ATLANTIC FLEET IS. BADLY HANDICAPPED. BY LACK 0F OFFICERS.
Six of Twenty-One Battle ships Able to Operate With Fleet, Fletcher
 Tells Committee

Washington, March 3.-Only 15 of the 21 battleships of the Atlantic fleet are on active duty in West Indian waters, three of the other six being so crippled for lack of officers and men that they can not operate with the fleet and the other three either awaiting or undergoing ex- tensve repairs. The 15 active ships are short from to r officers. each of the number assigned to them by the navy department and 1900 coal passers, cleo tricians, gunners' mates and other trained enlisted men. although they have aboard about 100 more men than the total per- sonnel allowed by regulations.
 NEED 5000 MEN
 This was the situation of the fleet as pictured today by Admiral Fletcher, com mander-in-chief, before the House naval committee. He added that in his opin. ion and that of various boards of of ficers who had studied the subject, the battleship squadrons of the active fleet required at least 5000 additional men over the complements now assigned. The shortage in the various ratings, he ex- plained, however, would not materially injure the efficiency of the fleet were

} STEAMERS BOUGHT FOR THE WARRIOR BY NEW ORGANIZATION
2OOO Tons Goes to Key West as First Sailing of Ala bama Coal Transporta-
 tiOn Company

Mobile, March 3.-(Special. .)-Predictin that Mobile will be the cheapest coaling port in the world, and that the big Ala bama coal fields will be equally benefited through the operation of constant stream of barges and other bottoms from the Warrior, H. e. Whiteman. gen. eral manager of the newly formed Ala bama Coal Transportation company, was in exceedingly optimistic frame of mind this afternoon when the first sailing of the company departed from Mobile. It was the steamer Harry Morse carrying 200 tons of Alabama coal to Key West.
 MT. Whiteman said the company's pres ent fleet of 15 barges will be increased by 30 new river barges and two tow boats. The company has also purchased the steamers Darling and H. c. White man in addition to the M. Carny. The Darling and Whiteman have been en- gagged in Mississippi river traffic. The Alabama Coal Transportation company announced today it Is to acquire dock frontage here sufficient to accommodate the tremendous business 1t will handle. One of the officials stated a mile of frontage is desired. if it can be obtained.
 No announcement was made of the new transportation company, until contracts for many thousands of tons of coal were completed for New Orleans, Texas and other gulf ports. The entire barge fleet of the Pratt Consolidated company now plying the Warrior, it Is said, has been taken over by the new company. Presi- dent Robert P. Hyams said this afternoon that in F months from now instead of approximately half a million tons of coal being brought from the Warrior fields that at least 5.0oO,0oo tons will be handled and that will only be forerunner of future developments.
 The Alabama Coal company consists of Robert F. Hyams president of the Hyams Coal company, New Orleans; H. c. White man of Whiteman Brothers, New Orleans. general manager, and H. E. Mccormack of the Pratt, Consolidated Coal company as vice president

Washington, March -(Special.) )-Rep- resentative Heflin of Alabama attributes statements to the effect that the Presi- dent would plunge this government into war to ambitious and designing poli- ticians. He characterizes the charge as a slanderous falsehood.
 The address of the Alabamian was the feature of a business mems banquet in Baltimore tonight and although he shared horrors with Senator John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, it. was MT. lief lin's eloquence which inspired the gath ering to it's most startling outbursts of applause.

 For IS months of trying diplomatic controversies his skillful handling of our country's affairs has stamped him as a wise. safe and trustworthy mouthpiece of the American people, and this effort to discredit him now and to poison pub lie opinion with the slanderous falsehoods that this brave and peace loving Presi- dent wants to plungs the country into war is the propaganda of foreign coun- try and deserves the condemnation of every brave man in this republic.
 This urcalled for attempt to discredit the President-this great biaader of q few ambitious and designing poliricians-has greatly embarrassed the President in handling questions purely of diplomatic nature, questions that the constitution requires him to handle.''

THE CONVICTION GROWS

In study of the foregoing, it must be borne in mind that in the old Sixth district, the counties of Tuscaloosa, Greene and Sumter never gave Captain Hobson their support. When Captain Hobson recalled that fact, and took cog nizance of the other fact that in the Sixth, as presently constituted, are two of Senator Underwood's old counties, the people of which still recall no doubt. his 1914 charges against their former repre- sentative, Washington begins to believe that irrespective of the captains love of strong battle, his action in jump ing into another district was nothing but his obedience to the law of instinct and self-preservation.
 Why was the new Tenth such an al- turing proposition to the captain? His old
