THE NAVAL BILL
As Presented to the House it
Carries Upwards of Sixty
Million Dollars.
Largest Ever Presented to Con-
gress, but the Committee
is of Opinion
That Circumstances Justify the
Expenditure 80 New Ships
Recommended.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The naval ap
preparation bill has been reported to the
house by Acting Chairman Foss Of the
naval committee. The amount carried
by the bill is SCI, 219,916, the largest
ever reported to the house from the
naval committee.
Aside from this, the report which &C.
companies the bill is remarkable for its
arrayal of facts regarding sea power,
the world over, foreign naval programs,
and the comparative strength of the
navies OF the great maritime powers,
accompanied by colored charts showing
the upbuilding Of the various great
navies.
Under the head of naval program, the
report sets forth as follows, as to new
ships:
For the purpose Of further increas-
ing the naval establishment of the
United States, the committee recon-
mends that the president be authorized
to have built by contract two seagoing
coast line battleships, carrying the
heaviest armor and most powerful
ordnance for vessels of their class upon
trial displacement of 1850 tons, and
to have the highest practicable speed
and greatest radius of action and to
cost, exclusive Of armor and armament,
not exceeding $3,600,oO0 each; three ar
mored cruisers Of about 1900 tons
trial displacement, carrying the heaviest
armor and most powerful ordnance for
vessels of their class, and to have the
highest practical speed and great radius
of action and to cost, exclusive of armor
and armament, not exceeding 81, $780,
600 each; and three protected cruisers,
of about 5000 tons trial displacement,
carrying the most powerful ordnance
for vessels Of their class and to have the
highest speed compatible with good
cruising qualities and great radius of
k&tion, and to cost, exclusive Of arma-
ment, not exceeding So, 100000 each.
Continuing the report says:
1.-The maximum cost of the ships
herein authorized, exclusive of armor
and armament, will be $28,350, 900.
This is the largest naval, program ever
submitted by the committee on naval
affairs of the house and is in accord
with the wishes and recommendation Of
the secretary of the navy and Admiral
Dewey and will, we believe, meet the
just demands Of public sentiment. The
past year in naval construction has been
marked by the most liberal naval pro-
gram on the part of all foreign nations.
AT the present time there is pending in
the reichstag Of Germany a naval bill
which, if passed, will increase the ton
mage of the present German navy 49,
600 tons, a larger tonnage than that Of
her present navy"

STILL HAS HOPE
President Steyn Declares His
Confidence in the Outcome
of the War
In a Speech Opening the Free
State Road---Were Forced
Into 1t.
Boer Account of the Ambuscade
at Sannas Post-.-A Signiti-
cant Affair.

PRETORIA, April 2.-In his speech al
the opening of the Free State raad
President Steyn declared that in spite Of
the surrender Of Bloemfontein he had
not lost hope Of the triumph Of the re.
publican cause. The war, he said, was
forced upon the Transvaal, and nothing
remained for the Orange Free State but
to throw in it's lot with the sister repub-
lie, in accordance with the terms Of the
treaty. The war, he continued, was be-
gun with the object of maintaining by
arms the independence bought with the
blood of the forefathers of the nation
and had been so successful that it had
caused the greatest wonder throughout
the world, and even to the Beers them
selves.
After paying a tribute to the memory
of General Joubert, President Steyn
said that the British, Notwithstanding
their overwhelming numbers, were vio-
lating the flag of truce and the Red
Cross and he was compelled to report
the matter to the neutral powers.
The president further remarked that
the attempt to create dlssenslon among
the burghers by the issuing of procla-
nations had failed.
Referring to the correspondence be-
tween the South African presidents and
Lord Salisbury, President Steyn pro-
ceeded:
"Not only were those efforts made,
but the republics had dispatched dep
utation to Europe and America, in order
to bring the influence of the neutral
powers to secure a cessation of the
and we greatly desire that
these efforts be crowned with success. :"
After saying that the governments
had raised temporary loan with the
rransvaal, President steyn concluded
With prayer that the Free State be
reserved from being forced to give up
Is dearly loved independence.

The est. Paul Dispatch Enterprise
Gives it to Northwestern Readers.

| U1VeS IL TO Northwestern RedQerS.
If anything had been lacking to
make a perfect metropolitan news
paper of the St. Paul Dispatch, the
want was entirely filled when it com
pleted arrangements for the special
foreign cable service which is now
Frightening it's columns. 1t is really
astonishing how the recent war with
Spain has developed the American
thirst for the news of the world, 1t
placed America in a new position
with regard to the rest of the earth
and gave new Importance to the
events of the world at large. If the
movements of foreign powers we're
once of interest, they have become
doubly so since America rose into
place as a world power. The ST.
Paul Dispatch recognized this when
it secured this cable service, with its
news fromgfrst hands. No longer is
London the sole source of all
European news, and no longer is the
news of the world filtered through
British channels and tinted with
English ideas. It comes to the Dis,
patch straight from each European
center and without bias or predjudice.
This will be gratifying to all intelli-
gent people of the Northwest: partic-
ularly so to that large foreign born
element which delights in informa-
ton direct from the fatherland. The
Dispatch secured resident cores
spondent in every large city on earth
who uses both cable and mail in
sending in every news event CT inter
est and all public gossip that is dear
to the heart of the newspaper reader.
In the past six years the Dispatch
has made great strides to the front

THE DEWEY PLATFORM.

! Admiral Non-COmmittal at Present But
Will Soon Issue Statement.
| WASHINGTON April g.. Admiral
Dewey expresses himself as very much
| gratiied over the manner in which his
announcement to be candidate for the
presidency has been received by his
friends.
Many kilograms have come during
the day, particularly from the South,
and some from the far West, endorsing
his course and saying he would have
the support of the signers in the cam
paign he will make. The admiral was
in excellent humor and talked interest
ingly of number of things in connec-
ton with his proposed candidacy,
though concerning questions asked him
he said he would soon make a public
statement.
"Why is it, Admiral Dewey, that you
have decided to become candidate for
the presidency" was asked.
REALLY, on that point, he answered,
''there is nothing to add to what has
already been printed on the subject. IF
the American people want me to be
their candidate for this high Office
shall gladly serve them
Silent Regarding His Plans.
''Now tell me something about your
plans for the future" suggested the re-
porter.
son that point am not yet prepared
to make any statement, " answered the
admiral. 81 am consulting with my
friends as to the proper course to be
taken. When the proper time comes
will make a statement as to my plans
for the future, which will be very soon.
Further than that do not care to say
anything regarding them"
Much comment is INDUCED in as to
what party he expects to receive the
nomination from. To such questions
he prefers not to make public state
ment. From those who are acquainted
with his views. however, it is learned
that he does not expect the nomination
from the Republican party. 1t is said
the admiral has decided opinions on the
subject of the Porto Rican tariff and the
Philippines, but he declined to discuss
them on the plea that this is not the
proper time for that. -
''What will your platform be?'' next
10 which party he expected to be identi-
led with, probably, was the most fire.

The small rubber rings that are USED
IN every household with which to sea!

Of much amusement when q lively
game Is desired for the amusement or
friends. First obtain . smooth head OF
flour or sugar barrel and see that the
pieces are all fastened together, form
ing q circular board, or any smooth
board about a square foot IN size will
serve the purpose.
Procure ten coat hooks Of medium
size and secure them into the board
and mark above each hook its number,
ranging from No. to No. 10. \ hole
may be made in the upper end of the
board or q screw eye inserted by which
to hang it upon nail in the wall.
No. 10 is sort Of "bullseye," and
each player, having three Of the rubber
rings, takes turns in throwing them
from a position about ten feet away
endearoring to hook" as many on the
board as possible. \ score is kept Of
the points gained by each player, the
one first getting 100 points being the
winner. However, exactly 1C0 points
must be made. For instance, If a play
er has 90 he has to work for hook No.

over the mark. This difficulty adds to
the interest Of the game.
An advantage Of the game is that no
noise is made nor damage done by the
rings, and it may be improvised by any
boy or girl-New York Sun.
