pital ship Missouri against other Of
fioers on duty on the transport
This investigation may settle the
responsibility for the deaths OF nine
teen soldiers during the voyage Of the
vessel from Manila to San Francisco.
The character OF the charges made
by Major Arthur cannot be learned,
bur il is understood the relations be-
tween the officers were not pleasant
and DR.. Arthur thinks that in the in
terest Of efficiency It would be desirable
TO take action.
No report that the Missouri is un-
seaworthy has been received by the
department. The vessel was run with
out expense to the government by the
firm which owned her and was pur-
chased by the government last spring
for s9O0OOe.
A board OF survey has inspected the
Missouri at San Francisco and found
that many repairs are needed. 1t will
probably be nearly two months before
the vessel is ready for sea.
