NAVAL TRAINING
PROVES VALUE.

Training courses prepared by
the Navy Department have proved
their value in the fleet In the
last year, according to a Navy
Department announcement today.
Returns from the ships afloat
show that the battleship whose
personnel completed the greatest
number Of training courses in gun.
merry ratings stood first in the
annual gunnery competition. The
battleship taking least interest
in training courses, it was stated,
stood last In gunnery.
Likewise, the cruiser which stood
first In engineering efficiency was
the one whose personnel had
completed the most engineering
courses, while the one standing
lowest had completed the least
number.
The Navy issues 1O4 training
courses in pamphlet form for the
benefit Of enlisted personnel in
every rating. The training courses
are carefully prepared by naval
officers on duty in the Bureau Of
Navigation and the courses are
conducted aboard ships Of the
fleet by officers in the depart
ments concerned.

Death of Valley
City Marshal
Especial to The Herald

SAN JUAN. March 3.-A flareup
Of bootleggers' warfare is cen by
local officers in the death of depu-
ty city marshal Jose Cara. who was
shot and killed here about 1880
last night. Assistant district at
torney Rodgers Kelly Is conducting
an investigation Of the case.
Cara stumbled into a shop Sun
day night mumbling i~ncoherentiy,
and died within a few minutes. He
had four bullet wounds in his abdo-
men, inflicted by a 45-caliber au-
tomato pistol.
Death by gunshot wounds in
flicted by persons unknown" was
the verdict returned by Judge ID. G.
Hogan who conducted an inquest
over the body Immediately.
No witnesses saw the shooting or
the assailant had been found this
morning. Several residents OF San
Juan have declared that they heard
about ten pistol shots on O dark side
street last night, and IL was shortly
after the explosions that the
wounded deputy stumbled into n
shop.
Judge Hogan stated that Cara
had not pulled his own pistol from
its holster. indicating that he had
been shot before he had time to de-
fend himself. All the bullets en-
tered the mans body from the
front. Seven pistol shells were
found near the scene OF the shoot
ing on the side street.
Several personal difficulties. in
which the officer was reported to
have been involved lately, are be-
lieved to have led to the shooting
in which bootleggers' activities are
seen as figuring largely.
Arrests of one or more suspects
which officers are trailing on the
strength of strong clues are expect
ed within the next day or two.
