Paris. March lin the Chamber Of Deputies
to-day. in the debate the naval estimates.
VI. Iockroy. Minister Of Marine. sketched the
Government programme and gave curious
insight into the unpreparedness Of the Navy IN
the recent Anglo French crisis.
NJ. Lockroy said he regarded the defence OF
the maritime frontier as important as the DE-
fence Of the Vosgos fr,.tler. and that. while
France desired peace and would earnestly strive
TO preserve It. strong navy must be in read-
ness to rope! aggression.
The Minister Of Marine then proceeded 70 re-
veal number of startling facts relating 70 the
condition ~ the French arsenals at tho critical
juncture in the relations between France and
Great Britain some months ago. He quoted
from the letter written by General Desbordes
last year declaring that mot one OF our naval
bases Is able to fulfil the functions for which it
was established. or capable ~ making defence
to save the honor OF French arms"
To-day however" the Minister declared. 'our
coast defences are so much improved that we
can speak Of the conditions OF nine months ago
as Of the distant past The difficulty az that
time was an almost absolute lack Of mon. At
our principal ports only one-third Of the bat
teries could he manned the first day 81 the
mobilization. and most OF the shells had no
fuses"
" Lockroy declared that he would never
hold back the truth from the Chamber These
facts" he continued have been Obtained after
painful inquiries hut there are mon behind
the guns everywhere now
France he went to assert. must prepare
for the future as we'll the present. and all
her financial resources should be economically
employed to this end lie spoke in high terms
Of the personnel Of the French navy, praisinS
the courage and loyalty Of the men, and ad-
vocated the German system Of forhiddns all
foreigners warshps.
NJ Lockroy spoke with tho greatest satlsiao-
ton regarding the experiments that have
proved the submarine boat Gustav Iede capapie
NJ real service" He said the boats new APP
paratus enabled It IN perceive enemies and 70
strike them with accurate aim. Thus, de-
clared the Minister. France possesses a new
destructive engine Of terrible power.

sponsible for state of things when brought

THE SITUATION IN SAMOA.
PRESENCE OF THE PHILADELPHIA En-
PECTED TO PREVENT FURTHER
TROUBLE

Washington March 17.-Admiral Kautz has
sent n cable dispatch TO the Secretary Of the
Navy from Apia. Samoa. via Auckland, New
Zealand. saying that he has arranged for
meeting OF the consuls Of Great Britain, the
United States and Germany nj an early date, to
have a full and free discussion OF Samoan af-
fairs. The dispatch Is dated n week ago. so
that this meeting undoubtedly has taken place
and the AdmirsIs next report may be expected
to give the results Of the conference. II is be-
leved here that the presence OF the Admiral on
his flagship the Philadelphia will serve to re-
strain the natives as well as the more excitable
clement Of the foreign community from any
further outbreaks pending the decision Of the
three treaty Powers as to the future ~ the
islands
The German gunboat Fake Is to leave Apia
owing. Il is said. to the nearness Of the season
when that harbor is unprotected against severe
tropical storms. While no international siCnih-
canoe is said to be attached to the move yet
IT is felt that IT will give further evidence OF the
improved relations existing with Germany, and
the purpose Of the German authorities 10 avoid
occasions for friction in Samoa.
The British and German Embassies have re-
ceived no word Of renewed trouble at Apia. 1t
IS felt in both quarters that the governments
will have little difficulty in reaching adjust
ment and that the danger lies in the posi-
bilty Of precpitate action by officials in tho ISL
ands. The withdrawal Of the Fake. it is said
will remove an element OF possible menace. as
it reduces to that extent the armed force sup
porting the various elements
