ferees of the Senate and House. The dis
puted points were settled as follows:
The Senate provision for the Charleston
navy yard was eliminated from the bill

An appropriation Of $4,000 was allowed
for magazine on the New England coast,
the total cost of which is to be $500,O00.

purpose of making 1t training and receiv-
ing ship.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CONTROL.
Signs Of Difference Between Civil ant
Military Views,

There are signs of difference of opinion
between the civil and military branches of
the government respecting the Russian de-
cree against the use of wireless telegraphy
by newspaper correspondents. The SUBJ
ject has received a good deal Of attention
already from the joint army and navy
boards. composed of the highest officers of
each service and Secretaries Taft and
Moody have been charged by the cabinet
to obtain reports upon the whole broad pro-
ject of wireless telegraphy. The disposi-
ton OF the service branches is distinctly
manifested in favor of governmental control
which makes toward the support of the
Russian position. 1t Is even argued that no
civilian should be allowed to erect a wire
less mast without executive permission be-
cause its use might interfere with that Of
some military mast.
While the State Department. opinion is
not crystalized ii is known that the depart
ment is disposed to move very slowly in
laying any sweeping prohibitions upon pri-
vate enterprise, either newspaper or COM
mercial, and If 1t can prevail 1t is likely
that the department will lead to an inter-
national agreement upon this important
matter.

CHICAGO, April 22-state Senator Mich
ael ]. Butler, with his barkkeeper and two
Of his friends, have fallen victim to a lone
highwayman, who left the senator's saloon
with 500 in cash and jeweIry valued at $4OO.
The 'robber, unmasked, walked in while the
bartender, Albert Manley. was counting
the days receipts, most of the money being
on the bar. The intruder ordered drink
and when Manley placed the glass on the
bar the man suddenly drew two revolvers
and cried Hands up
The bartender was ordered from behind

SALE OF SHIPS TO RUSSIA.
Law as Laid Down in Decision on til
Alabama Case.

The United States government has had
no official information of the sales, persist
emily reported from Europe. of American
ships to either Russia or Japan There has
already been some speculation In official
circles as to whether or not any such sales
could be permitted and one thing is quite
certain, namely. that no vessel under the
American flag could be allowed to pass
directly into the possession OF the govern.
msnt Of either beligerent state. This is
said to be true Of merchant ships as well
as warships, for the former might easily
be transformed into cruisers or used as
troop transports, and the spirit of modern
international law 10 said to be decidedly
against the transfer of any floating prop
erty to belligerent. which could be used
for warlike purposes.
There is, therefore, line of difference
between ships and war supplies. the latter
Of which may properly be regarded as mer-
chandise
But to the official mind there may be
doubt of the right to prohibit the sale Of an
American shi1 of the merchant class to an
individual citizen of one of the belligerent
powers, or to the citizen Of third power,
unless it can be very clearly established
that the vessel Is to pass into the pos
session of one Of the belligerent govern
ments. 1t happens there are absolutely no
warships In the United States which could
be sold all being United States government
property, so that the question is reduced to
that of merchant vessels, and that phase Is
receiving careful attention.
The principles laid down by the Geneva
arbitration in the famous Alabama case
are, of course. the guiding marks for our
government In treating this subject, and
they have been generally accepted as inter-
national law by all maritime powers. SO
the reported sale of German vessels built
under the subsidy acts and rated as possi-
bly, auxiliary cruisers has consequently
been the subject of some discussion be-
tween the law Offices.

PARIS, April 22.-Informat!on reaches the
officials here to the effect that Russia is ne

that the negotiations with Greece will not

UNITED ON THE
UTAH LAKE SCHEME
All Concerned Now Pledge Their
Support to the Government
Project.
RESULT SATURDAY 5 MEETING
Prot. Swendson Receives Word From
Prof Newell That He viii Arrive
Tomorrow Afternoon.

There was a good attendance Satur.
day afternoon, In President Angus NJ
Cannon's Office, on the occasion Of the
meeting on the local irrigation ques'
ton as outlined in Saturdays News,
The valley canal people were present In
force, with Mr., Cannon as chairman,
and George G. Lambert as secretary.
The city engineer was present in be-
half OF the city corporation, and Prof.
Swendsen was on hand TO explain in de-
tall the propositions and plans relative
to making OF Utah lake a reservoir,
while State Engineer Doremus was
present TO detail what had been done.
and what was proposed by the aid AMI
commission. Land owners from Davis
and Tooele counties were there and
said they would gladly take all of the
surplus water provided by the govern
ment, and at price double the esti-
mated cost per acre for the $4,000
acres which 1t Is proposed to irrlgate
at first. This explanation was general
~ satisfactory. resulting In the adop-
ton Of resolution pledgIng the sup
port Of the meeting to the government
project.
Prof Swendsen said the average cost
OF retaining the 10000 acres would be
about sll.S0 per acre, to be paid in
10 annual payments Of sl13 each,
without interest. The sense OF the
meeting was that little over one dol
lar per acre would be very reasonable
figure to pay for an ample water supply.
The professor stated that he had pro-
ceeded on basis OF some 500 second
feet of water per day as the normal
requirement OF the present canal sys-
TEN, and Improvements would increase
the 1ow TO 1000 second feet.
State Engineer Doremus detailed
what had already been accomplished
In the government work, and said that
the government had now ascertained all
that is necessary to learn the relative
cost. practicability and effectiveness Of
the proposition, so that there Is nothing
now 10 do until the people have stated
just what they are willing TO do. For
this latter reason The meeting with
Prof, Newell is particularly called. AS
to the fairness OF making all pay the
same for water irrespective OF its ac-
tual need, the engineers believed this
Gould be adjusted by the payments be-
ing made according to the benefits de-
rived.
On motion Of Secretary Lambert, the
meeting decided In favor OF the Utah
Lake reservoir project, and that all par.
ties interested attend the Wednesday
morning meeting, In the East Jordan
westinghouse.
Prof. Swendsen received message
this morning from Prof Newell, stating
that he was en- route from Nevada, and
would arrive In Salt Lake at S;l5 p, m,
Tuesday. The photographic engineers
