A BILL ALMOST "ERTAIN TO PASS

TWO BATTLESHlPS AND TWO CRUISERS
The Venezuelan Trouble Has Empha.
sized the Necessity of Having an
Efficient Fighting Force
Up to the Senate.

Washington-Public sentiment and
realization Of the inadequacy for ma
tional safety of the present navy has
mad such effect on the House naval
committee that it is now practically
certain favorable recommendation will
be made to the House for the construc.
ton of at least four fighting ships
two battle ships and two armored
cruisers-and two steel training ships.
The navy department Is still insisting
that two gun boats and hospital ship
which 1t is feared may be eliminated
from the bill, are imperative needs,
especially the latter, but it is felt that
if the bill is to be cut these must 90

II four fighting ships and two train.
ing ships are authorized it will be a
greater provision than has ever before
been made at a short session of con-
gress. Never before has the need for
such substantial increase been so
wildly brought before the public as it
has in the Venezuelan imbroglio, when
the citizens of the United States, al
ways proud of their navy, have become
painfully aware of the fact that the
national sea power is not great enough
to repel possible concerted European
attack on the Monroe doctrine.
Favorable recommendation by the
house committee will insure the pas

ed to the senate, although the bill will
not come up there until late in the ses-
sion. Thus, the upper house is the
only thing that stands between the
present condition and the realization
Of more liberal constructive policy
in congress.
The argument has been made
against the increase of the fleet that
the personnel, both enlisted and com.
missioned, is inadequate for the ships
already in commission. This un.
doubtedly Is 80, but congress seems
disposed to relieve this condition by
doubling the number of midshipmen
in the Naval academy, authorizing
their being commissioned as ensigns
at the end of four years in the acad-
envy, and by increasing the enlisted
personnel by 5000 men now and furth.
er increases as needed in years to
come. The Navy department feels that
congress cannot refuse to relieve the
necessity for more officers.

Foot and Mouth Disease Stamped Out,

MISUNDERSTANDING Wilson be-

the foot and mouth disease in New
England, where 1t Is epidemic, to other
states has passed. Careful investiga-
ton by the government experts failed
to reveal single case Of the disease
in Connecticut, although that state
was included in the general orders of
the agricultural department imposing
the quarantine. DR.. Salmon, chief Of
the bureau of animal industry, who Is
in New England personally directing
the fight against the epidemic, will re-
turn in a few days to confer with Sec
rotary Wilson and 1t will then be de-
termined when to remove the quaran-
tine against Connecticut. A commit
tee from Chicago headed by President
Dowd Of the stockyards company, has
been in conference with Secretary Will
son regarding the extent of the infec-
ton and measures taken to combat it.
Secretary Wilson told what had been
done and they expressed confidence
that every practicable step has been
taken in safeguarding the stock inter
ests of the country.

THE BIBLE 10 NOT A LAW BOOK.
A Question Decided In Divorce Case
In Chicago.

Chicago.-The question as to wheth-
er an ecclesiastical divorce is binding
as legal divorce and the novel con-
tention that the Bible may be read to
a jury as an authority Of law, were in
troduced In Judge Horizons court in
the trial Of Max GRADER for bigamy.
After much consideration Judge Hor.
ton decided the Bible could not be con.
sidered authority on legal matters and
the question Of church against state
divorces was left to the jury and Ora
Der was found guilty. An appeal will
be taken.
GRADER was married In Russia and
had four children. Years ago he came
to Chicago, returning only once to see
his wife. He fell In love with a Chicago
woman and made application for an
ecclesiastical divorce. He paid the
rabbi 800 and in return was given
ghoet, or Jewish separation. This
ghoet was mailed to Russia, to the
small town where the wife was living,
was there received by rabbi, record
ed In the church records and returned
to GRADER. Mrs. GRADER believed at
the time that she was legally separated
from her husband. When she came to
America she found the ghoet was not
a legal divorce. Her husband had mar
ried a second time and she had him ar
rested.

LIFTS PRICE OF OIL.
Standard OIL Company Increases Price
so Per Cent.

Chicago.-Another burden-that Of
the rapid rise in the price Of kerosene
has been thrust upon the poor by
the Standard Oil Company. During
the past two months this product has
increased in price nearly so per cent
and the probabilities are, in the opin'
ion of the retail dealers and even the
heads Of the Standard Oil Company,
that the price will go still higher.
AS a consequence, therefore. those
who have depended upon oil for both
lighting and heating purposes since
the price of coal scared far beyond
their reach will be able to keep warm
by burning this oil but little longer.
The reason given by the oil company
for the increase in price is that the
well owners increased the price to the
company. This was brought about, 1t
Is claimed, by a scarcity Of oil, and a
consequent inability to secure 1t In
sufficient quantitie sto supply the de.
mand.

HE URGES A NATIONAL THEATER.
Mr.. Carnegie Would Add an Endow-

Observation-Disclosures Paxton Voor-
hees, who caused Representative Miers
Of Indiana to introduce joint resolu-
ton which provides, that a site upon
which to erect national theater be
provided in the District of Columbia"
says Andrew Carnegie would endow
the theater If the government would
aid. Mr.. Voorhees,, in reviewing the
work he has been doing in the direc-
ton of the establishment of a national
theater, said:
1.-THE resolution introduced Is the re-
suit of six years of missionary work
on the subject Of a national theater
In 1896 l originated the first bill on
the subject that was ever introduced,
so far as know, and 1t has largely de-
volved upon me since that time to
keep the subject of national theater
under consideration. Since that time
members Of the profession have given
the matter their careful consideration
and Endorsements have been heartily
given by such actors as Richard Mans
field, Henry Irving, e. H. Sothern,
Henry e. Dixey, Frank Daniels and
many others.
"The movement has also secured an
offer from Mr.. Carnegie to endow a
playhouse with the essential qualiflca-
tions that the government should take
an interest in the affair and the intro
duction Of the resolution by Mr.. Miers
the logical next step in the plan of
meeting the requirements Of Mr.. Car
negie."
