The shopmen have been taking a strike vote for several days, There Is n strong" sentiment to strike among them, but their officials hnve held them in hnnd pending the completion of the rote, which ends tonight. 1 Lastnight. however, the men got out of hand and in mauv of the l'ctinol- vnnin Railroad shops went out without ffiffijSfi.

Last Votes Due Today The last votes for and against the ,. strike nre due to come in during today. and nn immdiatc stntement is to be expected from the" shopmen's officials. The walkout of the night shift oc curred after an enthusiastic meeting of shop employes of the Allied Crafts As sociation at Pifty-Hccond street nnd Gi rard avrnue last night. A statement from C'hlcngo to the ef frct that the railroad wage board would grant the shopman only n two-cents-nn-hour Increase in the decision now being ptepared was the cnuso of the strike vote.

The Sims Daniels row over the navy's conduct of the war was revived today with the publication nf a letter from Hear Ad miral Benton C. Decker, eommandnnt of the seventh naval district, Florida, in which he charges that Secretary Dnnlels in his testimony before the Senate Investigating committee, "inten tionally nnd deliberately" misrepre sented certain acts of Hear Admirals Sims, Fullam and Fiske. Admiral Decker formerly was naval attache at Madrid, but was removed during the war. Secretary Daniels has stated that his removal followed repre sentations from Ambassador Willard to the State Department that he was encroaching on diplomatic functions in bis activities there. Declares I'acts Twisted The admiral declared in bis letter thnt "from my personal knowledge of Mr. Daniels's character I nm led to be lieve that whatever Is cited in his state ments to the discredit nf the officers is so perverted and twisted as to give the actual facts a false meaning." "It is probable and more than likely," Admiral Decker's letter said, "that if these officers had bowed down nnd had served the gods thnt Mr. Daniels wor shiped they would tocky have been fattening on the navy as commnndcrM of fleets on active duty or in pleasant jobs in Washington. To me. as to other high outcers of the navy, it has come that if we would bow down nnd do the wishes of Mr. Dunieis we would re ceive the rewards therefore Intimations that come by circuitous routes and underhanded, sneaking ways, to that no one can take hold of them. "My experience of the incidents set forth bv Mr Daniels Is based upon my personal experience with him. This explanation is that Mr. Daniels found these officers would not follow him to the limit of demoralizing and degrading the navy ; that, even though they hon estlv desired the rewards and promotion of their career which all honorable men reasonably desire, they were not willing to saentice their character, their mau hood und their country. Calls .Methods Prussian And as a result Mr. Daniels de winch Prussinnisin used to destroy its enemies and autocracy hns used through i lie sges to maintain its power. 'In my opinion nil credit Is due to thise men that they have fought unto , , , , ,, .1 . 1 1 ,.n 1 he end nnd unie d the standard of up I l.lll lll'T, 111 lll, el LUiUHii mnl-' nhce, bard work nnd gentlemanly con duct, attributes that the ideal naval officer has alvvuys revered. "I have no desire In this letter to bring out my personal experiences with Mr. Daniels, but he knows of them, and he knows. If be knows the difference between right and wrong, thnt he has been dishonest; that ho has been auto erotic: that he has abused his power; that lie has done nil this for unworthy motives.

In another letter to Chairman Ilnle of the investigating committee, Admiral Decker assails Assistant Secretary Hoosevelt for his reference to n "holler than -thou" group of ofllrcrs nt the ravy Wnr College nt Newport, who he snys may bo the same officers who were scorn fully referred to as 'gold laced gentle. . 1 ...i.r. n n nrevlous occasion Air.

The only escnne from Ihe futllUt. nt n pussyfooting nnd defensive enmpnign woiiiu seem 10 ne tne nomlnntinn of Mr. McAdoo. And It Is this which keeps alive the. enndidacy of Mr. McAdoo, so far as It may now be said to bn nlive. Mr. McAdoo might be ndvnnced upon n colorless platform, but he probublv has the imagination nnd courage to raako his own ibsues and vitnllze hi own enndidacy. He would probably neither pussyfoot to pleaso the conservative machine men nor bo a mere defender nf the administration to please Mr. Wil son. That is, probably why neither Mr. Wilson nor the group of state lenders wants Mr. McAdoo. The President wants n man who sunnorts "mir rmii. cics."

Mr. Mc Adoo would be his own man. make his own pjatform, and, being elected, he would neither embody "my policies" nor represent pnrty government. The conservntlve forces in the con vention, who nre overwhelmingly strong nnd whom the Murphy-Tnggnr't group of state leaders are organizing, have another quurrel with Mr. McAdoo as enndidntc. They oppose him because iney regnru mm ns leaning to govern ment ownership of railroads and because they fear that ho might be too radl cnl in his nppeal for the labor vote.
