BY GEORGE H. MANNTNc;

! tWa ehingtcn Bureau Of \. E. Heraldl Washington, July l3.-Exports of i American builders hardware to for eign countries dropped off consider ably in May, falling even below the March level.
 The total value Of American made padlocks, door locks and lock sets. cabinet and other locks, hinges and butts, and other builders hardware exported in May was sS59.409. whereas the April figure was $4SS,- 800, and the March figure was $36S.- 235, according to q statement issued by the department Of commerce to- day.
 Australia seems to be the best market for American- made builders hardware. In May it was first in the number of dozen door locks and lock sets, taking 53 dozen; in the num- Der of padlocks, taking @,774 dozen; and in the value of miscellaneous builders hardware, taking exports of these products amounting in value to $23,940.

 A huge slump, amounting to nearly 25 per cent, took place in the foreign trade of American cutlery during the three spring months, 1t Is shown by export figures of the de- partment of commerce.
 While the slump was continued into May, the greater part of the loss was between March and April. All commodities except table cutlery felt the decrease, the greatest loss being in safety razor blades. the principal foreign export in the cutlery line.
 The March exports of American safety razors, blades, scissors and shears, table, kitchen and miscel- laneous cutlery totaled S737,217. In April the vale of the exports fell to s578,661, and in May they further decreased to $538,4S5.
 Divided into classes, the values of the May experts were safety razors, S61,495; razor blades, s241.259; scissors and shears, $14.450 table and kitchen cutlery. $57S55. and other cutlery S163,926, Razor blades fell from q value of S371.596 in March. and the other commodities declined approximately with the ex- ception Of tableware, which rose from an export value of S49,761 in March.

Night of Tragedy Reconstructed
 by Naval Officer

New York, July 13 dPl-The oper- ating and living equipment Of the submarine S-51, submerged off Block Island ten months after the fatal collision with the steamer City Of Rome. is beyond salvage, Lieut.. Commander Morris J. Lenney, com mander Of the sister ship S-5o, today told the naval board of inquiry. Commander Lenucy was the first 10 enter the wreck after it had been placed in dry dock.
 The forward torpedo room was q wreck. he said. with torpedoes rust ing, the firing head battered, the firing tubes damned and handling gear in bad repair.
 The main storage batteries and electrical equipment, the navigation equipment, and all living equipment were hopelcssly damaged.
 Commander Lenney reconstructed for the board a picture of the ac- lions of the crew, before and at the time of the collision. The engine room clock and three watches were stopped at 11:25 p. m, daylight say ing time. the hour Of the crash. The control room clock was too battered to read.
 He said he believed the engines had been stopped by the man on watch, in accordance with the sub marine regulations for emergencies. The annunciator from the bridge was set ahead, but the throttle was closed, and one Of the two exhaust valves. always open when the en- zines are running, was fully closed. Ihis indicated that the engineer had stopped the non-reversible en- zines without waiting for orders and was preparing to reverse with the electric motors when the waters gusned in through the hole in the vessels side, trapping him and the crew.

Athol Widow Wins
Insurance Fight in
Question of Indemnity

Richmond, Va, Feb. 27.-FederaI ap-
peal court held here today that the
death of DR.. George F. Dodge of Athol,
Mass, which occurred in Mercy Hos
pital, Baltimore, April 26, soon after
novacaine had been injected into his
tonsils preliminary to an operation
for removal of them, was the result of
an accident. and that his widow, Win
ME L. Dodge, is entitled to recover
double the face value of a $4,000 poll
icy, carrying double indemnity
clause, which was issued by the Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company of New
York.
The decision affirms Judgment of the
district court at Baltimore. The COM
pany paid the face of the policy but
denied liability for double the amount,
insisting that death was not due to
accidental means. DR.. Dodge. it was
claimed, had what was described as an
idiosyncracy or hyper-susceptibility to
that peculiar drug. consequently it was
argued his death came within range
of an accident.
TT is true" said the appeals court
in its opinion. that the doctor in
tended to apply the drug and that the
insured intended that he should apply
it, but neither intended he should APP
ply it to a body possessed of the lido
syncrasy. Death resulted because of
his applying the drug in ignorance of
this popularity in the object acted
upon and was the result not calculated
Eor intended and one which could not
reasonably have been foreseen."
