MANN DECIDES POINT OF ORDER.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May "a
The Senate Monday passed naval ap-
preparation bill authorizing two new bat
tleships of the dreadnaught type by a
vote of &c to 80, defeating an amend
ment offered by Mr.. Burton to authorize
only one battleship. The bill carries an
appropriation of $134, 100000.
The naval increase for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1911, provided by the
bill, is as follows:
Two first class battleships to cost not ex-
eeeding $6,000000 each, and when equipped
with armor and armament about $12,5OO,0OO
each.
Two fleet GOLFERS to cost not exceeding
81 900 600 each.
Five submarine torpedo boats, NOT eA-
ceeding a total Of $2,500,O00.
Six torpedo boat destroyers to cost not e&-
ceeding $4,000 each.
The House bill provided for only four
submarines and no torpedo boat destroy
ers.
Tariff Board Knocked.
After an extended debate the proposed
$25OOO0 appropriation to detray the eX-
penses of the tariff board, recommended
by the President, was stricken from the
sundry civil appropriation bill IN the
House This action resulted from
decision by Representative Mann of ILL.,
nois, who was in the chair, sustaining
point of order made by Mr.. Fitzgerald
of New York, who contended that there
was no law authorizing such an appro-
priation.
In order to meet the objection to the
tariff board on the part of many Demo
Gratis and some Republicans, Mr.. Taw-
ney proposed another amendment which
appropriated $25O,OOO practically for the
same purpose, with the added provision
that it was ''to enable the President to
give to Congress information of the
states of the Union and recommend to
their consideration such measures as he
shall judge necessary and expedient,'

THE carpenters strike in washington

ing it, the leaders are not only prevent
iEE capable and honest wOrkmen from

This utterance was made today by
James /. Parsons, president of the

Of the Brotherhood Of Carpenters and
JOineTs.
Nj Crosby had come to Mr.. Parsons
as a last resort Of bringing about a
satisfactory settlement between the en-

tiers Mr.. Crosby and several other
members OF the brotherhood appeared
before a special meeting last night OF
the Builders League. and failed to re-
ceive the promise Of a conference 10

Mr.. Parsons criticised the leader Of
the carpenters for not explaining 20 his
followers that the building conditions do
not warrant at this time the advance in
wages asked for. and that the calling
Of a strike was mistake
Although President Crosby admitted
that the strike instead OF gaining was
losing ground every day, and that the
prospects Of bringing the builders 20

not say whether or not he would carry

LEAGUE
REFLECTS BAN
JOHNSON
Is Chosen, President,
Secretary and Treasurer Too.
at Annual Salary Of Twenty
five Thousand Dollar,


-
Chicago, Feb. 1G.-Byron Bancroft
secretary and treasurer of the Amer
lean league ut a salary said TO be
$25, 600 a year, at the closing session
of the annual schedule meeting to-
day.
The agreement under which the
league has existed since November
1900, was renewed for twenty years.
In the new agreement is a clause for
bidding any club owner or holder OF
stock in any club to hold shares in
any other club in the league except as
an emergency measure" Johnson's
term OF office will expire with the
agreement. All other articles of the
old agreement were retained in the
new one.
Uniform tickets with rain checks
coupons, practically the same as now
IN use in the National league, We're
adopted.
This schedule was the only one sub
mitted to the meeting H. was chosen
without change. 1t was announced
the dates selected would be retained
whether the National league plays I54
or 16S games.
If the National league selects the
shorter season there win be only ten
conflicting dates between the two
lagues. Eight Of these viii be in
Chicago and the two others in ST
Louis.
While the official announcement was
made that Mr.. Johnson's salary had
been increased from $4,000 to S23,-
900, it was said on good authority that
such was the case. Mr.. Johnson re-
fused to talk Of the reported increase,
but smilingly said it was q personal
matter.
He also returned the same answer
to the question as TO how old he would
be when his term of office will eX-
pire.
This is the longest tenure Of office
TO which any baseball president was
elected. It is said that Charles Com
iskey of Chicago and Benjamin Shive
Of Philadelphia We're the men behind
this signal tribute to Mr.. Johnson as
a league leader.
The adoption Of a twenty year
agreement was said to be i'm the nature
of a compromise. Some Of the club
owners favored the renewal for ten
years while others spoke Tor "A per-
petual agreement such as now exists
in the National league. This was the
main subject of debate in Yesterdays
meeting and the voting on It was
postponed until today. The article
added to the agreemtnt forbidding

New York, Feb. i6.-The National
league magnates are still deadlocked
on their schedule.
AS Yesterday. they convened ut >
o'clock this afternoon and remained
I'M session until tonight unable TO de-
eide on either the les or 154-game
proposals.
Accordingly. at the night session it
was decided to urn To a decision of
the rules and to resume the schedule
debate at . y. m. tomorrow
A ballot on the schedule was taken
when the afternoon meeting was FIRST
called TO order. This showed that the
situation was the same as YESTERDAY,
that Dreyfus of Pittsburg, Hermann
Of Cincinnati and Dovey of Boston
favored the short schedule or lb4
games. The five others voted for the
long schedule. The rules of II eague
require six votes to adopt any sched-
ule.
When today's session began, I'D
belts of brooklyn said.
'Dreyfus and Hermann want q
short schedule because they think
they have a chance to win the PEN
nant. If they thought they dldn
have a chance they would be Tor the

early part OF october.
This was practically decided upon
at today's meeting but the schedule
committee was unable to adjust cor-
tain dates TO the satisfaction of all
the club owners.
The general outline Of the draft
submitted by the committee proved
satisfactory and the sunday dates
We're said to be the rock on which the
split came.
The isolated geographical location
of Denver caused the schedule COM
mittee trouble In the apportionment Of
the Sundays at shome. The committee
again went into session and il is ex-
pected that all the Objectionable feat
ures viii be eliminated BY tomorrow.
