NAVY'S WORK ECONOMICAL
Admiral Griffen Says it Can Build
Ships as Cheap as Any Outfit,
ASKS MORE WIRELESS STATIONS
chief Engineer OF sea Fighters
Wants Half Mutton for -Four
New Radio Plants at PAM
ANA aud Pacific Points.

WASHINGTON. Dec. g. 80 Excessive
work Of the Navy department as COM
pared with that OF private firms are
dissipated by Admiral r. S. Griffin, chief
of the bureau of engineers OF the navy
department. in his annual report today.
He points to the fact that the engines
for the great dreadnought New York
were quickly constructed at the New
York navy yard at cost slightly less
than they could have been procured by
contract and the workmanship was un-
excelied. Even more satisfactory results
were obtained on the Pacific coast. for
the Mare Island navy yard completed the
machinery for the gunboats Monocacy
and Palos well within the estimate and
the final cost was little more than two
thirds of the amount bid by private
firms. At Norfolk the manufacture Of
gasoline engines has been continued with
the most satisfactory results as to cost
and efficiency 81 operation.
Important improvements In radio-tele-
graphy has involved the substitution of a
large amount Of new apparatus for the
older installations on shipboard. Sub
stential reductions have been effected in
the cost OF this apparatus. although its
efficiency has been greatly increased.
Wants New Wireless stations,
Admiral Griffin saws that the use OF
radio to the limit OF its apparent posi-
bilities for naval purposes involves tech
meal problems OF difficult order. These
do not occur in commercial practices and
must remain unsolved unless the navy
undertakes the task. Otherwise he
points out II will remain in the rear Of
developments of wireless telegraphy as
established by the practice of other mill
tary powers. The history OF the Ameri-
can navy shows that It has been in the
very forefront up to the time in develop
ment OF radio telegraphy as was shown
by the building of the Arlington station,
the development of plans for other great
high powered station; the adoption OF
arc apparatus and other details OF great
importance. Not a single mistake has
been made in this direction, according to
Admiral Griffin, who asks for an addi-
tionaI allotment of 10000 for the four
high powered stations TO be erected on
the isthmus OF Panama the Hawaiian
Islands. the California coast and the
Philippines.
The bureau has not yet been able to
determine the advantage to be derived
from the storage of coal under water.
For three years these tests have been
going on at New London without SO far
developing any marked difference in
value between coal in the open, under
cover and under water.

whom got separated and only found one

"Morganthau was determined 70 have
his own way. The treatment he wit
messed provoked his anger and stimulated
his determination to make the Turks re-
spect his wishes. The next morning Il
was learned he had formally advised the
Turkish government unless the British
colony was allowed TO leave that vcrS
day he would demand his passports and
take every one away on his own special
train "a his private guests.
This action the Turks did not bargain
for. They certainly did not desire TO g.
to war with America as well. They Inn
medistely caved in and the ambassador
won the day.
The American ambassadors efforts
did not end with dispatching a special
train. He has since assisted In sending
away several Britishers who had beer.
