BACK TO CONFERENCE.
The House Sends the Bill for Naval
Appropriations.


Washington, April 20-The session
of the House to-day was devoid of
especial interest. After an extended
debate the naval appropriation bill
was sent back to conference, the only
disputed Senate amendment accepted
being that providing for the construc-
ton in navy yards of two GOLFERS.
The Senate amendment for the Sc
lection of a site for naval training
station on the Great Lakes. which
was adopted after amendment, evoked
criticism from Ma Rixey of Virginia,
who characterized as ridiculous the
proposition to establish a naval train
ing station on the Great Lakes, In
view of the treaty with Great Britain,
specifically prohibiting the employment
of WarshiDS on these lakes.
motion by Mr. Meyer of Louisiana
to accept the Senate amendment pro-
viding for the construction of two col
liers in government yards afforded Mr.
Bell of California an opportunity to
speak, in behalf of government ship
yards, which he believes should be
strengthened and built UP, so that
the government would not be robbed
or held up by any shipbuilding trust
or combine. He said that the navy
yards were capable of turning out as
good ships as the private yards and
at great saving to the government
Mr., Foss, in reply, read a letter from
the Secretary of the Navy. in which
the statement was made that an adj
ditional expenditure of $175,000 would
be required in preparing ann navy
yard to do the work.
This statement was criticised by Mr..
RiXey of Virginia, who insisted that
Congress had appropriated sufficient
money and that the yards ought to
be ready to build the GOLFERS.
The Senate amendment was adopted.
Another conference was ordered on
the items still in dispute
bill providing for the allotment
of the lands of the New York Indians
was passed, after much discussion, and
after the Committee on Rules had
brought in a resolution providing for
its immediate consideration.
