court-Martial Recommended by the
investigators.
Washington, Aug. %. - Secretary
Bonsparte yesterday received and
made public the proceedings and find
lngs o. the court Of inquiry which in
vestigated the explosion on the gum
boat Bennington at San Diego, Cal, on
July "a. The findings were complete
surprise. for they at once set at rest
the stories that had been circulated to
the effect that the Bennington's boil
ers; and perhaps those of other naval
vessels of the same age, were defect
i've. AS matter Of fact the court
found the explosion resulted from the
closing Of a valve which connected the
exploded boiler with its steam gauge
so that the pressure on the boiler
may have been several hundred
pounds to the square inch when the
accident occurred. While praise was
accorded the officers and crew Of the
ship for their conduct during the har-
rowing scenes following the accident,
the officers and men who were respon-
sible. in the opinion Of the court, are
pointed out and court-martial proceed
ings suggested ia the case Of the only
one Of them surviving. Ensign Charles
II Wade.

THE LEADING conservative newspaper
of Berlin. the Neue Press Ische Zeitung,
today prints what it calls an expose OF
the claim of the United States to be a
great naval or military power. The ar
ticle asserts that the American army Is
"rotteD," and that 10 per cent. OF the
soldiers deserted during the year 1904.
"The army is made up of miserable ma
terial," and according to the newspaper
'the Russian army in superior to that OF
the United States. Americans are patri-
otto with their mouths, but they are IN
willing to become soldiers, as a class.
The United States possesses sufficient to
build 100 new battleshiPs, but it IS IN
possible to man them, as neither officers
or crews exist. The article further states
chat American naval officers are all too
old for the respective ranks they hold.
Ten of the Admirals are over sixty years
of age. and the average of the naval cap
tains is 81 years, as compared with As
years in the English and German navies.
The American army, it is asserted, "will
not bear close inspection" This country
may have weak places, but that it has
ever held its own, on the sea especially,
is wel-known. Germany, however, Is
prone to minimize other countries and
magnify its own powers.
