Admiral Thomas has mado a rather unusual pronouncement regarding publicity af fecting the fleet. It has always been my belief , ha nald. "that the public is entitled to ..know everything- concerning the Navy that Is consistent with its welfare. There nre, of course, many matters of technical nature which must be kept secret from foreign powers, but these are usually of a kind in which the country would not be Interested par ticularly anyway. "It is the people's Navy. This is the people's fleet. There la no reason that I know of why we should conceal from them what we are doing so long as essential military secrets are kept In violate. I think it will be better for the people of the United States and better for the Navy if they know each other more intimately. "I shall welcome any effort to ac quaint the public more thoroughly with this fleet." HOSPITAL SIMP ARRIVES Relief Brings 15 2 Patients From Magdalena to San Francisco. SAN FRANCIS V. April 7. Direct from Magdalena Pay, with 152 sU'k from the battleship fleet on board, the hospital ship Relief. In command of Surgeon C. P. Stokes, of the t'nlted States Navy, completed her first voyage this morning, when she dropped anchor in this harbor. I, ater In the day she proceeded to Mare Island Navy Yard. W hen seen on board tlie Relief, Commander Stokes said: "The need of a hospltalship has long been apparent in naval circles and when one takes into consideration the good re sults obtained, fie is bound to admit that no mistake was made in assigning the Itelief for duty with the Atlantic fleet, t give my orders to the mailing master and ho follows them out to the letter. As a result, there Is not the least trouble on board and matter go along without a hitch. "When the Relief has discharged her patients at Mare Island, where they are to bo taken to th hospital, the vessel will rejoin the fleet at San Diego. The pick on board have been given the best of treatment, something which would be Impossible on one of the big shins, where the Interests of so many men must be looked after. We have at present a num ber of patients who are to be operated on for appendicitis, other suffering from tuberculosis and 15 insane. "In all. 150 sick are now being ca red for on board and if necessary we could accommodate W more. We have not lost a single patient, but on the other hand a great Improvement in the condition of all is noted." As the relief lay at anchor in the stream many of the patients made their way to the quarter deck, where they en Joyed the warm sunshine. Men from every vessel of the great fleet arrived on the hospital ship and all are anxious to return. While at Magdalena the doctors on the hospitalshlp were kept busy every minute of the time. caring for the sick who came aboard from the Atlantic during the stay in the South, squadron. Ten operations were performed In the handMng of the patients on board the Relief. Surgeon' Stokes is assisted by Surgeons A. W. Pun bar, Raymond Spear, II. F. Strine, W. F. Shaller, J. O. Downey and 5ti men from the hospital corps. THANKS KNGLAXD FOR OFFKR President Not Prepared to Accept Courtesies Extended Fleet. I, ON POX, April 7.

WONDERS WORKED BY CRtlSE Enlisted Man Says Efficiency of the Navy Has Been Doubled. SAX FRANCISCO. April 7. Henry tMsvielle. chief master-at-arms of the battleship Rhode Island, the first en listed man to reach San Franolsco from Rear-Admiral Rvans" fleet at Magda lena Pay, arrived here today on the hos pital ship Relief. In his opinion, that of a man who has served as a bluejacket In the Navy the cruise has helped to in crease the efficiency of both officers and men 1X per cent. "All have enjoyed the cruise Immensely and a great lesson has been learned by the men on all vessels. The officers and sailors have come to know one another Ntter and as for the ships, they are tn perfect condition," declared Sosvielle. ' An Interesting incident of the cruise occurred at Punta Arenas. Two of the Jakles on the Rhode Island took advant age of the occasion to go on a hunting trip. They secured permission to take the ship's cutter and left in high spirits. Before they had been long away from the ship, however, a squall arose and they had considerable difficulty in keeping the boat afloat. At last a sudden gust of wind caught them as the craft struggled In the trough of. the sea and the cutter capsized, throwing them Into the water. They managed to cling to the bottom of the upturned boat, however, and were driven five miles away from either the shore or the Rhode Island before the weather cleared. They were seen from the shore by seaman James Blegler, who secured a leaky boat, and with -a piece of hoard for an oar, made his way to the men and effected their rescue. Captain Murdoch of the Rhode Island recom mended Biegler to Rear-Admiral Evans for reward and the latter has reported the matter to the Navy Iepartment. senator's prodding taft f Continued From First page.) doubled. The Navy, he said, was now and would continue to be useless. Clapp said he waa In favor of stopping the enlargement of the military estab lishment at once. He hoped the motion to reconsider would be pressed. Replying to Beveridge. Hale said the reason given for this enlargement of the Army and Navy was that the country might have a "big war." Aid rich Walls About Deficit. Aldrlch expressed the hop that the utterances of the Senator from Mame would have the careful attention of the members of the majority, who, he said, were responsible for legislation. "We have," he said, "expenditures this year of $.000,000 In excess of receipts. Iast year we had receipts In excess of expenditures of J52.O00.0O0, a difference of $W.O0O,O00. "We are certain to have a large deficit In the revenues." He added that there were pending in the Senate special bills Involving more than J1O0.0OO.OO0 and, referring to Bacon, he said he was sorry to see an "economist in observation" advocating a bill to pay $10,000,000 for certain cotton claims, and there were other bills taking money out of the treasury that would Insure an in creased deficiency. Wants No More Soldiers. Beveridge having said that an army of 65,000 would be useless against a single army corps. Hale Inquired: 'Where does the Senator think this im aginary army corps is to come from?" He added that a conflict of this country with another needing a large army was practically impossible. Ho would have no more soldiers, and said the Senator from Indiana would never see a war. He char acterized war talk as "sheer nonsense." Warren defended the Army, and said much of its time was taken up with look ing after river and harbor work, and that there was no country in tho world with so small an army as that of the United States, exceplng Switzerland. Aldrkh suggested that, this country was better protected naturally than any other. "Did not the Secretary of War," asked Gallinger, "In a recent speech, favor a large increase in the Army?" Warren said he did not know of such a speech, but hoped that "the country would rrow fast enough and rich enough to feci like having an Army as large as was suggested." "I hope not," said Hale. Political Attack on Taft. Hale having left the chamber. Fry, In his colleague's behalf, moved to lay the motion to reconsider on the table. Burkett (Neb.) criticised this action as an unwarranted method of "criticising a man now attracting attention in this country." "We inject Into this body." said Bur kett, "a political discussion that the Sen ator from Maine had no right to Inject into the debate. It is a political attack upon a certain political candidate in this country, and it has not the element of fairness." He charged the Maine Senator with fall ing to exercise good faith in presenting his motion to reconsider, which was shown by the motion of his colleague to withdraw. Frye defended his colleague against the charges of bad faith, but refused to re cede and the motion to lay on the table was carried. No Fear of War Wlth Japan. An amendment to the fortification bill was made appropriating $503,000 on motion of Flint of California for land and fortifications at Point Firmln off Los Angeles. During- the debate on the bill, com ments on the tendency of the Govern ment to increase its expenses were made by Teller of Colorado, who said the Secretary of "War had nothing to do with the. enlargement of the army except to execute the laws enacted by Congress. So far as he was concerned, he did not favor the increase that had been made in the army. "I have heard he said, "that some members of the administration fear we w ill have a war with Japan. I do not think Japan Is going to make war against us, and I am quite sure we are not going to make war against Japan. If you double the army you will simply make an incentive for some people to get up a disturbance in order to get higher rank." INSPECTOR DOES THE WORK Owner of Orchard Must Pay fop the Spraying, However. SAI.IIM. Or., April 7. (Special.) County Fruit Inspector E. C. Armstrong today began a new phase of the war upon San Jose scale by hiring a gang of men to go into the orchard of Rev. F. M. George, near Liberty, and spray the trees. Heretofore enforcement of the law has consisted of chopping down diseased trees, but that course is pursued only in the case of trees that have been rendered valueless by disease and neglect. The George orchard is one of the most valu able in the vicinity of Libertv. but has become Infested with scale. Mr. George sprayed 10 acres, but left 20 acres un treated. Mr. Armstrong will have tt sprayed and charge the cost to the owner. When the work In this orchard is com pleted Mr. Armstrong will put the gang at work in other orchards in the vicinity. SEA-WALL TO STOP FLAG IE insanitary Condition Along the Seattle- Waterfront. SEATTLE. Wash.. April 7.-(Special.) Health Commissioner J. E. Crlchton has filed with the City Council a communica tion In which he outlines the necessity of a sea wall along the water-front and tells of unsanitary conditions as he found them during his recent investigations. The health and sanitation committee of the Council will take up his communication this week. Dr. Crlchton recites that almost un speakable conditions exist beneath the planking on Railroad avenue. Waste of all kinds from commission houses, res taurants and markets has been thrown through the planking, where it has de cayed. Dr. Crlchton gives it as his opinion that the final eradication of plague makes the construction of the sea wall imperative. TUFT RUNS SECOND La Follette Men Win a Victory in Wisconsin.

April 7. The Repub lican state convention met today and elected a full delegation to the National convention. The delegates were not in structed. The only show of a contest was over a resolution directing the Na tional delegates to support Secretary Taft for the Presidential nomination. It was defeated overwhelmingly by a viva voce vote. The convention was In the control of the state organization, headed by United States Senators Dupont and Richardson. The so-called administration faction, which was defeated at the primaries last Saturday, had only a comparatively small number of delegates in the convention. They favored Instructing the delegates for Taft. The convention's work was practically performed by the county cau cuses, it being the custom in this state by both parties to divide the six Na tional delegates equally among the three counties and to permit the county dele gates to make their selection In caucus. The state convention simply ratified the action taken by the county caucuses. The platform adopted indorses the ad ministration of President Roosevelt and the state administration and also com mends the President's reoent course in the enforcement of his policies. It also favors a revision of the tariff. DTD NOT INSPIRE ARTICIE Taft Refnses to Reply to Hale's At tack on Him. COUNCIL. BLUFFS, la., April 7. Secretary of War Taft finished a busy two days, the time of which lie has divided between Omaha and Council Bluffs with a speech on the Philippines at the Grand Hotel tonight, where be was the chief guest at the annual banquet given by the Council Bluffs Commercial Club. There were nearly 300 guests present. Mr. Taft tonight was shown a report of the Senate proceedings, wherein Senator Hale discussed increased ap propriations for the Army and read it with keen interest. He said: I certainlv have no knowledge of who wrote the article in the Washing ton paper referred to by Senator Hale, nor of its contents. It was not in spired by any person officially con nected with the War Department As for the remarks of Mr. Hale, I have nothing to say at this time. I could hardly with propriety enter into a discussion of such matters- through a newspaper interview. I trust you will excuse me. , . , ... Asked if he would have something to say regarding an increased mili tary establishment, he said he would not. He also refrained from speaking of the matter in his speech tonight, which was almost entirely on the Philippines. DELAWARE REJECTS TAFT Republican Convention Refnses to Instruct National Delegates. DOVER, Del., April 7. The Republican state convention was called to order at 1 o'clock with William S. Hilles, of Wil mington, as temporary chairman. After the announcement, of the committee, a re cess was taken. The delegation to Chi cago was selected by a caucus and is as follows: United States Senators Henry A. Du pont and Harry A. Richardson, Governor Preston Lea, Congressman Hlrain R. Bur ton, Walter O. Hoffecker and John G. Townsend. The session of the convention was brief and uneventful, the work having been done by the county caucuses. The con vention elected the National delegates which the caucuses had selected and also ratified the caucus selections for the State Central Committee. No Instructions were given to the delegates and a resolution to instruction them for Secretary Taft was overwhelmingly defeated. The platform which was adopted, en dorses the Administration of Roosevelt and the State Administration and also commends the President's reoent course in the enforcement of his policies. It also favors revision of the tariff duties as applied to trade with the Philippines. The remainder of the platform is devoted to local conditions and questions. Bryan to Rest at Home. DENVER, April 7. William J. Bryan spent a quiet morning in this city after his strenuous day yesterday. He made several personal calls and visited the local National Democratic head quarters.

The Rone ticket also elected the Treasurer and Comptroller. TAFT CARRIES MINNESOTA La Follette Men Appear to Have but Two kun-tles. ST. PAUI., April 7. Returns from all parts of the state, where primaries were held Saturday and Monday show that there Is now no question about Secretary Taft having the Minnesota delegation for him at the Chicago convention and it is very doubtful if any other candidate for the Presidency will be able to secure even a single delegate from this state. Tn some counties fights were put up by 1a Follette supporters, but to date the only counties won for the Wisconsin Sena tor are Wilken and Clay. Bryan to Talk at Utica. UTICA, N. T.. April 7. W. J.

DOCTORS WILL FORBID IT Hop Patient Can Be Induced to Forego Participation in Recep tion In California Cities. Admiral Is Reconciled. PASO ROKLES HOT SPRINGS, Cal.. April 7. "Rear-Admiral Evans had a splendid night and Is feeling better this morning' than at any time since his arrival here," said Dr. f. E. Mcbon nold today. Dr. McDonnold is surgeon on the flagship Connecticut and ac companied the Admiral to the springs here. Lieutenant Evans also declared that his father had had a very restful nlg-ht and was feeling unusually bright and cheerful this morning-. "I am great ly encouraged over my father's condi tion," said the Lieutenant. While the improvement In Admiral Evans' condition Is all that can be ex pected In so short a time, and he has had no acute attack since h's arrival here, it Is now practically certain that he will not rejoin the fleet at San Di ego or partlclpo.te In any ot the cele brations and various functions In Southern California. (When the time comes for him to leave, in order that ho can resume1 command of the fleet at San Diego, as he is determined to do, he will meet the strongest oppo sition of Div McDonnold, Dr. 1. E. PhilM ps, in charge of his h yd ro therapeutlc treatment at the springs, of his son and his flag1 officer. IJeu tenant C. Russell Train. To this, no doubt, will be added the Influence of the Admiral's wife and daughter, Mrs. C. C Marsh, who arrive here Thursday afternoon. , Xo Functions for Him. Thfl more rapid his Improve ment the more Insistent will be his family and phyMclans that he remain here and make the Improvement per manent. Should he take the leet irto San Francisco by resuming command at Monterey, It Is said It Is not likely t-hat he will be permitted to participate In many functions and that he will return to the spring's as soon as pos sible. General S. B. M. Young, retired, of Washington, has arrived at the springs. After calling upon Admiral Evans he said: "I am well pleased with the Rear-Admiral's present condition, and there Is no question of hia speedy recovery if he re mains here, but he cannot or at least should not take part In any of the Coast celebrations and should be discouraged from making any such attempt." "I am still hoping to rejoin the fleet at San Diego," said Admiral Evans to the Associated Press representative this af ternoon, "but I am hi the hands of ijiy doctor and whatever his orders may be I shall submit. I twill be a keen disap pointment to be If he does not allow me to go south, but he knows what Is best for me and I shall not disobey him." Improvement Is Marked. The marked improvement In the Ad miral's condition was apparent fn his voice, manner and appearance. He seemed fn excellent spirits, chatted freely, and spoke feelingly of the kindly Interest that was belg taken In him by the people of California. Having received a telegram from John H. Roberts, Assistant Adjutant General of the California G. A. R., an nouncing that a deiegatlon en route to the Grand Army Encampment at Santa Ana would pass through Paso Robles at 4:4 1), Admiral Evans had himself wheeled to the depot by his son to greet the old veterans of the Civil War. The train, however, was late and after waiting for some time It was found necessary to take him back to the hotel. He was much disappointed but left a message for General Roberts, express ing his regrets that he did not meet the delegation. Makes Shopping Trip. The Admiral today, fo rthe first time since his arrival here, was wheeled about town. Going down the main street to make come little purchases, he was soon surorunded by a crowd, some farmers and many children, for the first time getting a glimpse of him. He shook hands with a number of them. Lieutenant Evans will leave tomorrow morning for Los Angeles to meet his mother and sister and accompany them to the springs. Should Admiral Evana not be able to go south, it Is quite probable that Mrs. Evans and the daughter, Mrs. C. C. Marsh, wife of Commander Marsh, will attend the festivities at the southern port. Tomorrow and PViday will positively be the last days for discount on West Side gas bills. -Portland Gas Company.
