NEW NAVY BILL.
Plea Made for Greater Strength on
 Water.


 Washington, Feb. 11.--In the report on the naval appropriation bill to the House today by Chairman Foss, of the Naval Affairs Colnmlttee, the gauntlet thrown down by Senator German in his an- nounced policy of internal Improvements in place of naval construction, is taken up with vigor The report says:
 The Committee recommended the con stFuction of more than the usual nuni- Der of cruisers. owing to the fact that last year we provided for i've large bat tleships This will give a better propor- tion to our navy. If we judge public sentiment, 1t Is in favor of the continu- ous policy of building up our navy. It we stopped now we would be left be- hind the leading countries of the world.
 ''The American people will not endorse the policy of sacrificing the American navy for internal Improvements, nor Is there any such necessity.
 ''ForeYnost and above all must stand considerations of national defense. main- tenanee of our foreign policies and pro- tection of American citizens everywhere.
 "The American people are not willing to lessen their influence on this hemis- phere nor forsake their interests on the other"
 The appropriation for new ships for the navy as we'll as the completion of those now under construction is dealt with in the report as follows:
 ITO complete nli the ships authorized up to the present time, including their construction and machinery, armor, arm ament and equipment will cost $S2, ns,6J3, which may be divided as follows: Con- struction and machinery. $t6. b32. 46O; aru1or and armament. ss5, ,7s6, ,2os; equipment. $aOc.- 900.
 "of this sum we fix in this bill Sls,s2s,- s6O for construction and machinery, and sl2,Ooo,oOo for armor and armament mak- ing a total of $3ls2s,seO, which leaves a balance of ,6ss to be appropriated hereafter"
 The ships authorized are:
 "one first class battleship of 1S0OO tons, cost S7,775, 600; two first class armored cruisers of 14,50o tons, cost each $6,bOS,- 900; three scout cruisers, of not more than 3.75O tons, cost each $220O,0OO; two colliers to be capable of accompanying the battIeship fleet to carry 5000 tons of cargo coal. total cost of each to be @,- 500. 0.000.''
 The total cost of the above program will be $2s,ss 900. It is left within the discretion of the Secretary of the Navy to build any or all of these ships in gov- ernment navy yards. in case 1t shall ap- pear that the shipbuilding concerns have entered into any combination or under standing to deprive the government of fair and unrestricted competition in let ting contracts for the construction of any of these vessels.
 It is stated that the greatest naval problem of the day Is the training of men for the navy.
 An increase of 1000 men is provided for and training station cn the Great Lakes recommended.
 The report gives in detail. illustrated with colored plates, the strength of the various navies of the world. The total amount of the bill is $eS,32s,0Ss

THE NOTE or HAY.
It Has Attracted Much Attention in Russia.

It Has Attracted Much Attention in
 Russia.
 St. Petersburg. Feb. 11.-Secretary Hays note to the powers has attracted much attention in diplomatic circles here. Any movement having for It's pur- pose the limiting of ..-o scene of hostili- ties is received with sympathy. but in certain quarters the practicability of the action suggested Is questioned. A prom inent diplomat expressed su .'ise to-day that the preservation of Korea was not included in the note.
 The wishes of the United States have been communicated to Lne Russian gov ernment and presumably also to Japan. At the foreign ofiice the Associated Press learned this afternoon that no response had been made and 1t was considered ex- tremely doubtful whether Russia felt herself in q position to make a declara- tionsnow as thAse might hamper her mill itary operations. The question was said decide and the representations of the United States. which are understood to be eouched in the most courteous terms. probably will be refeKred to Viceroy Alex ieR.
 Newspapers here do not fully nnder- stand the purport of the note and re- gard 1t as an attempt ct mediation, the bare suggestion of which, while the coun- try is snaarting under the sting of de- feat, creates irrttation.
 The Vedomosti points out that the United States should have initiated a joint action a fortnight ago to restrain Japan and that 1t Is now too late. Fur thermore, Russia. after her experience at Berlin. has had enough of interna- donal congresses.
 Tho following clause in Secretary Hey'e note is considered here to be im- poTtant:
 "s. proposing joint representa- tions to Russia and Japan to prevail upon them to circumscribe the war op- erations as far as possible with a view to preventing disorders in China, which might threaten international trade and to the preserving of the integrity of China
 The prompt declaration of the neutrality of the United States. although expected as matter of course, has made a good impression here. The bitterness against Great Britain, already great during the negotiations between Russia and Japan. is assuming alarming proportions The supposition that Great Britain evacuated Wei-Hat-Wei to give Japan a base called out the deepest indignation, which has been still further indaned by the publi- cation in Great Gritain of a Blue Book on Thibet containing the offensive lan- guage of Lord Lansdowne. Even in less stirring times would have caused a pub llc sensation.
 The first authentic news of the fighting at Chemulpo has been printed here vaguely, and without details. The ad- miralty has issued specific orders that no telegrams from the Far East, either for private persons, newspapers or news agencies. will be transmitted. The ad- mitalty will give out ofliciaI reports.

Bill Elastic in Character

Columbia. s. C.. Feb. su-The LegisIa- ture to-day passed bill establishing a State Department of Commerce and In- migration. The bill is elastic In eharac- ter and enables the department to look not alone to securing settlers of desira- ble character, but to inducing all kinds of investments in the State. The move Is due to the peculiar conditions prevail. ing in the South resulting from the cot, ton growing and manufacturing situa- tion. the demand for farm labor. the probability of the opening of the Panama canal an dthe development of the West Indian trade. It Is thought when once the department is established, other Southern States will follow the plan.

HAxAsHI's CRITICISM.
The Baron Did Not Know What He
 WAa Talking About.


 Washington, Feb u.-Regardlng the criticism of Baron Hayashi on Secretary Hays note to the powers. 1t can be stated that the word Manchuria Is not used in the note. nor has the State De- pertinent authorized any interpretation of the note so as to specifically include that province, thought the State Depart ment will not be led into a discussion of details at this stage of the negotiations. By high oficlsl it was said tonight that the powers agreed to preserve the 'integ- rity of China in 1900 and that 1t was not specified how much of China was included in the general term. Secretary Hays note merely follows the lines of the prins eipiA then enunciated.
 Representatives of fourteen powers at- tended Secretary Hays weekly diplomatic reception at the State Department to- day All came to inquire about the Far Eastern situation and especially about the seeretary's note to the powers. The British Ambassador was among the cali ers. Great Britain has informed this Government of her adherence to the principle set forth in the note but the formal acceptance of the London Govern rnent has not yet come
