CRY Of ECONOMY
IS bOTRERSOME

Washington, Feb. 12.-I1conomy diff
ficulties among the house democrats
today reached the leaders of the demo-
cratic side and efforts W0r0 made to
reconcile the factions which threaten
to p~recipitate a struggle OVc the naval
appropriation bin with its tWo battle
ships provision when it appears IN the
floor.
Speaker Champ Clark, Majority
Leader Underwood n Representative
Fitzgerald, chairman Of the appropriate
tons committee, conferred uVer the ap-
preparation situation, and Mr.. Fitz-
gerald told the leaders in no uncertain
terms that the appropriations were
mounting to a much larger figure than
had been expected. He recommended
vigorous cuts in the bills yet to be
passed.
After the conference, Mr.. Underwood
talked over the situation with mem
bers of the ways and means commit
tee.
Last nights meeting of the economy
advocates had taken up n resolution
asking the ways and means committee
" hiHS'liiit ''' y IIlPii ''Illl'lt-
tee for increasing the navy bill. The
bill, as framed by the committee, would
carry about $14G,O00,0 900, and the econ
omy advocates insist that it should be
cut about $40, 900, 900. Mr.. Underwood
called on Representative padgett of
Tennessee, chairman of the naval af-
fairs committee. and urged him to en-
dcavor to cut down the bill.
Mr.. Padgett called the democrats of
his committee together, but they were
unable to agree upon any reduction.
and the matter was put over until to-
morrow.
The economy advocates, who are
about so strong in the house, declare
that by ~filibuster they can prevent tho
passage of the bill this session unless
the amount carried is materially re-
duced. They will hold another meet
ing tomorrow night. and unless some
thing is done in the way OF reducing
the bill in the meantime, a resolution
by Representative Sisson of Missis-
sippi viii be taken up, which would re-
quest the ways and means committee

AS ENGLAND VIEWS
MEXICO

London. Feb. 13.-Several of the
London morning newspapers printed
editorial comments on the Mexican
trouble. They generally recognize JUS
tification for American intervention.
The Daily Mail says american in
terests involved are very great. If the
Mexicans are wise they will settle their
differences as speedily as possible"
The Standard says: Nobody SER
iously would object if the Washington
state department carried it's activity
still further. With the completion of
the Panama canal, American interests
in the security and stability of the
Central American states will grow too
strong to be denied, and Mexico must
get her affairs in proper order or ac-
cept the jealous supervision Of her
great neighbour"
"American intervention is unavoid-
able declares the Daily Graphic,
which adds:
This may modify profoundly the po-
litical geography of North America"

"THE CONFESSION

The Confession James Halleck
Reds play, deserved a much larger
audience in Missoula than that which
greeted it at the Harnois last night. It
is a gripping play from beginning to
end and it was c~reditably enacted
here.
The Confession is in four acts. 1t
tells a story of the life of a family
brought up by a devout Catholic
mother. One of her several sons at
tains the ministry and becomes a
priest. Another. filled with the blood
of life, is about to wed. when his
fiancee discovers he is fond of drink
and breaks the engagement. Tom
PUSHES away in a rage, and when a
murder is committed the guilty finger
is pointed at him. In the same hour
the murderer, a French Canadian,
comes and confesses to the priest. who
is the brother of the accused man.
Here the plot becomes intense. A
priest of the church is a brother to the
accused, but as father of the church
he must maintain silence insofar as
his p~riestly knowledge is concerned
and trust to Providence to free his
brother. One word from the priest
and the brother would go free, and
the guilty man would go to the gal
lows. But the priest allows his faith
in his religion to solve the situation.
which is g~rippingly one in the last
few minutes of the play.
Richard Sterling, as the priest, is a
most convincing character and main
tains all the dignity of his stage call
ing. lna other choractar l., +ha ,1o,,
stands out with a vividness that would
do credit to Theodore Roberts, if com
PARSONS were in order. That is Josef
Duniont. the guilty Frenchman, played
by George Manning.
There are but two women characters
in the play-Adlaid Goundrr as the
aging mother and Adlyn Bush as the
f~iancee-both well played.

STRIKE MAY COME
SUNDAY NIGHT
UNLESS SOMETHING HAPPENS
THE EASTERN FiREMEN
SOON WILL GO OUT.

New York, Feb. 12.-Reports that a
strike of the 5000 firemen of the "a

act on the part of Judge Martin A.

court, and H. w. Hangar, acting

1.-THE situation is hopeless" are
words attributed to William S. Car

Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen,
in comment on the failure of the days

"The managers won't bulge at all
he said.
In union circles it was said that a
strike order might be expected by
Friday night for the men to quit their
locomotives at midnight Sunday, thus
giving the railroads the customary 4S
hours notice. 1t was declared that
only some entirely unexpected cession
on the part of the railroads would
serve to alter the present program.
Union men said no progress was
made at all in today's conference with
the federal mediators in finding any
middle ground on which the differences
could be settled.

ordered it will involve a complete tie

Gently voted on the strike question,
only about 1000 were opposed to a
