WEATHER CONDITIONS.
Warmer, With Much Less Humidity
Scheduled for Washington.

According to belief at the weather bu-
reau the people of Washington and vicinity
are in for considerable spell of dry wealth
er and considerably hotter weather than we
have had, but probably no worse to bear,
owing to the fact that It will be dry heat.
The rainy spell just ended commenced the
9th of last month. Now the outlook is
aboutthree weeks of continuous. though not
quite continual. rain. Now the outlook is
for correspondingly long dry spell. The
thermometer was still creeping up at a late
hour this afternoon, and will probably reach
SO or "a before 1t stops. Tomorrow II is ex-
pected to be fair and warmer and the next
day warmer still.

Training Ship for Great Lakes.


The President was today asked to take up
with the Canadian authorities the question
of naval militia traing ship on the great
lakes. In 1898 Representative Bouten of
Illinois, secured an appropriation of 1925, OO0
to construct a eraining ship for the naval
militia of the great lakes, but the ship was
never built because 1t was held that 1t
would be in violation of existing treaties
against war vessels on the lakes. Represent
tative Boutel went to the White House to-
day with Capt. w B. Purdy, who COM
mands the naval militia of Chicago. They
represented to the President that ii was ex-
tremey important that the naval militia on
the great lakes should have some help in
the way of a vessel, and asked whether
something could not be done to get the as
sent of the government. tt was pointed out
that the vessel would not be armored and
could hardly be ranked as a war ship In the
meaning of the treaties In existence. The
President said he would be glad to assist
the naval militiamen on the lakes II he
thought II could be done without objection.
He will have the question looked into by
the State Department.
