BRITISH NAVY DENOUNCED.
Lord Bedford Declares Whole Adml
ralty System fs Rotten.
London, June 2 .—During the dis
cussion of the naval estimates In tha
house of commons today Rear Admiral
Lord Charles Boresford, Conservative,
scathingly, denounced- the tnefficiency
if the navy.
He declared the whole admiralty
system was rotten and led to great
Trxtrhvatpince, -and Hmm- ta-,*. a
general want of efficiency in the navy
on which depended tne existence of
the empire. This was the judg
ment of ail the commissions of in
quiry and had been proven a fact. Ev
ery increase in the number of ships
and every improvement In them had
'been the result of outside agitation.
As the result of such agitation* the
British Mediterranean fleet was not a
fourth stronger than a year ago.
It was remarkable, Lord Beresford
added, that both army and navy offi
cers were compelled to threaten to re.
sign in order lo get things righteL
Great Britain had only 20,000 naval
reserves Instead of the requisite 30,00.)
and the engine room departments
were thousands of men short. As to
armament Doth the United States and
France possessed superior guns. Blun
ders would continue until a separate
business board was appointed at the
admiralty and was made responsible
for the efficiency of the fleet.
FORTUNE GOES BEGCING.
Man Leaves $142,000 Cash, but no Heir
to Claim It.
Los Angeles, Cal., June 'l. —A for
tune of $142,000 in cash awaits tho
heirs of an old man who passed under
the name of Charles Hill and who died
at the Good Samaritan hospital two
weeks ago.
About three weeks ago the man,
who was between 75 and 80 years old,
applied at the hospital for accommo
dations. He was taken in and he paid
for all the services rendered. Then
it was found that he could not recover,
and he was asked to tell the names of
his relatives in order that they might
be notified. He replied that he had
not a relative on earth. He died anl
was duly buried. In his clothing was
found $2,000 in currency. Further in
vestigation by the public administra
tor disclosed a key to a private box at
the Union Hank of Savings. The box
has just been opene'd, and in if were
found several large packages of cur
rency aggregating $140,000.
The old man had lived here spvon
years in a modest sort of way at lodg
ing houses and restaurants, but had no
intimates, and no one can be found
who knows anything of his antece
dents.
