BRITAIN IN PANIC OVER NAVY
GERMANY WILL HAVE II OR 81
DREADNoUGHTs IN 1912.
Ministry and Opposition Outbid Each
Other in Soaring Parliament to
Take Precautions.

LONDON. March lin the house OF
commons yesterday Reginald Mckenna
first lord of the admiralty. made the an
nual statement on the navy estimates be-
fore crowded house
He said that his proposals were of eX-
ceptional gravity from financial point of
view. but, no matter at what cost. the
safety of the country must be assured and
ress of foreign powers
Several of the powers were rapidly de-
veloping their naval strength. but none OF
them at a pace comparable with Germany.
he said.
Mr.. Mckenna then gave statistics show
ing that the British government has not
set the pace in the naval construction.
He concluded
Our chief difficulty is that we do not
know at what rate Germany is building,
ana when her program will be finished.
Mr.. Mckenna's detailed account of Ger
manys preparations greatly astonished
and impressed the house
Mr.. Balfour. the opposition leader. said
he approached the subject in no alarmist
spirit. but for the first time in modern
history Great Britain was face to face
with naval situation so dangerous that
it was difficult to realize all it portended.
The program of the government was ut
terly insufficient, he said, and he asked
the government TO use to the utmost the
enormous resources at its disposal to re-
store not two-power standard, but a
one-power standard in the matter of ships
Of first-class power.
Mr. aBlfour stirred the house by as
sorting that he had information that the
government did not possess, and figuring
would have twenty-one, not seventeen.

Money Continues Easy.
The fact that a noted financier. now
travelling on the Pacific coast, both for
business and health. had decided to take
a yachting trip down to Panama tended
to silence the element in Wall street

Germany Disputes Figures.

BERLIN. March 1.-THE discussion
in the British house of commons of
the naval estimates is areusing TIE
greatest interest in Germany.
Admiral Won Tirptz. secretary of the
admiralty, speaking before the budget
committee today, declared that the fig
ureS regarding the construction of
German Dreadnoughts, given by keGi-
Maid Mckenna. first lord of the admI-
rally, in the course of the commons de-
bate. We're entirely wrong. He did not

Germany would possess not seven
teen but only thirteen Dreadnoughts

Early Hour Declines.

As might have been been expected when
the actual schedule of the proposed Payne
tariff bill was disseminated through the
financial district at IL o'clock today. the
first effect was to cause a decline about
equal to the mornings gains for most of
the rails and industrials.
United States Steel common suffered
perhaps the greatest loss as a direct re-
suit of the published tariff schedule and
from its high quotation of 45ss fell by
easy stages liz points down to AIS, just
one point below it's opening quotation this
morning
Before an hour had elapsed. however,
and after traders had had a chance to
study the details of the new tariff bill,
United States Steel common and most of
the other stocks rebounded to prices con-
siderablY above their Oneuiug figures.

Suddenly Jean stopped again. There

work, and prepare the work for us7
Verses i3-16-Is God pleased, or
displeased II we do not accept what
he says. when II is not clear to us?
Verses 17-tS--Did Saul at this
time receive the Holy Ghost, or ut
the time of his conversion, and when
