Many Kotos for Sailors.
There yet remains to be made the trip
from Magdalena Bay to San Francisco,
the destination originally announced, a
matter of some 1100 miles, but it will not
bo begun until after target practice is
concluded and fleet drills are done. This
last jtne of tho journey will be a tour
of hollday.maklng. with stops at San
Diego, Ios Angeles, Santa Barbara and
Santa Cruz, where reception committees
are planning all manner of entertain
ments for officers and men. the latter
especially coming In for the greatest
amount of attention. The sailors will
find themselves heroes, every one. in the
eyes of their Western admirers, and are
promised a series of fetes which include
features ranging from gala balls, under
the patronage of exclusive social sets, to
prizefights rerereed by Champion James
J. Jeffries himself.
The California committee announces
that the uniform of the enlisted men,
far from being a bar to any place of
amusement, as has sometimes been the
ca.se In other places, will be a mark of
hop!table welcome all along the Pacific
Coast.
Targets to Be Set at Once.

llshed off the coast of Lower California
at once, according to the wireless dis
patches from Admiral Kvans, and the
various divisions of the fleet will be sent
out with big guns booming as soon as
they are ready.
Ixmg before the fleet passed through
Ihe Straits of Magellan the ordnance of
ficers or the IS ships, the turret captains
and heads of the various gun crews
were busy with the details of the coming
practice, and In the run from Callao to
Magdalena they completed the final ar
rangements. Two target practices are held each
vear In the Navy. Tho Spring practice,
which hits been completed by practically
all of the vessels of the Pacific fleet, and
which is about to be undertaken by the
fleet from the Atlantic, is known as the
"record practice," as the result of which
four trophies annually are awarded.
Trise money in large sums also is dis
tributed among the gun crews that make
the best scores at the targets. At the
Fall practice the prize money is the one
reward held out. There are fleet awards
of money, class awards for the best
work of ships In a given class and Indi
vidual ship awards, so that some money
is available for all good work, even if
it bo not the best in fleet or class.
Bronze Plai-ques for W inners.
The four trophies are bronze placques,
which are carried by the winning ships
in four different classes until other ships
wrest the same away at the Spring prac
tice. Tho trophies were provided by or
der of President Roosevelt and are highly
prized by the winning crews. Tho four
classes are: Battleships, cruisers, gun
boats and torpedo-boat destroyers.
In the battleship class are included the
state-namd armored cruisers of the
West Vlrgina and Maryland type, of
which there are now eight in commission
in the Pacific fleet. The battleship tro
phy is at present til possession of the Illi
nois, of the Atlantic, fleet, one of the
four of Admiral Kvans' fleet which still
carry 13-ineh guns In their main batter
ies, as against the high-calibered U-inch
rifles of the more modem ships. The
Maryland has Just made a record of
per cent of hits at the targets and the
naval enthusiasts along the coast already
are proclaiming her the winner of the
trophy In advance of the w-ork of any
of tin- ships of the big battle fleet.
Albany's Crow Is Confident.
The cruiser trophy is now in possession
of the crew of the protected cruiser Al
bany, which is in San Diego Harbor and
has just returned from Magdalena with
what is helieved to be a world's record
for rapid and accurate tire. The trophy
was won last year by the Albany's crew
while it was on the Boston, which now Is
out of commission. There seems little
doubt that the Albany will retain the tro
ph and the crew already is celebrating.
The gunboat trophy is possessed by the
Princeton and the destroyer trophy by
the Preble. On each of the trophy
placnues. which bear designs of naval
vessels In heavy sens or gun crews in
action, is the inscription:
Trophy for excellence in naval gunnery,
l'rejented hy direction of the President of
the t'nlled states to the vessel making the
lushest score In record target practice.
Kach year the name of the winning
ship is engraved on the trophy.

stops en route.
Taken primarily as a practice cruise

and ample and repeated opportunities
have been found for drills and naval
tactics as well as opportunities for care
ful and exacting seamanship in waters of
which American seamen are compara
tively not ' acquainted. Above all the
fleet practically has finished the trip
without an untoward incident of conse
quence and has arrived at Magdalena
Bay over two days ahead of her schedule
time.
Naval officials say there is genuine
cause for congratulation over the manner
in which the fleet has completed the trip
which was started with the parting best
wishes of the President, andi which is to
be welcomed at the Golden Gate by Sec
retary of the Navy Metcalf. Under very
favorable weather conditions target prac
tice at Magdalena Bay may be finished

SQUNDS THE. ALARM
Rosebery Warns Britain of the
Menace of Socialism.
PLEADS FOR UPPER HOUSE
Ex-Premier Would Prefer Protec
tion. Though Great Tyranny.
"While Parties Fight for Husks,
Socialists Get the Kernel.
LONDON, March 12. 'The active
menace of Socialism" with which Great
Britain is confronted was a prominent
and striking feature of Lord Rose
berry's address before the Liberal
league this afternoon. The ex-Premier
was discussing the necessity for
the league's unceasing1 support of
"sane imperialism," in which category
he included the maintenance of the
policy of free trade.
"Protection," Lord . Roseberry de
clared, "is a grea c evil, a great
tyranny and a great source of corrup
tion." The speaker foresaw, however,
a time when the present movement in
Parliament founded on Ideas of social
reform might lead to such enormous
pressure in the way of direct taxa
tion as to make the nation seek relief
by shifting a part of the burden to
the taxation of imports. The time
might come, but Lord Rosenerry said
he trusted to God it never would, when
the Liberals would be forced to choose
between allowing the Socialists to grain
the upper hand and allying themselves
with the party of protection in order
to defeat socialism.
Socialists Get the Kernel.
Of these two conditions he, for on,
without hesitation, would prefer pro
tection. This would be a great evil
and a source of corruption, but social
ism would mean the end of the em
pire, religious faith and freedom and
property.
In the elections of 1907, Lord Rose
berry went on to say, the country had
seen the Liberals and Conservatives
flying at each other's throats for the
husks and letting socialism slip away
with the kernel, namely, seats in Par
liament, and they had witnessed the
tragedy of the Liberals fighting under
the banner of "no second chamber" at
the very moment when a second cham
ber was most necessary in order to
combat socialism. Formerly Great Bri
tain had a strong second chamber,
backed by the V6to of the sovereign.
He continued:
Contract With United Stares.
The veto of the sovereign ha long since
disappeared, and now it Is sought to dc
away with the second chamber. Contrast
this with the conditions in the United
States, in the most democratic community
In the world. There you find a written con
stitution, not one syllable or letter of
which can be altered without Brave and
lengthy constitutional processes. You find
a Senate of overpowering authority and
you And a veto In the hands of the Presi
dent, not a veto that has fallen into de
suetude, but an active and vlcorous ele
ment in the constitution. Here we have
nothing but the feeble barrier of the hered
itary second chamber, which ft is now said
ought to be entirely abolished.
Would Preserve House of Lords.
I honestly say concerning; the menace of
Socialism, which, has reared its head in
this country during the last year, and which
is prepared to rear itself on every occa
sion acatn. that it strikes me as amazing;
th.t the Government at the present time
should embark on the policy of .abolishing
the only barrier remaining between it and
the people.
Lord Rosebery admitted that the
House of Peers needed reform, but it
is not such reform as Is suggested by
the present government.
CHANGES IN POSTAL BILL
House Kx tends Pneumatic Tube
Service and Slaps Railroads.
WASHINGTON, March 1?. The post
office appropriation bill had rough sailing
in the House of Representatives today. Its
progress was halted at every turn by
amendments, upon which there was
lengthy discussion. The attacks were
begun on the section relating to pneumatic
AXU PHOTOGRAPH OF MAGDALEXA
tube service which was forced to undergo
a change so that the extensions of such
service should not be confined to the
several cities named in the bill, but that
they should be made wherever the Postmaster-General
may think best.
The House was a unit for withholding a
portion of the pay to railroads for trans
portation of mails until a correct system
of weighing should be established, a pro
vision to that effect being incorporated in
the measure. Finally a vigorous but in
effectual fight was made on a proposi
tion by Goebel of Ohio to Increase by
$2,000,000 the appropriation for paving the
expenses of railway mail clerks while
traveling on business of the department.
Tho amendment was stpngly advocted
by Murdock of Kansaa.
Still other amendments were in sight
when the bill was laid aside for the day
and the House at 5:06 P. M., adjourned.
Five of the 25 pages of the bill remain
to be considered.

rency bill, and especially condemned the
