WASHINGTON. Oct. 16.
fAP) Suspicious circumstances
surrounding a $200,000 fire on
the battleship Colorado last June
are being investigated by the
navy department.
Secretary Adams said today
"events surrounding the fire led
us to believe that there might
have been some tampering" and
that "when any suspicion arises
a thorough investigation is con
ducted." The investigation was disclos
ed by the navy secretary today in
commenting on published reports
that the department believed the
fire was started deliberately. Ad
ams characterized the report as
'exaggerated."
Fire broke out on the Colora
do on June 2 while the battleship
was at Colon awaiting passage
through the Panama Canal. It
destroyed the plotting room of
the vessel and necessitated ex
pensive repairs.
The Colorado was taken to the
Brooklyn navy yard for an over
haul which disclosed needles
stuclc Into the wiring system of
the plotting room. It was beUev?
ed they might have been placed
there with malacious intent and
an investigation was ordered.
- Secretary Adams denied know
ledge of a report that a second
ire ; broke out on the vessel
while undergoing repairs at the
Brooklyn navy yard.
The investigation into the first
fire was ordered by Captain
William S. Miller, who had been
In command of the Colorado
