FORTY MARINES

Of Navy.
BY Leased Wire to The Tribune.


NEW YORK. July S.-About one-tenth
OF all the marines stationed at the navy
yard, forty TO be exact. have deserted
They are part OF a batch OF $50 that came
back from Guantanamo two weeks ago.
Dissatisfaction with the treatment they
received while there and the fact that the
navy yard neymaster held up their pay
until after July 4 arc supposed to be the
chief causes OF their desertion.
For dinner on July they only had
OF pie, which they did not think was much
of a holiday dinner.
Over on the receiving ship Hancock the
jacktcs had turkey. Ice cream, fruit lem
onade and cigars, and when the marines
heard about that they got pretty angry.
Moreover. they don't like the way they
have been drilled during the hot weather.
They say there have been four drills a
day.
WIN they were paid Off on July four
commissioned officers and thirty-sfX
priyates took French leave and haven't
been heard OF since.

"SILENT" MOTOR ADOPTED
BY MOTORCYCLE MAKERS

Within the last week leading mo,
torcycle company has adopted the
Silent Knight motor. This motor has
been in use several years in Europe,
but this is the first American factory
to adopt it. Externally the new engine
is very similar TO the ordinary motor,
except that there are no outside work
ing parts-everything is inside the en-
CINE itself. Instead of poppet valves
there are two "sleeves' inside each
cylinder. The motor is almost silent.
The struggle of Charles Y. Knight
for the recognition of his patent, and
his ultimate success, the wonderful per.
sistencc and tenacity shown by him in
his fight year after year for recog-
pition, will probably go down in his
tory as one Of the most spectacular
stories of American inventive genius.
