OLD NAVAL RELIC

Washington, July 6.-The frigate
Constellation. Truxton's gallant old
ship which cleaned the Atlantic of
French privateers and struck the coll
ors Of many a hostile craft in the war
of 1912. lies off Newport. r. l.. with
its bottom in state of decay. Many
patriotic societies are pressing the
navy department to see to it that she
is preserved.
While there is strong sentimen,
in the navy for the preservation of the
famous old ships which first won re-
spect for the flag on the high seas
and laid the traditions which have
been perpetuated by the fleets Of IRON
clads. congress has heretofore been
reluctant to appropriate for it.
The famous Constitution-"Old
1ronsides" to loving nation-was
saved from an ignominious end only
after the genius of Oliver Wendell
Holmes had immortalzed her name
in verse that stirred the land. She
now swings in the tides of Boston
harbor doing a training ships duty
The Constellation, too. is being used
as training ship. but she soon will
be taken out of commission and
brought to Annapolis. The navy de-
partment has no money to rebuild
her old hulk and unless patriotic
public sentiment demands her preser-
walton. the once magnificent old fri
gate will become a rotting wreck Of

Naval BILL IS
THROUGH SENATE
Senator Gronna Was One of
Three Republicans Who
Voted For it.

Washington. July 6.--The naval ap-
preparation bill, carrying s133,609. GA
and two battleship provisions was
passed by the senate today. 1t now
goes to conference with the house to
thresh out the naval increase pro-
gram and other senate amendments.
1t threaded lively course in the
senate. Senator Johnston of Ala
bama proposed sub provision for
one battleship and gave notice he
would propose, when the Panama
canal administration is considered. to
deny the use of the canal to all ma
tions which do not agree to build only
one battleship a year. He said the
United States should end the wasteful
battleship competition with Europe
by entering into treaties with them
to cease building such vessels.
The Johnston one battleship pro-
vision was rejected IL to 43. Sena-
tors Bacon. Fletcher. Johnston. Kern,
Pomerene. Smith Of Arizona, Tillman
and Williams (democrats) and Bris-
tow. Burton. Clapp and Gronna (re-
publicans) voted for it.
An amendment was adopted to
make the recently enacted s-hour law
applicable to work on new ships,
which Senators Gallinger and Hey-
burn contended would increase the
government expense by 100000 or
$5,000.00O. A committee amendment
to provide for creation of a national
council for defense was defeated on a
point of order made by Senator Over
man of North Carolina (democrat)
who did not withdraw his point not
withstanding whispered suggestion
that the plan was endorsed by the
new democratic platform. Senator
Bacon of Georgia (democrat) in the
chair. sustained the point of order.
The senate rejected the amendment
that proposed reviving the grades of
admiral and vice admiral.

Boston. July 6.-The fact that a
pearl necklace valued at 100000 was
lost last Tuesday night on the steamer
Bunker Hill by Miss Attila Thayer OF
New York. became known today wher
the police were notified.
Miss Thayer is Of the opinion that
when she boarded the steamer in New
York the necklace was in a jewelry
case with other gems. Just before
she came ashore here on wednesda Y
she discovered that the pearls were
missing She could not account eor
the disappearance Of the necklace but
thought possibly 1t had been thrown
away with some waste paper. St. !,
went to her summer home in New
Hampshire without making a com
plete investigation.
Today a Boston business man. rep
reserting Miss Thayer visited the
steamer and inquired whether any
trace of the Jewels had been found.
He was told that no one on board
the Bunker Hill knew anything about
them.

DEMOCRATS !! AND
INSURGENTS. i BREAK
No More Working Agree
ment Between Two Polit-
ical Elements in Senate.

Washington, July 6.-The working
agreemet between the democratic and
insurgent republican senators is at an
end. 1t has been abrogated as the
result of conferences ever since the
metal bill was passed in the senate
by the democrats in the absence of the
regular republicans and without the
aid Of the insurgents.
The probable result will be that
the house sugar and wool and excise
bills will be presented to the senate
and voted down by a strict party
vote. All the republicans are expect
ed to. vote against them, and it is
probable that some of the democrats
will join them in opposition to the
house sugar bill. which would admit
sugar free of duty.
Following the passage of the metal
bill the democrats appointed a. COM
mittee to confer with the insurgent
republicans regarding future cooper
alton. Finally the democrats of the
committee were notified that they
could expect no further cooperation
because of the impossibility of getting
consideration of the insurgent meas
ures. This condition was produced by
the decision of the regular republicans
sufficient numbers to allow the dem
ocrats to get their own bills through
without the aid of the insurgents.
This program made 1t impossible for
the insurgents to get even a vote or
their measures and they decided not
to play" any longer. In view Of this
position Of their tariff allies, the DEM
ocrats have about made up their
minds that nothing Is to be gained
by further concessions
In this emergency the democratic
leaders Of the house are urging that
the best party course is to accept
house measures and stand or fall by
them.
The subject was considered by the
democratic senators much of the time
today and the conferences extended
into the evening
