INOPPORTUNE ARRIVAL.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-The
Presidents message in support Of his
plan for appropriation for four new
battleships, concerning which there
has been so much speculation was
received today by both Houses Of
Congress. There was considerable
delay in reading the message in both
the House and Senate. In the Sen
ate, because Foraker was engaged in
making his speech and the attendant
confusion following its delivery, re-
suited in its being read at a disad-
vantage
In the House, the House was in a
committee of the whole on the navi-
CATION bill when the message arrived,
and this and a typographical error in
the speech which was se1Zed by op-
ponents Of the measure to delay its
reading, until after the House had
taken up the provision regarding the
battleships. The message therefore
was not read until just before the
close of the days work.
It was enthusiastically received by
the advocates of a larger navy. The
ants later gave vent to their feelings
by authorizing a reading of the peti-
tion from a number of citizens OF
New York City which protested at
the Extravaganza OF spending $780,
100000 for four battleships."
The demonstration afforded the
affair an opportunity to judge Of the
temper of the House as a whole on
the proposition. 1t was evident that
the opponents of four battleships are
in majority although the final vote
may be close

LIVELY DEBATE IN HOUSE.

WASHINGTON. April l4.-The
expected fight in the House over the
question whether or not there shall
be two or four battleships authorized
for the coming year did not material
ize today while the naval appropria-
ton bill was under consideration. In
stead most of the session was devoted
to a lively debate in regard to naval
station in the Philippine Islands The
supporters OF Subig Bay. led by Hoss
and Hobson, were victorious despite
the vigorous opposition from both
sides of the Chamber. Accordingly
the sum of 100000 was recommend
ed by the committee for improving
and developing the naval station at
Olongapo, Subig Bay, was allowed
to stand. The special message from
the President urging four battleships
was read and elected loud applause
from the advocates OF the proposition.
The naval bill was not concluded
when the House recessed until to-
morrow.

FULTON'S REPLY.

PORTLAND, April l4.-Senator
Fulton, before an audience Of about
5000 persons tonight defended him
self against the attacks which have
been recently made in this city by
Francis ] Hency Senator Fulton's
reply was temperate in tone and
judged by the applause with which
the the various parts of his speech
were received it was convincing to his
hearers. Fulton impugned Heney's
motives in coming to Oregon, charg-
ing that his interest was the out
growth of personal animosity rather
than in his interest in good govern
ment. He denied each of Heney's &C
cusations OF wrong-doing, and at
tackled the credibility Of the evidence
his naatgonist has put forth. Fulton
declared there was nothing in any of
his private correspondence that re-
hected discredit to him when it was
interpreted in the proper light He
accused Heney Of having had former
State Senator Brownell indicted in
order to frighten Brownell into giving
up letters from Fulton to Brownell,
and declared that i. P. Mays whom
Heney declared was supporter Of
Fulton's had consistently voted
against Fulton Off the United States
Senator to the end. He also said the
amount paid Heney by the govern
mcnt for conducting the land fraud
trials was something over $54000.
