LAW LIMIT
APPLICATION TO AUTHORIZED
BATTLESHIP CONSTRUCTION,
Attorney General Decides It Covers
Only the Actual Work on
the Vessels.

Only the work actually done in the ship
yard on the battleship and colliers au-
thorized at the latest session of Congress
must be done in accordance with the
eight-hour law, according to an opinion
sent by Attorney General Wickersham to
the Navy Department in Interpretation
of the law.
Il think it is clear that the provision in
the naval appropriation act said At
torney General Wickersham, after quot
ing many authorities, must be construed
to apply simply to work done upon the
vessel itself at the place where it is built,
and not as applying to the manufacture
of machinery or other material elsewhere
which is to enter into the construction
of the vessel
Difference of Opinion Arose.
The question of the extent of the appli-
cation of the eight-hour law to the YES
sells authorized to be constructed arose
when the department began the prepara-
ton for specifications for bids. By some it
was urged that the law required even the
armor plate and such instruments as
compasses to be constructed by eight
hour labor. Secretary Meyer believed
that such construction would prohibit
the building of any of the vessels IN a
government navy yard
An effort was made to have the law
applied to the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany, which company, it was represent
ed, sometimes worked its men from
twelve to fourteen hours day. Ihe
Attorney Generals opinion shows that it
will not have any effect on the operations
at that plant in the manufacture OF ma
terial for the government.

Watching Continental Points.
Wireless From Mid-ocean.

Word was received here this afternoon
that wireless message had been re-
ceived at Liverpool from a steamer bound
for Canadian ports, and stating that it
had on board two passengers believed to
be DIR. Crippen and his typist, Miss Lee
neVe.
don for Montreal July L. is in mid
ocean today, while the Zaandyk, which
sailed from Hamburg July Is for the
same port, is nearer her destination. Be
tween the TWO probably, is the Cranian,
which left Rotterdam July IA for Halifax.
The Sardinian is equipped with Marconi
wireless. the other TWO are not listed as
wireless vessels

Think Sailing From France.

Ii appears that the detectives are salts
fed that Crippen and his companion fled
10 France and made close connections
with steamer sailing for Canada. They
had time in which TO do this before the
general alarm asking for their apprehen-
sion reached the police of foreign coun
tries.
From what port or upon what steamer
regular liner or tramp, the two are
thought to have sailed is not made known
II is also possible that they left from
port of Germany or Spain, or embarking
on the coast of France went first 10 the
United States and thence TO Canada. This
is less probable. however. as such route
would have required more time and they
could have hardly recahed the other side
of the Atlantic ahead of the watch that
had been placed for them.
The Canadian clue appears to have put
new life into the Crippen search today.
Watching Continental Points.
The police have been watching conti-
mental points and examining shipping
agents and others who come in touch
with transatlantic passengers. 1t is un-
derstood that from one of those inter-
viewed was received the information
which caused the hurried departure of
Inspector Dew for Canada.
Proba bility points to the Allan line
steamer Sicilian the vessel which the
police have in mind. The Sicilian sailed
from London July ., the day of Crippens S
disappearance, and from Havre July IL
for Montreal. She arrived at Montreal
last Thursday.
There is possibility. however. that
Crippen and the Leneve woman are
aboard a steamer sailing for Canadian
