LORD BERESFORD'S RESIGNATION.
Io>»ow, January 27, Lord Charles Beresford, speaking last night at Marylcbone, said the resignation of his position as junior Lord of the Admiralty was because of Lord George Hamilton, the First Lord of the Admiralty, overruling the advice and opinions of naval experts. He further declared that until the suggested reforms were carried out there was no real organisation m the navy m the event of war breaking out, and even so important a matter as the establishment, of coaling stationshad been neglected. The "Times," criticising the speech, says the picture of naval inefficiency and disorganisation is appalling. The "Daily Standard" censures Lord Charles Beresford for resigning, and says his action is not justified by the reasons given.
