not know whether doors
aft were sealed so as to perhaps
hide living men beyond them.

Capt. William Paulsell, head
of the police dry squad, was
blamed for illegal entering Of

James A. Collins in Criminal
Court today.
Justice Of the Peace Henry
Spiher, 3541 w. Michigan ST.,
who appeared before the court in
answer to a subpoena to explain his
system of liquor search warrants
was described as the victim Of a
mistaken sense Of duty by Judge
Collins, who said the police had i'm.

official.
The responsibility for this siua-
tion falls upon Capt. William Paul

entering the homes of Indianapolis
is wrong. and ought not to be toll

There is too much desire to bring

thinking he was doing his duty.
With the exercise Of a little common
sense this whole situation could have
been avoided
Search Warrant Missing
Meanwhile the search warrant
which Spiher is alleged to have is
sued for a raid on the home of Miss
Martha Meyers, S1S f. North St,
is unproduced. Collins has refused
to hear evidence in the case, on APP
peal from city court where Miss
Meyers was fined 500 and costs and
sentenced to thirty days at the In

warrant is shown in court. The
case was continued.

possible" Paulsell said. There has
been some misunderstanding in
cases where no liquor was found,
but raids were made only after care
