LILLEY TALKS SHIPS
Confers With Admiral Brownson of the Navi-
 gation Bureau.
TO STRENGTHEN NAVY
Authorization of Two More Battleships by Con-
 gress Favored.

Washington, Oct. 18.-Representa tive Lilley of Connecticut, a member of the house naval committee, had a talk with Admiral Brownson, chief of the navigation bureau, to-day relative to the naval program to be presented to the next congress. Admiral Brown son, who is a member of the naval general board, was of the opinion that the navy should have two more bat tleships authorized at the next session. This does not mean that this should be the number of ships asked for, but that it should represent the number of ships to be actually provided for by congress. AS to the type of vessel to be built, Admiral Brownson said that he would not change the specifica- tions of the 10000 ton Delaware class, already contracted for, in any partic- ular.
 It was the admiral's idea that with the two vessels of this class now in the builders hands and the two that he hoped with unit of the 10000 ton class which would afford them the desired opportunity to make conpar- isons with ships of other types and sizes.

Since the departure of President Arthur T. Hadley for his long sojourn in Germany everything ran along smoothly at Yale with Eli Whitney and Rev. Anson PheIps Stokes in charge until yesterday morning when 1t was found impossible to open the safe in MT, Stokes office where the archives and incidentaity matters of a more useful nature are kept.
 The day before some little trouble had been had with the safe ana it was deemed advisable late in the aft ernoon to leave the entrance open until it could be fixed to open and close without trouble But in the evening Harold Phelps Stokes, a brother of the secretary and mem Der of the junior class'in Yale, was in the office and seeing the door ajar carefully closed it, thinking he was doing the right thing
 The secretary tried to open 1t. There was no response. Local safe crackers were called ia. August Ock- ert, the safe manufacturer, tried to get 1t open, without success. A block and tackle was used, ali the inmates of the administration building helping the machinery in pulling the door open and still 1t stuck This morning expert safe openers will come up from New York and try to open the door.
