Washington, Nov. 23.-Believing that
the Navy Department can obtain terms

Secretary Daniels advertised TO-DAY foI
bids or 62.O00.0OO pounds of structural
steel needed for the construction OF the
vessels. The construction bids offered
by private yards recently were IN ex-
cess of the appropriation, which made
It necessary either to build the battle
ships IN navy yards or obtain extra APP
propriations.
The bidders assigned as the reason
for the hiCh figures the increased cost
of structural steel Secretary Daniels
points out that arror plate has not
advanced n price over last years quo
tations, and he believes there is no
legitimate reason for the increase in
the price OF structural steel lie is

favorable bids IN response TO Secretary
Caniels's call rather than face the pos
sibility Of an embargo.
Neither the Philadelphia nor the
Mare Island Navy Yard il equipped for
battleship construction. The necessary
tools and slips would cost about $780,
600 and Secretary Daniels Will ask
Congress 20 appropriate that amount.

Some, Admitting Charges, Say

Iron Tho Tribune Buresu- J

Washington, Nov. 23.-The revela-
ton in New York to-day of the strength
Of the evidence of breach of neutrality
by Captain Boyd, of the German En-
bassy, which the State Department has
held without demanding his recall,
amazed Washington. 1t has long been
known that the testimony submitted to
the Department OF State by the De-
partment of Justice seriously compro-
missed Ambassador Bernstorff's attache,
but few had believed it was strong
enough TO Justify such statement as
was made by United States Prosecutor
Wood.
The strength Of the charges against
Captain Boyd-Ed is taken here as
fair measure of the administrations
desire to avoid offending Germany or
German-Americans Whether these
charges will be proved to constitute q
violation Of any Federal statute does
not enter into the discussion. Since
CAPTAIN Boyd is accredited as dip
lomat no such proof Is necessary 10
demand his recall. His alleged actions
arc generally admitted 70 constitute a
moral offence against the neutrality Oh
the United States.
No one connected with the admins
tration would discuss the New YORK
revelations tonight. Apparently the
DEPARTMENT of Justice, in going so FAR
ne II has In revealing the extent OF
the governments information, acted
without the sanction of the State De-
partment. There are indications OF re-
sentiment in the latter tonight 1t Is
fs,t that the action in New York has

den of iusifying to the country Its
