saloon owned by Joseph Strnube, just outside tho city limits, was robbed of $260 by sufo blowers early today. The story told by William Phillips, the night- iardner, of who has been he M'lTPtaiVs. chief critic in congress. Mr, Daniels referred tr a series ot i hirteeu questions regarding the aduiin- stratiou of the which Mr, Gardler propounds, to the secretary in let- er, saying a all of them had been isked by Mr, Gardner and answered sat- sfactorily by th" mny department uauy Didn't Sing 'Em to Him. "There, are doubtless people who are able to ask more questions than Mr, Gardner," the secretary s-aifl, "but I doubt if anyone a asked the same piestions s.o many times without paying the slightest, attention to the an- I have done everything but sing them to him, and while goodness knows I am no singer, if I thought that by so doing I could get him to stop asking questions long enough to listen to thft answers I would gladly set them to music," Answering one, of Mr, Gardner's questions which alleged that twelve of the twenty-one battleships in tho fieet recorded unsatisfactory scores iu the 1914 battle practice 1 the secretary produced a letter from Capt, C.

P. Plunkett. director of gunnery exercises, who said of his twenty years' experience iu the navy: I know no time during that period the enemies of our country had more to fear from the batteries of our fleet than they have today." Captain Plunkett added that by diw- tion of the secretary the widest possible publicity would be given to the battle practice results next month. Undermines Confidence. "I do not sympathize with this form of criticism," the gunnery director wrote, referring to Mr.

Gardner's question, "and believe that it will undermine the confidence of the people in the Heet and the confidence of the fleet people in their ships and in the officers who are charged the responsibility of the preparation of the fleet for war. "I consider such criticism and attacks on our target practice and the publication of the facts in connection therewith have been of the greatest use to every enemy of the government, both in our own country and abroad. "On the floor of congress," Mr. Daniels continued, "Mr. Gardner said he wished he could have the opinion of the official observer on our battle ships as to their target practice.

I read him his opinion. These are not my words, not those of any politician nor any civil appointee of a political party. They arc uttered with full knowledge of his responsibility by one of the foremost officers of the United States navy and an ejqert on these subjects." Answers Torpedo Question. Another question dealt with the type of torpedoes vrith which battleships were equipped, Mr. Gardner asserting that those in use in 1914 had been declared obsolete by navy ordnance officials.

He asked if the secretary knew this when he issued his 1914 reports. "We not only knew it, but were already manufacturing long-range torpedoes to take their places." Mr. Daniels, adding that these facts also had been contained in his own report and that of the chief of ordnance to which Mr. Gardner referred. "I am.

also glad to inform him," he continued, "that since then all the dreadnoughts in commission have been equipped with these new torpedoes." The secretary refuted Mr. Gardner's assertions that there had been undue delay in the completion of navy ships of various types now under construction.
