Washington, Feb. S.-The REPORT
of Admiral Converse to Secretary of
the Navy Mctcalfc on the result Of
his Investigations into the charges
thats the design and construction OF
American battleships was defective,
has been made. The report will not
be gwen TO the public until President
Roosevelt has mad time to invests
gate it
1t is stated, however. that the re-
port will show by comparisons with
foreign navies, that the American
ships, when built were up TO the
standard, and that now they are now
the equal of any in the world as
whole.
Admiral Converse's report is the re
suit Of adverse criticisms On the nevy
which were given wide publication
in many of the leading newspapers
and magazines OF this country and
England as well. and which were the
sensation of Washington few weeks
ago
The conviction IS steadily growing
that the Aldrich currency bill viii
not pass the house of representatives.
John Sharp Williams, the leader OF
the minority, has made a positive
statement that it will not, and he pro
pbses to introduce bill that viii bet
ter provide for the protection OF the
people than the Aidrich plan, and
will show no favoritism to any class
Of hnanciers 'of the country.
The democratsa in the house VII
oppose the Aldrich bill solidly and
many republicans are against it.
These, with the democrats, will form
majority in the house, and under
these conditions the bill is doomed.
The bill. however, is likely to pass
he senate without opposition. though
it is said that opposition TO it IS
crystalzing GA4ly The west and
south is not favorable to the bill, as
these sections are Disseminated
against in its provisions.

Jackson, Miss. Feb. s. The be-
lief now prevails that the senate will
follow the example of the lower
house and pass the statutory prohi-
bitior bill without dissenting vote.
There are more avowed opponents
in the upper body than in the lower
branch. but in view of the fact that
statutory prohibition is a foregone
conclusion. and the temperance lead
ers have shown disposition to be
yield gracefully to the inevitable and
at Dec al, it is thought that the
anti-prohibitionist in the senate will
yield gracefully to the Inevitable and
cast their vote in favor Of the meas
ure
The bill will go to the senate Mon
day, and reference tc, committee will
not be necessary, since it was con-
sidered in joint session of the two
liquor traffic committees. Under a
suspension OF the rules it can dis
place all 'othc. business on the cal
cndar and be called for immediate
passage, but it is likely the temper
nee leaders will decide TO wait until
Tuesday morning in order to secure
full attendance of members
Statutory prohibition will put out
of business the open saloons in the
counties OF Warren, Adams, Tunica..
Washington, Hancock, Harrison and
Jackson Within the past year local
option elections have been held in
Jefferson and Madison counties, and
the saloons in those counties ordered
to pass out OF existence at the ex-
piration of existing licenses.
In reality, there are now only sew
en- open saloon counties in the state
and the liquor dealers have realized
FOR six months or more that the pre-
sent session Of the legislature would
put their business out of existence.
The saloons pay the state treas
,try about S2o5,ooo per year in Ii
cense money, and perhaps twice that
sum to the counties and municipali-
ties in which they exist. The CUTTING
off of this revenue will not be a ser
ious loss to- the commonwealth, OF
to the communities affected, for, like
