Thirty-six men trooped down the gang plank of the destroyer Biddie last night, at Pltfladclphia navy yard. The first of the group was raising his voice in a nautical tenor's version of "how dry 1 am," and accompanying his song by a broad smile. Behiud him came the rest, some singing, some calling out cheery "hellos," but alt smiling. This was the homecoming of the survivors of the submarine' S-5. Their boat is at the bottom of the sea, but it is expected it( will be sal vaged. " i ' " Snatched From Jaws of Death. A few hours before kindly fate, aiding the never failing "luck of'the navy," had snatched them from the jaws of death and released them from nearly two days' entombment in a submarine, one end of which rested on the ocean floor and. the other stuck up in the vatqr at air angle of 60 degrees.
