CONGRESSMAN BUTLER
SAYS HE HADN'T HEARD
OF 'MUZZLING' CHARGE
Representative Britton Tells
' Him Daniels Is Assuming
Autocratic Position, if
Reports Are True ,
"GAGGING" IS DENIED
By n Ulaff Correitponttcnt
WASHINGTON, Jan. ;.-Ilecause ncp
rescntntlve Thomas 8. Ilutlcr, of West
Chester, nt today's meeting of the Naval
A ft n Irs Committee, told Hepresentntlve
Fred A. Urlttcn. of Illinois, that he had
not heard of the "muzzling of nnval of
ficers," the Illinois member declared:
"Then you don't read the newspapers,"
"No, t don't," agreed tho lVnnsjlvn
npn. "Well," continued Mr. Urlttcn, "Ad
mlial Flske ngieed to ppeak In Chicago,
on prcpnrcdnoss, but he has been denied
that privilege by Secretary Daniels. He
has been given leave of absence on con
dition thnt he does not speak or urlto
on the subject. We have heard that of
ficers Imvp brMi muzzled nml unirired If
that Is true, the sectetary Is assuming '
a ery nUlocrntlc position." I
The chairman of the committee denied
the "gngglng nnd muzzling" chnrges.
saving that the sccretnry had denied of
fleers tho privilege of speaking and writ
ing on preparedness because It wns de
sired to have the public form Its conclu- I
slons without naval Influence. i
Admiral Stnnford, chief of the llurenu
of Yards and Docks, tho first witness to
ln, was asked bv lteprescntatlvc W .1.
Drowning, of New Jersey, whether tho
Mare Island Navy Yard, which has been
nwnrded the conttnet to build one of tho
new battleships. Instead of Lengue Island,
could do so without extension of the
building ways. Tho admiral snld It could
not. He snld thnt there would have to
bo mnterlnl Increases before tho ship
could be constructed.
Considerable debate resulted from testi
mony given by Admiral Stanford, that
clnbornte iiuarters for commandants of
nnvy yuids are necessary because of their
social obligations
"How many olllccrs nro entertained by
a commnndant In n year?" asked Repre
sentative Flnly Orey, of Indlann.
"I don't know what the avcroge Is,"
said the admiral "but at the League
Islnnd Navy Yard, when Admlrnl ToBo,
of the Japanese nnvy wns there, so many
guests were entertained that there would
not have been room for another person
In tho dining room."
"Who paid for that dinner?" asked
lteprescntatlvc Urlttcn.
"The commandant," was tho reply.
"Did lie have any special love for Ad
miral Togo or did he do It because his
olllclal position demanded It?" pursued
Mr. Drltten.
"Hecause It was tho custom," said the
witness.
Opponents of Increases In the nnvy At
tacked the nppropiintlons made for Wash
ington nutomobllcs to commniulnnts. They
asked for detailed statements ri to the
number of servants they havo and what
the gardener nnd chauffeur receive In
salary.

But Former Jnckies Are Reidy in

Tho United States Naval Reserve Is a
failure, according to naval otllcera. The
majority of former sailors prefer to re
main civilians, though many express a
willingness to enter the service In case
of war. ,

of the recruiting station at 1310 Arch
street, says that only 10 Phlladelphlans
have Joined the reserves since last March,
Lieutenant Hand admitted that former
sailors wero exhibiting little Interest In

sponded to an appeal sent from Wash

There are more than 30,000 sailors

Safe crackers pulled off a neat Job today
In John McDonald's snloon, at the north

their methods puzzled the police.
Their haul amounted to J3.V, In ensh.
To break the safe they Used what is
known ns n ".sectional Jimmy." and, con
trary to the practice of safe crackers,
they took It iwny with them. The Instru

enough to be rcmemuered by nny one who
sees It.
McDonnld himself dosed up the saloon
nt 2 o'clock this morning. When the head
bartender, Patrick McOoogan, opened the
place nt Ti o'clock he found the open snfe.
It had been drugged from behind the bnr

The bits used to bore the holes were
left on the Moor, and because two of them

HOOT OWL ON A 'TOOf
ADRIFT IN TENDERLOIN
Old Ezra Falls From Grace
After Brief Sojourn in
Beer Cellar
Somewhere In the city a lone owl Is
adrift. It's a big owl with a head like a
bunch of cole-slaw and languid ejes Ilka
n woo-y philosopher And It's a wise ,
old owl, too
It appears that tho bird, which wns 1
known ns Ezra, can see In tho daytime
ns well as at night. That's one of the
reasons It managed to escnpo from lis
home nt 1512 Mnrkct street, where stands
tho saloon of Wllllnm II Smith
Tho bartender, Hill Boad, said tho owl,
which was sent by a friend up-State, was
placed In the cellar to catch rats While
there. It managed to nose around among
tho beer and wine and whisky, nnd It Is
believed thnt the old bird fit hns been on
earth 20 jenrs) went on n "toot"
A hoot owl on a "toot" Is a bad owl in
deed As It wns dnrk III the cellar, the
owl thought It wna night In tho dnytlme,
and therefore It hooted nil the time while
awaiting the sunshine which nover came.
While the owl was hooting the driver
of a porter wagon came along. lie opened
tho cellar nnd let In n flood of daylight.
Old Erra thought It wan the end of tho
world. He emitted n hoot and thorn was
a flurry of wings, which sounded like nn
aeroplane ns he Hew by the porter driver
to tho street.
Down Market street ran the owl, with
the porter driver on his heels. The dilvcr
was Just about to reach be. fore him when
the owl remembered ho could fly, so ho
ilxcil his propellers and flew toward tho
Tenderloin He gnvo the driver tho morry
hoot, which Is tho way on owl laughs,
as ho rose skyward, There's a rovvaid
for his return.
