Two Officers Are to Be Tried
for Alleged Bribery
and Graft
OTHER CASES ARE
NOW DEVELOPING
Courtmartial to Be Started
at Once, Sec. Daniels
Announced

Washington, D. c., Feb. l0.-Trial by
courtmartial of two naval officers in con-
nection with charges of bribery and
graft in the third naval district has been
ordered by Secretary Daniels.
II was announced to-day that suffi.
cient evidence had been submitted this
morning, in a preliminary report by in
vestigators to warrant these trials i'm
mediately, Secretary Daniels said at
least two other cases were developing.
No names we're made public, but it
was learned that one case involved the
acceptance by a naval medical officer of
a bribe of 81 900 for passing an appli-
cant who was not physically qualified
for the duties he sought, and another
case involved a bribe Of $500 to secure
a detail which would permit the appli-
cant to remain at home indefinitely.
Mr.. Daniels said there was no evil
dence Of similar conditions in other dis
triets or stations and that he personally
believed the extent of the irregularities
in the third district, which has head
quarters at New York, had been greatly
exaggerated in unofficial reports.
Official confirmation was given the re-
port that all honorable discharges in the
third district have been suspended tenn
porarily except upon an investigation Of
the record of each applicant for dis
charge.

ing he did not make an appearance at his
usual time and his brother who also
boards at the same place went to call him
and discovered he was dead. The doc
tor called stated that death was due to
heart trouble and that he must have died
about u o'clock last evening.
Mr. Sanborn was born in Chelsea on
May II, 1865, and had lived nearly all
his life there. Most Of his life was

brothers, W. f. Sanborn of this city
and II. n. Sanborn OF Chelsea; also two
sisters, Mrs. j. A. Field and Mrs. II. b

er, Harry Sanborn, in Chelsea.

WOULD CONSOLIDATE
RAILROADS IN 25 SYSTEMS
This Is Solution Suggested by Daniel
Willard, the Consolidation to BE
Established on Geograph-
ical Basis.

Washington, D. c., Feb 10. - Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore &
Ohio, continuing testimony to-day before
the Senate interstate commerce commit
tee, proposed ultimate consolidation Of
all the rcountry's railroads in about %
great systems along present lines, as an
alternative to the plan of establishing
regional systems on a geographical basis
By his plan, the big roads would absorb
the weaker ones.
Under the proposed regional system, he
said, competition would be eliminated in
each region and service would suffer
Funds for purchasing the small roads
should be provided, the committee was
told, from excess earnings of the prosper
Gus ones, which otherwise would go to
the government. In this way, Mr.. Viii
lard said, the big roads would be induced
to promote the plan, and he predicted
that within five years there would re.
main not more than 40 systems. At
present, he pointed out there are 1872
railroads earning more than one million
dollars a year,

CLEDlENCEAU WOUNDED BY ASSASSIN;
WILL RECOVER IF COMPLICATIONS
INCIDENT TO AGE DO NOT DEVELOP
ATTACK ON CLEllENCEAU
WILL NOT HALT PROGRAM
American Delegates Think That Compre-
hensive Plans Already Laid Out
Will Not Be Delayed Long.

Paris, Feb l9-The American dele
gates to the peace conference, when they
learned of the attempt upon Premier
Clemenceau's life to-day, began to con-
slider the effect of the event upon their
own plans in connection with the confer
ence. On the assumption that the Of
fetal reports minimizing the nature of
M. Clemenceau's injuries were correct,
the belief was expressed that there
would not be any great delay in the ex-
ecution of the comprehensive plans laid
out for the proceedings of the peace con-
ference during the absence of President
Wilson and David Lloyd George, the
British premier,
Premier Clemenceau when he was shot
was on his way to a conference with
Colonel Il. NJ. House, Of the American
peace delegation, and Arthur j. Balfour,
the British foreign secretary The con-
ference had been fixed for 10 o'clock at
the war office, when an important ques
tion was to be taken up concerning more
rapid procedure before the supreme coun.
ell
The news of the attempted assassna-
tion reached Colonel House by telephone
from the foreign office Just as he was
starting from the Hotel De Criilon with
Secretary Balfour to meet Premier Glenn
eneeau at the Quai dorsey, The two
men at once began to consider what
steps should be taken regarding the gen
eral situation created by the event.
Word soon came that the results Of
the first examination indicated the
wound was not serious, but it was real
ized that, owing to his advanced age, the
premier might for some time be unable
to give his personal attention to the
completion of the peace conferences
work Since he had attended personally
to certain subjects now under considera'
tion, it follows that so far as these are
concerned there must be a temporary
suspension of activity. These subjects
were very important, affecting the whole
plan of the conferences operation, mas
much as they related to the consumma-
tion of an early treaty of peace.

WIRELESS PHONE TO WILSON
Is the Plan Now Being Considered in
in Boston.

Boston, Feb. l0.-Plans for greeting
President Wilson by wireless telephone
as he approaches this port on the steam
er George Washington for the visit he
will make here next Monday were ad-
vanced' to-day by army officials, Coop
Grating with radio research labora-
tory, Major Foster Veitenheimer, chief
signal officer of the northeastern depart
ment arranged the apparatus which will
be placed at the disposal of Mayor An
drew J. Peters to extend the city's
welcome.
The distance at which this greeting can
be given is uncertain, depending largely
upon atmospheric conditions, it is said,
but it may be possible to reach the
George Washington when she is from
$50 to 750 miles off shore. Major Vel
tenheimer said it was expected that the
George Washington would be within call
of radio telegraph stations tonight or
tomorrow, and arrangements for the tel
ephone conversation would be completed
by wireless telegraph as soon as com.
munication was established

Ger was wounded. Meanwhile, the pre-
mier had stepped out of his automobile
and walked into his house.
The actual arrest of the assailant was
made by Police Agent Labaugh, He also
made the first examination of the pris-
oner.
Georges Clemenceau has been one of
the leading statesmen of France for dec
ades, but it was not until the critical
stages Of the great war came and he
took the reins and guided the country
through to the end Of the struggle that
he became the world-renowned figure
that he is to-day.
With the fighting ended, NJ Clemen-
ceau has continued at the head of the
French government during the trying
peace making period. Head of the French
delegation in the peace conference, he
has been an outstanding figure in the
deliberations of that body over whose
sessions he presides.
OF an extremely vigorous and aggres-
siye personality, Premier Clemenceau,
while attracting TO himself a large and
warmly loyal following, has also deter
mined and outspoken opponents. AT ev-
cry turn of affairs in Parliament, how
ever, he has been able to wear down the
opposition to him, and just before the
opening of the peace conference, he and
his administration were given a striking
vote of confidence by the chamber of
deputies.
Premier Clemenceau, while formerly
classed as a radical, has come to be
known in later years as a representative
rather of the more moderate elements in
the French body polite, and it is in this
phase Of his activity that he has been
opposed by the more extreme elements
in the French political world, who have
accused him of giving his policies too
much of an imperialstic trend. He was
credited at first with being opposed to
the plan for the league of nations in its
broader phases, expressing a preference
| for balance of power secured by France,
Great Britain, the United States, and
Italy. His representatives., however, have
joined freely in the work of framing the
| covenant of the league and, with some
reservations, expressed approval of it as
it was laid before the peace conference.
Despite his advanced years-he is 7G
| years Old-M. Clemenceau has continued
to justify the sobriquet of "The Tiger" /"
which long has been applied to him, 60
ing through the trying work of the peace
conference, with its many long consulta-
tions, without often showing signs of
! fatigue.
