SEEKS ALL THE FACTS
Officers Friends Say Fight Was
Caused by Efforts of Shipbuilding
Company to Reach" Him.
SEEKS ALL THE FACTS

Further Investigation into aspects Of
| the case Of Lieut.. Com. Charles r. Hun,
| not fully developed at the trial Of that
officer by a court-martial at Norfolk,
Va. last month. will be made by Sec
| rotary of the -.ayy Daniels.
The Secretary is anxious to learn
| what facts. IL any. lie behind assertions
by HUNS friends that his encounter with
J. Philip kiesecker. which brought on
his trial by a naval court. was really
the result of attempts by officials of
the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry
dock Company. to induce Com. Hun To
be less rigid In his inspections Of the
company's work on the new battlesh'p
Texas. Com. Hun was then acting as
inspector Of ordnance material for the
Texas. and his friends asserted that be-
cause of his efficient service TO the gov
ernment, the company was under extra
expense. Kiesecker. they said, as head Of
the correspondence division Of the COM
pany. was designated to reach" Hun.
Reference to Company.
In the trial IF Commander Hun only
one reference to this situation was made
and this was by Commander f. R. Pol
lock, who acted as Huffs counsel. Not
a word was placed in evidence regarding
the relations between Hun and the COM
pany or the possibility OF these relations
tween Hun and Kiesecker. The defense
OF Hun was no, I'm any way rested on
this aspect Of the case Commander Pol
locks sole reference TO the situation was
as follows:
''Huff's efficient work In behalf of the
government was costing the Newport
News shipbuilding and Drydock Company
5000 a day, as he was holding up the
acceptance nf the Texas"
n iG likely hal in do
tary Daniels Will write to Commander
Pollock and ask him IL by this statement
he meant to insinuate that the shipbuild-
ing company was behind the apparent ef-
forts of Eiesecker to establish friendly
social relations with Commander and
Mrs Hun which led to the fstic en-
counter between the two men
HUI was reduced five numbers in rank
and given reprimand by the court
martial.
Result of Resentment.
The testimony in the Hum trial, which
was limited to the facts bearing directly
on the circumstances of the encounter
between the naval officer and the civil
ian. indicates that the fight was merely
the result Of Commander Huff's resent
ment OF what he considered the undue
attentions paid him and Mrs Hun by
Kiesecker. Commander Hum testified
that from the first he dislked Kiesecker
and regarded him as one with whom he
wished to have no relations. He said
on the stand:
There is not the slightest doubt in
my own mind that EifsckeT knew he
was personally Questionable TO me, for |

CITY DELIVERY TO
BEGIN OCTOBER |

Postmaster Collins has been very
anxious to bring about the early in
stallation of city mail delivery, which
has been delayed considerably beyond
his expectations. He consequently
took up the matter with Congressman
kettner, and this morning he received
{. dispatch from Mr. Kettner saying
delivery has been authorized to be
gin October /.
Nj. Collins says there is a good
deal of preparatory work to be done
before the delivery can be set in mo-
ton, and one of the first steps is to
make up delivery directory, and in
the making of this it win be neces
sary for the people to call at the
rostoffice and sign notice of their
intention to have their mail delivered
and furnish their street number.
Another thing will be the need for
notifying ali correspondents to send
mail addressed to the street number,
and such notices should be sent out
some little time before the delivery
becomes effective.

Solving the Timber Problem.

Rochester Union and Advertiser.
Within the last twenty-five years
there has been steadily growing CON
viction that this country is destined
TO be danuded of timber unless the
most thoroughly effective measures Of
conservation and reforestation are
taken by the government A greaI
deal has already been done toward
saving the timber, but much yet re-
mains to be done.
1t is interesting to learn, as we do
from statistics issued from the de-
bartment of commerce at Washing
ton, that there are some 10000 square
miles of timber standing in the Phil
ippines, of which two-thirds is virgin
forest. The commercial output Of
lumber in the islands has been stead
lily increasing and has practically
quadrupled in the last seven years,
amounting to over 112,000,000 board
feet in 1913.
In order to realize what these fig
ures mean it is necessary to consider
that 10000 square miles is about one
fiftiesk of the continental area Of the
United States. How large q proper
tion Of this great area of timber in
the Philippines is yielding a product
desirable for market we do not know,
but il is well known that there are
hard woods in the islands in great
abundance, many of which are of COM
mercial value. 1t seems highly i'm
rortant that the timber industry of
the i@iands should be developed. The
director of forestry estimates the
amount of timber that could be re-
moved annually without diminishing
the productivity of the forests at ten
times the present output. Capital Is
the principal factor necessary to de-
velop the industry.
There are, of course, some obstacles
to the development of the timber IL
Gust:y in the Philippines, one of which
is The cost of shipment to the i'm
portant markets of the world. But as
the timebr supply elsewhere is dimin- |
ished by increased consumption from
year 30 year this obstacle will become
a less serious one, for prices will un- |
doubtedly advance. 1t probably will |
not be many years before there will
be large amount of American capi-
tai invested in the timber industry in I
the Philippines.

CHEROKEE TRIBE DISSOLVED;
WORK TAKES TWELVE YEARS

New York, July 14.-Another step
ir the gradual making over of the In
dians into ordinary Americans was
taken June 30, when the Cherokee
hation was dissolved as a tribal en-
tity. With this action there passes
out the largest of the five civilized
tribes, and the most advanced ma
tive American race that the conti-
nent has seen since the Spaniards
wiped out the empires of the Incas
and the Aztecs.
The Cherokees of today have no
more right, perhaps, to be called a
native American race than the Mex
leans or some of the South American
nations, for the tribe is full of de-
scendants Of white men, mostly mis-
sionaries and British traders, who
married into it in the eighteenth cen
tury, as well as Of squawmen, who
have been taken in since the Cherokces
settled in what used to be known as
the Indian territory, now Oklahoma.
Indeed, competent ethnographers
have gone so far as to declare that
there is not single full-blooded Cher
ckee left.
Dissolution Takes Dozen Years.
The process of dissolution began
nearly dozen years ago, when the
Cherokees signed treaty with the
United States government agreeing
Is dist ii bsta4tia,l OF tffeir-lant
They were the last of the five civil
lized tribes to consent to this, and
even after the agreement was made
the procedure was necessarily slow
because of the large number of tribes
men and the vast extent of their hold
ings. In 1906 The legislative and iu-
dicial departments of the tribal gov
crnment went out of existence, but
the executive branch continued under
the leadership of Chief w. C. Rogers,
who vas elected in 1904 and contln-
led leader by presidential appoint
ment after the act which abolished
the tribal offices. Assisting Mr.. Rog
ers we're a national attorney, su-
rerintendent of education, and q
large number of officials, who were
busy with the distribution of the
land.
The process was still further re-
tardcd by the question as to whethet
the 5e10 babies born into the tribe
between 1902 and the breakup of most
of the tribal government in 1906
should be admitted to the distribu-
