Sims Quoted
By Daniels
In "Defense''
Navy Secretary in Second
= Letter TO Senator Page
Says Admiral Urged
a Gross for Bagley''

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-Secretary
Daniels replied to-day to attacks on his
awards Of navy decorations in letter
to Chairman Page, of the Senate Naval
Committee, which, with the House
Naval Committee, probably will in
vestigate the whole row prcciptated
by the refusal of Rear Admiral Sims
and other officers to accept the decora-
tions awarded to them.
The complaint Of the officers was
that in some instances Secretary Dan
iels had changed the recommendation
of the official board which sat on the
cases, bestowing higher decorations
than the officers thought merited in
some cases and lower ones in others.
Secretary Daniels explains at length
the theory on which he disagreed with
some of the awards.
Lawrence and Perry
Mr.. Daniels refers to his first com
munication to Chairman Page, in which
he set forth the principle that the
highest distinction should be conferred
on officers and men who had come III
contact with the enemy and had by
courage and judgment under attack ex-
emplied the highest traditions Of the
service and that the Distinguished Ser
vice Medal should also be awarded only
to those officers on shore duty who in
the language of the act OF Congress
baH 81 Sll.
certionally meritorious service TO the
government in duty of great re-
sponsiblity'
''In thus following the act of Con-
gress authorizing three classes OF
medals wrote me Secretary, "hoaors
less than the Distinguished Service
Medal should be awarded to officers
whose shore duty was meritorious but
not of great responsibility
II do not think the American people
can be persuaded to accept the idea
that the Distinguished Service Medal
should not be given to the captain of a
ship who bears himself courageously
in the supreme hour for which all other
hours in his naval career were but pre-
paratory, if his ship is lost by sub
marine or mine attack. Ii this theory
had been accepted in former years,
Lawrence ana Ferfy and Other naval
heroes would have been denied some
of the early honors which their coun-
trymen gladly gave them.
st is, of course, the, victory in bat
tie which gives highest glory. but med
ais of distinction are awarded for 'ex-
ceptionally meritorious SERVICE and
Lawrence was nc less deserving OF q
nations gratitude when his ship was
lost to his country than was Perry,
who, leaving the sinking ship, won vic
tory after transferring his flag from
the Lawrence to the Niagara.
Captain Hasbrouck's Case
Ten commanding officers OF ships
to1pedoed and sunk or put out of ac-
tion were selected as worthy of receiv-
ing the Distinguished Service Medal
These awards, as / stated in my pre-
vious letter, were made without excep-
tion to every commanding officer whose
ship felt the blow of the enemy, except
one, who was courtmartiaied, and who,
though fully acquitted, has no recon-
mendation from any superior officer
for recognition of any character.

MEXICO CITY, Jan. CIV The
associated Press)-Scores of persons
nave been killed in violent earth
quake which occurred in many parts of
Mexico last night. The center of the
disturbance is believed to have been
near the volcano Of Orizaba.
incomplete press reports indicate
that the State of Vera Cruz suffered
more than any other section. although
selsmlc disturbances were felt Though
out the entire republic. Advicea from
Cordoba say that thirty dead already
nave been accounted for in the village

houses were destroyed There are un-
trophe in the village of Huatusco.
Fifty Dead in Jalapa
At Jalapa, further north, fifty VIC
inns OF the earthquake have been
counted, including numerous dead.
Lack OF communication with the
other small towns and villages in the
theater of the disturbance makes even
approximate estimates of the casual.
ties impossible.
The earthquake caused great alarm
IN the large cities. Marine disturb

there, although the number is not

Due to Volcano, Belief
While the government observatory
mas not decided what caused the shocks
reports received from Cordova, State
OF Vera Cruz, assert they were due to
the volcano Orizaba, although the
mcager dispatches contain nothing re-
garding a possible eruption or of ,
volcanic disturbance.
The two huge VOLCANOES near Mexico
City, Popocatepetl and Ixtaccihuatl
have shown no signs of disturbance.
The shocks were felt heavily amone

Handcufed, Threaten
TO Destroy Station

LONDON, Jan. 4.-Three hum
dred armed Sim Feiners attacked
the police barracks at Carrigtohill
at 10 o'clock Saturday night, ac-
cording to a dispatch to the Central
News from Cork.
The attacking forces fired volleys
for three hours and then blew up
the end of the building with bombs.
It's occupants were made prisoners
while the raiders looted the bar
racks.
The barracks was occupied by a
sergeant and FIVE constables, who re-
turned the raiders fire. Finding
eventually that they were unable to
gain an entrance, the raiders threw
bombs, entered the breach made in
the building and seized and hand
cuffed the policemen. They searched
the buildings, removing the arms,
ammunition, accoutrements and
money, then held a council regard
ing the disposal Of the police, and de-
eidM to leave them bound, but
threatened that if an attempt were
made to repair the building they
would return and complete its de-
struction.
None Of Police Injured
The raiders decamped after cutting
'ne telephone communications, but po-
nee assistance finally arrived from
cork. 1t was found that none of the
Policemen was injured. The sergeant's
we and family also were in the bar
