he denounced the Californian astron-

would have a sudden demise on De-

APOLOGETiC REBUKE ADMINS
TERED BY REPUBLICANS

Washington, Mar 1.-THE subcom-
mittee on naval affairs, by a strictly
party vote, finds Josephus Daniels,
secretary Of the navy, guilty.
f 1t is held that his action in revis-
/ ing the list Of naval heroes deemed
I by the Board of Awards worthy of re-
/ ceiving medals for distinguished SER
vices, had a deleterious' effect on the
morale Of the Navy The secretary
especially criticised for having deco
rated his brother-in-law, Commander
Bagley, whose ship was sunk by a
German submarine.
The Democratic manority, compos
ed Of Senators Pittman and Trammel,
rendered minority report SO insis-
tent were they that the report of them
was due to partisan politics, that they
declined to content themselves with
joint statement of differences.
Each prepared his own paper. The
result of the sensation is as this bu-
reaus repeatedly predicted From the
beginning, the parties took up the
gage of battle, and the verdict was a
foregone conclusion-the Republicans
would stand by Admiral Sims, who
brought the charges, and the Demo
Gratis would stand by the secretary.
The report Of the majority is regard
ed as exceedingly weak 1t states its
case in the most apologetic language.
It's structures are SO tempered with
pleasing phrases that the defendant,
against who they are directed, must
regard himself, if not a hero, certain
ly martyr. In the meantime, the
second inning is anxiously awaited.
The secretary will certainly take the
admiral to task.
The falling of the blow will be an
event OF the near future. Its nature
