Rear-Admiral
William
Snowden
Sims,
aged
77,
wartime
commander
of
the
United
States
fleet
In
European
waters,
died
of
a
heart
attack
here
yesterday.
He
taught
ttie
American
nayy
how
to
shoot.
He
was
for
more
.than
20
years
one
of
the
most
eruptive,,
and
at
the
same
time,
perhaps
one
of
the
most
constructive
flgmes
ever
Identified
wlah
the
naval
establishment
ot
the
United
States.
Unable,
apparently,
to
abide
by
the
tradltlpn
that
a
naval
officer
should
execute
orders
and
hold
his
icngue,
Admlrat
Sims
was
almost
constantly
in
enough
hot
water
to
float
a
dreadnaught,
and
several
times,
figuratively
speaking,
h'.
was
badly
scalded;
yet
the
merit
behind
his
attacks
on
almost
every
branch
of
the
navy,
and
the
aud
acity
of
the
methods
he
employed
to
launch
,them
would
invariably
win
for
him
thejsupport
of
a
sym
pauieuiiOucQr

and
thus
it
was
that
the
much-feared
icono-

There
was
nothing
precocious
about
the
Admiral's
talent
for
thj
sea.
He
had
no
seafaring
ante-
cdehts
on
either
side,
and
display
ed
no
Interest
for
the
navy
as
a
boy.
Ihere
had
for
several
years
bee,i
difficulty
in
securing
Candidates
for
Annapolis,
and
when
the
Con
gressman
in
Sims'
district
back
in
1875,
began
looking
for
a
likely
boy
to
nominate
for
the
training
school,
only
three
responded,
one
Being
Sims'
older
brother.
Competitive
examinaijons
were
held,
but
the
successful
candidate
failed
to
pass
the
physical
tests,
and
Sims
brother
was
ruled
out
be
cause
he
was
too
oia.
It
was
then
that
the
future
admiral
decldM
to
try
his
luck
and
he
passed
by-
e
merest

He
found
the
work
more

he

anticipated,
