between the mayor and city council by
reason of the turning down by the

House Refuses to Reduce Num-
Der of Battleships,
Although Public Buildings All
Over the Country
MUST STAND STILL.
More Guns. More ArmOr and
More Extravaganza
With a Shortage of 100000
600 in the Treasury.

Washington, May 5.-The opponents
of four battleships sustained an over
whelming defeat in the house today on
the proposition to accept the senate
amendment to the naval appropriation
bill reducing the number to two.
Mr.. Savers CDem., Tex.), ex-chair-
man of the appropriation committee,
made the motion and in its support ar
gued that the question presented was
purely a business one.
The direct appropriations for the next
fiscal year, as they passed the house,
he said, were s505, 600. 600, while the total
estimated revenue was but S464,000, 600.
If no provision were made for the sink
ing fund $3.50 600 O0O) the tital outstand-
ing direct obligations would be S455. oO0-
600, leaving a working balance of So
100000. But. in addition. contracts
We're authorized in the sundry civil bill,
naval and Qualifications bill, aggregat-
ing, SEE, GOO. 600.
In other words there would be nine
millions of dollars to meet almost a
hundred millions of expenditures With
this situation staring congress in the
face. he argued that it was wise to re-
trench.
Mr. Boutelle, chairman of the naval
committee who replied to Mr.. Sayers,
thought it unfortunate that these
business facts had not been brought
into the house when we were under
taking to regulate the boundary lines
in South America and in other ways as
sorting the primacy of the republic.
Not a suggestion was made then that
less than four should be authorized
At that time also, he said, he had

the senate would agree to four ships;
indeed, the fear was that the upper
branch of congress would go further

country, but ne desired first to be con

Mr. BOutelle concluded the debate
with a brief protest against placing all
the onus of extravagant appropriation
on the naval committee.
The vote was taken by yeas and
nays.
Mr.. sayers' motion was defeated, 81
to 141.

fuptcy to cases OF fraud Mr.. Hender-
son Of Iowa then interrupted saying.
"Oh, we recognize that it might help
some manufacturer in Massachusetts
with that out. You would not be will
ing to consent TO anything Of that
kind"
This half sneering reply aroused Mr..
Miller and he answered 1t with a yehe~
ment defense of the west and a glow
ing tribute to its people. He said:
Mr.. Chairman I wish to say to the
gentleman from Iowa. that / was born
in Maine my people lived in Maine
they are New England people and i
have no prejudIces against MaSsachu-
sets, such as he seems to think in his
assertion. I have no prejudice against
Massachusetts as a state. or against
any other state or any other part Of
New England but i do say that no
Dill should be passed her, By this house,
which is an instrument of oppression
and an engine in the hands Of the cred
it0rs of the country in addition to those
already given by the states to Cypress
the people OF the western country Who
forsOOth, happen TO be in debt.
The people Of the west are as honor
able as upright as correct in their
business transactions as any other peo-
PIE in the united States OF in the world
But unfortunately they have become
involved in debt to some extent, and it
is not right that under those conditions
which exist among them an additional
burden Of oppression or engine of OPP
preston shall be given into the hands
of the creditor class Of the country to
harass and Cypress our people in the
future.
IT say that this bill. IN all Of its rea-
lures, is a bill for the purpose, and that
alone that was announced here by the
gentleman from Massachusetts, a few
moments ago. and If the House passes
il it viii never become a law but even
if it should pass and it never became
law it viii be one of the most unpop-
ular acts that ever enanated from a
Republican house, and for that I shall
be exceedingly sorry.
Mr.. Chairman ] am in favor Of a
bankruptcy bill, both voluntary and in
voluntary. but I want the bill to be
just in its terms. I want the involun-
tary sections declaring acts of bank
ruptcy to be limited to acts of fraud,
such as might be grounds for attach
ment. BY the terms of this bill as 1T
now stands, innocent men, who in the
ordinary course of business might pay
every dollar of their debts, may be
thrown into bankruptcy and irretriev-
ably ruined; and wSN<se than all, under
its provisions although a man may have
acted honestly, notably in the mat
ter of preferences, after he has been
ruined and his property taken ne can
not be discharged from his debts UNI

bill is materially amended. I can not
in justice to my people support it, and
