MUCH MIS|NFORMATION
IN FREE SUGAR FIGHT
Senator Ransdcll Says People
Have Been Deceived
Cunningly.

That the friends of sugar are not
dishoartoned is evidenced by the de.
termincd preparations which have been
made for the fight III the senate. The
Los Angeles Tribune under date of
May carries the following special de
spatch from Washington, telling of the
situation:
'Legislntivc activities in the mat
ter of tariff will be transferred this
week from the house to the senate.
"Tbe fist step in the senate viii be

The Democrats have a majority of six
over all opposition. II looks as if the
Republicans aud the one Progressive,
PAndexter Of Washington, would all
oppose the hill. 1t viii be necessary
for Democrats to hold practically their
entire party strength in order to pass
the measure.
"Presidcut Wilson's supporters in
in the senate have invoked the caucus
to hold the Democratic senators in line.
The party whip will be cracked and
any Democratic reCaleitraut will be re-
garded as party traitor Some of the

WASHINGTON, May l4.-(Special
TO The Advertiser) )-Small credence
was given today to statements of navy
department officials, who, since the dis,
covery that the secret plans of the bat
tleship Pennsylvania have been stolen
from the department have minimized
the importance of the theft.
Secretary Daniels, however, has or.
dered that the thief be located, regard
less of expense, and already sleuths are
working desperately both inside and
outside the department to carry out his
orders.
II is now practically admitted that
the blue prints showed the whole plan
of electric wiring in the Pennsylvania
and are a complete exposition of the
battleship's system of fire control.
Secret service men in the case and
attaches of the navy department freely
admit that up TO the present they are
without clew to the thief or thieves
who coolly took the plans from the dc.
partment 3 drafting room. 1t is feared
the crime was the work of member
Of the department and, if this is the
case, have not ret been exposed. 1t
is feared that, in addition 10. the plans
stolen bodily, the most secret schemes
of the department may have been
copied and disposed of to some foreign
Power.
