STEEL TRUST HIT BY NAVAL BILL
 PASSED IN HOUSE
fspecial from Jnited Press. l,

Especial from United Press1
 Wash ngton Feb. 22-Carrying a provision preventing the buying of arrnor or armament from the steel trust, the badly battered naval appro- priation bill was passed by the House, today.
 Two batt1eships. in continuation of the existing program, and sweeping provisions in favor of union 1abor's e ght hour day. were included in the bill by amendments despite the at tempt of the naval affairs committee to eliminate the eight hour law provi sion as applied to ships authorized last year.
 Amendments offered by Stanley Dem, Ky.,) who has been demanding an investigation of the steel trust for years, were adopted by a blanket vote. They provided n sweeping manner no armor for structural steel or ma- chinery shall be bought from any corporations that have entered any agreement conspiracy or combination to deprive the government of a fair competition in bids.'
 Another provision prevents the gov ernment paying more than 100 per- cent over the cost of manufacture for arrnor. At the end of the bill, Stanley tackled on blanket provision that no steel of any descr' ption be bought from any combination that monopo- lizes commerce in any article.
 An attempt was made. today, by Representative Padgett, (Dem., Tenn.). to have the two battleship provision stricken from the bill and one bat tleship clause inserted. By a vote of 13p-167 the House voted the Padgett amendment down.

LONDON MONEY
 FOR LANGFORD
 'ikCIN" JOHNSON

London, Feb. 22.--Sam Lanyford is the pugilis tic wonder of London, to- day, and nothing will satisfy the sports but to see him clash with Jack Johnson for the worlds title.
 The ease with which the Boston negro, weighing 16s pounds, whipped Bill Lang, who weighed close to 220 pounds last night, surprised every body. So decisive was Langford's vic- tory that there is general regret that Lang's disqualtfying foul in the sixth round robbed the negro of the knock out which seemed inevitable.
 Should Promoter Mcintosh succeed in matching Langford and Johnson for Coronation Week, Langford will not lack for backing. Most of those who SAW him literally sweep Lang of the boards believe him the greatest scrapper in the world.
 Iangford was about town, today with not a mark of the fight showing He. says he will stay in training until the result of McIntosh's negotiations with Johnson is definitely known.
