Feeling That the Outcome of the War in the Far East Should be Awaited Events May Prove That the Torpedo and Submarine Boats Are More EGec- tive Than the Greater Ship.


 Washington, April 25.-Whether the president shall order the construction of the battleship provided for in the naval appropriation bill or wait until the war in the Far East demonstrates the com parative utility of the big sea fighter and the torpedo boat or submarine craft was a question raised in the senate to- day by MT. Hale, Maine, on the adop- tion of the conference report. It was developed that the language of the bill was permissive and that the president and secretary of the navy could defer action if they deem it advisable. MT. Hale declared that if he were secre- tary of the navy he should not dare to go on now and commit the government to the building Of an immense battle ship for it would not surprise him if events of the Russian-Japanese war demonstrated that the s150 100000 paid for big battleships were bad invest ment for this government. Several other senators counselled delay.
 Mr. Bacon discussed trusts, replying to the recent speech of MT. Deliver. He devoted the greater portion to con- ditions which make it possible for Am erican products to be sold abroad for a less price than American consumers are required to pay.
