The secretary made bis statement at an executive session of the committee after the official stenographes bad been re quested to raise their pens. It is the hope of the depart ment, he said, to build the greatest sea fighting machine ever devised, equipped with a broadside, of 14 inch guns of the new type, and .to cost approximately tl8.000.000. Were it not for the fact that the est s now being made with the new gun have not been completed, be said, the department would ask for ahipa of 23,000 tons displace ment, or even 30,000 tona, this year, instead of 27.000 tons. The total amount carried in tbe bill will be about $136,000,000, a decrease of $10,000,000 from last year, which carried appropriations for some abnormal expenditures. Record Price for Live Hogs. Ilogs touched $10.10 at the Union Stockyards in Portland this week, the highest price preached ib the United States. A bunch of 92 extra good hogs averaging 19G pounds brought tbe top figure. While walking along a road near Willamina, an unarmed man saw two cougars cross it onlv a little ahead of him, one after the other. A man in Los Angeles joined 20 churches in a week in order to borrow money of the preachers. This is not a new method of swind ling, but this fellow has probably made a record run of it.
