ed that Grand Duke Adolf Friedrich Of
Mecklenburg-Strelit has been selected
as king of Finland. Little news of mo.

GutzOn Borglum's charges that graft,

son ordered a thorough investigation
made by the department of justice
The senate committee on military af.
fairs also announced II would resume
its Inquiry into the fiasco. Both the
administration and the committee as
sured the public there would be nc
'whltewashlng" and that IL anyone
was guilty he would be duly punished
Secretary Baker protested against a
public hearing Of the matter by the
senator's on the ground that It would
only aid and comfort the enemy, ant
he told the military committee OF the
house that results under the manage
ment of John d. Ryan would soon b'
gratifying and that criticism of the con

German. There Is reason to bellev,
his confidence in Mr.. Ryan and the re

Another revelation that has stirred
congress and that Secretary Baker may

tlty production of the heavy Browning
gun and Of heavy artillery Is very far
behind the hopes Of the people that
were inspired by the promises OF the
war department. In the case OF the
howltzers 1t would seem that valuable
time has been wasted In the effort to
devise gun carriages of new and dis.
tlnctlvely American model instead of
going ahead with the models found
satisfactory by the British and French.
There Is also great shortage In pis-
tolls, though General Dickson. chief of
the arms manufacturing division, says
the outlook for Improvement In this is
encouraging. Mr.. Baker says an In.
qulry into the entire question Of ord
nance production Is being made by
Lieut.. Col. Bascom Little.

The railroad wage commission last
week recommended Increases for all
employees whose wages were less than
$3.50 a month in December, 1915. The
Increases range from 40 TO 43 per cent,
the lower the wages, the greater the
relative increase. The total annual In.
crease In the pay roll orsthe railroads
would be about $3O0OOO.OOO. Director
General McAdoo can use his discretion
In conforming to the recommendation
of the commission, and is expected to
render his decision very soon. Large
as the increases are, they do not come
up to the demands Of the railway
workers unions and considerable dis.
satisfaction Is expressed. However,
Mr.. McAdod's decision doubtless will be
accepted with good grace.
