ASSOCIATED PRESS STORY.
Taylor and Bowles on Opposite Side
 of Hobson Natter.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Admirai Taylor, Chief of the Navigation Bureau. has made the following recommendation to the Sec retary of the Navy concerning Captain Hobson's resignation:
 .'The Bureau is reluctant to recommend the acceptance of this officers resigna- tioD, believing that time should be given him to reconsider his decision and make trial of the new duties at the station to which he has been assigned, that the government may retain the services of an officer. whose record has been so bril- liant" ... Z. .,.-- Secretary Moody today telegraphed this recommendation to Captain Hobson with the statement that the Department ap- proved it and transmitted 1t to him for his consideration.
 The correspondence attending the ten der of the resignation was made public today. Captain Hobson gives as a req son for his action the bad condition of his eyes and closes his letter as follows Upon thus severing my official con nections with the navy, l beg to make the following standing and permanent re- quest:
 That upon the approach of war or a similar emergency, the President forward to Congress the application I hereby make to be restored to the navy and as signed to active duty during the period of emergency"
 The attitude of the construction corps. to which Captain Hobson is attached, is shown by this endorsement on the let ter:
 The Bureau recommends acceptance. to take effect February s. l9)3.''

Admiral Bowles Recommends That the Hero of the Merrimac Be Allowed to Leave Navy
 if He Desires.

Washington, Feb. <.-(Special )-Rich- mond Pearson Hobson. who is in New York. was this afternoon requested by Secretary Moody to withdraw his resig- nation from the navy. in view of the embarrassing position of the service on account of the inadequate numoer oi naval constructors
 This is accepted in certain quarters as tantamount to refusal to accept Hob- sons resignation. which. it is said. haa caused much irritation in high naval cir. cles. it being held that Hobson. being aware of the inadeauacy of the service in constructors. should have for at lcas, a reasonable time and in consideration of duty withheld his resignation till a more convenient period and foregone his predilectton for public featuring,
 There is saio to be rather an ugly feel ing in the Navy Department on account nf Hohsons resignation.

BOWEN ANGERS BERLIN
Reported There That He Appears More Anxious for War Than
 for Peace.

Berlin, Feb. 4.-Some disappointment is felt by the German foreign office officials at Minister Bowens attitude in his con- ference with the ambassadors at Wash ngton.
 MT. Bowen, 1t is said here, impresses the representatives of the allies as allow ing his fighting spirit to overbear his desires for a peaceful settlement. His demeanor at the conferences are describ- ed as that of an advocate defending an innocent. persecuted client. Besides the foreign ojce regards Mir. Bowen's first proposition as having been changed after 1t was accepted and 1t is held that 1t was not clearly stated and for that reason was misunderstood.
 The British and German Governments claim that MT. Bowen proposed setting apart 30 per cent of the customs of La Guaira and orto Cabello for the liquida- ton of their claims alone and so accepted it provisionally. Later. upon figuring on the future receipts on the basis of re- ceipts in the past. 1t was estimated that 1t would take six years to pay the first

 Jackson. Miss. Feb. 4.-The deed from Mrs Jefferson Davis to the Tinted Sons of Confederate Veterans for the Beauvoir property provides that 1t shall always he used as a home for indigent ex-Con- federate Veterans. and shall never be used or dedicated ''in any manner as a memorial to any other person whom soever,'' and the title shall never be trans ferred exceptu to the State of Missis- sippi. This makes it obligatory on the Sons of veetrans to support the soldiers home. unless arrangements are made for legislative support
 Mrs. Davis expresses the wish that the east and west pavilions of Beauvoir shall be preserved. and especially the office in the eastern wing In which Jefferson Davis wrote his work. The Rise and Fall of the Southern Confederacy." She specified iu the ded the rooms formerly occupied by Winnie Davis. "the daughter of the Confederacy," and also the room oc- cupied by Mrs. Margaret Davis Hayes and requests that they be used as memo Drials to the family of Mir. Davis. The same conditions are evoked In case the title should pass to the State of Missis- sippi
