SERIOUS DISAGREEMENT.
Conferees Unable to Get Together or
Naval Bill.

Washington, March 4.-There is a
serious difference over the naval ap-
preparation bill and the prospects are
that disagreement will be reported.
The point in dispute is the increase OF
the navy, the house standing for it's
programme of large ships and the SEN
ate as firmly insisting upon it's provi-
sions for smaller ships. 1t is said the
house conferees have backed up their
position by saying the president ia
vors the house plan and the report
further states that the house confer
ees claim that the failure of their pro-
gramme may mean an extra session
of congress, especially if the naval
bill should fail.
