President's Enemies in Sen
ate Shudder at Thought
of Possible Cost.
BACON IS CHIEF MOURNER
Ably Seconded hy Hale In Piscus
sion Attending Consideration of
Naval Appropriation Bill Bev
erldge and lxdj?e Optimists.
WASHINGTON, April 21. The rfportrd
purpose of the President to send the
flf-M of battleships now on the Fact tic
4'oat. around the world, was the basis
of a discussion in the Senate today when
the naval appropriation biil was taken
up for consideration.
Mr. Bacon, of Georgia, asked what
would be the cost of this- cruise around
tha world. Mr. Hale, chairman of the
committee on naval affairs, replied that
It would be difficult to state the cost,
but be was satisfied that the wear and
tear on, the fleet would be very groat.
The cost, he said would not be known
for a year. He referred to the cruise
as a "spectacular performance."
Mr. Bacon agreed that It was a spec
tacular performance, "but," he added,
'it may be a very dangerous per
formance." Mr. Hnlo disclaimed any
purpose- to charge that no fiood would
come of the trip around the world. He
referred to it as a spectacular per
formance in the senne "that it was most
re mar ka hie and wonderful."
Bacon Wields Hammer.
Mr. Bacon said he hoped the report
that the fleet is to go around the world
would prove incorrect. He not only
looked upon it as dangerous, but also
as expensive, savin? it would cost al
most a million dollars to take the fleet
through the Sues Canal alone.
Mr. Beveridjre. inquired whether there
are facilities in the Pacific for "making'
necessary repairs to the fleet," and Mr.
Hale replied that that was one of the
questions that would have to be taken
tip. "It would," he said, "cost tens and
tens of millions to supply those facil
ities." Sees War In Future.
Mr. Money made an extended speech
on the danger of war if the Philippines
are held by this country, saying that all
nations that have had dependencies have
been obliged to maintain great navies.
The 7.5OO.O0O people of the Philippines,
he said, had cost the country several
hundred millions already, and that money
would produce no material result of ad
vantagA to this country but should be
charged up to "the mere pleasure of rul
ing other people."
Mn Money instanced the San Francisco
school troubles as an example of the
rapidity with which war clouds might
cvershadow the country.
Would Prop Philippines.
"If we drop the Philippines," he said,
'we drop the chance of war In that
ocean." He was sure there was no
treaty right on the part of Japan that
would justify the attitude of that nation
on the San Francisco school question, but
Japan "was ready to provoke a quarrel."
Mr. Money predicted that in 10 years
the United States "would have to fight
somebody," and he paid a compliment to
Japanese valor and physical endurances
"Whenever we tackle that little nation,"
he declared, "we will have all we can
do."
"You will have to keep that fleet there."
he added, "If you are to hold the Phil
ippines." Irfwlso Relieves .Monotony.
Ve fending the policy of sending the
fleet of battleships to the Pacific Ocean,
Senator Iodge said great good Is already
resulting from the long cruise and it Is
teaching the fleet how to maintain Itself
away from shipyards, by making repairs
through its own mechanics on board.
"It is not enough." he said, "in a navy
to have the units the best in the world:
it Is necessary to have an efficient fleet,
and we have never until this year pro
duced an efficient fleet. I think this
voyage has done more for the Navy than
anything that has been undertaken."
He declared that even should the Phil
ippines he abandoned, that action would
not make any difference In the need of a
fleet.
Beverldpe Wins Applause.
Senator Beveridgc advocaied a greater
Navy than the United States now has.
The policy of the Democrats, he said,
favors keeping the Philippines until the
people there are fitted for self-government;
in any event it will be necessary'
to keep the islands for many years. Be
fore the fleet started, he said, there had
been talk of war, but after it reached
Pacific maters such talk decreased and
has now almost vanished.
Upon Mr. Beveridge concluding his re
marks there was an outburst of applaud
Jn the galleries, and Mr. Hale arose.
"Now," said Mr. Hale, "let us see if
we can make some progress with the
bill."
Includes Retired Officers.
The Senate spent almost two hours
rending the bill and discussing its pro
visions. Th only amendment of im
portance agreed upon was one including
retired officers of the Navy in the bene
fits of the an per cent salary Increase
provided for officers on the active list.
FAVORS FOUR BATTLESHIPS
Senator Piles Will Offer Amendment
lo Xavy Bill.
WASHINGTON. April 21. -Notwithstanding
the fact that the sentiment of
the Senate is believed to be opposed to
any increase in th House programme for
the building of two battleships, an ef
fort ill be made to double that number.
Senator Piles, of "Washington, has pre
pared an amendment to the naval ap
propriation bill providing for the con
struction of four ships in accordance with
the recommendations of President Roose
velt. This amendment will be offered
unless there is a change of plan when
the bill is takpn uj tomorrow.
It is said that there will be votes for
the amendment on both sides of the

developed for the increase cannot be ascertained.
ALLOWS .NO MORE SHADOWING
Houe Bill Restricts l"se of Secret
Service Detectives.
WASHINGTON. April 21 The House
committee on appropriations has Inserted
in th sundry civil bill, which will likely
bp rt ported to the HOuse on Thursday
of this week, a clause prohibiting the use
of any money appropriated by the bill
for the secret service in carrying out any
pecret work other than the guarding of
the President and the detection and pre
vention of counterfeiting. The insertion
of this clause was prompted by com
plaint, oft-repeated, that the secret serv
ice wax being usfd by the various de
partments "in shadowing" and other de
tective work not contemplated by the
law.
WILL SIGN LIABILITY BILL
Roosevelt Confident It Will Stand
Fire in "ourt.
WASHINGTON. April 21. As a result
of an opinion rendered to the President
by Attorney-General Bonaparte at the
tabinet meeting today, it is believed the
President will sign the employers lia
bility bill. He accepted the opinion of
the Attorney--General that the bill is con
stitutional and has waived any suspicion
that he might have had to the contrary.
The President is confident that the bill
will stand the test in the courts.
The bill was not received from the
Attorney-General's office until after 6
o'clock this evenirur. and consequently
will not be laid before the President
until tomorrow.

SAYS CKITICS ARE VXJVST.
Xoled Authority Declares That Ship
for Ship It Stands Second
Only to England's.
BOSTON, April 21. In an Interview pub
lished hero today. Sir -William Henry
White, who was for nearly 20 years the
reputed designer of all British warships,
comments on recent criticisms of the
American Navy. After declaring that the.
criticisms are unfounded in fact, and sup
plementing this declaration by a long
and tchnlcal explanation. Sir William
says:
"There is one thing more that I would
like to say, and I think it is vital. I have
known the American Navy from the start.
It is not generally known that the modern
American Navy started with the purchase
of two of my designs from the Arm
strongs. That was in JS85. From these
designs the Charleston and the Baltimore
were built.
"The first thing I want to say in this
connection is that you have naval archi
tects, in my judgment, capable as any
in the world. The second thing I want to
say is that your shipbuilding yards are
quite equal to any we have in their
equipment and management and all that.
"And the restilt is that, in my opinion,
you have a fleet that, ship for ship, com
paring the ships designed at a given date
and tfiat is the only fair comparison is
equal to anything the world contains.
Next to the British navy I think jour
navy is the best in the world."
LOEB WANTS RETRACTION

common stock of the road standing
in his name only 100 shares, enough to
enable him to qualify as a director,
are his, and he denies approaching
anyone regarding street railway legis
lation. The unnamed Senator, also referred
to by Mr. Sims, who is Senator New

munication, declaring that the stock in
his name was simply held as trustee,
and that he had never participated In
legislation relating to the street rail
ways of Washington.

mits .Making Evidence.
WASHINGTON. April 21. The cross
examination of Woodford L. Harlan, for
merly a clerk in the General Land Of
fice, was the feature today In the Hyde-Benson-Dlmohd-Schnetder
land - fraud
trial. J. C". Campbell, of San Francisco,
attorney for Benson, drew from the Gov
ernment's witness the fact that he often
told Benson falsehoods in order to se
cure evidence for the Government. Har
lan admitted that tinder the instructions
of Secret Service Agent Burns he prac
tically demanded money from Benson,
instead of Benson offering to bribe him.

WASHINGTON. April 21. The con
ference report on the bill to increase

ABOUT 100 SALOONS OUT
Cairo Stands by Liquor Four .Other
Cities Go DryOnly One Chicago

tireatlv Aid Canvass.
CHICAGO. April 21. The saloon forces
were generally successful in the 40 or
more towns and villages of Illinois which
voted on the local option question today.
Definite figures are lacking in many
cases, but it seems certain that not more
than 100 saloons were voted out of busi
ness. The larger communities almost
without exception retain their licensed
dramshops.
Cairo, the largest city In which the
question was an issue, gave the saloons
a majority of 3362. The principal excep
tions to the general result were Effing
ham. Thebes. Pinckneyville. and Napier
vllle. Some 36 saloons lost their licenses
in these four cities.
In Cook County, 12 of the villages bor
dering Chicago balloted for or against
the liquor interests. In only one, .how
ever, was there a change from previous
conditions. Barington going "'"dry" by a
small plurality. Ten others voted to
retain their saloons and one decided not
to admit the dramshops.
PINCKNEYVILLE. 111.. April 21
Pinckneyville was today added to the
list of "dry" cities. The anti-saloon
forces paraded the streets and the
schools were closed because of the ab
sence of pupils who were participating
in the parade.
TELLS HIS STORY AGAIN
Gallagher Repeats Testimony of
Bribery in Trolley Deal.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 21 James L.
Gallagher, who, according to his own
testimony, was a "go-between" between
the Board of Supervisors, of which he
was a member, and Abraham Ruef, to
day for the third time in court told of
the corruption of the former Board of
Supervisors, in the trial of Tirey L.
Ford, general counsel for the United
Railroads. He was subjected to a se
vere cross-examination by A. A. Moore,
Sr.. chief counsel for Ford, who probed
deeply into Gallagher's life and brought
out all his political history and am
bitions. Mr. Moore asked:
"Then if you were not a 'higher up,'
you were as high as you could get?"
"Yes." replied the witness.
Mr. Moore on one occasion asked
Gallagher if he "hadn't been doctored
up." Witness emphatically denied this
imputation.
"How soon. after going into office did
you organize your"' board for plunder
ing?" asked Mr. Moore; but an objec
tion was sustained.
Gallagher admitted that he personal
ly wa in favor of the trolley franchise,
and would have voted for it. even if
there had been no money consideration
in it. The witness strongly objected to
the word "bribing," as used for his
transactions. . v
Daniel G. Coleman, another of the
grafting Supervisors, also told of his
acceptance of a bribe, and was con
fronted with the affidavit signed by
himself and other Supervisors, denying
that they had committed any crime. He
said he understood Ruef prepared this
document.
The Bulletin says that ex-Supervisor
L. A. Rea, a member of the boodllng
Board, is anxious to get rid of the
money paid to him as bribes by the
public-service corporations. He has
made application to the District Attor
ney and to the Presiding Judge in the
hope that they might suggest some
way to get the money, amounting to
$1285, out of his possession. Thus far,
they have been unable to help him.
IS MRS CARMIN DEAD?
Wilkins' Lawyer Hints That She
Was Not Murdered.
OAKLAND. Cal.. April 21. Attorney
Hugh Mclsaacs, counsel for Mark A.
Wilkins. who is charged with the mur
der of his putative wife, Mrs. Verine
Carmin created surprise this morning
in Oakland when he closed the case for
the defense without offering any testi
mony. Last week "Wilkins was shown a picture
of Mrs. L. L. Carmin by Mclsaacs. and
at the time he expressed a doubt ns to
whether the picture was that of the
woman with whom he was living in Elm
hurst and whom he is now accused of
murdering. Attorney Mclsaacs. when in
terviewed this morning, would not say as
to whether he would contend later on
that the woman with whom Wilkins was
living was not Mrs. Carmin. but he in
timated that a sensation might be sprung
in the event that Wilkins is found guilty
by the jury which is now trying him.
"What would you say,' queried Mc
lsaacs. "If I should bring Mrs. Carmin
Into court alive and well?'
In the event that it was established
that the woman of whose murder Wil
kins Is charged was not Mrs. Carmin. the
case would have to be dismissed and it
might be ruled that Wilkins was once In
jeopardy and would be freed on any
charge In connection with the death of
the woman with whom he was living.
INQUIRY INTO PAPER TRUST
(Continued From First Pace.)
at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel today with
an exceptionally larpe attendance of mem
bers from every, section of the country.
Aside from the transaction of purely rou
tine business, the most important action
taken was the presentation and adoption
of an address asking the President and
the Congress to "grant immediate relief
from the exactions of combinations of
paper-makers." The address as adopted
is as follows:
"Representatives of 774 daily newspa
pers gathered at the annual meeting of
the Associated Press respectfully ask the
President and Congress to grant imme
diate relief from the exactions of combi
nations of papermakers. In September,
1907. and again in November, 1907. the at
tention of the authorities was directed to
the excessive prices then demanded by
the paper combination. Immediately upon
the assemblage of Congress. 20 or more
bills, aiming to correct these conditions
and to put paper and pulp on the free
list, were introduced and referred to the
ways and means committee. Persistent
efforts to obtain a hearing have been re
fused. Dilatory tactics have been em
ployed to prolong present conditions and
to carry over to another session of Con
gress every proposition designed for re
lief. All newspapers .here represented pro
test against delay.
"Attention Is also directed -against the
false reports of news print paper prices
which were recently furnisned to Con
gress by the Director of the Census Bu
reau. The newspapers here represented
use approximately 80 per cent of the news
print paper consumed in the United
States.- We denounce the quotations sub
mitted to Congress as misleading and un
worthy of credence. The reiteration of
the accuracy of these figures of the di
rector after the error had been called to
public attention, tends to shake public
confidence and respect for statistics thus
compiled."
Five directors whose terms had expired
were re-elected as follows: Charles H.
Grasty,- Baltimore Kvening News: Wil
liam R. Nelson. Kansas City Star; W. L.
McLean. Philadelphia Bulletin: G. M.
Thompson. St. Paul Dispatch, and Adolph
S.- Ochs. New York Times.
No changes in the present rules and reg
ulations of the service were made.
The Associated Press and the American
Newspaper Publishers Association will sit
down to a joint banquet tomorrow night
at the Waldorf-Astoria, at which William
J. Bryan will be the chief speeker.
INVESTIGATE PAPEK COMBINE
Federal Grand Jury Will Trobe Ma
nila Makers.
NEW YORK, April 21. It became
known today that a Federal rrand jury
Is about to bejrin an investigation of sev
eral of the lar?e manufacturers of ma
nila wrapping paper' in this state. The
purpose of the inquiry is to ascertain
whether or not the manufacturers are
conducting their business under jn agree
ment in restraint of trade and violation
of the Sherman anti-trust law. The offi
cers . of some manufacturing companies
who are not affiliated with the Interna
tional Paper Company have been
subpenaed to appear before the Federal
grand Jury in this city tomorrow.
This investigation is believed to have
no connection with the Government's in
quiry into' the affairs of the so-called
"paper trust" and it is understood, does
not involve those companies which make
a specialty of white print paper for
newspapers.
BRIGANDS DRIVEN BACK

Persian Expedition Fails to Appear,
Governor Fearing to Attack
Wild Mountaineers.
ST. PETERSBURG, April 21. News
was received here this afternoon to the
effect that the Persian brigands who
yesterday advanced to attack the Rus
sian forces In Persian territory, were
driven back with heavy losses and re
tired to the mountains. The Russian
detachment from Belesuvar has again
advanced a short distance into Per
sian territory, where it awaits rein
forcements. There is no sign as yet of the her
alded Persian expedition to aid the
Russians. It seems that the Persian
troops quartered at Tabriz are barely
adequate to preserve order in that city
and they are said to be ill-disciplined
and that the Governor of Tabriz is
afraid to send them out against the
mountaineers.
SENDS MORE TROOPS TO SCENE

TtFUS, April 21. On account of the
threatening situation on the Persian fron
tier and the urgent demand for reinforce
ments received from the commanders of
the Russian forces in that district, 2000
men have been sent from here into the
disturbed territory. These reinforcements
will take several days to reaca the scene
of hostilities, which is 60 miles from the
u ear est railroad point through a difficult
country. -
No further news from the commanders
of the detachments at Belesuvar and Shi
rin, which are menaced by the Kurdish
brigands, has been received here. In
formation has come in that communica
tion along an important trade route
southward from the Caspian Sea has been
interrupted by an uprising of the bandit
population. As a result, caravans are
afraid to venture out of Lenkoran.-

WASHINGTON, April 21. Figuring
on the basis furnished by the returns
of the first" two quarters, the deficiency
in the Postoffiee Department of the
current fiscal year will exceed $15,000.
000. In a report of postal receipts and
expenditures issued today the net de
ficiency for the - first six months of
Lthe current fiscal year is estimated at

plus of $1,747,145.

TORT VR ED BY NEWSPAPER MEN'
De Sagan Tells Pathetic Tale of Suf
- ferlng In New York.
PARIS. April 21. Prince Helle de Sagan
gars an interview to a reporter of the
Journal at the bouse of a friend last
night before he left for Naples, in which
he admitted that he was going to Italy to
meet Madam Anna Gould, formerly Coun
tess de Castellane, to whom he is reported
to be engaged, but he refused to give any
intimation as to when and where the mar
riage would take place, saying "the future
is in the hands of God."
The Prince described his experiences In
America as "torture." He said he was
everywhere pestered by a legion of re
porters and a horde of photographers,
and that the most odious and most ridicu
lous things were printed about him and
Mme. Gould.
"They even announced our marriage had
occurred secretly in New Jersey," he said,
"which was as false as the reported fami
ily dinners at which my fate was dis
cussed." He declared also that even a high pre
late of the Catholic church took notice
of his presence by issuing a manifesto
against divorce, and this induced the
clergy each Sunday to preach violent ser
mons against him and Mme. Gould.

received a summons to attend the Palace
of Justice today to make depositions be
fore the examining magistrate in whose
court the case was to be considered.
The magistrate waited all day for the
Prince to appear, finally learning indi
rectly that Prince Helie had- departed
last evening for Italy. It is likely that
the absence of the Prince will protract
the proceedings considerably.
