DONE WITH NAVAL BILL.

Washington, D. C., May 16.-The naval appropriation bill, carrying S100,- OOO,O00, was completed today in the house after one of the busiest days of the present congress.
 The feature of the days debate grey; out of the attempt to defeat the appro- priation for the largest battleship of it's class in the world. and the tenor Of the speeches for the big ship was that the American republic must be abreast of the nations of the world in the strength of her navy.
 The opponents talked for peace, dis armament and arbitration, and insisted that there was no national need of such a large navy. The amendment intro duced by MT. Burton of Ohio to strike out the appropriation for a rival to the English ship Dreadnaught was defeat ed as was the amendment leaving the construction of the battleship to the discretion of the secretary of the navy after the second Hague conference. A final vote on the bill will be taken to- morrow.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE

New York. May 16.-The Washington correspondent of the New York Fri pune, commenting in the Tribune on the senate incident, gives the memor- andum mentioned by the correspondent of the Chicago Tribune. The text fol- lows:
 ITO the President: The game of the railroad senators is to support Bailey's amendment and induce him to agree to a broad right of review. What that Is to be is not certain, but the prin- cipal object is to beat him. meaning the president. MT. Tillman, however, considers himself as acting with the president to pass the review clause with the minimum amount of cour-

A few days ago the Douglas Dis patch printed an interview with MT. B. P. Cheney of Boston, one of the heaviest stockholders of the Atchison. and also the Phoenix and Eastern rail- road. in which he was made to say. among other things, that the Phoenix and Eastern had been sold to the Southern Pacific and that Phoenix would never be on the Atchison main l.ne.
 As to the latter statement it was never supposed that the main line of the Atchison would ever run through Phoenix. As to the sale of the Phoe- nix and Eastern those who were well informed were aware that MT. Cheney had been misquOted and believed that whatever he may have said related to what had been often rumored, that the Southern Pacific and the Phoenix and Eastern might reach an amicable agreement as to the line within dis puted territory. All reports of the sale of the road which have been cir culated from time to time have had no other basis than the possibility of such a future arrangement.
 MT Cheney was in the city yester- day and last night as he was passing through the city north from trip or inspection over the Phoenix and East ern. in company with General Super intendent w. A. Drake. the foregoing statement was secured.
 Mir Drake, speaking of the progress of work on both the P. & E. and the A & C., said that bridge building was being pushed with vigor on the former line and operations on the latter were being carried forward as rapidly as possible.
 MT. Cheney, who is travelling in the private ear of President r. M- Mur- phy. arrived yesterday morning from the south. where he has been engaged in an inspection of his extensive in terests.
 He was accompanied by MT. E. B. Gage and Messrs. Jennings and Boal Of San Diego.

GAR WILL COINCIDE
 PARTIAL AMNESTY
And if Pressed He Will Accept a Con-
 serVative Cabinet.

St. Petersburg, May 16.-In spite of the fear that the addresses in reply to the speech from the throne, moved Tuesday in the lower house of parlia- ment, would precipitate an immediate conflict between the crown and parlia- ment, the Associated Press is in a position to state that Emperor Nicho- las is determined to avoid a breach if possible. Not only will partial am nesty be granted, but the emperor is ready to replace the Goremykin min istry with a cabinet chosen from among conservative members of the majority in the lower house in the hope of effecting compromise. He is not willing. however. to permit the majority to select the premier, but once such a concession is made 1t is difficult to understand how the em- peror can halt half way and refuse q full constitutional monarchy which government by parliamentary majority involves. Practically the parliament has already won a great victory.

 THE ANTI-PASS PROVISION.
 The consideration of the rate bill in committee of the whole was concluded and the measure was then reported to the senate, where there will be an Op- portunity to review and alter all the amendments heretofore made. Practi- cally the entire day was devoted to consideration of the anti-pass amend ment, which was adopted after making so many exceptions as to arouse laughter in the senate every time the provision was read.

Washington D. C., May 16.-The re- cent efforts of the president and the democratic senatorial leaders to reach an agreement on the rate bill received further notice in the senate today from Senators Bailey and Tillman. The matter was referred to by the Texas senator in the course of a personal eX- planation called out by an article in the Chicago Tribune, charging MT. Bailey with failure to find common ground, and by MT. Tillman in a speech in sup port of MT. Bailey and in presenting a further statement from former Senator Chandler. Tn his address Mr. Bailey denounced the article in question as q 'lie" and the author and inspirer of it as liars"
 MT Chandler was given by the Tri- bune as authority for the statement that TiIlman had been suspicious of Bailey, who, it was also stated, really opposed rate legislation and was in constant conference with Senator Ald- rich for the purpose of defeating the bill. After this statement was read MT. Bailey took the floor, and after a pre- liminary statement to the effect that he had taken no part in the question of veracity between the president and NJ. Chandler he said: "I denOunce the publication as a deliberate and ma licious lie. I denOunce the cOrrespon- dent as an unqualified, deliberate and malicious liar. I denounce the man who inspired that statement as an un qualified, deliberate and malicious liar. whoever he may be. however high the office he holds

 Presidents Message.

New York, May 16.-The Standard Oil company today issued to its share holders a statement in reply to the special message recently sent to con- gress by President Roosevelt and the report on the country's oil industry by Commissioner Garfield Of the bureau of corporations which accompanied it. The statement is signed by c. NJ. Pratt, secretary, and was issued by order of the board of directors. It denies positively the charge that the Standard oil company benefited by secret rates for the transportation of its products.
 The statement declares that the esti- mate that the company saves $750,OO0 year through the operation of certain freight rates could only have been ar rived at by theorizing.
