SHELLS FOR NAVY MAY HAVE BEEN
 TEMPERED
 WITH Incident Aboard Mongolia One of Two Cases To Be Probed by the
 Government. CASE OF SHELLS BAD Liner St. Louis Had Case of Shells for Defense which Were Perfectly
 Worthless.
By CARL D. GROAT

Correspondent of the United Press.)
 WASHINGTON, May 22.-The whole subpject of shells supplied to the United States Navy may be probed as a result of two strange occurrences aboard armed merchant ships have resulted recently
 This announcement was made by the Navy Department officials and it is believed that the investigation has already started.
 The tragedy of yesterday which happened aboard the American liner Mongolia, wherein two Red cross nurses of Chicago, bound in the first unit going overseas, were killed, has brought peculiar state of af- fairs to the attention of the author ities. This tragedy occurred by shell fired from gun on the deck returning from the water and ex- ploding aboard, killing the two wom- en.
 The other incident was reported week ago but was not made pub lie. This was the discovery of fase of shells aboard the liner St. Louis which were absolutely worth less.
 Both incidents have perplexed the Navy ordnance experts and the in- yestigation into both cases is under way.
 Malicious tampering of shells" :s the expression made by one of he navy experts. How far-reaching this tampering has been is of course unknown but the thorough investi- gation ordered will reveal all of the circumstances.
