GETS BOTH SHIPS.
Newport News to Construct the Kear-
sarge and Her Mate Also.
HERBERT TO THE PRESIDENT
Long Communication setting Forth
the Reasons for Navy Department
courage Low bidding.

WASHINGTON. ID. g.. December d.
Secretary Herbert to-day, with the ap-
proval Of the President, awarded the con-
tract for the construction OF battleships
Nos and 0he Kearsarge and her un.
named matej 10 the Newport News ship
building and Dry-Dock Company, Of New
port News. Va. at its bid Of 81, 5000 for
building each ship. according to plans
prepared by the Navy Department.
The Secretary closes long communi-
cation TO the President setting forth his
reasons for taking this course instead OF
awarding one to San Francisco, and the
greatly increased cost Of accepting the
propositions OF the Cramps, a. follows:
ITO me IL seems clear that the depart
ment cannot undertake to say that a bid
by responsible and competent company,
fairly made after due consideration. Is
lower than fair price for such work
This company Is bidding not only for
building one ship but FOR building both.
and IL insists upon its right 70 build
both. For the government 10 reject the
bid under these circumstances. and insist
upon paying a higher price for the ships,
or for one Of them 10 be built elsewhere.
on any such ground as that the bid Of
the Newport News company IS below the
market price. would be ruinous policy.
The government Is entitled to have its
ships built at the lowest prices at which
it can procure the doing Of the work,
and this policy would dictate the encour-
agement Instead Of the encouragement Of
low bidding
