WASHINGTON. July 22.-Rear Ad-
miral Washington Lee Capps. Uncle
Sans master shipbuilder. is to retire
as chief of the bureau Of construction
and repair Of the navy department
His resignation, approved BY Secre-
tary Meyer, is in the hands Of the
president, and there Is every indica-
ton that he is being forced out of the
navy. Rear Admiral Capps. at the age
OF forty-six. having achieved an en-
viable reputation as the man behind
the gum finds himself prompted TO
retire because as he himself declares.
he is not in entire accord with the re-
organization policy of the president
and Secretary Meyer. His frankness in
so stating his position has led the sec
rotary TO recommend that the resigna-
ton be accepted I'm conformity with
the best interests Of the naval service.
With the enforced retirement of Ad-
miral Caps, Secretary Meyer has re-
moved from the navy all effective op-
position to his reorganization plans.
Admiral Caps was the last and most
formidable of all the opponents of the
secretary's plans. His retirement
means also the definite defeat of the
staff officers in their fight against the
line officers and the complete triumph
and domination of naval matters by
the latter. In 1903, when Rear Admiral
Capps was less than forty, he stepped
over the heads of six other officers to
take the place of Rear Admiral Fran
els Tiffany Bowles as chief construct
or of the navy.
