WOULD ADD TORPEDO
BOATS TO THE NAVY
Amendment to Appropriation Bill Pro-
viding for Five of These Destroy
ers in Place of Three.

In the Committee Of the Whole con-
sideratiOn of the naval appropriation bill
was resumed, after an agreement had
been reached to devote tomorrow TO the
consideration of pension bills.
The amendment OF Mr.. Roberts CRep.,
Mass.) to increase from two TO five the
number Of submarine torpedo boats .au-
thorized I'm the bill was considered.
Mr.. Roberts argued that the splendid
work Of the japanese torpedo fleet in it's
attack on the Russian feet at Port
Arthur had demonstrated torpedo boats
TO be the greatest engines of naval war
fare He quoted Admiral Dewey 20 the
effect that with two submarine tor
pedo boats. he could meet the strongest
squadron of England. in the Atlantic
Ocean. eight miles from Sandy Hook,
and keep the fleet from reaching New
York city.
Mr.. Roberts read a letter which he
had received from Admiral Dewey since
the recent Port Arthur engagement in
which Admiral Dewey expressed the
opinion that this Government had walt
ed long enough before constructing ad-
citioHal submarine torpedo boats. as |
believe they have demonstrated their
effectiveness, and further expressing
the belief that the number OF such boats
provided for in the bill might well be
increased

while they deal with the enemy at Port
Arthur. Dalny, Hardin, and other
towns.
Besides the foregoing. news agency
has received a dispatch dated at
Vladivostok that foreign warships have
been lowering about the place
The Daily Mall says eGstorially:
The latest move of the Japs seems
reflection Of some operation ty the Japa-
nese army in the directica of VlaGi-
vostok.
Also the fact that a japanese land
ing had been reported TO Vicerry Alex
ie6 would at once explain what he
has been doing Up to now there has
been somewhat of mystery in his sud-
den and hasty departure from Port Ar
thur.
1T would seem that the Japanese
must have disembarked about 4 week
ago. as soon as the Vladivostok squad
ron had been driven back TO harbor.
while the inner recesses of Possiet
Bay are frozen over three months in
winter. it is stated that a landing can
be effected at certain points ut the pres-
ent season OF the year

The country through which the
Japanese must move TO attack the Rus

it has highways. and that such a move

bodies of troops.
European dispatches announce that
the Japanese are supposed TO be moving
from Possiet Bay toward Kirin. an old

Justice Refuses to Give
Them Transcript of
Evidence.
RETIRE AT II O'CLOCK
Discussion of Case Had Not
Begun at 1i:45 When
IaleSmen Returned.

Justice Pritehard concluded the read
ing of his charge and the prayers to the
jury in the Postofice conspiracy case
at II o'clock this morning, and the jury
retired.
Forty-five minutes later the july
came into court again to hear the de-
. clsion of Justice Pritchard upon its
request for testimony. The note to
the justice said the jurors wanted the
note, drafts, checks, the private ac-
count book of Lorenz, and the tran
script of the testimony.
Transcript Is Refused.
Justice Pritchard gave the book,
note, drafts, and checks which had
been offered by both sides, but de-
cllned to allow the transcript of tes-
timony TO be sent to the jury room.
He said:
Il do not think it good practice to
allow the testimony to 90 to the jury
1t would mean a retrying of the whole
case in the juryroom, and that is not
contemplated by the law.
If the jury desires information
upon any point of law or testimony.
viii be glad TO enlighten it at any
time, and if necessary ] viii give
further instructions to the jurors"
Carl Petersen, who had been select
ed as foreman by his colleagues, said
that up to the time of returning to
the courtroom the jurors had not be-
gun the discussion of the case.
Interest Maintained.
The seats in the courtroom this morn
ing were all filled. but there were only
a few persons standing. The three de-
fendants-Machen. Lorenz. and Diller 3.
Grof-wore troubled countenances. as
did the women Of their families who
were ptoscnt. They listened with the
closest attention TO the reading of the
charge and prayers, and the spectators
were also deeply interested in the in
structions given the jury in one OF the
most famous prosecutions ever under
taken by the Government.
Messrs- Beach and Taggart were the
only Government attorneys present. but
all Of the attorneys for the defense were
in the room.
Justice Pritchard read so rapidly that
while his voice was clear and distinct
It was difficult FOR those in the back
of the room TO catch what h was say
ing.
At 1:50 Justice Pritchard sent a mes
sage 10 the jury room. asking II the
jury were ready with verdict. The
justice said he would be in the court
house until about 5 p. m. After that he
would go home and would be ready 20
return and receive verdict up to any
reasonable hour. but would not come
down at II or Y at night TO get IL.
