DEM. SENA TORS
HOLD MEETING

WASHINGTON. April 5,--Whether
forty-o senators constituting the Dem
port a conservative or a progressive pol
icy du: ing the present session of con
Gress formed the subject OF an earnest
and animated conference participated in
today by about fifteen Democratic sem
atols. The meeting was held In the
committee rooms of Senator Stone OF
Missouri.
The gathering grew out of the visit
Of William j. Bryan and was due to
the prospect that Senator Martin of Nir-
gina would be elected chairman OF the
Democratic senatorial caucus
The Nebraska leader is understood to
have counseled his intimate senatorial
friends to select some other ors;E, senator
Mr. Bryan offered no personal objec-
ton 20 MIR Martin, but pleaded that the
party should take advantage OF It's PRES PRES
be done only through all aggressive pol
icy. 10 which, In MI. Bryan's opinion,
Mr. Martins membership would not be
conducive
AS many OF the Democratic senators
hal pledged their votes TO their Virginia
colleague the suggestion was embarrass,
ing, and conser ervative senators expressed
resentment at the interposttion. The
conference occupied four hours, Jhe
only definite conclusion reached was
that the Democratic senatorial caucus:
until Friday There will be no session
OF the senate Friday. thus anording
views.
The scope OF today's discussion eX-
panded from caucus leadership TO the
legislative programme. All the senators
present expressed themselves as favor
able to the course OF action formulated
by the house Democratic caucus last
Saturday.
This programme embraces the approval
of the constitutions adopted by New
Mexico and Arizona, inclucing the recall
provision of the latter. the acceptance
OF the Canadian reciprocity agreement:
the election OF senators by the people,
and the rcapporiionment OF the house
of represen tatiVes.
Some of the senators defended Mr.:
Martin as in no sense n reactonary' ana
declared he was entitled 10 support as
veteran Democrat and old-time SEN
ator. Others aligned with Mr.. Bryan in
a plea for a ooid front under aggressive
leadership,
They argued that the public would not
be slow to infer that the Democrats i'll
the senate were committed 10 n course
OF inactivity il they should fail to put
forward the right man as the result OF
the party's first official act in the Sixty
second congress.
Among the senators present We're

Secretaries Knox and Meyer Com
ply With Resolution Adopted
by the Senate.
FOLLOW LEAD OF EUROPE
Argentina Battleship Being Built
by Private Parties From Gov
ernment Plans.
FOLLOW LEAD OF EUROPE

WASHINGTON. April 5.-1n compl-
ance with a resolution adopted by the
senate last session calling for nforma
ton concerning the part played by the
stale and navy departments in obtaining
from the Argentine republic contracts for
the building OF two battleships In private
American yards, replies were sent to the
senate today by Secretary Knox and Sec
retary Meyer.
Both of these cabinet officers defended
their course in permitting the use In the
foreign ships OF confidential plans OF the
dreadnaught type of vessels now being
built for this government and secret de-
vices embraced in armament, The re-
sponsibilty OF justifying the action o!
this government chiefly fell TO the secre-
tary OF the navy. but Secretary of State
Knox in his answer said the action OF
with the policy of the act OF 1909 under
which the department OF state was reor-
ganized and the purpose of which was the
extension OF American trade relations.
The two Argentina battleships which
are being built at private ship yards here
are partly from plans which this govern
mehl has adopted for the construction OF
the new battlcships New York and Texas
for which appropria lions were made only
last session,
For the information furnished the
United States reserved the right to pur-
chase the two vessels from Argentina in
case they were to be sold at any time
Furthermore Argentina was to consider
the plans confidential
1T was apparent, said Secretary
Meyer that II the American competitors
in the shipbuildng trade were 10 offer
bids upon Il footing Of equality with thei.
foreign rivals 1t was essential that they
receive from their government the same
assistance and support as that which the
great ordnance manufacturers OF Europe
obtain from their governments.
