The navy and marine corps will al
so be represented by their enlisted
personnel and probably some of the
vessls of the Atlantic fleet. 1t will
be possible for the bluejackets and
marines to be brought to Washington,
as they have on similar occasions, by
special steamer to remain during the
day Of the parade and form an i'm
pressiye part of the escort of the vet
Grams. The navy department con-
templates doing this in the honor OF
the G. A. r. members and their
friends who will be present in large
numbers, but as in the case of the
representation of the army, it is not
regarded as advisable to have too
large a demonstration lest it detract
in a numerical way from the princi-
pals of the celebration, the survivors
of the civil war. ANY number of
bluejackets and marines can be
brought from the Atlantic fleet and
from vessels in reserve. It may be
possible. also, TO have the midship-
men brought to Washington from
Annapolis if by that time the MEM
bers of the first, second and third
classes shall have returned from their
practice cruise to the west coast
In any event, the navy department
is planning to have an interesting
and impressive naval spectacle which
shall include such vessels as may be
brought to Washington to represent
the advances made in the mechanism
of naval warfare, and such ships as
the Hartford that may have an his
torical significance and, as well, a
contribution Of naval personnel to the
parade which is bound to arouse en-
thusiasm.

according to his report to the police.
The actual taking of the money oc-
Cured in a Los Angeles hotel. The
victim, robbed OF every cent, was
then started toward New Orleans, but
was sent back from the first station
by the Pullman car conductor to
whom he related his experience.
The bunko game was related by
Mokovivhs as follows:
II visited the San Diego fair and
there met small, dark man with
whom I became friendly He said
his name was Bennett. He spent
oney freely and induced me to go to
a Coronado hotel.
Meets Second "BunkO' Man.
"The second day at the hotel a big,
fine-looking man was greeted by my
friend and was introduced as Mayor
D. c. Stlllwell.
Bennett told me Stillwell was a
millionaire and that he made his
money on races. stillwell made me
buy a dress suit but he paid for It.
Then that night he introduced me to
a bejeweled woman 1 drank wine
and ate rich food Always stlllwell
paid
"That night we all went to still
wells room. Jewels lay about the
room. Hundred dollar bills literally
covered the flood stlllwell picked
up one Of the bills and told me to
bet It on the races.
81 bet and won; so did stillwell.
Then he told me he couldn't collect
his bets, as he had put up $4,000 in
checks in addition to $4,000 in cash
Took victims $4,000.
"Stillwell said could have the
$4,000 bet If could produce $2O,-
900 in cash.
II took fast train for San Fran
cisco and borrowed and mortgaged to
the extent of $4,000. I was on my re-
turn to the hotel, but was stopped in
Los Angeles. These men met me,
took my money and told me to watt.
Later Bennett returned and told me
he had lost the money. He went in
to big building and Bennett staged
real fight. He beat and kicked a
man until made him stop.
"Then Bennett told me to go to
New Orleans and meet stillweli in
the st. Charles hotel and I would get
$4,000 started but the conductor
turned me back and told the po-
lice"
