NAVAL SCANDALS
PARLIAMENTARY COMMISSIONER
MAKES EXPOSURE OF FLEETS
CONDITION.
Disorder and. Red Tape--After Six
Hour Battle Ships Would Be I'm
able to Replenish Supplies.

PARIS, JUNE 25.-The report Of
the parliamentary commission which
Investigated the naval scandals in
France has been turned in. 1t is
a scathing condemnation of the naval
administration for the past ten years,
and it makes an astounding exposure
of the deplorable condition Of the
fleet for which France has spent $780,
100000 since 1899.
The $50 pages of the report are
filed with details of the inefficiency
resulting from coJfusion and rem
tape, conditions that make French
naval construction cost 25 per cent.
more than English or German. AS an
evidence of these methods it is point
ed out that castiron shells of large
calibre, condemned after the accident
to the battleship Iona, continued to
be manufactured in larger quantities
than ever for two whole years.
The Paris, the Republique a,&other
ships of this class were found equipped
with secondary guns of a model or
1885 instead of 1902, as the srecifica-
lions required. Neither the ammuni'
ton nor the guns for the six ships OF
the Danton type, to be completed in
1911, will be ready before 1914, ard
France has not a single drydock
capable of accommodating these YES
sells when they are finished.
Perhaps the gravest feature Of the
exposure is the lack of reserve coal
and ammunition supplies at The vari-
GUS ports and arsenals. One officer
testified before the commission that
at the end of naval battle Of six
hours the ships would find it impos-
sible to replenish and would be virtu-
stuallv out of commission.
The commission recommends the
complete reorganization of the depart
ment, the elimination of red tape and
the distribution of responsibility. l.
insists especially upon the creation
of a department of construction and
equipment entirely separate from the
general staff.

long as the blood remains free from
infection we are apt to escape dis
ease, but any impurity, humor or
poison acts injuriously on the Sys-
tenn and affects the general health.
Pustular eruptions, pimples,
rssheS, and the various skin affec-
tons, show that the blood is in a
feverish condition as result of
some humor, or the presence Of an
irritating, fiery acid. Rheumatism
comes from an excess of uric acid

Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake of other suffer-
ing women / am willing to make my
trouble public so you may publish
this letter." -MRs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RED, Graniteville, vt.
No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such a record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, Indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
1t costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs. Barclay says, it is "worth noun
tains of gold I" to suffering women.

METAL TRADE PROSPEROUS.

PTTTSBURG, June 25.-Evidence OF
prosperity in the pig iron and steel In
dustry unequaled for the past six
months is the announcement made
Thursday by Pittsburg concern that
a deal has been consumated for the
sale of 6.0O0 tons Of basic iron for i'm
mediate delivery at an advance over
the prices of thirty days ago. A gen
eral advance from fifteen to twenty
five cents a ton on the price Of basic
and Bessmer pig iron has already
been made.
Reports show that Pittsburg blast
furnaces producing pig iron are run
ming about 80 per cent. capacity and
furnaces making steel are running
about 50 per cent. capacity. This is
more than double the production for
the same period last year.
There are more blast furnaces run
ling at present than at any time since
October, 1907. |

BRANDENBURe ON THE STAND.
swears Positively That Grover cleve-
land Signed the Letter.

NEW YORK, June 25.-9roughton
Brandenburg in his own defense
Thursday related the history If the
preparation of the Grover Cleveland
article, the sale of which to the New
York Times led to the arrest of Bran
denburg on the charge of grand lar
ceny. He said he interviewed MI.
Cleveland for the New York Herald
slime time between February 10 and
March A, 1908. During a subsequent
talk with Mr. Cleveland Brandenburg
said he suggested to the ex-president
that he prepare a series of three po-
litical articles and allow Brandenburg
to sell them, to be published just be-
fore the election.
The witness said he offered Mr.
Cleveland $4,000 for the series. Or
March 8, Brandenburg called at Mr..
Cleveland's office and received from
him a scattered mass of material fiji
teen or eighteen groups of papers ut
four or five sheets each. The con-
tents of these sheets was made into
the article signed Grover Cleveland.
Brandenburg said he transcribed them
himself and Mr.. Cleveland made cor
rections in them. The sheets were
again transcribed.
The first drafts of the article were
shown to Mr.. Baker, of Everybody S
magazine, Brandenburg said. His
next and last interview with Mr.. Cleve-
land was between the twelfth and six
teenth of March. On this occasion, the
witness said, Cleveland complained
of feeling i'll and did not care to dis
cuss the matter. Brandenburg, how
ever, placed a carbon copy of the ar
ticle before the ex-president, and laid
the corrected drafts and wellow sheets
on the table.
81 read the whole article over TO
him." Brandenburg testified. He
then took the article from me and
looked it over casually, with pen
in his hand which was continually
dipped in the ink. He made no cor
rections and when he was through
he signed the last page of the carbon
copy and did not blot the signature,
but allowed it to dry"
Bradenburg was shown the alleged
Cleveland signature in evidence anu
declared it was not the signature Mr..
Cleveland affixed to the article.
"This is heavier than the sigma
ture Mr.. Cleveland wrote and in the
~ he wrote there was a flaw, so that
the ink came through the paper, max
ing a spot the size of pin head,
Brandenburg declared. He said ne
had never seen the signature in evil
dence alleged to have been clipped

FEAR CORPORATION PUBLICITY.
Concerns Oppose New Tax Law Be-
cause Rivals May Learn Secrets.


WASHINGTON, June 25.-It is no.
ticeable that several corporation men
are now in Washington who were not
here last week when President Taft
sent his special message to congress
urging 2 per cent tax on the net
earnings of corporations. They are
not saying anything against the tax
as a tax, but they express their opin
ion of the proposal to supervise them,
the so-called publicity features OF
the bill in forceful language.
It is the possibility of having a
cloud of "$1, 200 inspectors" as one OF
the corporation men put 1t, coming
won on them at unexpected and incon-
venient intervals to audit their books
and overhaul their btsiness, "and then
for 5000 tell our rivals all about it,
that is making these men tear their
hair.

New Theater-which was founded by
thirty representative citizens OF New

founders, with their guests and families,
filled the boxes. the foyer stalls and most
of the orchestra seats. The season Will

.BALLINGER GIVES LIE To CLAWS
CHARGES ARE TISSUE OF
FALsEHooD," HE SAYS.
Denounces Magazine Printing Lat
est Accusation-Tells Of
Fake" Photograph.

Secretary Richard A. Ballinger Of the
Department of the Interior this after
noon issued the following statement:
MY attention has been directed to the
text of an article purporting to have been
written by l.. R. CLAWS, which is to ap-
pear in Golfers Weekly, and advance
copies Of which have been furnished by
that weekly to the press.
THE CLAWS story is a tissue Of false
hood and insinuations utterly unwar-
ranted, in view of the facts easily OBJ
tained by anybody who wants them.
''It is not surprising that a pubiica-
tio.. which could, in pursuit OF this same
propaganda, recklessly, under date OF
October 30, reproduce a view appearing
on a familiar railroad folder of the Grand
river canyon in Colorado as a picture OF
an available power-site which was in
danger of unlawful acquisition on the
South Platte river. 200 miles away. and
across the continental divide, should be
willing, without the slightest effort to as
certain the real facts, to give wings to a
story which had heretofore been submit
ted to SO great and just man as the
President of the United States, who. after
a most careful consideration thereof. in
which he had before him the entire files
of the general land Office and Of the Sec
retary of the Interior, relating to each
any every one of the matters presented
pronounced the same disingenuous and
without justification.
THE statement of CLAWS has gained
nothing either as to its veracity or justi-
fication in the interval since it's presenta-
ton to the President. In view Of the COM
plete vindication by the President of my
self and the other officers of the depart
ment concerned, L will make no further
statement at present"

SIX OVERCOME BY SMOKE
TENANTS IN NIGHT ROBES ES-
CAPE OVER ROOF.
Double Tenement in Brooklyn on
Fire-Lower Floors
Burned Out.

Special Dispatch to The Star - d
NEW YORK, November 9.-Six tene-
ment dwellers had a close call in a
fire which swept through the lower floors
of the double tenement at 425 and 427
Gates avenue, Brooklyn. early today.
Firemen, breaking into the apartment
of Arthur Mcconnell. on the fourth floor,
found Mcconnell, his wife and four little
daughters all overcome by smoke. The
entire family had to be carried out, up
the fire escape to the roof, and down
through the scuttle of the house adjoin-
ing.
The fire had already made such head
way when it was discovered that the
tenants were all forced to escape in this
manner. They did not stop to slip
on any clothing, but made for the fire
escapes at the first alarm.
Finding the iron balconies on the first
floor already swept by the fire. they ran
up to the roof and then ran down to the
street through the next house, where
they stood about. .shivering, as their
household goods went up in smoke.
Neighbors finally persuaded them to
take shelter in nearby houses.

PELLAGRA AND HOOKWORM.
Both Maladies to Be Discussed by
Southern Medical Association.

NEW ORLEANS, November 9-With
more than 800 physicians from all parts
of the south in attendance, the third an
nual meeting Of the southern medical as
sociation convened here today for a meet
ing Of three days.
The convention will discuss both pei
lagra and the hOokworm disease.
DIR. Giles G.. Savage, president of the
association. said today he believed pei
lagra is not due to the eating of musty
corn. but is purely a disease of the nerve
centers.
Il hope the association will express its
cordial Endorsement Of the generosity of
Messrs. Carnegie and Rockefeller and
Mrs Russell Sage for their gifts in the
suppression of the disease of consump-
ton. the hookworm and peliagra.
IL have no patience with those persons
who are objecting to the acceptance of
the money on the ground that northern
people are meddling in southern affairs. "
