NAVAL BILL PASSES.
-Four Days Acrimonious Debate
Concluded.
NAVAL COMMITTEE DEFEATED ON
SEVERAL POINTS.

The senate Bill Creating Grade of Adj
mirsI Passed As An Amendment
House Refuses To Create Grade of
Vice Admirsl- -Proposftion 10 In
crease Price Of Armor Defeated.
Washington, February 23.-The naval
appropriation bill finally passed the House
this afternoon after four days scrimoni-
ous debate, most Of which wGs spent upon
the question of re-habiiitstIng the naval
academy and the proposition to
increase the maximum price to to
paid for arnor plate TO es45 per ton,
the existing law limiting 1t to $500.
Upon both propositions the naval COM
n,ittee suffered signal defeats. The
plant was ruled out upon point Of order,
but after a ranoorous debats the price to
be paid for armor was cut down from
s545. the prico which the committee In
sisted was being paid for the new Krupp
armor, to t4s5. and proviso wns added
also precluding the government from
pay Ing more than wss paid by any other
forei gn government for similar armor.
An other victory over the COMMITTEES
was secured by the adoption Of pro-
vision to tho naval bill creating the rank
OF admiral Of the navy. This was accom-
plished by MIR. Moody Of Massachusetts,
who offered copy OF the Senate bill
creating this rank, as an amendment TO
the naval bill The amendment was
clearly subject to the point Of order
against II raised by MIR. Boutelle, but the
sentiment Of the House was SO apparently
unanimous in favor Of the amendment
that he withdrew the point Of order and
IL was adopted without .dissenting
vote. The naval committee had amended
the Senate bill so as TO also create rank
of vice admiral. but Mr.. Moody's amend
ment was the original Senate bill without
the latter provision.
When the bill Was reported to the
HOUSE, MIR. Boutelle attempted to secure
a.reversal OF the verdicts of the committee
of the whole on the naval academy and
armor plate amendments, but in both
cases he was defeated, a motion to recon
init the bill made BY being voted down ~
10 155. The House again declined to con-
slider the Brown-Swanson contested cleo
ton case from the 9th Virginia district.
This ia the second attempt to call mp this
