cf past would be constructed at the Brook lyn yard Norfolk several advantages in the view of the Secretary but Its supply of skilled labor was so limited that he feared the construction of a battleship there would demoralize the labor market and tend to draw men from Richmond and Newport News where Government ships are now building under private contract thus delaying the time of de livery for those boats and working an in jury to the efficiency of the navy This argument did not apply to Bos- ton where there is In addition an ex- cellent plant but it was found Boston could not begin work before two years while at Brooklyn the keel can be laid inside of eight months Secretary Moody believes that the ap- propriation of 175006 will be sufficient- to prepare the ship at Brooklyn while the regular appropriation for tools will cover the cost of any necessary addi- tions to the plant There has been considerable difference of opinion among members of the board and It was thought that several sessions might be required to reach a decision The New York yard finds favor among some of the admirals but is objected to by others on account of the superior fa- cilities it affords for repairing ships and the advantage it has by reason of its great depth of water over Norfolk the largest vessels Norfolk and Mare Island For this reason several bureau chiefs believed the New Yoork yard should devoted exclusively to repair work and that to the Kortolk er Mire Island yards where few jrf the largest vessels can be docked aitftuW bft assigned tile wecket constructing the

Secretary Mocdy reached his decision after a conference with Chief Construc- tor Bowles EngineerinChief Melville and other heads of naval bureaus It is expected that work on the vessel will begin in eight or nine months In the naval appropriation which went into effect on July 1 provision was made for the construction of two 16000 tn battleships one of which was to be bull at a Government yard to be desig nated by the Secretary of the Navy Since then Secretary Moody has devoted large part of his time to securing in- formation which would enable him to select the navy yard where the ship could

building for the pur- pose of retiring to the lavatory Major Sylvester in reporting upon the case stated that It Is Important that members of the force make provision against rain and I believe generally that they do The temporary stepping aside out of the rain on the part of an officer is not a serious offense but for two officers on a beat to go into a place and sit down is a matter of entirely different character I had always entertained a high opinion of these officers it hurts me very much to be called upon to ad minister discipline In their cases If Private Coombs was so sick as to re quire him to be out of the weather it was his duty to have taken precau- tions to secure proper treatment or housing rather than to take the matter Into his own hands as to the manner In which he should perform service The officers are each fined ten days leave of absence to which they would be otherwise entitled with the admonition that any violation of the regulations on their part in the

BROOKLYN YARD TOCONSTRUCT ARSHIP

Secretary Moody ReachesDecision In Its

Favor

ITS SUPERIOR FACILITIES

Disadvantages of Norfolk and Isl-

and for the Work Admirals Differed-

as to the Choice of Yard Some Being

Against

Secretary Moody today announced thatthe 16000ton battleship to be built bythe Government In accordance with theprovisions cfpast would be constructed at the Brooklyn yard

Norfolk several advantages inthe view of the Secretary but Its supplyof skilled labor was so limited that hefeared the construction of a battleshipthere would demoralize the labor marketand tend to draw men from Richmondand Newport News where Governmentships are now building under privatecontract thus delaying the time of delivery for those boats and working an injury to the efficiency of the navy

This argument did not apply to Bos-

ton where there is In addition an ex-

cellent plant but it was found Bostoncould not begin work before two yearswhile at Brooklyn the keel can be laidinside of eight months

Secretary Moody believes that the ap-

propriation of 175006 will be sufficient-to prepare the ship at Brooklyn whilethe regular appropriation for tools willcover the cost of any necessary addi-

tions to the plantThere has been considerable difference

of opinion among members of the boardand It was thought that several sessionsmight be required to reach a decisionThe New York yard finds favor amongsome of the admirals but is objected toby others on account of the superior fa-

cilities it affords for repairing ships andthe advantage it has by reason of itsgreat depth of water over Norfolkthe largest vessels

Norfolk and Mare IslandFor this reason several bureau chiefs

believed the New Yoork yard shoulddevoted exclusively to repair work andthat to the Kortolk er Mire Island yardswhere few jrf the largest vessels can bedocked aitftuW bft assigned tile wecketconstructing the new vessel

Mare Island has the disadvantage ofbeing remote from the manufactories ofthe East which furnish the structuralsteel and armor for all war vessels

Cost of Transporting MaterialsThe cost of transporting the material

would necessarily add to the cost of theship and possibly brtog it above the 4per cent allowance that builders on thePacific secure in making contracts fornaval ships

Secretary Mocdy reached his decisionafter a conference with Chief Construc-tor Bowles EngineerinChief Melvilleand other heads of naval bureaus It isexpected that work on the vessel willbegin in eight or nine months

In the naval appropriation whichwent into effect on July 1 provision wasmade for the construction of two 16000

tn battleships one of which was to bebull at a Government yard to be designated by the Secretary of the NavySince then Secretary Moody has devoted

large part of his time to securing in-

formation which would enable him toselect the navy yard where the shipcould be built most economically andefficiently

POLICEMEN CHABGED

WITH BEING HOOBLERS

Two Officers Are Fined TenDays Annual Leave

Some days ago Acting Lieut W HMathews of the Second precinct pre-

ferred charges against Privates JosephShipley and D W Coombs to the effectthat they entered the of theGovernment Printing Office and remainedthere upward of an hour The matterwas brought before the Trial Board andas a result of the investigation the menpleaded guilty Coombs claiming in ex-

tenuation that he had no rubber coatand was suffering at the time with aheavy cold and sore throat and Shipleythat he entered the building for the pur-pose of retiring to the lavatory

Major Sylvester in reporting upon thecase stated that It Is Important thatmembers of the force make provisionagainst rain and I believe generallythat they do The temporary steppingaside out of the rain on the part of anofficer is not a serious offense but fortwo officers on a beat to go into a placeand sit down is a matter of entirelydifferent character

I had always entertained a highopinion of these officers it hurtsme very much to be called upon to administer discipline In their cases IfPrivate Coombs was so sick as to require him to be out of the weatherit was his duty to have taken precau-tions to secure proper treatment orhousing rather than to take the matterInto his own hands as to the mannerIn which he should perform service

The officers are each fined ten daysleave of absence to which they would beotherwise entitled with the admonitionthat any violation of the regulations ontheir part in the future when estab-lished will be taken into considerationwith this charge

Commissioner Ross has approved thereport the Superintendent and hasforwarded the papers to his associatesfor final action

Advices at the War Department showthat the military officers In Mindanaohave exhausted their efforts at a peace-able settlement of the trouble with theMoras and a fresh outbreak is consid-ered Inevitable

Inactivity of the soldiers tbyhave demanded the withdrawal of thetroops from the Moro country and asthere is no intention to withdraw anengagement is considered inevitable

Will Meet Moros in ForceGeneral Chaffee has explained the
