COST Of NAVY TRIP
SATISFACTORY
CRUISE SAID by SECRETARY OF
THE NAVY MEYER TO HAVE
BEEN OF GREAT BENEFIT TO
THE NAVY.

Washington, May 14.-Secretary of
the Navy Meyer told the president
yesterday that the "rOund-the-wOrli'
trip of the battleship fleet had been
of great benefit. He declared that
the 16 ships of the Atlantic fleet
which had made the voyage around
the world were in excellent condition
and the fact that they were accom-
panied by repair ship kept them in
good order throughout the ship. He
referred to an article in an English
publication, saying that the result of
the trip was worth from $25, 100000
to s50,000,O00 to the United States
navy. The secretary said he had
found that the voyage had cost only
100000 more than if the battle
ships had been kept at home and as
signed to ordinary duties.
The battleships needed no extern
sive repairs, and the fact that they
were to remain at the navy yards a
month longer than at first cOntem-
plated was due not to a need of more
repairs, but to the fact that mater
ials needed for the repairs were not
available. The changes in the masts
had been decided on after extensive
tests and experiments, in which the
old masts had been fired into by big
guns. Some of the ships will leave
the yards with only one of these
skeleton masts, because the material
for a second one will not be avail
able in time to complete the change
before the beginning of the summer
maneuvers

REMOVE CATHOLIC
DISABILITY
BY Associated Press. !

London, May IA comprehen-
sive bill for the removal of Roman
Catholic disabilities and providing for
AN alteration in the accession oath
taken by the British sovereign was in
troduced by William Redmond in the
house of commons today. The Ro-
man Catholics never have ceased to
inveigh against the insulting refer
ences'' to certain beliefs in the mon
larch's accession declaration as Super
Istitive." The same opposition that
hitherto had detected any effort to
Ialter the oath again showed up today
when the petition, signed by 100000
persons against the removal of the
Roman Catholic disabilities was han l.
ed in just before Mr.. Redmond arose.
lRedmond's bill not only removes what
is regarded as the Objectionable por-
tion of the oath of accession but it
repeals the acts prohibiting residence
and the acquisition of property by
Jesuits and other monistic orders and
abolishes the disqualification which
prevents Catholics from filling the Of
fees of lord chancellor of Great Bri-
tain and lord lieutenant of Ireland
Premier Asquith gave cordial support
to the bill He declared the expul-
sion of Roman Catholic from the
lord chancellorship and the lord lieu
tenancy are quite unjustifiable on
grounds Of logic or policy.

E. A. Brown, who has a big irri-

Columbia, is in the city this morn
ing and reports that party of North
Coast surveyors have been working
between Beverly and Trinidad for the
past four months. The party is now
in charge of Engineer Hallenbeck
Surveys have been made on both
sides of the river and the work is
very careful. A party is now camp
ing about eight miles below Trinidad
and they are now waiting for Mr.
Brown to secure repairs to his launch
in order that the party might be
moved up the river.

is one of the mysteries of the railroad

far Strahorn has been able to keep

backing.
The road. however, is causing more
talk in the state than any other line.
That it is surveying up the river

ENGLAND WATTS N.
SUSPENSE

London, May 14.-England is in
surpense today, awaiting the report
of the subcommittee of the British
committee of imperial defense upon
the charges of inefficiency brought
against the navy by Admiral Lord
Charles Beresford. While it is said
is that the findings of the sub-com-
mittee in the main will refute the
charges brought by Admiral Beres-
ford, there is known to be differ
ence of opinion among the committee
men, and a minority report by the
dissenters would occasion no surprise
Navy Wholly Unit.
The Investigations are the result of
criticisms laid before the cabinet by
Admiral Beresford at the time of his
enforced surrender of the channel
squadron, few weeks ago. Beres-
ford contended that the navy is Who'll
ly unfit for war service and that the
disciplinary measures recently enacted
by the board admiralty were actuated
by party motives
Premier Asquith is acting as chair
man of the investigating committee
The admiralty board, itself under in
vestigation, of course. is not repre-
sented on the committee. The body
is composed of non-partizen members
and as consequence, it will be i'm
possible for its report to be colored
by party loyalty.
Political Life Ended.
The findings of the committee
probably will bring to an end the
long controversy between the admir-
atty board, headed by First Lord of
the Admiralty Sir John Fisher and
Admiral Beresford A denial of
Beresford's charges will end the po-
litical career he has mapped out for
his declining years. His official life
is ended already by the order which
dCpiiNCu hiAII vi Tic vi tuC
channel squadron.
Should the charges be substantial
ed, the board will be placed in a
light of permitting the deterioration
of the navy, and the resignation of its
members logically will follow. Such
finding undoubtedly would be dis
astrous to the hopes of the liberal
party in the coming elections.
The sea lords will make no COM
ment other than they are glad the
investigation has been ordered. Beres-
ford's attitude is epitomized in his
declaration: eff the country knew
what 1 know, there would be a
panic"
