Finds Big Shortage In Navy Yard.


Secretary OF the Navy Meyer has re
ceived a report from the Washington
navy yard, showing a shortage of So,
2SS,270 between the mate ial actually
on hand and the amount on the books
As a complete inven,ory had not
been taken Tor more than twenty-five
years. Nh Meyer directed that the
general stQekeeper of the yard make
a complete record of all material on
hand, which showed the large discrep
ancy.
Mr.. Meyer says that in his opinion
this shortage is due to the improper
accounting system, under which ma
terial was issued without obtaining
an invoice in return. During the Span
ish war, tor instance, there were many
rush orders, and ordnance material
was often sent to the vessels Of the
fleet without its transfer being record
ed on the books of the yard.
Under the new accounting system,
according to the experts Of the navy
department such a shortage could not
occur.

Four persons perished at BenwOd
a suburb Of Wheeling, w. Va, as the
result of'a Black Hand outrage, when
a big frame tenement. housing forty

mand from the Black Hand for $500,
