stroyers and three submarines for the

The secretary says the navy was
never in such a high state of efficiency
as today, and that in considering its
future needs. he has given less thought
to the guns than to the men behind
the guns. Believing that the efficiency
of the navy as a fighting force win be

adoption of a serious and systematic
course of instruction absard snip rath.

MEXICAN MINERS CHARGED
WITH AIDIi.G DESPERATE
Men Employed In Bingham Mine Said
% Be In Plot to Aid Rafael
Lopez TO Escape.

bingham. Utah.-It is reported here
that Mexican miners have been sup
plying Rafael Lopez with food and
comforts during his stay In the Apex
mine. and have been endeavoring to
raise a purse to aid him Ia getting
out OF the country In case he leaves
the mine. His presence there at a
recent date has been almost absolute
ly confirmed. This Is the information
given the sherin's forces by Pinker-
ton detectives working In the mine.
The information does not indicate
that Lopez was In the mine during
the past week. II was simply to the
effect that during the early occupancy
OF the mine by Rafael Lopez, food was
supplied him by his c~ountrymen. and
that a movement VA IN foot among
miners OF hat nationality to raise a
800 purse for him. The Pinkerton
operatives were employed as miners
and say they associated intimately
with Mexican laborcrs.
IL has been decided by the sherin's
force TO bulkhead the stope in the
Andy tunnel nea the scene OF the
shooting OF J. Douglas Hulsey and
Tom Mandervlch. where Lopez Is re-
ported TO be. The bulkheading OF
this stope will serve to limit the
workings OF the mine TO which Lopez
Will then have access, to four miles.
Believing hat by thus circumscrib.
Ing the limit OF L0pez's activities,
those who are familiar with the mine,
say that this would result In the ulti
