NEWBERRY LOOKS 'EM OVER
COMPLIMENTS THE NAVAL
MILITIAMEN.
NAVAL
Now Back at His Desk and Won't
Say Whether He Dived
in Submarine.

Assistant Secretary Of the Navy New
berry, who was back at his desk in the
department this morning after inspecting
the Portsmouth On. H) and Boston navy
yards and visiting Gardners bay said he
was immensely pleased with the practice
cruise work of the naval militia Of New
Jersey. New York. Connecticut. Massa chu-
setts. Rhode Island and Maine. The shoot
ing was exceptionally meritorious, as the
men only have a week Of training each
year.
Mr. Newberry wants to see the time
when the naval militia will bear the same
relation to the navy as under recent
LEGISLATION, the land militia bears to the
army.
Saw the Davis Marvel.
Mr.. Newberry said he saw the test at
Fall River of the gun-torpedo invented by
Lieut.. Commander Cleland Davis. He
had not examined the results of the ex-
pertinent but everything apparently had
been carried out as Davis expected. Fur
ther information of the results of the ex-
pertinent must come from Commander
Davis. as the Navy Department would not
publicly criticise the invention, which is
not owned by the government, but by
Davis.
Assistant Secretary Newberry is also
much pleased with his inspection of the
submarines at Gardners bay. He ad-
mitted he had spent several hours in one
OF them, but wouldn't discuss the report
that he had followed the Presidents ex-
ample and dfved.
Such a Wary Bird.
LET those stories go for what they are
worth" he remarked. laughingly.
He said today that he had no fault to
find with the conditions of the navy yards
at Portsmouth and Boston and with the
prison ships at these points. having found
the sanitary and other conditions espe-
cially good.
Mr.. >ewberry does not expect to be
away from this city for any considerable
length of time during the remainder OF
the summer. but stick close to his desk.

SUBSTATI0N SITE IN DOUBT
MAJ. MORROW WOULD SUSPEND
COMMISSIONERS ORDER.
Location at 14th and Water Streets,
Once Approved, May Yet
Be Accepted.

Following formal protest made several
days ago by Wayne MacVeagh and F. D.
Kenney. attorneys for the Pennsylvania
railroad, against the recent order of the
District Commissioners that a site be Sc
lected for a substation in the southwest
somewhere between ~ and 7th streets.
Maj. Jay ]. Morrow, Engineer Commits
sioner, has made a motion that the order
be suspended until after the railroad COM
pany has been given an opportunity to
furnish plans for a station upon site at
14th and Water streets southwest.
The Commissioners once approved this
site. Because of certain delays and other
interferences they abandoned the idea and
decided to have the station located as or
dered
This change is not considered fair to the
railroad company. according to the attor-
neys. They contend that upon the
strength Of the formal approval by the
Commissioners of the Water street site
the company erected retaining and fOun-
dation walls and permanent station plat
forms at considerable cost and trouble.
In the event Of the Commissioners aban-
doning the site the company would suffer
a direct and absolutely unjust loss, 1t Is
set forth
MacVeagh and McKenney, in letter to
the Commissioners. express considerable
doubt as to the authority of the Commis-
sioners to revoke their first order and to
require the company to offer another site.
1t may not hold in the courts, these at
tOrneys say.
In making his motion Maj. Morrow ex-
planned that detailed plans for the station
at the Water street site have never been
submitted to his Office. and therefore it is
not known whether a station of proper
size and character as provided by the act
of Congress authorizing the station can
be so constructed. He has also made a
motion to the effect that the railroad COM
pany be notified by the Commissioners
that II such a station as desired by the
Commissioners and intended by Congress
can be erected at the 14th street site the
Commissioners will give their approval in
order that the work Of construction may
be started without further DELAY.

for the killing OF William E. Annis at the
Bayside Yacht Club last Saturday by

in the fact that Mrs Hams had filed a
suit against her husband the papers be-
ing served upon Capt Hams in New York
August 10
The fact that suit had been filed be-
came generally known today. In her suit
Mrs. Hams made sensational charges
against her husbands character. and at
the same time she demanded in her petit
ton that the case itself. an action for di-
vorce. be given a public hearing.
Father Tells Of Suit.
The report of the filing OF the suit
against Capt. Hams by his wife is con-
firmed by Charles H. Libbey OF Boston
and winthrop father OF Mrs. Hams.
1t is believed by Libbey and his daugh-
ter that Capt. Hams and his brother. T.
Jenkins Hams. concluded that Annis was
behind the bringing of the accusations
and that it was Annis who suggested TO
Mrs. Hams that the only way she could
clear herself of the charges preferred by
Capt. Hams in his divorce action was by
demanding that the case be tried In open
court.
In speaking of the case Libbey said that
his daughter had been subjected to the
greatest cruelty by Capt. Hams and that
she returned to her fathers home June 2.
few days after she had been cruelty
beaten and ill-treated by her husband in
the presence of his brother. Thornton.
Badly Beaten by Hams.
According to Lbbey. Capt. Hains at
tackled his wife at Fort Hamilton last
May. and as a result Of the beating he il
alleged to have given her. medical aid had
to be called in. her body having been
covered with cuts and bruises.
Mrs Hams and her mother are still in
New York and are not expected in Win
throp for several days. 1t is the desire
to secure the control of the three children
of Capt. and Mrs. Hams and they are
prepared to resort to legal measures to
bring this about.
