WIRELESS APPARATUS is
TAKEN FROM BULGARIA
Navy Department Takes Action
With German-owned Interned
Ship in Accordance With Policy.

In accordance with the general pol
icy of the Navy Department to prevent
the transmission of unneutral messages
by wireless. radio expert has dis
mantled the wireless apparatus on the
Hamburg-American steamer Bulgaria.
The antennae were removed and a wax
seal placed at the point of removal in
order to provide against a reattach-
ment.
The Bulgaria is the only German
owned vessel informed at Baltimore
that retained it's wireless apparatus.
The Neckar and the Rhein, belonging
to the North German line. had theirs
removed Immediately after internment.
Experts here claim it was impossible
for the Bulgaria to have sent messages
abroad without discovery in view of
the fact that it was not SO equipped
as to enable an operator to cover that
distance Besides, it is claimed, in
sending either by code or otherwise
the operator could not have avoided
the intercepton of a message by local
wireless stations.
Be this as it may, the Navy Depart
ment, to which was transferred con-
troll of ell wireless stations and yes
sells by the Treasury Department, has
seen tit to render it impossible to flash
messages from this country, and before
the end of the week not a German
owned vessel in this country will be
able to use it's wireless apparatus.

SAYS CHINA ACTS WISELY
IN RESTORING MONARCHY
japanese Banker Says It Is Only
Kind of Government That Can
Exist There.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, December, Is.
That China acted wisely in deciding
to return to a monarchial form of gov
eminent was the opinion expressed by
Baron Shibusawa. the Japanese banker,
who is here today from the east to
await the next steamer for Japan.
THE time for China to become a
republic has not yet arrived" he said.
The only kind of government that can
exist there must be monarchia1. AS
president of the country, Yuan Shi-Kai
was in reality, a monarch. He is. with
out doubt, the ablest statesman the
Chinese empire has. and should be able
to give the country what she most
needs-a strong, centralized govern
ment.
The only way in which the japanese
are interested in the governmental
CHANGE" he continued, lis its bearing
on peace and order and the protection
of foreign interests. We believe that
Yuan Shi-Kaf will be strong enough
to auell any disturbances that may
| result in consequence of his as
| sumption of the throne"
