NEW YORK WOULD KEEP NAME
Naval Men Object to New Monster
6attIeship Taking Title of For-
naidabIe Cruiser
BY Associated Press.

BY Associa ted Press
WASHINGTON, April 1.-The sug-
gestion that the projected 2O,5O0-ton
battieship which is expected to be
authorized at the present session
should be named New York, involving
the abandonment of that name for the
armored cruised which was the flag
ship during the Spanish war of the At
lantic fleet, the most formidable naval
force ever gathered under the Ameri-
can flag, has caused some commotion
in naval circles.
While realizing the policy of secur-
ing support for the navy by Identify
ing the ships with great cities, many
naval officers hold that for sentimental
reasons ships should not be christened
with names Of vessels that have been
famous in their own time; that the lat
ter should be permitted to retain for
themselves whatever reputation they
may have earned.
The New York is set down as per-
haps the most serviceable ship in the
navy, according to the record. She has
been always ready for the hardest and
most unexpected service, and it is said
of her that seven years after she went
first into commission she made the run
from Boston to New York at an aver
age speed Of twenty knots, repeating
easily her initial trip which is
without precedent in the navy.
After undergoing two years. repairs at
the Boston navy yard the vessel will
be commissioned practically new ship
and the majority of naval officers be-
lieve that she should not be deprived of
the name and saddled with that of an
other and lesser city, as must be the
case under the law if any change is
made

wanted it referred to committee
and eulogized the railway magnate as
strongly as he had previously con-
demned him.
Councilman Blanchard wanted the
proposition referred to the committee
of the whole.
For Gods sake let this franchise
business die. Let Huntington bring
this up at some future time, but not
now," said Councilman Smith in tones
that showed that he meant what he
said.
Salons Grow Cautious
Assistant City Attorney Leslie ad-
vised the council that in order to make
its records complete, after sustaining
the mayors veto, 1t must again place
the ordinance on its passage and vote
it down.
The council was reluctant to do this,
but Councilman Smith set the ball
rolling by moving for a reconsidera-
tion.
Now" he added "I have moved to
go. Some one else will have to move
to place it on its passage. 1 won't
touch the thing again"
This was satisfactorily arranged
and the ordinance now is as much
out of the way as though it had never
come before the council.
The franchise case seemed to have
a salutory effect on the council how
ever. for while a number of ordi-
nances, reports and recommendations
entirely foreign to the franchise came
up for consideration later in the even
ing, nothing was done without being
referred to some committee. There
was deliberation over even the least
important affairs.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-03
HUNTINGTON is
STILL HOPEFUL
OF FRANCHISE

Mr.. Huntington's letter to the council
was then read. 1t was as follows;
THE franchise applied for by Z. w.
Gilmore for right of way in the river
bed having been disposed Of I take this
opportunity of saying that the rights
of Mr.. Gilmore were assigned to me
because of the fact that / realize that
such a right of way could be utilized
by the Pacific Electric Railway COM
pany greatly to the advantage of said
company, and equally for the benefit of
the people of Southern California Such
right of way would, to a great extent
solve the C, rryng of freight and pro-
duce by the electric railways without
detriment to the interests of any
citizen.
"It could also be utilized to connect
Pasadena and the territory north and
east of the city with the beaches by
a shorter line and one much more
adapted to the rapid transit of pas
sengers required in this modern day
than the line now in use for that
purpose. Having this in view, ask
question to a eommitte or to arrange
to take it up as d committee of the
whole at some date in the near future
when a hearing can be had, and, in
case you think it wise, the terms
agreed upon by which I can acquire
this right.
For the purpose of the roads
operated by me some changes would
be required in the terms from those
Of the Gilmore franchise, and perhaps
some slight changes in the route. In
a general way, however, that franchise
covers the route which I should like
TO utilize and this communication may
be considered as an application from
me for that right"
counciImen Sick of Question
1t was evidently an inopportune
time for Mr.. Huntington's representa-
tive to make this demand.
I'VE have had quite enough Of
franchises for awhile" said Council
man Smith. "It has been said that
Mr.. Huntington is behind this move
ment of Gilmore. and IL it is a fact
that he has tried to gain this fran
chise in this upderhand manner he
should never have another franchise
in this city: I move this communica-
tion be filed"
Houghton was as erratic as usual
yesterday. A few minutes before he
had been scoring Huntington unmer-
cifully, but when Smith asked that

stitutional Democrats, however, IS SeH-
orally conceded.
Many leading Octoberists, the strong

of boiling the ticket and voting for
constitutional Democrats on account Of
their distrust for their allies.

to the municipal convention, which in
turn will elect six members to the
lower house of parliament. The ballot
ing of the worknen, however, was al
most a complete farce as were the
elections of a fortnight ago in the
larger factories outside the city. Out
of sixty-seven establishments the woIk-
men of twenty-nine boycotted the cleo
ton, ana of the remainder only the
minority voted, and of those elected
about one-half were constitutional
Democrats and the other half Conser-
vatives, or members of the BLACK
Hundred" as they are now popularity
called. One man elected is now in
prison, and another declined to accept
election for fear that it would subject
him to persecution.
