New York, May 4-The defense opened
its case yesterday in the trial of Robert
Fay, a German army lieutenant, and
Walter Scholz and Paul Dacche under the
federal Indictment charging them with
eonspiring to destroy Notwithstanding
ships. Fay denied that he had any
thought of destroying munitions ships
but said that he thought it would be a
good Joke" to fix the rudders OF ocean
steamships so that outside OF the three
mile limit the helmsmen would find the
rudder failed to respond to the wheel.
"Of course also thought" he said, "that
it would mean the ship would have to
turn back somehow and there would ma
turally be long delay in consequence,
which would be good idea when ships
happened to be carrying ammunition
to the allies. There was never thought
of destroying them" Fay said Captain
Won Papen, the former military attache
of the German embassy, opposed his
plans.

myself with asking that Admiral Fishes
letter to the vice president be published

Admiral Fiske, in the letter introduced,

statement that the admiral had never
brought to his attention the report in
1914 that the navy was unprepared. Cit
ing Secretary Daniels letter OF denial,
Admiral Fiske said
This statement constituted an accus-

Chief interest in the California primar-

about through the failure of the Repub-
