ARELET OUT
New Fiscal Year Sees An,
other Exodus Of Federal
Employees.

With the beginning of the new
fiscal year yesterday another big
exodus of government clerks took
place from practically all depart
ments. 1t is estimated that 10000.
clerks will be stricken from Uncle
Sans pay rolls by July Is.
Wholesale cuts in appropriations
were made at the last session Of
Congress, which acted on the theory.
that the wartime need Is overt
Work will pile up in some depart-
pents, il is believed, but the short
age of personnel will be overcome
in a measure by interdepartment
transfers. -
Wartime clerks are debarred from
the privilege of transfer, however,s
unless they have had three yearer
service in a given department, ac-
cording to the provisions of tho,
Civil Service act.
The War Department is expected
to release the largest number this
month, placed at 1000. Last month
5000 were released in this one de-
partment alone. The Navy Depart
ment dropped $50 civilian clerks
yesterday and more dismissals are
expected. Other departments are
making similar cuts.
Clerks subject to dismissal were
notified some time ago and were
given the privilege of securing po-
sitions with the Census Bureau.
Few availed themselves Of the Of
fer. it is reported. because of the
meager salary paid for the work
in this bureau.

LETTER
FLAYS DANIELS
Rear Admiral Attacks Sec
retary's Testimony in
Sims Sase.

The first drastic action in the con-
troversy between Secretary Daniels
and high naval ofiicers may come
within the next few days, it was
said yesterday.
Thls controversy was started by
Admiral Sims condemnation OF Dan
iels' naval awards and later his
criticism OF the navy's conduct Of
the war. The latest development.
In which Sims has had no part, came
in the form OF a letter by Rear Ad-
miral Decker, cleverly arraigning
Daniels.
Decker is commandant Of the sew
enth naval district and during the
war was attached to the American
embassy in Spain. His letter was
written to Chairman Hale. of the
Senate Naval Investigating Commit
tee, and was published in the
Army and Navy Register.
In his letter. Decker charged that
Daniels in his testimony before the
Senate Naval Investigating Commit
tee, Intentionally and deliberately"
certain acts of Rear
Admirals Sims. Fullam and Fiske,
and that the Secretary had deter
mined to break" these officers, be-
cause they would not follow him
to the limit of demoralizing and de-
grading the navy"

WILSON-M'ADOO
ATODDS, RUM0R
Political Scraps Declared to
Be Frequent Between
Two.
SEE TOO MUCH 'N-LAW'
President Said to Use Every
Influence to Defeat the
Former Secretary.
SEE TOO MUCH. 'N-LAW'

A most extraordinary story of real
antagonistic political feeling be-
tween President Wilson and Will
lam G. McAdoo was related here
yesterday on authority good enough
to warrant its inclusion in the
Washington gossip about the Dem
ocratic convention. The main points
of the story are:
L. That the President, from the
beginning, was opposed to the can
didacy Of McAdoo.
2. That McAdoo declined to adopt
the Presidents view, and still is
opposed to its
.. That no one can telI>from any
thing McAdoo has stated publicly
how he stands on the league Of ma
tions, and ii is suspected that as
to reservations" his attitude. il
nominated and elected President.
would be to "go as far as you like"
Father-in-Law vs.. son-in-Law.
The story continues that there
have been good-natured, philo-
sophical scraps galore between Nc
Adoo and his father-in-law. and that
necessarily out of these the Presi-
dent was enabled to get McAdoo's s
points of view" The main rea-
son why the President did not want
McAdoo to be a candidate for the
nomination, the story runs, was that
IL would look bad" even IL the
President did not turn his hand one
way or the other to assist his SON
in-law's candidacy.
In other words, no one would be-
lieve 1t possible IL McAdoo entered
the race and remained in il that
the President was not the assist
ing shadow in the background
But. according to the story, Nc
Adoo could not see things that
way. and that he has had no such
point of view. it is stated. is indi-
Gated by the fact that he has been
very dilatory in clearing upN his
actual attitude towards the nomina-
tion, and never has said he would
not accept it IL rendered to him.
The understanding here is that
the campaign of the McAdoo lead
ers now Is to beat Palmer especially
and Cox and keep McAdoo's forces
together till the end.
The story of the real attitude OF
the President towards McAdoo's s
candidacy indicates that the Presi-
dent would not be averse to the
success of Palmer. Davis or Glass.
1t Is also said on fairly reliable au-
thority that the President would
not take any steps to prevent the
nomination from going to Champ
Clark.

32 to 10. against the plank sub
mitted by Frank p. Walsh and Sem

which pledged the nominee OF this
convention, IL elected. to recognize
the present Irish Republic. Within
ia few minutes news of this vot
reached a caucus of delegates
friendly to the Irish cause in an
adjoining hall. BY a unanimous vote
the caucus promptly reiterated It's
faith in the recognition plonk. and
recommended that any minority re-
port be based on the Walsh-Phe-
Ian plank.
Just before this vote was taken
Senator David l. Walsh left the reso-
lutions committee for a brief visit to
the caucus, and sent the gathering
into wild flights of enthusiasm by
the blunt declaration that he IA
vored the recognition plank, and
would fight for II to the last ditch.
His attitude was considered psrtic-
ularly significant. as he has hereto

servatives against the Frank p.

Willis has contracted for the services
of the widely-known trainer and driver,

Grand Circuit trotter, Brighton b., 2.O51s,

week been purchased from Curlee Neck
Farm, of Richmond. Va, by Herman
Tyson, who WAS acting for MIR. Willis.

time Grand Circuit performer will be
now eligible to the 2.16 class trots over the
half-mile rings, and If he should take kind
~ to tho twice-arounds, he will be ex-
tcnsively' campaigned With the other

TOME MEET MAY %.

Port Deposit, Md, March 16.-Plans
are being perfected for Tome Institute s
fourteenth annual track and field meet
which is to be held at Port Deposit, May
%. Already many acceptances have been
received and it is very likely that the
number of schools participating will ex-
ceed 81, last years record The location
of Port Deposit, midway between Phila-
delphia and Baltimore causes these
events to take on an intersectional aspect.
The Middle Atlantic and Southern At
lantic champions are usually in attendance
and the competition has been keen.
Since first being held IN 1902, this meet
has gradually increased in the number of
contestants and the size Of the crowds, UNI
til now it is by far the biggest scholastic
event in the South. Secondary schools of
Importance within a radius Of several
hundred miles, yearly send TO Tome on
this occasion, hundreds of the finest types
of school boy athletes.
