Comfnrt and Vtllltr of Orrm War Vessels. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. "Progress upon new vessels under construction during the past year hai not been satisfactory." aaya Rear Admiral Bowles, chlnf of the naval bureau of construction, lnhls annual re port. All the laraer vsssels have beea delayed by non-dellyery of structural alee! while the vessels building at San Francisco were et back by the ten months' atrike. and the holdout of workmen avt 8eattle pre vented any actual progrese on the hull of the battleship Nebraska. The Inability of shlp-bulldere to obtain a efficient force of akllled workers baa aleo been. In many caaea, an Important factor In the alow progress of the vessels. The battleahlp Ohio Is shown to have been twenty-nine months behind her con tract on the ftrst of July. The battleship Missouri Is over twenty mohs behind, the majority of the battleships and cruls .ers over ten montha and eorae of the tor pedo craft ara more than forty months be hind the date of completion stipulated In their contracts.' However, delays on the torpedo boats re being terminated by the newly modified conditions for their delivery. Delay Enables nearraen-ement. The contractor s delay In beginning the construction of the vesaels of the Vir ginia. Pennaylvania and St. Louis class. cave hla bureau an opportunity to mako a careful revision of the general plana of those vessels, which, ha aaya, will result in a considerable liupi oteuicnt In th"lr military value and in their habltablllty. An entire rearrangement of the echeme for the stowage of ammunition waa made and particular attention wes given to an efTi- clent scheme for coaling. The ships added ta the navy during the year were the battleship Illinois, and the torpedo craft Decatur, Perry, Preble, Bld tlc, Thoratou and Wilkes. Admiral Bowles aaya there continues to be an argent necessity for an Increase In ! the number' of officers of the construction corps. The principal navy yarda, It, la tated, have an Insufficient number of of- duties, this lack ef officer Is particularly hurtful Juat now In vie1 of the construc tion of the big battleship Connecticut at the New York navy yard. The bureau la now enabled, by co-oper-atton with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, to regulate technical educa tion appropriately and offer students and their Instructors constant opportunities for observing the building and repair of all classes of vessels. . Admiral Bowles points out that the policy ot congress has been against the con struction of new vessels In the navy yards, and as a result the development and Im provement ot the yards have not been gen erally directed toward efficient arrange ments for shipbuilding. The admiral la ot the opinion that it should be the policy of the Navy department so to arrange the navy yard planta the J tbey will be effi cient for shipbuilding, which la in reality, he aaya, one of the moat Important func tions tbey may be required to perform. An Interesting portion of the report Is that In regard to the work of the experi mental model basin. In which miniature warships are tried, and It is aatd the basin has proved ot great value to the construc tion bureau. Lear a How to Save End. A number of experiments have been made ' In the basin -during the last year to de termine the most desirable forma 'of the new battleships and armored crullers. It Is wholly to the basin facilities that the bureau has been enabled to show that new armored crullers of the Tennessee class, displacing 14, COO tons, may be expected ta make a speed of twenty-two knots an hour with lees power than the.rrulsera of the Pennsylvania class, which displaced IS. 680 tone.. Similarly the two pew ls.OOO-ton battleships of the Connecticut class will drive appreciably easier at eighteen knota than the preceding battleships ot 14,848 tons. Thus an Increase of 7 per cent In elie In the rase ot the battleships and of over ( per cent In alze in the case of the armored cruisers haa been accomplished with an actual reduction of horse-power necessary to drive them.

"But," M. Daneff aald, "apart from that, Bulgaria's duty la simply to guard its frontier, and it Is Its wish that Turkey should keep order In Macedonia. It la naturally difficult to guard auch a frontier as the Bulgaro-Macedonlan, but It Is quite out of the question that any considerable bodies of men should get acrons it." When asked what would happen ahould Turkey demand the repression of the Macedonian committee In Bulgaria, M. Daneff answered rather evasively: "Bul garia will always fulfill Us duty, both ex ternally and Internally, without allowing Itself to be Intimidated either by element within Its bordera or by thoee without."

ARRESTS ALLEGED SWINDLER Mail Iitpector Captures Otto Hermann ia Caticil Blnfl'e. MANY CRIMES LAID AT HIS DOOR Bald to Hare Defraaded Snmeroos In saraace Companies, Including; One la Omabt, by System of Hold Forgeries. "Tmann, alias Adolpb Heller, alias C. i av, alias L. K. Hawthorne, alias H. Kv alias whatever else la handiest, now languishes In the city Jail of Council Bluffs, waiting to find out what the United States government does with a man It shall convict of using the tnalla to defraud. He admlta that such conviction seems prob able, and this view la concurred in by a number of Insurance companies of Ala bama, Kansas and Colorado. The Gardeners of Omaha may also hold that view later, but at present is non committal, because It hasn't fully Investi gated returns that Hermann haa made to It In the last three weeks, during which time he has acted as Its agent. R. W. Tarklngton, general superintend ent of the bridge line, might have been another Interested party If A. P. Fred erick of Denver, an Inspector In the United States mail service, bad waited long enough to let Hermann learn the back atroke that Tarklngton uses In signing hla name. Inspector Frederick and Detective Calla han of Council Bluffa arrested Hermann at 7:30 Sunday morning aa ha was coming downstairs from hla room in the Creston house, a hostelry of the Iowa city. The capture waa the end of a game ot hide and seek that has been In progress some weeks. Early In September the government re. celved complaints from Insurance compa nies, the names of which are not yot given out, but among which ara supposed to be the Union Accident Stock company and the American Guarantee Inveatment company of Denver, and the Natlqpal Benevolent society of Kansaa City, Mo., that an Otto Hermann was using the malls to defraud. Working- Mlnlna; Camps. The government -gave the matter Into the hands of Inspector E. L. McKee of the Kan sas City division, who, upon Investigation, is alleged to have discovered that Hermann was working mining camps and some other communities where large numbers of men were employed. He sold, It is Bald, acci dent Insurance to persons that did not ex ist, forged names to fit them, forged the came ot the mine superintendent of each camo. aa endorsement on the papers, and collected bis commissions promptly from the Insurance company employing him. Inspector McKee, upon learning this and ascertaining that Hermann was then in Pittsburg, Kan., under the name ot Adolph Heller, went to the latter place In company with an officer of the victimized National Benevolent society. Hermann, it la said saw them first and decamped. Later he was located at Louisville, Colo., and Inspector Frederick of the Denver division was put on the trail. He found Hermann at Louis ville, operating under the alias of C. E Mlllsap and atoutly maintaining that Mlll- eap waa hla name. The Inspector waa Don vluced he had the right man; but the de scription did not tally, and In order to make certain ha determined to bring to Louisville from Denver R. J. Bardwell, vice president of the American Casualty company, organ ised In November last, with Hermann aa Its general manager and later aa tta road solicitor. Bardwell had told Frederick early that he knew Hermann to the extent of $600 advanced htm and never repaid. Fred erick left Hermann under the eye of the constable of Louisville and went to Den ver for Bardwell. The constable's wife had a heavy washing and aent for htm to come home and turn the wringer. He did ao and Hermann promptly hiked over the divide toward Lafayette. In fact, he hiked clear Into Denver, a distance of twenty-two miles. and was secreted there until the tfternoon of October 7, when he left for Omaha, ar riving here the next morning. Letter to Woman Gives Tip. The evening of October 3 he wrote a letter to Mrs. L. K. Hermann of Denver, care of the general delivery, and Inspector Frederick was promptly dispatched bera to look. up the writer. With the assistance ot Assistant Postmaster Jamea Woods rd he discovered that the man was In Council Bluffs and he crossed the river In pur suit Saturday evening. With Detective Callahan of the Council Bluffa force he rounded up the hotela there and on the regiater of the Creston house found the name H. Kurtz, with the letter H bear- ! Ing a telltale resemblance to the Hs Her- ; man was known to make In writing bis name. When Herman came down In the morning the officers confronted him, and hf, recognizing the Inspector, exclaimed, after he bad recovered his breath: "Well, you've got me. I don't know bow you did it, but you've got ma and I'll mako no trouble." He waa handcuffed and taken to tha Coun cil Bluffs jail, there to await the arrival thla morning of Inspector McKee, who probably will take htm to Kansaa City, aa It waa there that the bunt began, and with that division of the mall service that the original complaints were placed. When searched he was found to have a letter from the Des Moines Street Railway company, evidently in answer to ad applica tion for a position. In the same pocket with this one was another, typewritten, on a letterhead of the Bridge Line company and complete except for the signature over the word "superintendent." Slips found In the envelope bore many Imitations of the name, R. W. Tarklngton, and It la the theory tnat be was planning to forge the name of the superintendent to the letter, which was one recommending "H. Kurtx" aa an old and very efficient detective, long employed by the Bridge Line company, - Kxpert to Br "Sent Over." In the courae of the afternoon Hermann, who no longer pretended to be any one else, wrote, in the presence of Inspector Fred trick, a letter addressed to Mrs. L. K. Haw thorne, general delivery, Denver, telling her trie fly that he Is In trouble and "expects to be Bent over ths road." It was the first time the name Hawthorne has appeared, but he gave no explanation concerning It. President Frank Rsewater of the Gard eners aaid last evening: "Herman appeared la person at our office in The Boa building three weeks ago and was employed as a solicitor on a commission basis. He asked I to have funds advanced, but this waa de nied him. He has aent us two email In stallments of applications and has received bii commission on them,, amounting to about $25.

The company assured all who returned ample protection. This Is believed to be the first move on tto part of the coal com panies to hrenk the strike under tha pro tection of troops. SCRANTON. ra., Oct. 13. -This week, it Is generally believed, r.ill put to a test the claim of tbe operatnta that they will ba en abled to start their collieries If given pro tection and the countef claim of the Mine Workers, ss express In Wednesday's res olutions, that tho strikers will not return to work without concessions, even though the entire military force of the United States should be here to protect them. With a determination to prove their claim tha operatora have been for tha past week making a supreme effort to secure men. That tbey have succeeded to soma extent Is evidenced by announcements made with aome poEltiveness that various col lieries will resume operations In ths course of a few daya. Tha Delaware and Hudaon company will make a start tomorrow morning at tha Belleville. The Green Ridge Coal company will open up lta Green Ridge colliery prob ably tomorrow or the next day. but as suredly some day this week. Other com panies say they are figuring on a resump tion at certain collieries, but decline to give their location. Claim la also made on llie upei a tots' side that tni forces at collieries already working are to ba largely Increased during the week. The Mine Workers' leadera continue ta assert that the military can do nothing toward Inducing men to return to work, and that, all who could ba Induced to resume without concetaions are already back. strike . dlaorder . la now almost wholly snt!n.

Opwrtor' to tp nrt..ST. 'tf " WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. Little Informa tion aa to the atrike situation oould ba obtained today. It la understood tha oper atora are glad to have their aida of tha case laid before the president and es pecially tbe work they are doing to aupply coal. It la aald they have divided tho country Into districts and will attempt to equalize the aupply so that no ona com munity will suffer; also that tha railroads will make similar arrangements to handle soft coal so aa to aupply all who can maka use of It in place of the anthracite. The fact, that Mr. Root did not now con alder hla conference with Mr. Morgan yes terday ot any significance, seems to be ap parent, as he ' did not see tba president today. Senator Quay ot Pennsylvania, how ever, aaw the president for an hour today and discussed the strike, but what Informa tion he conveyed or what auggestlons ha received cannot be statod. Tbe senator de parted Immediately after tha conference for Philadelphia. READING. Pa.. Oct. 12.

The miners are aa firm today In their declarations not to re turn to work until they get aoma conces sions aa they have been heretofore. The appeal Issued yesterday by tha -American Federation of Labor waa re ceived with considerable satisfaction by tho strikers, but there waa considerable discussion over the paragraph In tha ap peal wJilch asserted that tbe mlnera were willing to leave their case In tha handa nf J. P. Morgan. When Mr. Mitchell's atten tion, waa called to it last night, he aald tt was an error. Today he refused to dis cuss It. It la evident there la some mis take and that he docs not care to call at tention to it by talking of the matter. From conversations with superintendents and military officers, the calling tor fed eral troops is a remote possibility. Na tional guard omcere do not take kindly to tbe suggestion and say tho state guard ahould be tried first. Brigadier General Gpbln aaya If It Is found-the Pennsylvania guard la not sufficient In numbers to con trol tbo situation he will favor recruiting the stale force up to twice Its site or to the number required to meet tne situation, just as was done during tha Spanlsh-Amer- , loan war. He. says the governor ur.der the laws cuo do it. and if tbe governor came to him for bis advice that Is what ha wou'.d suggest.
