Hoodoo on The Nebraska.

the Navy Department will do so as
soon as the full reports OF the accident
arrive In Washington.
For weeks the Nebraska has been
known as the unhappiest ship on the
navy. Some officers have come TO
dread her as they did the Texas for
her hoodoos. She made a miserable
showing In target practice, as COM
pared with some OF the other battle
Snaps. Her officers were called upon
TO explain, whereas other ships were
complimented. Lieut.. u. s. Macy, an
ordnance officer, was In immediate
charge OF this feature OF the ships
work. In order 10 Justify himself he
wrote a letter. addressed to the Navy
Department, explaining that the low
score was due to a practical state OF
mutiny abroad the ship. and saying
other things that were not very COM
plimentary TO the commander.
That letter got no further than Rear
Admiral Schroeder. He ordered a
eourt-martial of Lieut.. Macy, who was
acquitted. He was transferred to the
Texas, but was finally rescued from
that ship and sent by Assistant Secre-
tary Winthrop to Minneapolis as re-
cruiting officer
