JAPANESE VESSEL
CAPS|ZES DURING
FLEET MANEUVERS
12O Sailors Believed Dead az
Heavily Armed Ship Turns
Over in Rough Sea

Tokyo, March 12.-R-J Japan's
newest scorpion Of the seas. the To-
mozuru, = torpedo boat with an arm
ament greater than most ships twice
her size, was wrecked mysteriously
Monday with the probable loss Of l2o
men.
The navy declined to describe the
disaster Immediately, but It was al
most certain that the Tomozuru had
capsized off the Sasebo naval base
In heavy weather.
The ministry announced the ship
had been found, after being missing
since early morning, BADLY damaged
and drifting, many Of her crew be-
lieved drowned"
The vessel, Of SGT tons, was regard
ed as carrying one OF the heaviest
ornaments ever conceived for q ship
Of her size.
It was reported that. on her fatal
trip, In connection with maneuverS
off the naval base, she carried 120
officers and men-far above her nor
NAL complement.
The navy office said rescue efforts
are proceeding" but made no men,
ton Of any survivors. Contact with
the Tomozuru was lost early Mon
day.
Several destroyers joined In .
search for the torpedo boat after she
was reported lost and fears were ex-
pressed she had capsized In the
heavy seas.
Completed Last Month
The Tomozuru was completed only
Feb. Is. It Is q new type, outside the
range Of the limits Of the London
naval treaty, because the tonnage Is
less than 600.
The japanese recently completed
three such ships. It Is understood 18
others are being built or projected
each carrying three five-inch guns
and considered equal In fighting pow
er to older destroyers Of larger sine.
It had been reported that vessels
Of the Tomozuru class were fitted
with special apparatus to prevent
capsizing.
Special study Of this problem was
given impetus after the destroyer
Sawarabi capsized Dec. 5, 1892, off
the coast Of Formosa with the loss Of
los lives.
Sasebo base headquarters made
public the names Of exactly 100 off,
GERS and men aboard the Tomozuru
but did not Immediately state how
many were believed lost.
The Tomozuru was regarded as .
triumph Of Japanese naval architec-
ture, her class representing hope
Of effectively increasing the nations
sea power outside the categories linn
tied by the London treaty.
It was understood the disaster was
q source Of deepest disappointment to
the japanese high command. A rigid
inquiry was considered certain.

DELAYS
LAID To MIRA

Quiet investigation within the
NRA organization is being planned
to learn why the legal division
has not taken to court many
dozens of cases against Blue Eagle
violatorS throughout the country,
including those of three Washing
ton cleaners and dyers, it was
learned today.
The local cases are typical Of
the situation that, according to
certain NRA officials, may lead to
a probe. For several weeks all
evidence against the alleged Of
tenders has been in readiness, and
everything set for court test, yet
no actual date for trials has been
named.
Questioned, officials in charge
of the prosecution of the local
cases today stated that they
might have some news at the
end of the week." They would
not give any reason for the long
delay in prosecution.
