The opponents of four battle ships sus-
tanned an overwhelming defeat in the
House yesterday on the proposition to &C
cept the Senate amendment to the naval
appropriation bill reducing the number to
two. Mr.. Sayers CTex), ex-chairman of the
appropriations committee. made the motion
and supported his plea for economy with
figures as to the condition of the treasury
for the next fiscal year.
Mr.. Cannon, the chairman of the appro-
priations committee, ably seconded Mr..
Savers. He appealed to his side of the
House, declaring the appropriations of this
Congress would mortgage the future rev.
eEues of the government $160GO,OU, and
that, inasmuch as the next Congress could
rot write new revenue bin on the statute
bocks inside of eighteen months, money
would have to be borrowed by the incoming
republican administration to meet these
obligatiors.
These figures. however, did not terrify the
House. and, after some pertinent remarks
by Mr.. Boutelle calling attention to the
humiliating spectacle the country would
present in view Of the present foreign com
plications, II poverty were pleaded as a
reason for reducing the number of battle
ships, and some remarks by Mr. CUMMINGS
urging the propriety Of standing firm
against the Senate. the House voted III TO
81 to concur In the Senate amendments.
The bill was sent back to conference.

There was a decrease in the mortality of
the District over 81 per cent as compared
with the previous week. The annual death
rate fell accordingly from 30 to LILO
while during the corresponding period of
last year the rate was at DC the normal
point. According to the reports received
at the health department, there were 80
deaths, against 116 by the last report

ton exceeded that Of the white by Is per
cent.
Accompanying these health conditions the
meteorological reports show a rise In the
barcustrical state of from 1884 to a mean
actual of 30.0S. From GO the relative hu-
Nudity rose to 81, with a rain fall of is of

terday afternoon and will report to the
board at its meeting next Friday.
The committee will not make any recon-

Of the differences existing between Dr.
Kerr and the staff. In this it was unsuc-

Into any agreement whatever. The COM
mittee will, therefore. submit report de-
claring its inability to make peace and 1t
will then remain for the board of direc-
tors to act. 1t is generally admitted that a
resolution will be presented to the board
declaring that the office CT surgeon-in-chief
Is vacant, but whether this will be passed
or lot is a serious question. Sucn a reso-
luton would require a vote OF two-thirds
Of the directors to pass 1t, and as there are

two affirmative votes would be needed.

rUmor was true or net, and was told by
Mr Timothy Hayes, turnkey, that the re-
port was false, and that everything there
was all right. This morning. however
Capt. Billy Smith, city sergeant, told The

passing strange how fanatlcal some
people are regarding religion and

differ with them are asserted to be
in error. "If you don't believe as

vote as | do, the country is ruin.
ed" are fair samples of opinions
that are frequently heard and read.
The following extract from the
writings of one of the grandest
men who ever lived and died 10 this

should be read and needed by all,
especially by the Il am right and
you are wrong fanatics:
"Wbat is truth to ME- is not truth
to ANOTHER. The same arguments
and evidences that convince one
mind make no impression on auoth
Ell. This difference is in men at
their birth. No man ia entitled
positively TO assert that HE is right,
where other men equally intrlli-
gent and equally well-lnformed
hole directly the Opposite opinion.
Each thinks it impossible for the
other TO be sincere, and each, an to
that, is equally in error. WHAT is
TRUTH ? was profound que ton {;
the most suggestive one ever put to
man. Many beliefs of former and
present times seem lncomprehen~
sible. They startle US with a new
glimpse into the human soul, that

the more we note its workings
Here is a man superior to UT eff in
