NAVAL BILL PASSED.
End of Over Weeks Discussion in the
House

At o'clock last evening the House final
ly passed the naval appropriation BILL
after having had it under consideration for
more than a week. During the day there
were party contests on a number of propo-
sitions, especially on an effort of different
minority members to secure an amendment
to fix the price of armor plate at the fig
ure bid by the Midyale Steel Company.
Several amendments were ruled out on
points of order, and the republican leaders
by skillful parliamentary tactics left the
matter of armor plate in the discretion of
the Secretary of the Navy An Intellectual
attempt was made to have the eight-hour
law applied to all ship construction. The
contest over submarine boats was quite
exciting, and an amendment finally was
adopted which leaves the question to the
type OF boat open. but increases the amount
or the appropriation for such boats The
minority failed to secure a record vote on
the proposition to recommft with instruc-
tons the proposed instructions being de-
clared out of order w

George c. Hough of Washington, rep
resenting the Master Builders Association.
opposed the bill by indorsing what had
been said against the measure. He pre-
scented protest prepared by his association.
/ Experience in Labor Organization.
Mr. Hough said that for five years he
was the secretary of labor organization
and that the average attendance at it's
meetings was but 10 per cent of it's MEM
bershlp This organization had promul-
gated and carried on strike by the
action of but ~ per cent of it's members
He had in the past few days asked fully
twenty members of the labor unions about
the pending bill, and none of them had
ever heard of it,
p. D. Oviatt of Rochester N Y. who
said he represented the entire invested
capital of Rochester. and the combined
employers of Jamestown and Elmira, N.

clared the country on the verge of vol
canic commercial and economic revolution
There was not, he said, manufacturer or
merchant that was not trembling with
fear and misgiving. If the committee even
reported this BILL he said, it would create

Conditions in Central America.

Mr.. Dolliver then went on to outline the
condition of affairs in Central America
since that time, showing that the United
States had often stepped in to protect
rights and prevent interference with transit
across the isthmus. He outlined the nu-
merous attempts of Panama to free her
self from Colombian rule, and told how in
1907 revolution was only prevented from
being successful by the promise of Colom-
bia to allow the building of the canal He
continued:
1--WE have at last allowed Panama to free
herSeif, and as soon she succeeded
President Roosevelt recognized her indie
pendence. DR.. Smyth says that we were
too hasty in so doing. but did not France
and Holland recognize her independence
almost as quickly we? In recognizing
Panama's Independence we did clever act,
which will be appreciated by the Whole
world.
''At last we have canal across the 18TH
mus in sight, and within the next ten or fif-
teen years there will be a shorter passage
between the two oceans. 1t is an enor-
nous undertaking to build that canal. one
which no country but this would dare to
undertake, and one which lifts us above
the rest of the world
ITO suspect our government of trickery
in securing this great benefit to the world
is impossible. We have a good government
one that represents the best purposes of
the people. At the head of a nation is a
man who is acting for the best interests of
the people, and, although he is young. he
is surrounded by sagacious counsellors"
