SENATOR FRYE ISN'T ALARMED.
Thinks We Could Easily Assemble . Fleet
Stronger than the Canadian Cutters.


WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.-It is not probable
that the Senate will take any action on the
alleged intention Of Great Britain to
strengthen her armed force on the great lax es
with war vessels under the guise OF revenue
cutters. Senator Frye OF Maine. Chairman OF
the Committee on Commerce and leading
member OF the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
said to day:
There is no necessity for the people OF this
country 10 be alarmed over tho construction
OF these Canadian revenue vessels. Even II
they are to be what it Is clamed-war vessels
under the guiss Of revenue cutters--there
need be no fear in the event OF hostilities
for am positive that can select twenty-nv
vessels on the great lakes that could. within
q very short time. be armed and equipped
better than the Canadian cutters are. and that
they could sail around the latter The finest
vessels in the world are built on the lax g. and
1t Won Id require very little time and expense
to make some OF then ilrst-class Fighting
ships J. believe that Great Britain has not
the slightest intention Of turning her now
revenue vessels into war ships"
Senator Frye acknowledged that there had
been some alarm. even among high officials Of
tho Government over tho construction OF the
revenue vessels nv Great Britain. but he had
not allowed any OF this feeling to influence
him In the matter.
