Veracity Question Makes Sensation.
The resignation of the first sea lord
Vice Admiral Sir Francis c. Bridge
man, whom Prince Louis of Batten-
berg succeeds, is followed by rumors
that all the sea lords have threatened
to resign. A question of veracity be-
tween the first lord of the admiralty
and Vice Admiral Bridgeman, which
has arisen, has caused sensation.
Mr.. Churchill, pressed by Lord Ber-
esford in the house of commons for
an explanation, declared that Vice Ad-
miral Bridgeman's retirement was due
solely to his health, and on Mr..
Churchill's request. When the vice ad-
mlral was asked by a reporter if he
had retired on account of his health
he replied
My answer is in the negative"
Did First Lord Insist on Orders?
The friction is believed to have
been caused by Mr.. Churchill insisting
upon directing the details of the last
maneuvers against the advice of the
sea lords. There is considerable op-
position to Prince Louis of Battenberg
holding the highest position in the
navy on the same grounds that the
army long opposed the duke of Cam
bridge having the highest command,
namely, that it was given to him be-
cause he was member of the royal
family instead of for professional COM
potency.
The first lord and the leading lords
unquestionably are antagonistic. Some
liberals even express fear that the eff
ficiency of the navy may be leopard
lied on this account.
