Mayville, N. Y, Jan 16.--Edward
Beardsley, the Summerville farmer,
who for three days has defed the ef-
forts of sheriff's posse to get him
out of his farm house fortress, still
held his own today, with every pros
pect of continuing the siege until
forced to capitulate by starvation. No
one knows the extent Of Beardsley's
food supply.
Sheriff Anderson Of Chautauqua
county, commanding the attacking
force, has abandoned his proposed as
saults on the house through fear Of in
juring innocent members of the, family
or sacrificing the lives OF his deputies.
Besides Beardsley there are in the
house Mrs. Beardsley and nine chill
dren. OF whom the oldest is seven
years. Their reported plight led to the
visit of J. W. Putnam, overseer of the
poor Tuesday and it was while he was
preparing to take them to an institu-
ton that Beardsley fired the shots that
are today reported likely to prove
fatal.
A ruse to draw Beardsley out OF his
barricaded stronghold early today
failed because the entrenched farmer
suspected g. trick. Sheriff Anderson
and his company withdrew out of
sight and William Walker and Tim
othy Van Cise the only two men who
have been able TO approach the house
since the siege began, went up to the
house to offer to aid Beardsiey to es-
cape. Beardsley covered both men with
a rifle. Van Cise and Walker kept their
hands elevated. Van Cise went over
his plan in detail. Beardsley laughed
at him.

Van Cise explained that he had a

toxicated and bereft of their senses In
order to incur court martial. The least
departure from perfect sobriety IL
nowadays made a subject of disciplin-
airy action, and the consequence Is that
many officers prefer to be known as
total abstainers rather than that any
momentary excitement, any departure
in one word from their normal manner
and frame of mind, should be unjustly
ascribed to stimulants.
Then. too. the modern warship Is
the most complicated piece OF machin-
cry in existence Practically every
thing is done by electricity. The con.
ming tower, or the cabin from which
the captain directs every movement
of the ship, has its walls literally COW
cred with electric push buttons and
small levers. 1t Is necessary that
every faculty Of the human brain
should be keenly alert and sharpened
to the finest point to know just what
button or lever to touch in a moment
of emergency. since the slightest mis-
take might result in an appalling ca
tastrophe, with the destruction Of the
lives of all the crew of 600 to 800 men.
The responsibility Is overwhelming.
1t is not only ones own career and
life that hang in the balance, but the
fate of the ship. representing cost
of perhaps as much as $10,00O,000. and
the existence of all ones fellow crea-
lures on board. Men who have to
shoulder this risk do not dare to drink.
The risk is too appalling. They alb
stain from stimulants of their own
initiative. They do not need any such
edict as that issued by Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels to keep them from
drinking.
Emperor William. who since his &C.
cession to the throne. twenty-six years
ago, has not only endowed Germany
with magnificent fleet, but has raised
her from almost the very lowest place
on the list of the naval powers of the
world to the second place. next to
Great Britain and ahead of the United
States, France. Italy and Japan. may
be trusted to know something about
naval matters and naval men. Yet the
kaiser has contented himself with
warmly recommending total absti-
uence in the German navy. He has
carefully refrained from issuing any
orders on the subject. He merely
points out the advantages Of extreme
temperance on shipboard. Since off,

The queen laughingly consented to

so as to permit of access to the grog

she expressed her approval Of its taste.

of the navy. prohibiting not only the
drinking but even the presence of al.

All of the influence of Queen Victoria

of temperance, Edward VII following
in her footsteps in this respect, and its
efficacy can be realized by a compari.

the fury Of the elements. especially In
winter time, spirits are often q mat
ter of vital necessity as q restorative
after extreme exhaustion or exposure.
In the navies of France. Italy. Spain
and Austria the men get their daily
ration of spirits, while wine is served
on all the mess tables of the officers.
There is no heavy drinking on board.
and comparatively little on shore. the
people of the wine-drinking Latin
countries of Europe being q sober
race. Though inebriety on the part
of officers is very severely punished. 1t
is rare that one hears of any Of them
being courtmartialed for an offense Of
this kind. The only excess in this line
that / can recall on the part OF naval
officers of any European power were
those which so seriously handicapped
the armada of poor Admiral Rozjest-
vensky on its memorable voyage from
the Baltic to final destruction in Jap
anese waters by Admiral Togo In 1905.
No small share of the responsibility
of that memorable disaster was due
to the widely known and widely dis
cussed intemperance Of most Of the
officers of the Inflated Russian feet
The only warships that are run on
