Secretary Folger had a consultation to day
regarding the present financial situation and
the condition of the New York money mar

cies It is proposed that Secretary Folgers
annual report shall contain recommends
ton for legislation on this subject and that
the Presidents message will endorse the rec
omplendation to the end that the Secretary's
powers and privileges in case of tight
money market shall be clearly defined by law
and not left entirely to his discretion, as is

regard to the Brooklyn navy yard. It is I'M
derstood that Secretary Chandler will en-
dorse the recommendations of the commit
tee in his annual report, preferring to meet
the demand for less extravaganza by reducing
the expenses of running the yard to a mini
mum and at the same time preserving the
property Of the government.
