MEANS DEFENSE, NOT DEFIANCE.
Significance of Vote on EngIand,s
Naval Budget.

LONON, March 10-The papers this
morning all comment upon the over
whelming majority, ZIG votes, by
which the house of commons last even
ing adopted the vote for additional
men for the navy, thus ratifying the
governments naval programme.
The Daily News OiberaD thinks that
Mr.. Goschen's statement to the effect
that the naval programme had been
agreed upon last November, and was
not menace to the United States,
thus showing that the estimates were
framed for defense and not for def
ance, largely influenced the house.
The Times, commenting upon Mr..
Goschen's statement, is inclined to
think that recent events ought to have
modified the statements. Nobody has
a right to complain" says the Times,
eff the nation takes measures for her
own security when manifest dangers
spring UP around her."

NO MENACE TO US.
So Says Goschen, Regarding Eng
lands Navy Increase.

LONDON, March 9.-In the house of
commons today the civic lord of the
admiralty, Mr.. Austin Chamberlain, re-
plying to Mr. John Dillon, member of
East Mayo, anti-Parnellite, said there
was no foundation for the report that
a squadron of British warships was on
it's way to Curacao. The debate upon
the navy estimates was resumed. Mr.
Goschen, first lord of the admiralty
replying to criticism by Mr.. John
Redmond, said that it was absurd to
suggest that the increase in the navy
was intended TO menace the United
States. The naval programme, he said,
was settled. in November before the
Venezuelan question had arisen.

PASSING OF THE HORSE.
Thus Far Only the Cheaper Grade Has
Been Affected.

Thus Far Only the Cheaper Grade Has
Been Affected.
Diminishing the horseless carriage
from the inquiry, the question arises,
ito what extent, if at all, does the in
oreasing use of the bicycle affect the
sale and use of horses?" It is notori-
Gus fact that horses have been for two
or three years past selling for less and
ever dwindling values.
This query has been put to practical
horsemen, men who sell horses in this
and other cities, or who are otherwise
interested:
$40 what extent has the introduction
of the bicycle injured your business;
or how do you account for the depreci-
ated values of all grades of harness
horses?"
One of the first answers received was
from a dealer whose horse interests
are about equally divided between this
city and Chicago. In effect this is how
he looks at the matter. Driving horses
of certain grades are not lower in price
to any appreciate extent because Of the
wheel" 1t so happens that the intro
duction of the improved safety bicycle
was coincident with the introduction OF
power traction on surface roads all over
the country.
In New York and Chicago this entire
" closed demand for nearly 10000
horses annually. and in every other
large city in proportion. Thousands of
horses, averaging in value about S125,
were thereby rendered unstable for
surface traction.
But for this phase of the horse bust
ness the public would not now be i'm
pressed with the idea that the bicycle
is to blame. Speaking of Chicago, how
ever. he said: There certainly is in
our section one class of horse whose sale
is injured by the growing use of the
bicycle, and that is what you may call
the second class 'runabout' horse: and
in this respect what is true of Chicago
is true of New York and every other
place where horses are bought and sold
and used"
Regarding the saddle horse, no rid
ing school manager seemed to think
that the wheel made much difference.
One of them said: 81 have my average
number of patrons, and though many
of them own wheels and use them, they
have not given up their saddlers. If
there is any slight falling off in our
business attribute it to the recent hard
times, from which we seem to be only
now emerging, and not to the bicycle"
