Eternal Vigilance Is Needed.

While our government has just ap-
rroprIated about 800, 100000 fer i'm
provement OF the navy, including the
construction of three additional war.
ships to those already under contract,
1t Is lnd' ed startling that from Il state
ment made 10y no less authority
than Admiral n. T.. Mason, Chief OF
the Bureau Of Ordnance of the Naval
Department., we iinl our service has
only enough torpcdocs in reserve to
fire Il single round from the vessels
that are equipped with torpedo tubes.
Should sudden emergency arise, all
our torpedo boats and des,royers, az
well as that equipment on our battle
ships, would be worthless after the
first round. This is scarcely less
alarming than was the discovery. made
several years ago, that chemical action
had destroyed the efficiency OF all the
powder in the government arsenals,
and that there was not enough powder
available for the army to fire single
round Of all the guns.
1t is, OF course, relying solely upon
good luck to regard such conditions as
not fraught with the gravest danger.
What should the unexpected happen,
and we be found totally unprepared
for using one OF our best means of
defense, as we'll as oflense, against q
determined foe! The danger is aug.
mented by other considerations. There
is only one firm that can make and
sell the Whitehead torpedo, and their
appliances are costly and such as can
only turn them out slowly. Torpedoes
require time for construction. The
capacity of the plant is limited, as tor.
pedoes never have attained place as
a merchantable commodity, are made
to order, and it requires about four
months to construct each one.
Now that the condition is known, it
is not improbable that our government
will take immediate steps to at least
keep in pace with other nations re.
garding this great auxiliary of modern
warfare.

Hearing on the ANTI

Especial to tIhe Jersey city News.'')

Special TO .'The Jersey city News.')
TRENTON, March Is, 1905.-The
Senate yesterday passed the Mckee bill
which enables the Paterson capitalists
to construct an elevated railroad from
that city to the West Shore ferry at
Weehawken. It provides that the nlu-
nicipal authority Of Paterson must FIRST
be obtained before such franchise can be
granted, and that the right or consent of
abutting property owners along the line
of the proposed route must be secured
BY assent or condemnation proceedings,
and that contracts already made must
be ratified.
The bin win now be taken to the As
sembly where. it is expected, it will be
passed without opposition. AS soon as it
is signed by The Governor, work on the
proposed '.Ln road viii be commenced.
The promoters expect that the road will
be completed and in operation about
year hence.
Tie Senate Committee on Public
Health yesterday gave hearing on As
semblyman Henry's ant-toxin bill,
which provides for the establishment of
a State anti-toxin laboratory, for the
purpose. of furnishing free anti-toxin to
needy patients, The bill was passed by
the Assembly last week and considerable
opposition has developed against it in the
Senate That is why a hearing was
given Yesterday.
I1r. Barringer, president Of the State
Pharmaceutical Association, and DR.. A.
K Mulford, of Philadelphia, vigorously
opposed the bill, claiming that it would
work much injury throughout the State.
Those who spoke in favor of the bill
We're: Henry J. Gottlob, secretary of the
State Federation of Labor; A. Quinn.
of the State brotherhood Of Carpenters
of New Jersey: NJ. Feeney, of the Cen
tral Labor Union, and S. Bauterville, of
East Orange.
The committee reached no decision,
but as a powerful lobby sent here by
the drug trust is working TO defeat
the measure. it is thought that it will
be allowed to sleep in committee.
The Senate passed the bill introduced
by Speaker Avis, which provides for an
appropriation of $4,000 this year and
$4,000 annually hereafter to be expend-
ed for short courses in practical and
scientific agriculture in the State Agri-
cultural College.

said no one has yet refused TO sign it.
The protest will be forwarded TO Albany

New York is the greatest financial
centre in the country. This tax bill
would take away a large part Of the
