dealer. has expired. and the contract for
the construction work will be awarded

All OF the buildings will contain
three stories. the first floor be-
ing fitted out as salesrooms, and the
two upper floors as modern office suites
The plans will necessitate not only the
tearing down OF the entire fronts Of the
buildings, but the remodelling of the
interiors as well.

MEYER PLANS NEW
NAVY YARD SYSTEM
Recent Shortage Shows Pres
ent Methods Faulty.

The reported 100000 discrepancy in
the accounts at the Washington Navy
Yard illustrates the importance to the
navy OF changes in methods of account
ing introduced by Secretary Meyer says
a statement issued yesterday by the Navy
Department
With new methods of accounts it was
necessary TO open the books with careful
inventories The old books showed stock
on hand OF over $1,000, 600 more than could
be found. 1t was believed this was an
error OF the books.
One error found was the failure to write
off the books the value of the batteries
of the Florida and Utah. worth $500, COO
Other accounts traced have reduced the
total shortage so far to about 1926. 900.
The statement asserts that a new sys-
TEN OF navy yard accounting will be
introduced. The colossal blunders found
in the books of the Washington yard
have forced an acknowledgment that the
present system IS faulty.

meanwhile for its tender mercies.
The traditions are consistently main

economic monster that has displaced the
octopus. the tip of whose tail was said
to be in the Pacific Ocean, whose head
