COLLIER 70 ACCOMPANY WARsA|Ps

WASHINGTON, D. c. March -
One of the most important steps taken
in the navy department in the way
of adding to the mobility of the fleet in
time of action is the equipment of one
of the naval GOLFERS with an English
apparatus which will permit of coaling
at sea. This has been subject dis
cussed with much interest by the naval
general board. 1t is considered of
equal importance with the means of
repairing ships on the firing line by the
employment of a floating dock. If YES
sells can be coaled at sea, of course,
there will be a great saving in time,
which, in the event of war, means the
preservation of the integrity and there
fore the maintenance, Of the efficiency
of the fleet The adoption of the Brit
ish system of coaling ships at sea will
not be received in all quarters with
approval, since it means the rejection
of an American model which was re-
Gently tested in the service and with
out those results deemed satisfactory
by the expert observers. In the con-
tract made for the installation Of the
apparatus on the naval collier it is
stipulated that the contractors shall
receive no compensation until the de-
vice has been fully tested under prac-
ticaI conditions. This will include
coaling at a distance from the shore
and in reasonably rough weather.

Montana's Governor Wants 10
End Capital Punishment.
WILL ASK FOR ITS ABOLITION
DETAILS OF RECENT HANGING OF
WILLIAMS CRATES ON HIS
NERVES.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 6.-Gover-
nor Johnson will recommend in his
message to the next legislature the
abolition of capital punishment in the
state of Minnesota.
This comes from a source so close to
the stae's chief executive tina tit can
not be disputed, although the COVER
nor himself has nothing to say for
publication on the subject.
Governor Johnson abhors the inf1ic-
ton Of the death penalty. He be-
lieves it's present sanction in most of
the states chief executive that it can
survival of a relic of the past, and the
sooner it is done away with the bet
ter.
IF 1 as governor personally had to
aid in the execution of a condemned
man. he is said to have recently re-
marked to a friend, Il would resign
my office in preference to carrying out
such a duty" And he doubtless
meant what he said, for his expert
ence with executions has been any.
thing but pleasant.
Hates Hanging Business.
The governor has just finished an
investigation of the hanging of Will
lam Williams in the Ramsey county
Jail by Sheriff Anton Miesen. The
gruesome story that the rope holding
the swaying body of the condemned
man had to be helped up by deputies
because the rope was too long, while
the man strangled, grated on the COVER
nors nerves. He found, however, that
the letter of the law had been carried
out by the sheriff, so no. further ac-
ton will be taken.
The proposition to pass anti-capital
punishment legislation in Minnesota is
not new. At the last session a bill
to abolish the death sentence was
fathered in the house by Representa-
tive John Lund, of Minneapolis, and
though the measure was strongly ad-
vocated by the author and a number
of friends of the idea, it failed to pass.
Doubtless with a strong recommends
ton Of the states chief executive,
bill to abolish capital punishment
would have much better chance of be-
coming a law.

To Own Railroads.

TOXIC, March 6.-Within five years
all the railroads in Japan will be own
ed by the state. The passage by the
imperial diet of the naturalization bill,
of which the foregoing is the latest
modification, is believed to be assured.
Financiers figure that the cost to the
country of taking over the lines will
be about $250,00O,OO0, which naturally
will largely increase taxes until the
earnings of the roads can be applied
to reducing the burdens.
The cabinet is not in accord on the
question and the resignation of Count
KatO, the foreign minister, is looked
for.

HOW TO CONQUER CRIME
Committed by Whole

CHICAGO, Ill, March 6.-Elmer
a generation ago and retired chief OF
the United States secret service, has
ton of lawlessness that now holds
Chicago in it's grasp. The chief cause
with the city, the practice Of the may
ors deciding for themselvec what laws
they will enforce and what they will
not, each becoming practically law
unto himself with the supine acquies-
cence of the public, except on isolated
occasions when it becomes stirred on
some special subject. While reform OF
this deep-rooted evil is difficult, Mr..
Washburn hopes for man who will
undertake this task inteligently and
fearlessly. and who will proceed on the
somewhat old-fashioned but neverthe-
less sound theory that strict law en-
forcement means order and security
for the community
Meantime, in suggesting more spe-
cific measures, Mr.. Washburn advo-
Gates complete reorganization of the
police department as more effective
than an increased number of patrol
men, although he would have also as
many of them as the city can afford.
He regards an efficient detective force
as the real deterrent of crime, as Grim
nals all fear blow in the dark and
give a wide berth to places where
crime is skilfully hunted down.
Capture of clever criminals rests
with the detectives and not with the
uniformed patrolmen. In order to give
real efficiency to a detective force the
chief of police must have at his COM
mand a sufficient secret service fund
him to buy information without plac-
ing his department under any obliga-
through promises of immunity given to
secure evidence.
The absolute uselessness of police
shake-ups is emphasized as a dis
honest patrolman is a menace any.
