AMERICAN NAVY is
PRAISED BY MOODY
Satisfied With Work of Men and They
Are Not Deserters.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Nov. 2.-William
H. Moody, secretary of the navy. de-
livered an address this evening before
the Harvard political club on 1.-THE Ad-
ministration of a Navy"
In the course of his remarks, which out
lined in general way the functions or
the navy and the methods of mainte-
nance and administration, Mr. Moody re-
ferred to the statement that had been
published to the effect that the marksmen
of the navy of the United States We're
deserters from the British navy, tempted
to the American service by the high pay
offerd After stating that this allegation
was entirely without foundation, Mr..
Moody said:
81 personally have not much faith in
the accuracy of computations based upon
the number of hits dscoverable by an
inspection of ships sunk or burned in
the battles of Manila bay or Santiago.
1t is enough to say that the enemy s
seamen were driven from their guns,
their ships were set on fire, were sunk
or beached, and that not one escaped"
Speaking of the high scores made by
the gunnerS in recent practice tests, Sec
rotary Moody said
These results have been accomplished
by American citizens. All of our Off
GERS are, of course. Americans, and Of
the 29,800 enlisted men, 1913 per cent
are nativeborn 1919 per cent are nat
uralized citizens and 9.3 per cent are
aliens. We may have deserters from other
navies In our ranks; / know of none.
however. and If I learned of one I would
instantly discharge him."

MIA Central ard the Great Northern,
has been very successful. There is
more harmony where there is true
community Of interest between large
owner and small, and especially be-
twee Ell the controlling management and
the emp)oye. This condition is -becom-
ing more and more widespread
throughout the country.
1t is probable that after the great
industrial concerns have passed
through the fire that is now blazing
so fercely about them, after their
capitalization has been reduced to
reasonable figures and the water dried
out of their stocks, these, too, will be
taken up by the people for investment,
and not for speculative purposes, much
more largely than they have been. The
time will eventually come when all the
great properties of the country of every
kind will rest in the control Of multi
plicity of owners. Industrial co-opera-
ton has been at once the dream ana
the despair of the economist since first
the science of political economy had
mare. 1t appears likely to realize itself
through the wide distribution of stock
and bond ownership.

HOTTENTOTS MILL
GERMAN GARRISON
Rumors of Great Disaster
Reach Cape Colony
Towns.

BEAUFORT WEST, Cape Colony.
Nov. 1T is reported here that the
German garrison at Warmbad, in Ger

The German consul at Cape Town

man possessions there. A German
non commissioned officer commanding
at Warmbad has been killed and the
chlef of the rebels has been shot down.

present administration and the one
which it's attorney general Is endeaV-
oring to enforce the holding company
in question is creating monopoly. ne
has appealed to the courts on this con-
tention. Why have we heard notnlhs
from him in this other remarkable IN
stance of defiance?
Fair play is jewel. Those VINO De-
Iieve that such corporations as TINS re-
ferred TO are to be prohibited must at
least believe that all of them snouio
have equal treatment before the law
The case is so conspicuous that no plea
that it has escaped notice can be made.
The contention that nothing should be
done until the supreme court has decld-
ed the cases now before 1t will not hold
water. For the federal legal authorities
could at least have applied for an In
junction to restrain the Rock Island
company from doing business or paying
dividends until it's standing before the
law should be determined.
Why this difference is made the peo-
pie will have to judge for themselves.
Is it because those interested in the
unmolested company have influences at
work sufficiently powerful to stop the
wheels of justice? Is it because CAM
paign is coming on and all the help that
influential men can give is needed? Is
it because the president and his ad-
visers are convinced of their monu-
mental mistake, and have no wish to
conclude the universal prostration of
business that would follow the success
full carrying out of their programme?
Whatever the truth may be, one fact
stands out BADLY. The administration
has called a halt in it's destructive pol
icy. And in doing so it has shown it
self a respecter of persons. By what
principle can such a course be justi-
fed to the people of this country by
those who are solemnly sworn to adj
minister the laws impartially and with
out fear or favor?

Turn Down American Oil.

VIENNA, Nov. Arrangements for
the formation of an Austro- Hungarian
petroleum cartel have been practically
completed. 1t is understood that the
offer Of the Standard Oil to handle
the export business Of the cartel has
been refused, the refiners deciding that
the cartel itself shall manage this
branch Of the business. 1t is stated,
however, that harmonious relations will
be established with the American in
terests, particularly regarding the
German market, where it is said Aus
TRAN petroleum has recently been sue
cessfully competing with the American
product. 1t Is proposed that this car
tel shall continue for four years. One
of the provisions is the price of the
domestic product shall always remain
at between 80 and 40 cents per 22O
pounds below that of imported oil.
