BAD NAVAL CONDITIONS.
Admiral Evans Makes Blunt Remarks
About Congress.

Rear Admiral Evans is writing a series
of stirring articles on the American
Navy for Hamptons Broadway Maya
zine In the current number of the mag
azine Fighting Bob" tells of the prepa-
rations of the fleet for the great cruise,
and he handles Congress for its negli-
gence in true sailorman fashion The
admiral says;
The question of coal supply for the
feet was the most difficult one to handle.
The government owned but few col
liers not half enough to do the work
necessary, and the laws of Congress re-
quired that the coal to be used should be
carried in American bottoms, but there
were not American bottoms enough to
do the work and those that were avail
able put their prices at such a figure as
was practically prohibitive. This, how
ever, was a question which concerned the
navy department and not the command
er-in-chief and his sea-going officers
The itinerary of the cruise called for
about 100000 tons of coal to be delivered
In specified quantities at the following
ports: Trinidad, Rio de Janeiro, Sandy
Point, in the Straits of Magellan; Callao
Peru: and Magdalena Bay. on the coast
of Lower California. 1t was of vital inn
portance that this coal should be at the
points indicated water borne upon the
arrival of the fleet: that is, in some sort
of craft afoat, and that 1t should be
easily accessible, so that the fleet would
not be delayed unreasonably in getting
1t on board.
This coal question presented one of the
clearest possible practical illustrations or
want of preparedness for war on the part
of the government If our projected
cruise had not fortunately been of the
most peaceful nature, we should have
been seriously embarrassed and no doubt
much delayed, if indeed we had not been
compelled to give it up entirely. The
idea of naval force as strong as ours
without proper means of transporting its
supply of fuel in case of war, was any
thing but pleasing. and seemed to point
to a family organization on the part OF
the navy department. but such was not
the case. The fault did not lie at that
door: 1t lay at the doors of Congress
The officers of the navy and the navy
department had pointed out over and

over again the necessity for properly
constructed government Golfers. but Con-
gress had failed, so far to provide them.
This feature of our projected cruise was
commented upon most critically by all
foreign professional writer's. We were
compelled to use foreign bottoms, which
might not have been available to us In
time of war. However. as before stated.
this was not the business of the COM
mander-in-chief and his sea-going Off
GERS. but entirely that of the navy de-
partment where it was ably attended to.
Such a condition could not exist in any
first-cass foreign navy for the reason
that money is appropriated in a lump
sum and the responsible authorities spend
it in the way they think most essential
to efficiency. With us. Congress says
just how the money must be spent-not
tugboat- much less a collier, could be
bought or built without the express sane
ton of Congress-hence the responsibility
for this condition. and many things very
much worse should lie where 1t belongs
at the doors of Congress.
Imagine the British parliament under
taking to say what kind of steel should
be used in building a battleship and the
number and calibre of the guns on her
battery English naval officers would
smile at such proposition. We OF the
American navy. being differently brought
up, do not venture to smile at our leg
islators but we do sometimes wonder II
the way of our American lawmakers is
really the best.

KERN TAKES SHOT
AT Mr.. ROOSEVELT

Ellicott City, Md, September 24.-"Mr.
Roosevelt will find it quite impossible
by the raising of side issues and the
muddying of the water TO divert the
minds of the people from the questions
that must be decided by their votes in
November
In this language John w. Kern, the
democratic vice presidential candidate,
concluded a discussion of the last letter
of President Roosevelt to w. j. Bryan,
with reference to the charges made by
W. R. Hearst against Governor Haskell
of Oklahoma, treasurer of the democratic
national committee, in a speech here to-
night. He declared that the President
had abandoned his original charges
against Governor Haskell and had taken
up a criticism of his official acts to
cover his own embarrassment over his
failure to work reforms In his own
party.
Mr.. Roosevelts last illumination as
to Governor Haskell only proves that
his attack was premature and uncalled
for" said Mr.. Kern.

made upon the chief executive of SOW

HISGEN SATISFIED
WITH REVELATIONS

Oklahoma City, Okla, September "a
Thomas L.aJisgen, independent candidate
for President. addressed a large meet
ing tonight. He said, in part:
The revelations that have recently been
made in this campaign have thrown the
leaders of both the old parties into
fever of fear
Senator Foraker of Ohio was exposed
by our party. and he has gone to join
those other distinguished members of the
Down and Out club of senators-Platt.
Depew and Bailey.
7 expect to hear before many days of
the retirement from the national CAM
paign of another prominent citizen of the
country, and distinguished officer of this
state. I refer to Governor Haskell. on
whom the eyes of the country are resting
today.
Bryan cannot justify his pretense of
being a friend of the people and being
friend of organized labor, and of being
an enemy of the trusts while he allows
Haskell to remain an important officer in
the democratic national campaign"
