Col. Bradley Says Baker Au-
thoriZed ReconditiOning of
Army Transports.

Col. John j. Bradley. assistant chief
Of the army transport service. testified
yesterday at the Hotel Pennsylvania be-
fore the Congressional committee inves-
tgating War Department expenditures
during the war that acting on authority
given him by Secretary OF War Baker.
he authorized the payment TO vessel
owners of $2.972,903 for the recondition-
ing of nine transports taken over by the
Government after the United States be-
came actively engaged in hostilities.
From the tenor of the questions asked
Col Bradley by Representative Albert
w. Jefferis Of Nebraska it became evil
dent that the authority of Secretary
Baker to confer any such power upon
Col Bradley viii be disputed
Under the terms by which the ships
were chartered by the War Department
the Government was obligated TO return
them at the close of the war in the
same condition in which they were found
when taken over, save for ordinary wear
and tear. board of review. composed
of army officers fixed the allowance to
be given the owners at such low figures
that they were Immediately rejected.
The international Mercantile Marine
claimed $1,313,742 for recondtioning the
Troy. $1,2SS.50S for the Kroonland
$1.227,649 for the Manchuria, and
S73O.O9O for the Louisville. The board
of review had allowed about S200, 900 for
the Kroonland and 100000 for the
Manchuria. Col. Bradley testified that
the board had neglected to take one
entire deck into account in determining
the cost for reconditioning the Kroon-
land, and that five compartments had not
been figured in making the allowance for
the Manchuria.
Although. Col Bradley said, the
owners refused to appear before him.
he authorized allowances of s356,699 for
the work on the Troy, $4,000 for that
on the Kroonland, $450.000 for the Man
churia and $367,S27 for the Louisville
Capt. T. Il. Sullivan OF the New York
office Of the Judge Advocate Generals
Department explained how Col. Bradley
reached the settlements after conferences
with technical men representing the
owners. The figures were reached
through negotiation and compromise"
he said. The hearing will be continued
to-day.

executive director depends only on his
acceptance"

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c.. Jan. IL.
British interests and the British Gov
ernment have initiated n movement that
has for its object the destruction of the
foreign business OF American packing
companies. according to a statement IS
sued to-day by the American Institute of
Meat Packers.
The institute placed in the hands Of
every Senator and Representative a pre-
liminary report on the American meat
industry prepared by a subcommittee
of the British committee on trusts. The
report proposes methods for curbing ex-
tension of the American meat export
business. IT is proposed to block the
American companies. to tax them wher-
ever possible, and it is suggested that
foreign countries be asked to cooperate
against them.
One Of the most significant proposals
is that the British take effective steps
to completely control and dominate re-
frigerator ships.
Blame for the action is placed by the
institute squarely at the door of the Fed
eral Trade Commission. II is charged
the trade commissions report sent to
the British and other Governments and
even disseminated through the American
State Department had melted and in
vited attacks on the American companies
in the world market.

BILL FOR LARGER HOUSE
TO BE DEFEATED TO-DAY
Representatives Opposed to
Increase of Membership.

WASHINGTON, Jan. II. - Lines were
drawn sharply tonight for a fight to-
morrow to defeat the reapportionment
bin, which would Increase the member
ship OF the House of Representatives
from 435 to 4s3.
After a final check up, leaders an
nounced that the measure as reported
would be voted down decisively. and that
substitute plan. holding seats to the
present total, would be adopted by a big
majority.
There seemed little sentiment for n
larger House. Members from States
which would lose representation under
the shifting of twelve seats from eleven
to eight States declared ttey would vote
against adding forty-eght Representa-
tives at cost OF approximately s1,5OO,-
600 O year when there is crying de-
mand from all quarters for govern
mental economy.
AS mapped out to-day, the programme
under which the bill Will be called up to-
morrow provides for FIVE hours of de-
bate. While there was SON @ objection TO
so much oratory. IL was agreed to per-
nit members to express their views at
length. and then by n rollcali vote let

BANDIT SLAYERS OF
DETECTIVES IN TRAP
Murderers of n. Y. C. Railway
Guards Surrounded by Posse
Outside Toledo.

TOLEDO, Ohio. Jan. 17.-Police early
tonight arrested Royce Richardson, a
negro. who is said TO have been the
driver of the car used by five bandits
at noon to-day in the robbery of New
York Central ticket agent and the shoot
ing to death OF two railroad detectives.
The bandits are believed to be sur
rounded in a house mile from the
scene of the robbery and detectives
armed with shotguns are ready 10 raid
the place. At o'clock tonight an ac-
cident at the city power house put all
lights out of commission, which delayed
the intended raid.
Richardson was In bed when arrested.
The police found $4,000 hidden under

was found on the negro when he was
searched at Police Headquarters. This
is about one-sixth Of the amount stolen,
police say.
Vivian Larrimore. negress, also was
placed under arrest She had 500 in
currency on her person, according to the
police.
The officers killed were Sergeant
Louis Schroeder and Detective n. Il.
Long of the New York Central forces.
The ticket agent, who gave up about
S12. 900 to the bandits, is a. III. Breed.
The stolen money was the receipts OF
the Union Station ticket office, the
amount taken in since the banks closed
on Saturday When the automobile occu-
pied by Long. Schroeder and Breed left
Union Station it was followed by an
other car containing five men and the
driver.
A block from the station the second
car crowded the first into the curb.
Two OF the bandits opened fire, killing
the two railroad officers almost In
stantly. The bandits then shot their
way through a mass of citizens and es-
capped in their automobile. The car was
recovered by police in the underworld
district.
