, The prosecution contends, however
that the admission, coupled with the
testimony of first rlasaman P. B. Mar
xonl, to the aame effect. Is sulflclent
to support Ihe charge of hating, par
ticularly aa Ueratur wus the ranking
midshipman present. It was also stat
ed that It Decatur ahould be cleai-eu
oirthe present charge, a clcsr case ot
neglect of duty In falling to prevent
the haxlng of Oiuich In his room could
he made out in subaeqiient proceedings,
though the defense Is confident a con
viction cannot be had on the speclfl
cations which relate to the hating ol
McOrary, as while McCrary testified
that Decatur flatly denied It. and there
were no corroborating witnesses to Mc
Crary's testimony.
The case of Midshipman Worth W.
Foster, of New Albany, Ind., will be
taken up to-morrow, and that cf P. H.
Martoni, of Pensacoln. as soon as the
case against Foster Is concluded. Both
are first class men and both are
charged with hating Midshipman Ches
ter S. Roberts, 'of Jollet, Ills., on sev
eral different occasions.
M arson! was one of the witnesses
called by the defense yesterday in De
catur's case. His evidence certainly
did not help the accuse'd, and it was
thought that the charges against him
covered the same matter as did Deca
tur's, so far us It referred to Midship
man Church. This Is an error, how
ever, as all the specifications In Mar
zoni's case refer to the hating of young
Roberts.
What Is considered a somewhat
drastic precaution was taken to-day
when Provist Marshul Torry, U. S.
M. C, was ordered to remain near
the assembled witnesses in the room
where they are kept pending their
call before the court. He was told
to prevent any and all conversation
on the subject of the court, cases or
their own admissions on the stand,
between t,he witnesses. The record
findings of the court in the case of
Midshipman Trenmor Coffin were to
day returned to the court for a num
ber of minor corrections as to the
form Jn which they Were made, and
the court informally took up this
matter during the recess taken this
morning, and the necessary correc
tions made. The record will be re
viewed again by the superintendent
and then forwarded to the Secretary
of the Navy from whose office the
sentence will be made public.

ERA OF THE BAD GIRL
Bad Boy Disappearing, Says
Juvenile Court Clerk
Nearly 600 Delinquent Girls Last
Year Before liar in Chicago Cre
ate Public Sentiment Against ln
famous Dance Halls, in Which
Downward Career Starts.
(By the Associated Preps.)
Chicago, Jan. 3. The bad boy is
disappearing; the bold, bad girley is
taking his place, according to Wil
Ham O. La Monte, for five years clerk
of the juvenile court, who spoke be
fore the Social Economics Club yes
terday.
"During the first six months fol
lowing the establishment of the ju
venile court," declared the speaker
"only six delinquent girls were
brought before the bar. The year
before last the number increased to
384, and it is growing constantly-.
I believe when the totals are made
for last year the number will be
found to reach nearly 600. You wo
men we all ought to work day
and night to create a public senti
ment which will cause the extinction
of those Infamous dance halls in
which nearly all those girls started
on their downward career.
"At the State refuge at Geneva
every room Is full; in nearly every
room there are cots to accommodate
the overflow. It is Impossible "to
build cottages fast enough to meet
the Increase."
