SAN FRANCISCO. June SO.-Tourlst

day in a federal Investigation which thus
far has revealed that nundreds of men
alleged to have been recruita of the allies
were assembled, mostly on the Paclfld
coast, and sent to England.
NEW YORK. Juno 30. The British
consul general here disclaimed to
day any knowledge of inducements
having been made to United States
soldiers and sailors to desert the Ameri
can service for the British army and
navy, as charged by a federal agent In

the Naval Academy,
Says Mr. Daniels;
WASHINGTON, .' June 30. -Secretary
Daniels and Rear Actn.iral Fullam, su
perintendent of the naval academy, con
ferred today over the investigation Into
charges of hazing Drought out at the
Inquiry into irregularities In examina
tions now In progress at Annapolis. Sec
retary Daniels said no clemency would
be extended to any guilty one.
"If anyone has been hazing," said Sec
retary Daniels, "he will get out of the
academy. There is no discretion to be
exercised. Congress has made the duty
of academy officials plain in a statute
prohibiting the practice. Every midship
man has been repeatedly admonished of
this, so no one can say hi did not know."
ANNAPOLIS. Md., June 80. The at
tempt of the government to require the
defendants In the "cribbing" Inquiry at
the naval academy to testify, was ques
tioned at today's session of tha naval
court investigating the matter by coun
sel for the defense. He was overruled
by the court, however, which statad that
each defendant has the right to decline
to answer any question which he might
think would tend to incriminate biro.
Midshipman James E. Moss, one of the
original seven defendants recommended
for dismissal by Superintendent Fullam,
denied that there had ever been any ae
crecy regarding the copies of the exami
nation in Spanish which he claims to
have received by mall and which waa
considered by himself snd others to be
nothing but the ordinary type of "dope"
based upon former examination.
The academy authorities charge that
the papers contained last year's final
test In Spanish and that they had been
stolen.
