DEMOCRATS DECIDE
TO ALLOW ONE
BATTLESH|P
MOST FORMIDABLE FIGHTING
CRAFT EVER BUILT MAY
BE CONSTRUCTED.

Washington. Aug. 1i.-After n fight
extending over weeks, democrats of
the house agreed In caucus today to
recede from their mo battleship" pro-
gram In this session and to permit the
battleship champions to vote in the
house for one such vessel.
Unlike the four preceding caucuscs,
there was an absence OF bitterness and
by u rising vote Of 80 to II, the res
olution was put through.
il Is said the senate Will agree to
the one ,battleship plan. breaking the
deadlock over the naval bin.
There were present In the secret
meeting 126 members representing all
opinions on the subject OF appropria =
tons for naval expansion, and of
these 20 refrained from voting. While
the solid support of the majority will!
not be given to the battleship program,
the leaders are confident they will
have fan more than the necessary
strength when aligned with the re-
publican friends of the navy"
The recession from the former
caucus action was embodied In the
following resolutions:
Resolved, That the former action
OF the democratic caueuses In regard
10 battleships be, and Is hereby modi-
fled 50 as To permit any and all DEM
ocratic members who desire 80 TO do.
to vote In the house for one battIeship
only and to permit the democratic
members of the conference committee
on naval appropriation to agree To one
oattleship. No member is bound by
this resolution to vote for one battle
snip should he not desire to do So
Mr Sulzer of New York, who has
led tho fight for two battleships In
the pending bill, sought to have the
caucus take no action us to the num-
Der of ships, but to release members
to vote for one or two as they saw
fit. Chairman Padgett of the naval
affairs committee, opposed Mr. Sulzer's
resolution on the ground that II would
further complicate matters. The SEN
ate. he pointed out already had ex-
pressed its Willingness 10 compromise
the differences by withdrawing from
It's demand for two ships and to accede
to one MIR. Sulzer's resolution then
was lost.
An effort will be made to have the
warship to be authorized the most
formidable fighting craft ever laid
down. The vessel, II its sponsors win
then fight, would be equal In fight =
ing ability to any two battleships be-
how the Dreadnought size and far the
superior Of any of the latter class now
afloat. sharp fight Is expect ~
this program. however. both ON the
ground of extravagance and the con-
tenfion of many members OF the naval
affairs committees Of both houses that
such craft would be unwie.dy and
expensive to maintain.

LETTERS WILL PROVE II.
Money Alleged TO Have Been Gotten
From Great Railroad Man, Game
From the National Committee aud
Was Used TO osfray Expenses Of the
Campaign in New York.

Oyster Bay. Aug. 1.-THE testi
mony of ex-Governor Benjamin B
Odell today before the senate commit
tee which IL investigating campaign
funds, was contradicted tonight J.,
Colonel Roosevelt.
Il am not interested In Mr.. Odcll's
hearsay statements" Mr.. Roosevelt
exclaimed. He declared that any man
who attempted to refute the state
ments he had made In reply to the
allegation that he had requested T.. II.
Hartman to raise funds for the 1904
campaign branded himself as dishon-
est and untruthful.
Colonel Roosevelt mt first said no
honest man could question his actions
at this time after he had explained
them fully In the past and that he
would not enter into another discus
Sion OF the matter. He reconsidcred
his decision. however, and dictated
this statement
Il have not thing to add to what
was contained I'm IN. statement con-
tanning the letters published ut that
time. These letters speak for them
selves. Mr.. Sheldons testimony abso-
lutely bears them out. / never di-
rectly or indirectly asked Mr.. fiarri-
man for Il dollar to the national cam
paign fund.
"On the contrary. he asked me to
help him get for Odell and the state
campaign fund some large sums of
money from the national committee
nn hut
safe anyhow; that 1t was essential to
help Odell carry the state ticket. Let
me repeat that every fac: was set
forth in full and In detail by me six
years ago while Mr.. Hartman was
alive.
This statement was contained In
my letter written at the time To Mr..
Hartman and neither Mr.. Hartman
nor Mr. Odell ever attempted to an
swer this communication Of mine and
no human being can so much as at
tempt to refute any statement
therein made without branding him
self as dishonest and untruthful Mr..
Sheldon's statement which he of his
own accord volunteered to make, cor
roborated everything that said l
was glad to have ii published. but the
letters that l gave needed no cor
roboration."
Senator Dixon, George w. Perkins
of New York and Medill Mccormick
. OF Chicago spent several hours at
Sagamore Hill today. continuing the
conference which was begun yester-
day. No definite plans for the cam
paign had been decided upon, the SEN
ator said. .
A large part of the time was spent
In arranging Colonel Rooseyclt's tour
through the west and aouth, which
proved a difficult task on account of
the number Of states to be visited and
the comparatively short period in
which the trip must be made. Most
Of Colonel Roosevelt's speeches will
be made at state fairs or progressive
state conventions. The colonel hopes
to be back at Sycamore Hill IL week
or two before election to devote the
last part OF the campaign to New
York and neIghboring states. The
colonel said he would leave New Yorl
for Providence, II. l., at o'clock D. m
Friday, to make the opening speech o
his campaign.
