Washington. Feb. 27-Although the
House Naval Committee is going slow
about the purchase of submarine torpedo
raft. there is a chance that appropfia-
tons for five Lake submarines will be
carried in the military bill.
A board. consisting of Major Arthur
Murray, Captain Charles ]. Bailey and
Captain Charles F. Parker. inspected the
Lake boat protector at Newport. r. l..
for certain work in submarine defense. it
displayed unsurpassed qualities. The bay
was filed with ice during the trial. and.
when rising from submersion. the vessel
had to break through an ice foe.
The board report concludes as follows:
THE board recommends consideration
Of the foregoing by the General STAFF. The
question of the use of the Whitehead tor
pedoes as a part of the fxed mine in

nels are wide and water swift. this use
Of the Whitehead torpedo will be very
limited. With boats of this type the
within certain effective range in all ordi-
nary channels. and this alone will war

THE board recommends. in
Of its conclusions. that five Of these boats
be purchased for use in submarine defense,

Among this class Will be many who will
decide in favor Of visiting the st. Louis
Worlds Fair and letting the European
trip wait another year.
II don't think. however, that the EXPOSE
ton is going to affect the regular summer
exodus to any very great extent. The fact
that Howitzerland and other famous for
eign resorts may be expected to be less
crowded than is usual this summer will
cause many persons to choose this very
time to go over there. The falling off. il
any. will be more marked In the second

so important a attraction as the Fair
keep them at home"
This is also the opinion Of James A.
Wright, Jr.. who is in charge of all the
passenger business Of the International
Mercantile Marine Company.
1T looks now" he said, 'as though the
passenger traffic from the other side this
summer will be unusually heavy and that
more people will come over here to attend
the st. Louis Exposition than did in 1893
to the Worlds Fair in Chicago. I don't

This summers white shirt waist
