The time IL near at hand when a
Secretary of the Navy can sit at his
desk In WASHINGTON and issue his
orders by word of mouth to the COM
manders Of the fleets In tho Atlantic
or the Pacific. This. In the opinion OF
wireless experts, was demonstrated
yesterday afternoon when Secretary
Daniels delivered the firse order by
wireless phone which has ever been
issued to a naval commander.
Shortly before I o'clock In the after
noon. notwithstanding that II was ono
OF the rush hours Of the day. when
tile atmosphere was disturbed by tho
usual disturbances incident to bust
ness and affairs. Secretary Daniels
communicated with ease over tho
wireless phops to Rear Admiral
Usher. commandant Of the New York
navy yard. Secretary Daniels sat at
his desk epd talked. and Rear Al
miral Usher sat at his desk.
Voices Heard Plainly.
The only caution issued to Secre-
tary Daniels by the experts was to
quit talking so loudly. lie obeyed
the admonition. after starting to talk
in too loud a tone. and kept hts voice
down " the low pitch Of an ordinary
ccnversation.
Secretary Daniels transmitted this
verbal order. which was taken down by
q stenographer In the office Of Rear
admiral Usher. and acknowledged verb
ally by the admiral himself:
Report as soon az practicable after
tho arrival of the New York how soon
the repairs recommended can he COM
pleted."
Secretary Daniels voice travelled six
and a half miles oyer the wire to the
Arlington radio stAtion, thence was
thrown through the ether 225 miles 10
the radio station of the Western Elec-
trio Company. in New York. thence was
carried six and one-half miles over a
wire to the office of Rear Admiral
Usher.
In exchanging preliminary greetings
with the admiral. Secretary Daniels told
him:
II can hear you as plainly As II you
were In this room"
Other Stations Listen.
The office OF the Secretary was
thronsed with prominent naval officers
and civilian spectators. Secretary Lam
sing was one Of those present.
Admiral Usher said the tones Of the
voice Of the Secretary were plainly
audible, despite a heavy static discharge
which sounded like thunder. The re-
ceipt OF the message was confirmed
over land wires.

that very few Omitted States passports
had been fraudulently obtained.
Ruroede has been under surveillance
by secret agents Of the department Of
justice for about six weeks. The de-
tectives learned it was said. that he
was in communication with German
reservists in all parts Of the country,
while he received many Of them every
| day at his office. Large numbers of
them were furnished by Ruroede with
Swiss and Russian passports, 1t is al
| legged, but American passports were
considered more desirable If they
could be secured. To obtain these, II
is charged, Ruroede employed nat
uralized Germans TO apply for pass
ports, paying them from S25 to $50
apiece for their services If necessary.
If once certified by the clerk of the
United States district cCuft the pass
ports were sent to Washington for
signature by Secretary Bryan and the
seal OF the state department, and on
being returned were given to the re-
serWsts.
The passports found on the four
Germans found today each bore the
photograph Of the bearer stamped
with the state departments seal. but
were made out, respectively, Zasche's
to Howard Paul Wright, Muller's to
Herbert S. Wilson, Meyers to Peter
Hansen and Wegncr's TO Stanley +.
Martin. Il was said that there was
no doubt as to the authenticity Of the
seal of the state department on the
photographs or as TO Mr. Bryan's sig
nature, but how the photographs had
been placed on the documents with
out creating suspicion that they were
not likenesses Of the persons TO whom
the passports were issued was not dis
closed.
1t was suspected that other fraud
ulent passports mights be found on
other passengers aboard the Bergens-
ford, but. although nine detectives
searched every passenger on the ship,
holding the vessel IN the harbor for
more than two hours, none other was
discovered
