regarded us responsible for the an
nonnoehent by Mr.. Hale that he
should propose an amendment nppr.-
priating S7000.000 toward tho con.
struction OF the ships.
The President stated his position ON
this point with especial emphasis ana

the bill as passed by the House was
simply paper provision for naval

islation by authorized, hut not appro-
priated for ships. he declared he will
defeat the bill by The exercise OF HIS
constitutional mower. There Is not
the slightest doubt that the President
ceased his fight for four new battle
ships according TO the evidence OF
senators who talked with him today.
Senators who are with the Presi-
dent In his fight on this proposition
admit tonight that a careful survey
of their strength In the Senate gives /.
vote OF &c in that body for the four
ships. Significance Is attached to this
pol of the Senate in that it is said TO
show loss to the President of some OF
his staunchest supporters In thar
body.
Senator Lodge is understood 10
have quit the fight for the fall navy
program advocated by the President.
and TO have given his reasons PER-
sonally to the President for SO DO
ing.
The loss of the influence of the Mas
sachusetts senator is regarded as re-.
sponsible for the weakness shown by
the poll and it is believed by those,
fayoring the program that the Presi-
dents senatorial supporters had en-
tered the fight with the yigor he hos
evinced, his desire in this direction
might have been realizd
