FAILURE is UNAVOIDABLE
Effort Made to Show that Two Million
Dollars Promised Under Sheldon
Plan Of Reorganization Would
Not Have Saved Company.
lBv Assoclated Press.l

NEW YORK, October 23.-The nature
OF the defense which Charles NJ. Schwab
will make to the charges that have been
made against him in connection with the
financial affairs of the wrecked United
States Shipbulding Company was sharply
outlined during the latter part Of the
hearing before Examiner Oliphcnt late
to-day
Lewis Nixon was still on the stand, and
Under cross examination by w. D. Guth-
tlrie, counsel for Mr.. Schwab. there was
an effort to show that the corporation
would not have succeeded If the $1,000. 600
promised under the Sheldon plan Of re-
organization had been made available,
and that it could not have continued Its
existence even II 1t had received the much
sought for 100000, which. 1t is alleged,
was wrongfully withheld by the Bethle-
hem Company. Mr.. Guthrie showed by
Mr.. Nixon that the $90000O would have
been absorbed without relieving the COM
pany of all of the financial embarrass-
ment which 1t suffered. and then asked
II II would have been honest to the other
creditors If the interest charges on &C
count of the bonds had been paid on July
list. the date OF the crisis In the AFFAIRS of
the concern.
Mr. Nixon objected to the word hon
est" and Mr.. Guthrie changed his ques-
ton to: "Do you not think that there Is
All honest difference Of opinion as to the
Justice OF paying the interest charges, and
do you not admit In your letters that to
continue business would have been to
pYecipitate Immediate bankruptcy?
WANTED MONEY.

land was prepared to make almost any
sacrifice"
WAS 1t not fact that the Board of
Directors thought that because OF the
want of accord, the accumulation of
debts and the pressing need for money.
the proper course was to publish to the
world that reorganization was necessary
in order that people would no longer deal
In securities on which interest could not
be, paid on July lsty'
"Alost decidedly said Mr.. Nixon II
did not want the people to continue deal
ing In the securities"
The examining OF Mr.. Nixon was not
concluded, and will be resumed at the
next hearing, which is set for week
from Monday.

HONDURIAN GUNBOAT
PROVES TROUBLESOME
Captain of Norwegian Steamer Forced to
Do Things Against His Will.

NEW ORLEANS, La, April Capt.
Warnecke, of the Norwegian steamer
David, which has arrived here from Ceiba,
Spanish Honduras, reports an exciting ex-
per1ence with the Hondurian gunboat
Tatumbla
The David was off the north coast of
Honduras, when the Tatumbla hove in
sight and commanded the merchantmen to
put into Utilla, against the orders of the
captain of the David. The Tatumbla was
in command of Col. Vilarde, who put a
half dozen Hondurian soldiers on board
the David to insure the proper carrying
out of his orders. Capt Warnecke. of the
David objected, saying that he had no
business in the harbor of Utilla and pro-
tested going so far out of his course
The commander of the Tatumbla was de-
termined and insisted that the David pro-
coed where he ordered her to go.
Capt Warnecke argued that he was off
the coast of Honduras looking for a ma
tive pilot to take the ship to Ceiba, his
objective port but he had to submit to
the humiliation of changing his course and
steam for Utilla. The captain of the
David feared that Col Velarde meant to
seize his ship to transport government
troops from that place to the mainland
or that the Tatumbla was short of coal
and wanted a full supply from the David.
The David anchored off Utilla a small
island off the northeast coast of Hon
duras, for the night and left the follow
ing day without being boarded by troops
Capt Capt. Warhecke proceeded to Puerto
Coghlan of what had happened. Two
United States war vessels went at once
in search of the Tatumbla. but from last
accounts had not located the troublesome
craft: The David brought but half a car
go of fruit.

matte and consular representatives rel
ative to the issuance of passports, the
purpose being to secure greater uni
formity in the system. The attention of
agents of this country is called to the
fact that while the United States does
not discriminate between native born
and naturalized citizens, "in determin-
ing the question of the conservation of
An erican citizenship and the right to
receive a passport, 1t is only reason
able to take into account the purpose
for which the citizenship is obtained.
A naturalized citizen who returns to
the country Of his origin and there
resides without any tangible mani
festatiOn of an intention to return to
the United States, may therefore gem
orally be assumed to have lost the right
to receive the protection of the Unit
ed States"
1t is urged, however, that full pro-
lection is to be accorded a natural
ICED citizen until he manlfests an eff
fcctual abandonment of his residence
and domicile in the United States.

ployes of the government railroad. who
have not struck, are guarded by
troops as protection for the mems
wives and children. The baker shops
and carts are similarly protected. The
employees Of the river and canal navt-
cation companies have decided to strike
in sympathy with the railroad men.
More trains are running than on yes
terday. The pupils of the locomotive
engineers institute have unanimously
rendered their services to the railroads.
Their offers have been accepted and a
number of them are being employed as
stokers. The workmen's defense COM
mittee is anxiously awaiting reports
from the delegates who were sent to
Germany, France and England to APP
peal for the support of the trades
unions of those countries.
THE HAGUE, April 8.-The propos-
ed bakers strike in sympathy with
the general water and land transport
tation strike has thus far proved
work under military protection. The
railroad service is gradually resuming
its normal conditions
The workmen'S defense committee
has offered to call off the strike if the
proposed "tyrannicaT' anti-strike laws
are abandoned. In spite or the efforts
Of the Socialists to postpone the dis
second chamber Of the states general,
article /, guaranteeing freedom of la
Dor against strikers, was passed today.
The members of the Liberal Left de-
clare they will not vote for article 2,
which provides punishment for strik-
ing railroad men.
ROTTERDAM, April S.-Ninety per
cent of the employees Of The Neither
lands railroad have resumed work. Only
ShunterS and DOintsmen are now need
ed to re-establish the complete service.
The municipal employees here met to-
night and decided to go on strike to-
morrow morning. This action will af-
feet the gas, telephone, sanitary and
water services, but it is believed that
only third of the men will respond
to the strike call, and the military will
be employed to maintain the public
services.
The proclamation calling for a gener-
al strike of all trades throughout the
country is considered to be policy of
despair In authoritative quarters it
is believed that the strike as an or
ganized movement is doomed to failure
and that the governments anti-strike
bill will be speedily passed, greatly
Strengthening the hands of the au-
thoritfes. Meantime there is no doubt
that the public is suffering great in
convenience through the stagnation of
trade resulting from the strike. There
is rush on the state pawn shops and
the savings banks. The mails are ar
irving irregularly and late, being for
warded partly by automobiles, where
the railways are held up by the strike.
The theaters were able to resume to-
night, the singers and dancers who had
gone on strike having resumed their
duties.

ADMIRAL SCHLEY
ADDRESS SALONS

Upon entering the capitol building
Admiral Schley and those who attend
ed him were met by legislative re-
ception committee consisting of Rep
resentatives Lemon, Fust and Shop
ard and Senators Sheel, Wilson and
Peterson, and taken at once to the hall
of representatives where the members
OF both houses were assembled.
Entering the hall upon the arm of
Gov. Van SAINT, the admiral was ush-
cred to the speakers desk and placed
between Lieut.. Gov. Jones and Speaker
-Babcock
Senator Babcock introduced the dis
tinguished visitor as a man so noble
OF character than when he had achieV-
ed great victory and others sought
to take his laurels from him, he had
not attempted to maintain his position
or engage in any controversy, but had
merely said there is glory enough for
ALL"
When Admiral Schley arose to speak
he was greeted with hearty and pro-
longed applause, which was stilled only
that he might speak. He earnestly
thanked the legislature for the in
vitation to be present on this occa-
sion, and for the heartiness with which
he had been greeted. He paid a high
compliment to the state of Minnesota,
which he said had been noted in the
forum and on the field for the ability
and bravery of it's men.
Gov. Van SAINT spoke at some length
complimenting Admiral Schley as an
apt pupil of the great Farragut, and
one who would need no monument, as
his memory would be perpetuated in
the history of his country.
Liut. Gov. Jones, Senator Clapp and
Col. Mcclure all spoke briefly.
AT the close of the exercises in the
house of representatives, Admiral,
Schley was conducted to the lower
floor, where he received first the veter-
ans Of the Civil war and the school
children. The admiral was stationed
in the entrance to the governors Of
flee, and devoted considerable time to
greeting the veterans, as each in turn
was presented to him.
Following the veterans came the
school children, numbering several
hundred, and each of the little ones
was given a friendly handshake and
a kind word. Then the doors Of the
building We're opened to the general
public, and for nearly an hour the ad-
miral stood to greet those who came
to be presented to him.
At the close of this ceremony Ad-
miral Schley and Col. Mcclure were
taken to the residence of Gov Ram
sey to pay their respects to the first
war governor of this state.

ROME is PARALYzED
BY SEVERAL
STRIKES
City in Possession of Troops,
Which Have a Clash With
Strikers-Large Number of
the Latter Arrested =
Proposition Of Arbitration

ROME, April 8.-The aspect of Rome
was completely changed early today.
The gay, crowded city of yesterday
seemed dead. No cabs passed through
the streets and even the street cars,
which ran along at intervals, were es-
corted by police and were almost
empty, as the people feared to ride in
them on account of threats of the
strikers. The shops were open, but
the shutters We're up, as the propri-
etors intended to be ready for any
eventuality. The whole city was oc-
cupied by troops. Detachments of cav
airy were posted on the squares and
special details Of soldiers and police
were stationed around the Vatican so
as to prevent any attempt against the
papal palace. Foreigners continue to
leave Rome, but many of them cannot
get away, as they are far from the
railroad station and no cabs are OBJ
tainable and the hotel omnibuses car
rying only a limited number of pas
sengers.
UnlmpOrtant encounters between the
strikers and troops took place during
the morning, the former wishing to
hold meetings which were forbidden.
The strikers We're easily dispersed. An
attempt was made by strikers to over
throw street car, but it failed.
Five hundred French pilgrims ar
rived here today and had some start
ling experiences. They got off at
station on the outskirts of Rome, SO as
to avoid going through the city. but
there We're no cabs and all kinds of
wagons and carts were hired to take
the nil 600 MOI,
women of the party arrived at the
Garibaldi bridge just as a detachment
of cavalry charged mob and a scene
Of Understandable confusion ensued.
With screams and shouts the pilgrims
in their efforts to escape were scatter
ed in all directions.
One Encounter.
About the middle of the day the
strikers gathered in threatening num-
bers on the Corso Vittorio Emanuele,
almost in the center of the city, and
detachments Of troops charged, fired
three volleys and dispersed them
About a dozen men were wounded.
The officials report that order has
been completely re-established, but
Rome is still occupied by the military
forces and the general strike continues.
Many strikers were arrested. The
government has determined to have a
sufficient force of troops on hand to
maintain order under any circum-
stance and has summoned ten more
battalions
The pope was much interested in the
strike. He said: ut is sword with
two edges" He also expressed sor-
row at the damage done the interests
of the city and because the strike in
terferes with the religious ceremonies
of Easter. Instructions were issued to
close the churches wherever disturb
ances occurred, and the prelates of st.
Peters met to decide whether or not
to suspend the Easter services, fearing
that the strikers may enter st. Peters
and provoke disorder.
The leader of the socialists has de-
cided to propose that the differences
between the typesetters and their en-
ployers, which brought about the gen.
eral strike, should be settled by arbi-
tration.

FEELING TOWARD THE KING

EDINBURGH, April 8.-There was a
curious scene at a meeting here TODAY
called to make preparations for the
forthcoming visit of King Edward to
Scotland. Several Of the local Scot
fish officials refused to have anything
to do with the king until he dropped
the title of Edward VII The OBJ
jectors protested that the title was
an insult to Scotland. They added
that judging from the addresses he
received at Lisbon even the king him
self seemed to realize that he was only
king of England.
Considerable uproar prevailed, but
the meeting ultimately refused to listen
any further to the malcontents.
