Count Won Reventlow, Naval
Expert In Germany, Makes
Sensational Attack
CALLS AMERICAN GuNNERs POOR
Despite the Fact That the Dewey Mat
ter Has Been Satisfactorily Explained
to German Officials, the German Pap
ers Are Still Printing scathins criti
cisms of the Admiral.

Berlin, March 31.-Despite the fact
German foreign office have expressed
their satisfaction with Admiral Dewey 5
explanation TO President Roosevelt of
his remarks on the German navy, the
papers continue to print scathng cri-
ticisms of the Admiral. A sensational
attack on the United States navy by
Count Won Reventlow. one of the fore
most naval experts in Germany, was
published in the Tageblatt today.
The count prefaces his criticism with
the declaration that the German navy
could smash Dewey's heterogeneous
| assemblage, which has not single
modern, armored cruiser" Germany 5
first squadron, he says is homogeneous
and always ready for instant service,
while the American navy is a disorgan-
led disorderly array of ancient YES
sells.
The maneuvers Of the United States
navy the count regards as generally
childish and as always resulting in
defeats of the hostile fleets. the naval
commanders, therefore, gaining large
newspaper glory"
Count Won Reventlow's article is also
characterized by fierce attack on the
craftsmanship of the American gun
ners, that of the West Indian fleet being
called especially poor. The count calls
the morals of the American navy ex
tremely low, ''as Indicated by the nu-
merous deSertions" The navy, he says
further. is woefully deficient in the
number of its officers especially in Off
GERS of more than ordinary ability. and
he declares his belief that the United
States will some day have a fine navy
fleet, but she has not one yet
The criticism of Count Won Revent
low created sensation here. 1t is the
tiercest of all the recently published
attacks.
The officials of the foreign Office have
to the United States government re-
garding Admiral Dewey's comments.
The admiral's explanations were re-
garded as emnently satisfactory by
Baron Won Sternberg. and no communi-
catlon on the SUBJECT mas passed De
tween the foreign office and the German
embassy at Washington. because the
officials here from the beginning, felt
certain that ii Admiral Dewey had
been correctly reported, the government
of the United States would do every
thing proper on It's own initiative, with
out any reminder from here.
The National Zeitung, which may be
taken to convey the latest and final
utterances on the subject. in an article
confirms the statement that the gov
eminent does not intend taking any
steps in the matter either at Washing
ton or thru Charlemange Tower. the
American Ambassador at Berlin. The
paper conmends the action taken by
President Roosevelt on his own volitioa

to the. kindness of his reception by Pres

shown him as the representative of the
Salvation Army by the United States
congress, evoked repeated applause.

1t was while student at Berlin or
little later that Bismarck served for
few months as court officer. An
oft told story of that time will bear
repetition here: A witness annoyed
Bismarck so much that at last he lost
all patience and threatened to throw
the man out. Then the judge inter.
fered
"The court will itself attend to all
the throwing out that is done here"
said the magistrate, and the taking Of
testimony proceeded. Later the wit
ness again became obstreperous. Bis
marck jumped up in rage. but, be-
thinking himself in time, turned his in
dignation into humorous channel.

have yourself ! shall have his honor

teen men placed under arrest on the

outbreaks OF violence which have oc-
Cured since the beginning of the

week prior to an attack of similar
nature on a car at Forest Park, when
Policeman Paul Mendelsohn was killed
by a bullet from mob of masked men.
While the arrests today are nominally
for the assault of February 26, tf,
officials hope from this action to learn
something that will clear up the mys-
terry of Mendelsohn's death.

company, said last night that warrants

No Bituminous Strike Looked For.

Indianapolis, Ind. March 31.-Secre-
tary Wilson OF che mine workers ma
tional organization has returned from
an extended trip.
National officials OF the mine work
ers do not believe there will be genef-
all strike in the Indiana bituminous
coal fields this year.
Secretary Wilson had talk over the
telephone with the secretary OF the
Indiana bituminous miners, who takes
a hopeful view of the situation. He
told Mr.. Wilson it was probable now
that the miners would vote not to
strike. The national officials have been
using their influence to prevent a
strike over the shot firing question.
The bituminous men believe that the
employment of shot firers would pave
the way for the employment of less
skilled miners, and therby cheaper the
trade.
Secretary Wilson said the affairs of
the big organization are in good shape
with the exception of Michigan, where
a general strike is feared unless some
general agreement is effected soon.

New York. March 31.-Mark Twain
has recalled the days when he was a
pilot on the Mississippi river, in let
ter to President Francis, of the st.
Louis exposition. in response to Sir
Thomas Lipton's suggestion that Sc
ries of old-time steamboat races be
inaugurated as a feature of the expo

Twain wants a genuine reproduction
of the old-time race with the negro
roustabouts. the chanting singers; the
use of the torch basket rather than the
searchlight and the extingushment
of latter day government lights so that
the quality of plotting would count
