DEBATE ON The NAVAL
APPROPRIATION BILL
Item of 100000 for Purchase
of Land Undisturbed.

When the paragraph in the naval bill
to appropriate 3 .0o0 for the purchase Of
land adjacent to the Washington navy
yard was reached IN the reading of the
measure IN the House today, Representa-
tive Cannon (Re2. Iil.l made an effort
to defeat the provision He reserved d
point of order egainst It and asked for
information Mr. Foss, chairman of the
committee, said the land was adjacent to
the navy yard and was needed as a site
for new buildings Mr. Wheeler of the
committee further explained the neces-
siJy fer the purchase. Mr. Cannon wanted
TO know how mucn lard there was in the
present site.
Mr. Gaines read from a document show
ing that it embraced forty-two acres Mr.
Cannon thought this was sufficient Mr.
Foss then read a statement, made By Ad-
miraI ONeiI, requesting the appropria-
tion Of s1S5, eco fer buying additional land
upon which to erect new buildings, ex-
planning that all the building sites were
now occupied and that location was
needed for a powerhouse-
The committee cut the amount down TO
500. 900 because il had been found that
the Government held title to ten acres
adjoining the yard.
Mr. Cannon expressed the belief that
this was enough for site for ten power
houses. and that in view of the fact that
the bill carries an aggregate OF 81. .eo9.000
this item could we'll wait.
Mir. Foss said the ten acres did not ber-
der on the river and that he thought the
House could well afford to accept the
statement of the Secretary of the Navy as
10 the necessity for the appropriation.
Mr. 0lmsJed argued against the point
of order and it was finally overruIed by
the chairman The item was thus al
lowed to remain III the bill.

HOPE BIPUHINOUS COAL
MINERS WILL STRIKE
Anthracite Men See Victory
if They Aid,

HAZLETON, Pa, May 1.-THE hope
that the 100000 union bftuminous miners
of the country viii consent to join the
ranks of the 147, 900 striking anthracite
miners in this State is the rock upon
which the leaders of the strike are build
ing visions of victory today 1t is a trump
card. To effect it, and thereby stop the
wheels Of industry Of the entire country,
shutting off totally the production Of all
coal, would mean ultimate success for the
strikers without doubt
To call out all OF the soft coal diggers
at this time, it is admitted, would take
heroic measures. The army Of bitumin-
Gus rlen in Ohio, Western Pennsylvania,
and other Middle Western States are now
under contract for year with their en-
ployers, and for them to join the ranks OF
the anthracite Miners would mean the
breaking. Of a yearly compact, or signed
scale system, which they accomplished
after hard labor. and whica she anthra-
cite men are now trying u effect for
