SECRETARY TAKES UP CUDGELS
Writes Long Letter in Defense of Navy
Department.
(By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, d. g. Jan. 6.-Secre-
tary Long has addressed to Senator
IInute Nelson, OF Minnesota, 4 long let
ter defending tie Navy Department
against what is declared to be unfriend-
~ criticism in connection with the dis
tribution Of prize money and bounty.
The letter is called forth by one from
the Senator, asking for information en-
this point for the use Of a western news
paper.
The secretary declares that the criticism
that the department has Disseminated
in favor of Admiral Sampson and against
Admiral Schley in the distribution Of
prize money and bounty, is unjust, be-
cause the department has no control over
this matter; the money being Distributed
from the Treasury, and all questions CT
law and fact relative to prize money and
bounty having ueen determined by the
courts.
The secretary calls attention to the
laws touching prize money and bounty
as they existed at the beginning of the
Spanish war and he says that. though
advised by the Acknowledgement that it
might make distribution, lie Navy De-
partment preferred to place the matter
in the Court Of Claims and so far from
displaying favoritism adopted tho most
euective means in its power to secure a
just distribution by the courts of law.
COMMANDERS PART.
Touching the claim of Admiral Samp-
son for bounty at Santiago. the Secre-.
tary says that the distribution was made
under a decree of the Court of Claims.
which he cites. and from which no APP
peal was taken He further points out
that under the prize laws the comman-
tier-in-chief of the fleet is entitled to his

Mr. Pollard will PROBABLY place the mat
ter in the hands of a printer within a
day or so. he plan of distribution is
through merchants, who will be asked to

orally in the move for the furtherance
of the interests of the State.
On this committee, in addition to Mr..
Pollard are Colonel John Murphy and
Mr.. 3. f. Johnson. All express the opiH-

OUR SHIPYARDS,
German Naval constructor Makes Very
sn Favorable Report.
(By Associated Press.)

BERLIN, Jan. 6-Tjard Schwartz, a
German naval constructor, who was re-
Gently sent to the United States by the
Marine General Staff to investigate ship
building there, has submitted his reports.
The Investigator says that materials for
the construction of steel ships are lower
in price in the United States than in any
other country and tina the only thing
to be complained of is the fluctuation OF
prices.
The German investigator refers to the
splendid body of American workmen
earning wages from thirty to fifty per
cent higher than those paid in Great
Britain and 100 per cent. higher than the
Wa ges paid on the continent. and says
that wage bills are counterbalanced by
economical processes of machinery not
found in European yards.
Herr Schwartz reports that notwith-
standing the wages paid freighters ere
being built on the great lakes as cheaply
as tramp steamers are built in Great
Britain.

whether he is personally present during

tary:
.'As commander-in-c chief, Admiral
Sampson would. therefore. under the law.
have been entitled to his share Of bounty
for the destruction of the Spanish ships
at Santiago if he had been on the north
shore of Cuba at the time. This was the
law for which the Navy Department was
in nowise responsible"
AMUSING FEATURE.
On this point the Secretary says that
the Department itself was the first to
realize the iniquities of this law and
to make the recommendations which led
to its repeal SO that, "a rather amusing
feature of the attacks made upon the
Navy Department" as the Secretary
puts it, is that the administration is
blamed more than two years after it had
cured the evil.
The Secretary concludes his letter with
an extract from the report of the auditor
of the Treasury for the Navy Depart
ment showing the status of the prize
money and bounty cases yet unsettled,
owing to delays III the courts, and pre-
dieting a settlement within the year.
