Abandon Efforts to Find

After an investigation extending over
a week the Washington police and
secret service operatives practically
have abandoned the search for pos
sible accomplices of Frank Holt. who
exploded a bomb in the Capitol.

officials are said today to have aban-

now satisfied that Holt. wonder
worker in crime, was unaided in his

Major Richmond W. Pullman. chief
of police, said today that an exhaustive
investigation has convinced detectives
that Holt worked single-handed. Major
Pullman comrared notes with William

and both officials are agreed the hunt

Unless an unexpected clue develops,

"In consequence Of rumors that a
Turkish force from the Yemen had

land and was advancing toward Lahaj,
the general officer commanding at Alden
recently dispatched the Alden camel
corps to reconnolter. They reported the
presence of Turkish force with field
guns and a large number of Arabs.
The camel corps fell back on Lahaj,
where they were re-enrorced by the ad-
vanced guard of the Alden movable
column. consisting Of go rifles and two
ten-pound guns.
Our force at Lahaj was attacked by
the enemy on July 4. The enemy's
strength consisted of several thousand
Turks with twenty guns and large num-
bers of Arabs. Our men maintained
their position In the face Of the enemy's
artillery fire until night, when part of
Laha1 was in flames. During the night
some hand-to-hand fighting took place,
The encmy's attacks on our front were
beaten off. but the enemy also conf
menced to outflank us.
y Meanwhile the remainder Of the Alden
movable column was marching toward
Lahaj. but 1t was delayed by water diff
and heavy going. 1t was there
fore decided that the small force at
Lahaj should fall back. The retirement
was carried out with success in the
early morning of July S. and the detach-
ment Joined the rest Of the column at
Virnasr.
Our troops were. however. suffering
considerably from the great heat and a
shortage Of water. Their difficulties
were Increased by the desertion Of the
Arab transport followers. 1t was there
fore decided to fall back to Alden. This
was done without the enemy attempting
to follow.
Our Losses include three British Off
oers wounded We took one Turkish
major and thirteen men prisoners"

secretary of the Navy Daniels talked
today about the submarine program
which he will recommend to Congress

decided definitely on the number, and
would not decide until September or
later he made It plain he would recon-

Last year. after recommending a mini

10 authorize as many additional as II
had the money for. A similar recon-
mendation Is expected this year.
Repa,ds that at least thirty will be
recommended were called to the atten-
tion or the Secretary. He denied that
ne had fixed on this specific number, but
left no doubt that he believed Congress
shoi'ld deal with the submarine problem
along broad lines.
The chief thing. in the opinion of
Secretary Daniels. Is to work out the
problem of seagoing submarines. He
wants an ample number of these con-
structed. but iato this there enters the
question OF whether the best type OF
seagolng submarine has yet been worked
out. He Is more concerned over the sea

application of the lessons OF the war
to attain the best type of sea-goins
submarine Once the navy experts are
satisfied that they have worked out a

a large number Of the smaller and
larger ones to the next Congress, and
1t Is not unlikely that Congress will

than the Secretary puts as his mini
