Washington, April C Navy otB
eer wondered today whether or not
the eervieewill really go dry after
July 1, the date fixed by Secretary
Daniels, when the wine mes on all
warship will be abolished. A lib
eral construction of the order means
that not alone is the mess to be abol
liahed except a surgeon, -who intro
duce, even for medicinal purposes,
a bottle of iutoxicant aboard any
ship" faces court martial and dismissal.
Representative Bartholdt said: .
"This is an unusually harsh meas
ure. - It violates personal;, liberty. 1
do not think the use of beer or light
wines is harmful"
Prohibition for the Navy After July
- .. v-- -'i tb Pint. .
. Washington, April 6. Absolute pro
hibition will prevail in the United
States Navy after July 1 next. Sec
retary Daniels made public tonight
a sweeping order, wl.Hh not only will
abolish the traditional "wine mess"
of the officers, but will bar all ekholic
liquors from every ship and sho-e
station of the navy. This order con
stituting one of the notable victories
over won by prohibition forces, waa
issued- on ' the recommendation of
Surgeon General Braisted. It was
brief and to the point : ' -
"The use or introduction for drink
ing purposes of alcholio liquors on
on board any naval vessel, or within
any nary yard Or station, is strictly
prohihited;A'and" commanding officers
will be held directly responsible for
the enforcement of this order."

' Walbilgtton, April 4. The a ost in

with the progressive gathering which
is to be held in Raleigh next week
it waa stated that Secretary of State
William. Jennings Bryan had notiiied
- those in charge of the movement that
unless that part of the proposed plat
form which referred to the "segrega-
' tioii of the races" waa stricken out
be would not under any considera
tion consent, ,mak a speech be-
" for the progressive meeting. It is
also stated that those in charge of the
movement have decided ; that they
would rather hare the Nebraskan ap-
pear on the scene than to insist upon
- the segregation plank, and, therefore,
. that part of the proposed platform
' has been eliminated. . .
C A 'gentleman who received one of
the letters which referred to this
. plank which now appears objection'
' . able to Mr. Bryan, says that the rea
- son given by those who advocated the
plank was that, tie Fawners'; union
was committed to ': the : scgregatioa
idea' and that, therelore, it was nee-
eessary to. include it in the new doc
v trine.' They now consider Mr. Bryan
more-' desirable' than the segregation
To above statement was made by,
'. gentleman whose integrity vls . hot
questioned.- He stated that in addi
tion -to the' letter he bad 'discusse-.l
i the matter with some of the leading
progressives and was absolutely cer-
tain that Mr. Bryan had issued an

FAIR SKIES PROMISED )

April o. Fair skies
wr nmnised tonieht bv the weather
country the first of the week, but un
settled conditions, probably with rain
or snow,' will prevail in the wake of
a low pressure area that will travel
eastward from the plateau region,
reaching the seaboard about the aid
die of the week.
''Fair weather will continue," the
forecast said, "probably most of th.'
week in the south except in the penin
sula of Florida, where local rains will
oecur early in the week. A low ores
sure area now over the platetfa region
will move eastward, attended by un
settled weather and local rains or
snows in -the plain states and the
Missouri valley Monday, extending
Monday night in the plain states ani
the Missouri valley "and the upper
lakeregion, and. reaching the lower
lake region, the middle of the week.
"Another disturbance probably will
reach the north Pacific coast by Tuesday.-
It will move eastward and
southeastward and should reach the
central portion of the country sonic .
time after the middle of the week,
'Temperatures will rise by Tues
day Over the cast and south, and no
unusual temperatures are indicated
at present over any section."";,

the negro accessory after the fact, on
the grill.";. For a week the-.negro has

this torture failed to wrings from bi:u
confession either that he is the
guilty man or that he knows anyon-;
else who is implicated. H is said
that seven men walked into the cell
carrying, a' coffin, which Conley wa
told contained the body or the young

he was to be left alone with it but
all to no avail. The negro's nerve
