at the offices at about 8:30 was a young

the police that shs passed by the Robinson-Sty

The telephone was rinsing .violently.

Brown hadtbeen brutally murdered. With-

was lying in tne toilet room at the time
she passed by and perhaps the Slayer was
at that moment removing the evidence of

A telephone call received at the Emer-

being carefully investigated. . The bodv

tory and that aside from seeing that the
South got her' full share 6T the naval
patronage be' would be content to be the
customary figurehead In so far as the
actual direction of the- department 'was
cohcefiied.''
Those who to figured "know not Jo

a few days after' bis Induction lata of
fice -and they have been receiving aim

since. No such naval secretary -has been
known here for a generation.. Red tape
and certain privileges- of . uniform and

it seemed a sacrilege to question have
been swept aside without hesitation by
this smiling wieiaer oi a new croons. The

. When he took 'charge of the Navy De
partment Mr. Daniels promptly made It
clear there would' be no system of fa
voritlsm by which certain officers would
have more than their fate share of sea
service while certain other officers would
have a 'proportionate overplus of com-
fortable dtftyi at social centdrs. and par-
ticularly at Washington - the haven of
American officialdom. ' It Is understood
that Secretary Daniels Is determined not
ony to break up-' favoritism In the- dis-
tribution of the 'plums and the lemonl
of the service but to put a 'larger pro
portion ' Of the officers Of the navy
on ships and ship duty and replace with
civilians a gooaiy niiimrer oi .ine onicers
who have-been doing civilian duty in
navv yards and at
the

the National Canltal.
Demonstrations of spdclal interest in
the - enlisted men : of the navy by the
hew secretary have had two effects.
They have increased the number of en
listments and they have aroused bitter-
ness in some quarters and alarm 'In
others according 10 the point of view.
Directions that officers shall spend a part
of their time In teaching the enlisted
men the' three K's.' for ' Instance are
naturally 'resented fen the- ground that
this is not properly a part- of' a naval
officer's business and would Interfere
with his' other work. There is a good
deal of feeling too ever the decision of
the secretary that one" bf the wings of
the new marine barracks to be buit at
Philadelphia shall be occupied by offi-
cers. The thought of quartering enlisted
men and' officers in the same building
however Subsided strikes many officers

In the latter direction At the sams time
some wild eanarda have been circulated
by opponent oJCbis. policies la an effort
to damage his admlhlatratlon. The worst
of these whlcfi was absolutely unfounded
was that Daniels had decided to require
the officers oh shipboard to mess with
the enlisted men of the crew.
There Is an air .of openness and un.
ostentatiousness about the Navv Denert-
ment In these days that comports with
ths personal appearance and democratic
demeanor of the secretary himself who
Is not at aU "set up" by authority. Even
the elevator service In the Navy De-
partment has felt the difference. ' For
years there has been posted at each elevator-
entranoe a set of rules one of
which set forth that bureau chiefs and
