U. SIS. Chicago's Action
Censured by Court

"a, 1893.
The high court also held the
Chicago was cruising for eight
hours nIediately prior to the
collision "as q reckless menace to
navigation, violating one or more
international rules"
THREE KILLED
Three officers on the Chicago
were killed and two men injured
in the collision. The Chicago,
travelling from San Pedro to San
Francisco in heavy fog, had turned
sharply to avoid striking the
steamer Albion Star, when it
collided with the Silver Palm,
which was held by a lower court
. to full responsibility for the crash.
Though law requires that such
ships travel at a speed in which
they could stop in half the ships
length, the Chicago allegedly was
exceeding such speed, travelling at
about Is knots an hour, the court
asserted.
FAILED TO HALT
The decision stated further
that, instead Of stopping when the
Silver Palms fog horn sounded, as
required by law. the Chicago cut
its speed to only twothirds and
continued two minutes before
stopping.
The Chicago was commanded
by Capt. II. E. Rays, according to
Twelfth Naval District head
quarters here which said Rear
Admiral M. H. Simons, then q
captain and chief Of staff of the
cruiser division, was on board the
Chicago at the time.

Soccer Game
The tables were turned on the boys
soccer team last Wednesday when
they played Stockton. The final score
was 2 to l in Stockton's favor.
Robert Allen, Pocomoke's center
forward, kicked the one and only point
made.
But the boys took their revenge on
Snow Hill when they defeated them
by the score of a to 0. This was a
rough and hard-fought game and
nearly all the players came out of it
with stiff legs.
Paul Merrill, Pocomoke's right in

Field Trip
On November 3, the Pocomoke Ag-

field trip in the near future.
Field Ball Game
Our girls broke their streak of luck,
Monday, November 9th when they jour
neyed to Snow Hill and were defeated
by score of 6-2. The girls seemed
to lack their usual pep and the team
didn't cooperate as much as they have
done in the past. The girls could not
get down the field as fast as they
should have because of lack of prac-
tice. They put up hard fight but
not hard enough to win. The, only
goal was made by Naomi Ennis.
