He Worked Arduously for Development of the Navy Yard. During his vieit in New London Monday, Secretary of the Navy Jo- sephus Daniels strongly intimated says the New London Day that had it not been for former Congressman Mahan there would now be no navy yard left here out of which to create a sub- marine station. Secretary Daniels’ first words of greeting to Postmaster Mahan indicated his recollection of the former’s effort to promote the welfare of the New London naval base while a member of the house of representa- tives. In the early days of Congressman Mahan's term, a bill came up which proposed to abolish the New London navy yard, together with several oth- er similar stations. Mr. Mahan im- mediately inaugurated an active op- position to this particular eection of the bill. Evidently the clause referring to the New London yard was strick- en from the bill. Thus by a close call the plant now to be converted into a submarine station was saved. Subsequently Congressman Mahan introduced a bill to appropriate $1,- 000,000 for the establishment of a steel armor plate plant at the navy vard. No action has ever been taken on this project and of course imn view of the submarine station coming, none now will be. Commenting on the location of the submarine station here, former Con- gressman Mahan said Tuesday: “I am deeply gratified at the action of Sec- retary Daniels and I believe it is only one more .proof of the marked ability he has shown in his official duties. For years I have felt that the import- ance of the New London yard had not been properly presented to the department at Washington for it seemed to me that if its advantages were fully understood, there would be no delay in making use of it.” “When elected to congress I took it upon myself to do everything possi- bit for the preservation and develop- ment of the New London station, real- izing, I think, the great importance to Connecticut of such a base. I am in clined to believe I made Secretary Daniel’s life almost unbearable for a time. Naturally, therefore, it is very pleasing to me that the vard has not only been saved, but is to be largely increased in the extent of its use. LAUNDRYMAN IN JAIL. Seventy-year Old Chinese Charged with Assaulting 13-year Old Girl. Kwong Ning, a New London laun- dryman about years of age, was ar- rainged in the police court there Tues- day forenoon charged with having committed a felonious assault upon Mary Snitkin, the 13 year old daughter of Max Snitkin, a cobbler on Bank street. Attorneys Hollandersky and Arthur Anderson, the latter of Stonimgton, appeared as counsel for Kwong Ning and the former made a statment to the court to the effect that he and his associate had been called into the case late yesterday afternoon and that they had not had time to confer with their client, so it was asked that the case should go over a few days for a conference with Kwong Ning. The date fixed for the hearing was next Saturday. A bond of 32,500 was fixed for the appearance of Kwong Ning, but he could not furnish a surety and went to jail. Chinese friends of the accused were in court and they will endeavor to get surety by which Kwong may be released next Saturday if proba- ble cause is then found for holding him for trial in the superior court at the September term. The Snitkin child was ngt in court her condition being all to be sych that it was not deemed prudent to have her there.
