MR. WILSON AND OUR NAVY.

BITTER POLITICAL DEBATE-

IN AMERICAS

Mr. Daniels's further disclosures of the estimation in which the Pre sident held the British Navy-in- mediately after the United States entered the war has deepened the

unfortunate impression created by the publication of Mr. Wilson's address to officers of the Atlantic Flest in August, 1917, says the Washington correspondent of the Morning Post. The Sims Daniels controversy has become an acute political question, and the Re- publicans in Congress and the Re publican newspapers have used the testimony of Admiral Sims to discredit not only Mr. Daniels and his administration of the Navy Department during the war. but also the President. Mr. Daniels, they say, was incompetent, the President was indifferent and knew of Mr. Daniels's incompetence, and yet te did nothing and disregarded the highest professional advice. Admiral Sims has made the charge that the tailme of the Navy Department to accept his advice cost the lives of 500,000 men and prolonged the war many months.

A crisis was reached during the last visit of the German Kaiser to Vienna, when in the midst of the Court dinner the exasperated Crown Princes (as Zita was then called) drew a revolver and fired straight at the German Emperor. The shot missed its mark; but the Kaiser fired back and slightly wounded his assailant. Immediately afterwards
