Enlistments In the navy now total ap
proximately 430,000 men, said Admiral

to apply the draft system alike to the
army and navy.
Admiral Palmer explained that enlist
ments In the navy Just now are princi
pally to provide crews for tho merchant
marine, and that about 200,000 men
have been accepted for that purpose.
Even If the present bill is enacted, he
said, theinavy would have no difficulty in
recruiting 16,000 men a month for the
merchant marine and for other pur
poses. The Navy Department Is already work

effort to have tne Senate reconvene

"Extraordinary rumors are afloat at

than fifty submarines disappeared, some
times with nil hands.
"The revelations made at Wllhelms-
haven caused a great sensation among
the people who were informed of them
The police arrested twenty-three ring
leaders who were court-martialed and
sentenced to death within three days.
Many of their accomplices at Kiel and
at other harbors have been arrested,
but have not yet been .sentenced.
"The sudden resignation of Holtzen
dorft as chief of the naval staff was
caused by this extraordinary scandal,
which was reported to the Kaiser last
week by the Imperial naval cabinet.
Holtzcndorff was Immediately sent' for.
He entered the Kaiser's loom ns chief
of staff and left it half an hour laier
as a retired officer.
"The Kaiser was expected to pay a
visit to the fleet this week, but he
abandoned tho plan for the present,
owing to the state of ferment prevailing
at Wllhelmshavcn, where the heavy
losses of submarines, the lack of food,
and bad news from the west front
produced a state of mind nmong the
sailors that was not conducive to an

the Mayor explained
Phrases from Mayor Smith's testi
mony follows:
"Mister Stern is the last man in the
world I would have any confidence in."
"Izzy Stern told me Judge Gordon and
himself wrote the Carey letter telling
me of conditions in the Fifth Ward."
"Senator McNichol was the best friend
I had In the world."
"There Is only one distinctly Vare
man in my cabinet, his name is Wilson.
Because of his appolntmenet I have been
subjeet.tqalj sorts of harassments "
"Dlrector" Krusen was endorsed by
Senator McNichol. Director Twining
was endorsed by Mr. McNichol. So
was Director Twining."
"I was close, extremely so, with Sen
ator Penrose."
' With State Senator Edwin H. Vare,
Congressman William S. Vare and Mayor
Smith as absorbed spectators, the de
fense In the Fifth Ward conspiracy case
today unfolded Its direct charges of a
Penrose "frame-up" to discredit the
Mayor and the Vares.
The defense's trump card today was
Allen Olds Meyers, a Burns detective.
Isadora Stern, In February, 1917, Meyers
testified, said a scheme was being
hatched to discredit Smith and the
Vares. Stern reiterated that statement
May 22, 1917, In Washington, according
to Meyers.
v. Director of Public Safety William H.
Wilson and William J. Burns, the de
tective, were also witnesses today for
the defense.
Wilson said he was Informed In Feb
ruary of 1917 that a plot was brewing
to discredit Mayor Smith and the Vares.
His Informant was Meyers, the Burns
Agency operative.
The Vares, Burns testified, employed
his agency to get to the bottom of the
supposed "frame-up" being engineered
by Penrose against the Vares.
Stern believed the Fifth Ward case
would duplicate the Lieutenant Becker
case In New York, Meyers asserted.
Stern was of the opinion that Mayor
' Smith's conviction would make District
Attorney Rotan the biggest man, po
litically, In Philaflelphla, the detective
continued.
Mayor Smith delayed the opening of
the morning session by a half hour. The
Mayor entered the courtroom at 10:26
o'clock. He was accompanied by W.
Freeland Kendrick, .Receiver of Taxes,
and James Scarlett, the Mayor' personal
counsel.
Senator Vare and congressmen vare
entered two minutes later. They took
seats next to William J. Burns, the de
tective, and two of his operatives, one of
them Allen Olds Meyers, the mysterious
newspaperman, who posed as a newspa
per man In alleged conversations with
Isadore Stern.
Before the Mayor arrived. Attorney
William A. Gray, chief counsel for the
defense, moved the withdrawal of a
Juror, because of an article In a Phila
delphia newspaper this morning. The
article referred to D. Clarence Glbbc
ney's testimony yesterday. The motion
was overruled.
Meyers, the Burns operative, took the
stand and began a recital of his talks
with Isadore Stern, who swore out the
warrants for the Fifth Ward defendants.
Meyers testified he met Isadore Stern
In Harrisburg In February. 1917. and
was Introduced to Stern by Boyd Ham
ilton, a Harrisburg newspaper man. He
had a letter of Introduction from Sen
ator Penrose to Stern.
Meyers said he first met Penrose In
the Capitol in Washington while con
ducting an Investlagtion for former Au
dltcr General Archibald V. Powell. Pen
rose did not say he was a detective.
Was to "Frame the Mayor"
Stern, Meyers testified, said in Febru-
ary, 1917, "that they had nmea 10 b"
the Governor," but that he and Pen
rose were trying to "frame" Mayor Smith
' and discredit tho Vares.
Meyers continued that he met Stern
-U again on May 22. 1917. In a Washlng
f ' ton (D. C.) hotel. Stern reiterated his
V declaration to "frame the Mayor" and
masked Meyers to get Penrose to help

newspaper man, confided the Information

'Xa, When the Burns Agency began Its In-
l vestlgatlon of the Fifth Ward case,

great thing It would Tie for him if the
Mayor and his friends were found
guilty.
Stern also told him, Meyers testified,
that he had warned tho Mayor there
would bo murder In the Fifth Ward, and
"there was murder.
"Jt Is nlmost uncanny." Meyers al
leges Stern told him, on commenting on
tho murder.
"Mnloney has to do what he Is doing
to save his own neck," Meyers testified
Stern told him, commenting on the tes
timony of Maloney at tho hearing be
fore Judge Brown.
"Was Maloney with jou from the
start?" Meyers said he ahked Stern.
"No. he was a Deutsch man," Stern
is aneged 10 nave said, "but he was
bought oil
Stern expressed the fear, according to
Meyers, that the "Vares would get to
Val O'Farrell and give him a bunch of
money to get Maloney to recant his
story."
Photographs of a business card and a
message of Introduction "to a dentist
which Stern gave Meyers were produced.
uiving anotner conversation with
Stern on October 11, Stern Is reported
to have said:
"Vare himself will he Indicted by the
Grand Jury. I'll show them If they can
call me a dirty little Jew "
'The Mayor was too wise to come to
the city," Mevtrs testified Stern tnlrl
him concerning the Mavor's refusal to
come to the cltv from Atlantic City in a
special train tho night before the pri
mary
"It was part of the plan to get him in
the city when the rough-housing began,"
Meyers continued.
"Then we could connect him directly
with it, but we got him anyhow, d
him. And you have to give me credit
for It."
Orny nlorkn Taulane
Taulane sought at the start of his
cross-examination of Meyers to delve
Into the Wllkes-Barre "frame-up" case
In which the detective figured recently.
Gray's objection to the prosecutor's ef
forts was sustained
Meyers, repljlng to Taulane, said his
home was in Newark, N. J. He has
been with the Burns Detective Agency
for years. He Investigated blackmail
cases, made confidential investigations
for the Cuban Government and for Jos
eph Tumulty, secretary to President Wil
son, he asserted.
He denied his specialty was In "un
tying frameup " He had been promised
no money or anv thing else of value for
testifying for the defense here Meyers
was Introduced to Isadore Stern ns a
representative of the associated news
papers, he said The intioduction was
made In Harrisburg, February, 1917.
The witness said he had taken the
precaution to obtain credentials from
the newspaper association. He secured
them on the pretext that he could ob
tain valuable news stories at Harls-burg.
Archibald Powell, former Auditor
General of Pennsylvania, engaged the
Burns Agency to "protect him from a
frameup by the Penrose people," Meyers
testified. He was detailed to the case.
He gained two Interviews with Senator
Penrose at Washington. Ho went to the
senior Senator as "the fountalnhead" of
the case.
"Penrose told me," said Meyers, "that
Izzy Stern was his floor leader and man
Friday at Harrisburg."
The Senator, believing Meyers was a
