Great interest is being shown in the court martial which opened at Brest to-day Captain Benoist, former commanding off- cer of the Edgar Quinet which foundered in January on a rock off Blanc, Algeria and broke in two. The report of the accident after stating that the rock on which the Edgar Quinet strand cd was unmarked on the chart. examines the question whether the ship should have passed so close to the coast, taking into ac- count its special purpose as training ship, and concludes with an opinion favourable to Captain Benoist on all points.
