Of natural selection.

had met with temporary defeat, due to
the iudefensible condition Of our sea

and laid the blame for the destruction
Of our seaports upon the administers

The administration Is following the
sensible policy Of fully Investigating
the cause OF the disaster and, at The
sams time rushing all possible work to
put the country in lighting trim.
There is every reason for the belief
that the report from the Investigating
committee at Havans, winch viii

that the destruction Of the Name was
due to the explosion Of submarine
