show an increase. The rivers anu

high.
Opponents of the naval bill were
loud in their declarations today that
they would not allow the measure TO
pass unless it was materially reduced
and the 1.-TWO battlrship members" of
the naval committee decided that IN
the present temper of the house it
would be unwise to subject the bill To
the proba bility OF a ti!ibuster on the
floor. They withheld Il report on the
bill. hoping to reach some sort of AN
agreement.
To add to the troubled situation the

about $25.O00.oo0 will be brought in.
