skill and labor in bringing it up to the
standard required. The demand applies to

presented to the manufacturers about eight
days ago, has been returned without any
action and this is regarded as point in the
favor of the workmen.

on Revision
SARATOGA, n. Y, May 27.--The Presby
terrain assembly yesterday reiterated a
former declaration in favor of the Bible in
the public schools. The committee on
publication reported, showing a great
amount of work in the missionary and
Sunday school line. Fraternal greeting
was received from the Baptist societies at
Chicago. The committee On freedmen
brought in q report that was the feature
OF the day 1t was on request that col
ored presbyteries be placed on the same
footing rs white ones, and the report was
against the request. DIR. Booth moved to
amend by granting the request.
The Color Line Obliterated.
The question was debated with good
deal OF vigor on both sides. 1t was said
in favor of the original report that the
freetmens board was doing specific
work, and to adopt Booths amendment
would be equivalent to abolishing the
board. On the otlferhand it was urged
that to deprive colored presbyteries
of the privileges accorded to the white
ones was unfair and impugned the man.

was taken amid much excitement and the
amendment adopted-l50 to 145.

make everything all right, however. The

Doings in Congress.
WASHINGTON CITY, May 27-The appro-
priation of S12, 900, 900 for three battle ships,
in the naval appropriation bill, was the
subject of a good deal of discussion in the
senate yesterday and also of character
istic proposition made by Blair. Cockrell
had moved an amendment striking out the
provision, and he called attention to Hale's
former remark that this was only n begin
ming; also to the report of the naval policy
board which declared that the United
States must maintain navy at least
equal in strength to the most powerful
navy in the world"
The Naval Board Criticised.
Hale said that it would be difficult to
find a senator or responsible offic ial who
Endorsed the report of this "policy board. :"
The report had not been accepted by the
secretary of the navy as laying out his pol
icy. The lordiy scheme laid out by that
board was hindering the Legitimate prog
ress of building up a respectable navy.
Cockrell then quoted from the re port of
the secretary of the navy recommending
the construction of seventeen bait leships,
twelve coast defenders, and twer ty-nine
unarmored vessels, at cost of aboI Sl35,
100000. The report of the policy board, he
said, was in accordance with the recon-
mendations of the army board for an ex-
penditure of St26 900, 900 for fortif cat ions
to terroriZe other nations instead OF setting
an example of peaceful arbitration to the
world
Blair's Proposition to England.
Blair moved to insert in the provision
for the three battle-ships the fol lowing:
But this provision shall not be available
until the government of Great Britain shall
have been requested by the presi lent to
withdraw all her naval forces from Amer
lean waters and to dismantle her naval
stations in both North and South Amer
lea and in adjacent islands, and shall have
declined or shall have neglected for one
year so to do" Blair said that if This was
not adopted the United States would
have to be prepared to repel force on the
sea He said a large proportion of the
British parliament favored abitrat on, and
why, he asked, should they not favor dis
armment:
a Time When We Must Fight.
Hawley said that there was evidently
some time in the history of the world when
in very shame, for the sake of manhood
and decency and patriotism, for the sake
of God and country, people must fight.
And those We're the days that LITE people
out of their sensuality-out of ii cir wor
ship of the almighty dollar He W as in IA
vor of peace, but proposition fire m a ma
ton already disarmed to Great Britain to
disarm was simply ludicrous. Blair's
amendment was rejected.
