REPLY TO MR. DANIELS.
The Daily Telegraph cortṛspondent at New York wrote on May 18th-
In his last appearance before the Senate Naval Inquiry on Friday, Mr. Josephus Daniels continued by onslaught "upon" Admirał Biùs in much the same strain“ að For previous occasions," sai alrendy called fully to The Daily Telegraph. There are such obvious efforts, it is commented, on the part of America's First Lord of the Ad- miralty to defend the Democrats' adminis tration that his statements, always care- fully typewritten, possess less value than would otherwise be the case. The most remarkable assertion of Mr. Danicis on his last day in court was that the report of the British Admiralty and awards of credit to Americans were accepted by Admiral Sima, although the British domanded absolutely conclusive proof before giving submarine ia credit for the sinking of a the case of an American vessel, while using
■ less rigorous standard in the case of! British ships. Out of 255 aftacks ed ind- marines by American vessels, the British Mr. Daniels said, gave the United States Forces credit for bus twenty-four succes ful attacks, most of which were listed an "possibly slightly damaged." In only one case, he said, was fail credit for the sink Ling of a U-bont given to an American ship, this being the destroyer Fanning, which kank 38 and captured her crow.

In confirmation of my statement that the best naval authority in the United States supports the British Admiralty, I am por mitted; tu say that Rear-Admiral Bradley A Fiske, president of the American Naval "Tastitute and a recoguised authority on naval strategy, endorses the British naval policy generally, and adds: “ It is to the prudence of the British, Admiralty in stand. ing firm aguinat the the American “advice to ' drg the rata out of their holes people owe their protection against inva NAP.

AUSTRALIA:S SERIOUS WHEAT PROBLEM,
The Sydney correspondent of the Times wrote on May 12th
All the State Governments are being urged to induce the Commonwealth to apply to Great Britain for an abatement or the wheat contract, "-
During March and April. 89 vessels ship- pod 8,500,000, bushels, 11 are now loading and will take 2,000,000 bushels, while 35. more, capable of carrying 7,500,000 bushels, are nearing Australia
The total stored in Australia is 50,000,000 buchels, but this is on paper, and competent men reckon that six or seven million bushels will have been lost.
