FREDERIK VIII. WAS NOT
 UNNECESSARILY DELAYED
Officials Assert That None of the Pas sengers Was Subjected to Indignities

Ottawa, Ont, March 13.-omciais who were in charge of the staff en- gagged in the examination of the Fred erik VIII, at Halifax, say that while the examination of the ship and her passengers was thorough. there was not a moments unnecessary delay and special care was taken to prevent any of the passengers being subjected to indignities.
 The examination of the women pas sengers was done by female examiners. The examnation of Countess von Bernstorff took less than three min utes The published statement that the insoles of her shoes were ripped off is an absolute falsehood, the of1l- cials declare. as is also the statement that all hot water bottles, baby nip pies and rubber heels were confiscated- Passengers having more than one wa ter bottle in their baggage were re- lieved of all but one There were no baby nipples or rubber heels seized. 2
 The examination was conducted from beginning to end with due re- gard to the comfort, susceptibilities and rights of all passengers.

It stands to the world as an American institution and has so far brought lustre to the American people. a Its continued success should he matter it to the United States carries a re- sponsibiiity and a national duty.
 i'No war or other difficulty into which America may be plunged can absolve her from this duty, and least of all from following the example of France and Great Britain. The temp tation to cease giving should not be yielded to each time a ship is lost, or the rumors of war become alarming. I cannot believe that our people will succo51b to such impulses.

Bids for Si, Scouts Will be Opened ir
 Washington Today.

Washington, March 13.--An attempt will be made tomorrow sby the nayg- department to place contracts for the construction Of 3j knot scout cruisers without invoking the presidents au- thorty. to require private builders Go undertake the work.
 While congress has authorized seven of these vessels. deemed absolutely es- sential to the efficiency apf the fleet, only one has been contracted for up to this time. Bids have been adVer- tised three times and congress has raised the limit or cost from S5.OOO,000 to $5,000 900, but the department was without information tonight as to the number Of shipbuildiug companies that would respond tomorrow.
 Bids for six scouts to cost siX mil lion each, exclusive of armor and ar mament, will be opened. The Seattle Construction company undertook the construction of one at S5.O00 GOO be- fore the cost limit was raised
 Secretary Daniels probably win place contracts this week also for five battle cruisers to cost $19. .0O0, 900 each exclusive of armnr and armament. They will be built on a basis of 10- per cent. net profit to the builders and will be distributed ainOug the plants so as to obtain the quickest results.
 Provisions also must be made soon for the three great battleshipa soon to be ordered. Ship builders will aaaiu confer with the secretary tomorrow about them.

 Saturday evening we maintained close touch with the enemy evacuated his entire trench line, while we push ed forward in close contact Before dawn on Sunday a general advance on
 both banks was ordered and at 5.55 o'clock in the morning we occupied the railroad station. the city being en-
 pashed forward in pursuit and after
 slight resistance occupied Kazimain
 capturing over 100 prisoners and four
 damaged aeroplanes.
 Our gunboats now took up the pur-
 suit
 During this recent lighting fierce
 gales and blinding dust storms, the lack of water away from the river and the vigorous pursuit made the opera tions arduous.
 ttSince February g the Turks had been busy destroying and removing everything of value in Bagdad considerable amount of booty has nev- erthelesSS fallen into our hands, in. cluding large quantities of equipment arms and ammunition. Five hundred Turkish wounded also were abandoned by the enemy.
 ''on the left bank of the Tigris be- tween POO and 300 Turkish dead were counted on Saturday and 300 prisoners were taken.
 'son entering the city Of Bagdad the local inhabitants gave us a warm well come. Slight disturbances occurred in the city, consequent upon the Tur- kfsh evacuation, but complete order was restored when eur troops entered
