JUSTICE KELLY

 fsrandeis Wrecked Road.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Feb. 26.- The confirmation of Louis D. Bran deis is still hanging fire and many oi his friends are coming here to de- fend him before the Judiciary Con- mittee of the Senate.
 Justice Kelly of the Supreme Court of the State of New York appeared before the committee today and wig orously denied that Brandeis helped to wreck the New Haven Railroad. He stated that the railroad was on the rocks when Brandeis, was employed, and nothing that Brandeis could have done would have saved 1t.
 The feeling is growing here that Brandeis 'will be confirmed as 1t is conceded that much of the opposition against him is not we'll founded and that as lawyer, he is one of the foremost in the United States.

ADMIRAL CLAIMS NAVY INADEQUATE
Appears Before House Committee and Says We Could Not Protect
 Ourselves with Equipment.

WASHINGTON. D. C.. Feb. 28.1 Admiral Winslow again appeared be- fore the House Naval Committee to- day and stated that the United States could not adequately protect herself with the present equipment in fifty years. He further stated that the training at the Navy Academy at An napolis was altogether too technical, and was not practical enough.
 His evidence before The commit tee made a marked impression as the Admiral is regarded as the highest authority on naval matters and he will be asked by the committee to prepare a program that would ade- quately protect this country from in- vasion from across the seas. It is the opinion of such men as Winslow, that is having such a marked effect on the Senate who are loath to back up the President in his submarine policy only to discover that we are unable to back up our contentious, and would have to recede from our position in case we desired to back up any demands of the nation.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Feb. 2S.- Secretry Lane will shortly announce what coal lands the Government will offered for lease under the law pas- sed by the last congress giving him the authority to provide for the open ing up of the coal fields of Alaska.
 A great deal of interest is being manifested here as to just what pro- perties will be offered to the public and what will be reserved by the government. It is practically certain that the Guggenheims will bid on some of the Boring River claims, and fit hey can secure what they want they will immediately start con- of branch railway from Mile 38 on the Copper River By.
 The Alaska Engineering Commits sion have announced that they will be ready to haul coal from the Mata- nuska before next winter, and there is likely to be keen competition for the more desirable properties in that section.
