REAR ADMIRAL
SPOKE HIS MIND
Sir Percy Scott in Trouble Over
the Visit of the German
Kaiser to England.

London. Nov. 1O.-The German inn
perial yacht Hohenzollern. which is
bringing Emperor William and his par
tv 10 visit England and which was
expected to enter Sandown bay, Isle
of Wight. tonight, has been greatly de-
Iaved by a heavy fog, and has been
obliged to anchor with the cruisers es-
corting her for the night.
An extraordinary incident has come
to light in connection with the visit of
Emperor William. 1t is related that
at the conclusion of the recent man
euvers the channel fleet and the first
cruiser squadron We're ordered by the
admiralty TO repaint, etc, i'm honor of
the German emperor. Upon receipt of
this order, Sir Percy Scott, command
Ell of the cruiser squadron, sent the fol-
lowing signal to two of his vessels:
Paint work appears to be more in de-
mand than gurnery, so you had better
come in in time TO look pretty by the
sth inst"
Admiral Lord Charles BeresfOrd, in
n general order to the fleet repeating
the Instructions to repaint, refers to the
signal sent out by Sir Percy Scott as
"contemptuous in tone, ard insubordi-
nate in character" and orders Sir
Percy to have it stricken from the sig
nal logs.
Sir Percy Scott and the members of
his staff were summoned aboard Ad-
miral Beresfords flagship last Friday
and the admirars reprimand was read
TO them.
This affair has created CONSERVATION
in the fleet, and there is a probability
that it will lead to the resignation of
Sir Percy.
Rear Admiral Sir Percy Scott il
probably the best VerSed officer III
Eunnery in the British navy. and lie .
; we'll known as the man who saved
Iadysmith' in 1899. because he devised
u special carriage for siX-inch and Al
inch guns from the cruiser Terrible,
which he commanded at Durham, where
by these pieces We're carried by rail
into I.adysmith- just before its invest
ment by the Beers. Sir Percy was
noted III and about Durham, of which
port he was made commandant, for ais
blunt and direct statements.
Sir Percy commanded the gunnery
school of the royal navy in 1903-05, and
he has been director of naval target
practice. He was naval aid to King
Edward in 1903-5. He is the inventor
of The night signal apparatus now in

the proposed plan would embrace
the extension of the present limits
by beginning at point at the
northeast corner of the present cor
poration line and going north to
the road north OF the Dix and
Mason brick yard. thence straight
west to line just west of an imag-
mary north and south line taking in
the Cottage and Norris avenue ad-
ditions. This section Is well built
up and this will include the quar-
ry district and the Conley land,

This, of course is only a plan.
and affords some basis upon which
to proceed. There will undoubtedly
be many objections to this plan, but
the supporters of annexation believe
that a judicious compromise can be
reached which will accomplish the
desired result.
Under present conditions there are
any number Of houses outside the
corporation line. This Is particular
ly true of the West End. CAS- matters

and advantages that come from such

taxes for the benefits they derive.
Others have ben clamorng for side
walks for sewers, for electric light,
and gas, and under the annexation
plan many of these improvements
could he made by the city. In short

In these days of exter sion, ex-
pansion, formation of gigantic cor
porations and the acquisitions by
governments Of more territory, eth
strange that so progressive and up
to-date a town as Marion should
imbibe the spirit of annexation.
For some time there has been n
manifest desire on the part of at
least one member Of the city conn
Gil to extend the corporate limits
of this city. lie is backed in this
desire by many owners Of small
property who reside on the out
skirts and who have at various
times sought to have improvements
made in their section Of what they
claim should properly be the city.
At this time there is a we'll de-
fined plan on foot looking 10 the
annexation of considerable territory:
territory which, il brought within
the corporation limits would mean
the addition Of at least half mill
lion dollars 10 the Jax duplicate.
Up to this time matters have not
reached such an advanced stage
that any dGinite boundary lines
have been fixed for tho undertake
lug, and therefore all such plans
are necessarily more or less spccu-
lative.
