TO BUILD BIG BATTLESHIPS.
Two 10,O00-Ton BattIeships and Two
14,JO0-TOn Armored Cruisers Pro-
vided for-BiII Carries $4,000, 900

Washington, April 22.-The House
Committee on Naval Affairs to-day
completed the naval appropriation bill
The most important item of new ships
was left until the last, and as finally
determined upon was as follows: Two
battleships of about 10000 tons dis
placement, to cost exclusive of armor
and armament, S4,21200O each; two ar
mored cruisers of about 1880 tons
displacement each, to cost exclusive
of armor and armament. 1859 900
each; two gunboats of 1000 tons dis
placement each to cost 1882. 900 each.
The following new provision is
made. that the Secretary of the Navy
may in his discretion and so far as in
his judgment is practical, direct that
any or all of the vessels herein author
lied be built in such navy yards as he
may designate.
Provision is also made for building
one of each class of ships on the Pa
cific coast and that no contractor
shall build more than one battleship.
cruiser or gunboat.
The 16.000-ton battleships will be the
largest ever authorized for the Amer
lean navy and among the largest war
ships ahoat. The armored cruisers
will also be exceptionally large for
their class, considerably exceeding the
New York and Brooklyn in tonnage.
The amount carried by the bill is
slightly above SIS 900, 600

POSITION OF GERMAN LINES.
Not Bought Outright by Morgan,
They Claim, hut General Opinion

in Berlfn Is to the Contrary.
Berlin, April 22.-The German steam
ship companies have not been bought
outright by the Morgan interests; they
enter a close business confederacy with
the American and British lines; their
own interests are not merged; their in
dependence is safeguarded.
The foregoing is the substance of the
re plies made in Hamburg and Bremen
by Herr Balm, director general of the
Hamburg American line, and Herr
Plath, president, and Herr Wiegand
director general of the North German
Lloyd line, to inquiring shareholders
of the companies whose positions
entitle them to know what is being
done. While not fully satisfied with
these assurances, the shareholders
must wait until the end of May for
details of the contracts. These will
then be submitted at meetings. which
are to be called to confirm the agree
ments of the shareholders of the two
companies.
Although not a word to indicate that
American interests will directly con-
troll the German lines has been heard
from the arrangements of the compa-
MES, the opinion is almost universal
among exporters. bankers and politi-
clans that the German companies have
put themselves into a position subor-
dinate to foreign influence.

Charleston, April PA special from
Ravenel, Colleton county. to the News
and Courier, says:
Cain Ford, colored. was arrested last
night on suspicion of completely in the
murder of Mrs. w. w. Jones, wife of
Section Master Jones of the Plant Sys-
tenn Railway. and was to-day brought
before Magistrate Behling.
Never have the people in this section
been more aroused than they were to-
day. About $50 persons were present
at the coroner's inquest over the re-
mains of the dead woman, and several
times it seemed that the negro would
be taken from the officers and lynched,
but cooler heads prevented this and
Deputy Sheriff Arnett was allowed to
carry the prisoner to Jail at Walter
boro.
If the testimony against Ford had
been at all positive. he would have
been swung to limb in very few
minutes.
The motive for the murder was clear
ly robbery Mr.. Jones, the section mas
ter had been paid off only a few days.
After the crime the trunks in the house
were found broken open and the rob-
bers left with pistol, razor, and a
gold watch and chain. DR.. Taylor in
his testimony declared that Mrs. Jones
was not assaulted.
1t is thought that Jim Black, a no
torious negro in this community, was
the murderer and that Ford knows
something of the crime. One witness
to-day testified that he saw Jim Black
near the scene of the murder hurrying
through the woods with a pistol. Dep
uty Sheriff Arnett and the citizens Of
the community will leave nothing UNI
done to capture the guilty parties.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jones were married one
year ago yesterday, and before the
former stated to his work in the morn
ing. he gave his wife a gold watch and
chain. The section master is badly
wrought UP over the horrible deed, and
is almost distracted with grief and ex

The excitement the day before in

greatly alarmed and appealed to the
commander of the United States gum

Liberals and ragged for two hours be-
fore the Conservative (governmenD
troops began their retreat. Before the
Mount Vernon sailed the battle was
over and but an occasional shot was
heard.
The Machins' Request Evaded.
An incident that FASTENED the attack
on Bocas was the attempt of the Ma
ohias to recover the launches which
the liberals had taken from the United
Fruit Company. The Liberals were on
an island near the lagoon and received
the demand of the Machias with great
courtesy, but set forth that the Lib
eral army was in desperate state, To-
Gated on the island, and unable to es-
cape if the launches were given back
The request was made that the
launches be left with the Liberals for
that one night. The Liberals would
move away to some safer place and
the launches would be returned to the
owner the next morning. 1t is said
that the commander of the Machias
consented The Liberals embarked on
two fiat boats, lowed by the launches
but instead of moving away, they de-
scended Immediately upon Bocas. 1t is
believed that the demand for the laun-
ches caused the Liberals to attack
sooner than was planned. So far as

Pine situatiOn-He Discusses the
Waller Case.
Washington, April 22.-The War De-
partment has made public a report
from Gen. Chaffee, dated March II,
which epitomizes the situation in the
various parts of the Philippine archi-
pelago in a manner that is particularly
satisfactory to the officials here in view
OF the congressional demand for en-
act and late information. Gen Chat-
zee refers to the Waller court-martial
then about to convene, and touches
upon the Morong disturodlC fore
casting the ultimate settlement; checks
OF the work accomplished toward re-
ducing posts, and speaks of the mi
t1ations of the movement for Aa!var's
surrender, an event which has since
peen brought about. The report says
OF the trial of Maj. Waller and Lieut.
Day of the Marine Corps:
The purpose of this trial is to in
qulre into an unlawful execution of
some natives by these officers. The
cause of the execution is alleged to be
that the natives turned on the marines
IN the mountains and tried to take the
life of Lieut.. Williams. The natives
came out Of the mountains with the
command, however, and when sent to
Basey from Tacloban it was reported
to Maj. Waller that they had assaulted
Lieut.. Williams of the Marine Corps
and in other ways turned traitors to
the command. Maj. Waller, on what 1
think very slight inquiry, ordered
them executed. They We're his prison
ers at the time and of course should
have been tried, if believed
to be guilty of the offense alleged. I
am investigating one or two other in
stances where it is alleged prisoners
have been shot"
