Washington, April 24.-The Senate
today adopted Senator Simmons reso-

Naples, April 24-Madame Anna
Gould, formerly Countess De Castel-
lane, arrived here today from New
York on board the steamer Friedrich
Der Gross and was met in the harbor
by Prince Helie De Sagan, to whom
she is reported to be engaged. When
the steamer came into the harbcr, the
prince was one of the first men to get
on board. He rushed to Madame
Gould's cabin, met her at the door,
lifted his hat and kissed her hand. The
prince was much annoyed by the
presence Of reporters and refused to
be interviewed. The tutor of Madame
Gould'a children. however, WAS more
accessible and in a brief interview
said

Prince DE Sagan was greatly an
noyed at the crowd Of reporters and
finally turned to Captain Blocker, the
commander of the FREDERICK Der
Crosse, and begged him in German to
make the reporters keep away.

had been sometime in conversation, the

MANUEL WILL PLAY
PortugaPs Ruler to Settle
to Tune Of $750,000
For Jewels Sold by Carlos TO
Meet Claim Of Creditors.
His Investigation Proves Truth Of
Republican Charges.

Lisbon, April 24.-When King Miguel
was deposed as ruler Of Portugal in
1884 the crown jewels, valued at ST.
Goo, 900, We're confiscated and deposited
in the Bank Of Portugal as the prop
erty of the state. Recently the Repub-
lican press has charged that a large
portion of these jewels have been sold
without the consent of Parliament to
meet the expenses of the royal house.
King Manuel thereupon ordered an
inventory made and it proved that
Jewels to the value of $750,000 We're
missing Furthermore the adminiStra-
tor of the royal house declared that
the government. which at that time
was controlled by the 'Rotative" par
ties had consented to their removal
The governor of the Bank of Portugal
admitted that the sale had been made
upon the urgent demand of King car
los, who desired to meet certain press
ing debts of the royal household in
order to avoid a scandal.
AS soon as thcS" facts had come to
light, King Manuel summoned the min
lister of finance and announced his in
tentiOn of personally refunding the
value Of the missing jewels to the
royal treasury. The attitude of the
young King in this matter has evoked
universal admiration, even among the
Republicans.

THE NAVAL BILL.
Senator Hale Says Navy Is Growing
As Fast As Is Necessary.

Washington April 24.-The debate On
the proposition of Senator Pyles of
Washington to increase the number OF
battleships authorized in the naval
appropriation bill from two to four
was today opened by Senator Hale who
submitted a statement of the naval es-
Establishment already provided for,
which he said would permit fleet as
large as that now making it's way UP
the Pacific coast and leave a larger
fleet for the Atlantic coast.
There had been authorized, he said,
including the authorizations of tho
pending bill. q battleships and a great

as battleships.
~ do not think" said Mr. Hale,
that senators and representatives
have appreciated these facts. We are
not compelled to build another great
fleet in order to have protection eth
er on the Pacific or the Atlantic
,, Senator Bacon asked Senator Hale
if he had any positive knowledge that
tho fleet now in the Pacific was to be
sent around the world, and Mr.. Hale
replied that he had no direct and posi-
tive information, but from the legisla-
ton that had been recommended he
was sure the world was preparing to
encrcle the globe.
Senator Pyles based his contention in
favor of four battleships on the posi-
bility of war with Japan. If, he de-
clared was should come, our western
coast would be found unprotected by
battleships. Hence, he concluded that
the time had come not for war but for
such measures as would insure secur-
ity and peace.
Mr.. Hale said that legislation had
been recommended "as being suitable
and essential to maintain our rank
ana dignity in view Of the fact that

haps Africa, the Mediterranean and
European ports

men we're in turn admitted as deacOns
and elected as members of the Maine
conference. Three local preachers, c.
F. Nilsen of Berlin, n. H., Robert M
Pierce o. Portland and George Ingram
Of New field, were elected to local dea-
cons orders.
The matter OF the election of two
delegates to the general conference at

Rev. F. A. Leitch Of Skowhegan. Rev.
G.. A. Martin of Rumford Falls, Rev
A. A. Lewis of GOrham, Rev. A. S.
Ladd OF Ogunquit and Rev. j. II. Rob-
er;s Of Fairfield were named as tellers

tons were made, and when the blank
slips were distributed the members
wrote their choice upon the slips
which were at once collected. The
first ballot resulted as follows:
Whole number of votes ............. 50

About a dozen others were given one
or two votes each. Mr. Parsons hay
ing the necessary majority was de-
clared elected and another ballot was
token for the second delegate. With
out waiting to learn the result of this
second ballot the conference at 1915
adjourned for dinner
While the tellers We're counting the
votes Prof. G. w. Rischel and Prof.
Hewitt, representing respectively
Boston University and Wesleyan Uni
versity, were introduced and addressed
the conference briefly. Prof. Rischel
spoke especially of the theological de-
partmont of Boston University which
has now about 200 students. Prof
Hewitt brought the greetings of the
Connecticut college in which Maine
MethOdiStS are always interested.
Prof. Hewitt is a Maine boy. and it is
an interesting coincidence that he was
a ClaSSmate of Rev. Mr. Dunnack at
BoWdoin in the class of 1897. He is
