Representatives Of Labor al the Hearing Of the
House Committee.

Washington, April s. The plan Of
building warships in government yards
was considered by the house committee
on naval affairs during the day, large
delegation of labor representatives be.
ing present in support of it. The dele
cation included James O'Connell, pres
ident Of the Machinists' association,
and several shipbuilding experts from
Norfolk. Brooklyn and other points
having government yards.
Mr.. 0'Connell made the main pres
entation, urging that the government
had millions invested in plants which
should be used for construction as we'll
as for repair Of warships When Rep
resentative Dayton suggested that A
miral Bowles, chief of the naval bu-
reau of construction, had stated that he
would not recommend the building Of
ships in government yards unless the
navy yard wages were equalized with
those OF private yards. Mr.. O'Connell
said the idea OF lower wages could not
have been made seriously, at time
when the tendencies we're toward higher
wages. He argued that in the interest
Of the public government construction
would be beneficial and that inciden-
tally the labor interests would be much
benefited.

London, April 7.-The will Of Cecil
Rhodes provides for the establishment
Of colonial scholarships and two Amer
lean scholarships TO each Of the present
states and territories Of the United
States. The will of Mr.. Rhodes also
provides for Eve scolarships for stu
dents Of German birth at Oxford, to be
nominated BY Emperor william, and

''FOr good understanding between
England, Germany and the United
States will secure the peace Of the
world, and educational relations form
the strongest ties"
Mr.. Rhodes will is remarkable
and voluminous document Of more than
$500 words. Even this is not the en-
tire will, as the executors only gave out
the portions which they consider to be
Of public interest. 1t was executed in
1899. There is codiciI attached on
the day of the deceased's last departure
from England, and another cabled from
Cape Town, which leaves 1000 pounds
yearly to keep up the spot in the Ma
toppo hills where his remains are TO be
buried. The will further directs that
Q railroad extension be made into the
Matoppo bills, so that visitors may 20
there at the week end TO inspect the
majesty and glory Of their surround
ings."
Mr. Rhodes explicitly says he is to be
buried in an aperture cut in the solid
rock, surmounted by q brass tablet
bearing the words: "Here lie the re-
mans Of Cecil John Rhodes" No one
else is to be buried there who has not
deserved we'll of his country.
Mr.. Rhodes bequeaths all his landed
property near Buluwayo and Salisbury,
both in Matabeleland, to trustees, whom
he directs to cultivate the land for the
instruction Of the people of Rhodesia.
His celebrated country place at Groot.
schuur, not far from Cape Town, Mr..
Rhodes leaves as q residence for the
"Prime minister of the federal govern.
ment Of South Africa" with l,00C
pounds yearly Tor its maintenance.

horses and mules to South Africa, there
to be used by British soldiers in the
war against the Beers.
Several weeks ago General Pierson,

MED permission to do this.
