OUT TO REDUCE
BRITISH NAVY
Reduction Of Armaments Openly
Advocated Warning Comes
from France.
LRv cable 70 The Tribune !

London. Jan. 3.-The agitation within
the Liberal party against the growing
expenditure on ornaments is rapidly
gaining momentum, and seems likely
row 70 lead to a revival perhaps under
another name. Of the reduction of ar
maments committee. preliminary steps
in this direction have already been
taken, and one hundred Liberal mem
bers have declared themselves in sup
port of the movement
In some respects the situation recalls
that Of five years ago, when the reduc-
ton Of ornaments committee, which
numbered IA Liberal members, made
a determined assault on the navy esti-
mates of 1909 The firm stand by the
Prime Minister in the debate in the
House discouraged the agitation, which
then rapidly declined. but II is now
being revived with all its old vigor. the
definite acquisition of Mr.. Lloyd George
TO the ranks Of the little navy" men
having given the latter new heart.

PREDICTS INTERVENTION
THE Spectator" Of London
Saws It Will Soon Come.

London. Jan. THE Spectator de-
clares to-day that the pressure OF public
opinion in all the rest OF the world soon
will force the United States 10 intervene
\n Mexico The article declares that
President Wilson made mistake in not
assuming that President Huerta would
he the strongest force with which 70
bring about peace In Mexico and sup
porting him accordingly: but it adds that
II understands perfectly the reasons wnv
Mr. Wilson did not adopt such a cynical
course.
Instead the article says" he did
what. with all respect. We must say was
the worst thing he could have done. re
interviewed and pretended not TO be inter
veninc ne deprecated bloodshed and
anarchy. and vet he would neither stop
il himself nor let any ono else do so. The
only way left for the United States Is for
themselves TO restore order in Mexico.
The Spectator" declares that joint ac-
ton by other powers with the United
states I'm Mexico is impossible. and that
tine United States will have to act alone
or sacrifice the Monroe Doctrine, which II
is not likely to do The article says that
IL would prove rather an easy conquest
for the United States. but that conquest
would be succeeded by demand for
national independence and accompanied
by rebellion. The rebellion also would be
suppressed. but IL would be followed by
annexation 20 the United States Of the
northern states OF Mexico aud the indie
pcndence Of the rest OF the country under
treaty by which the Washington gov
eminent would control MeXico's foreign
relations
The Spectator" thinks even this con-
diton would not last long, and predicts
that within nifty years one nation OF
2O0.O0O0O English speaking people will ex-
tend from the Canadian border TO the
Panama Canal, with the exception OF
British Honduras.

CHURCH SCHISM MENACED
Archbishop Expedites Return
Home of Bishop of Zanzibar.
fBv cable TO The Tribune. !

London. Jan. 3.-There is no diminu-
ton i'm the vigor Of the controversy
which has divided a great body ~
churchmen and which threatens a seri-
Gus schism in the Church of England.
The administration of Holy Communion
by the Anglican bishops of Uganda and
Monbasa 10 missionaries OF various
Christian scots at Kikuyu in the East
African protectorate is the centre OF
the storm. the real question at stake
being whether the reformed Church OF
England. as body with Episcopal gov
ernment. can i'm any circumstances OIL
ciaIlv cooperate with other reformed
Christian communities which accept the
bible and the Apostolic and Nicene
creeds. but which reject Episcopacy as
a form Of church government.
The principal contribution to the dis
cussion to-day is a letter from the
Archbishop OF Canterbury. Ian Mac
Donald. NJ. F., wrote to the Primate
begging him to make public his inten-
ton as to the nature OF the court to
which the matters raised by the Bishop
Of Zanzibar will be submitted. In re-
ply, the Archbishop points out that ne
has attempted to expedite the Bishops
return to England, but that at the
present time he is without any specific
information as to the exact request
which may be placed before him. The
Archbishop adds:
ct would cause me genuine satisfac-
ton were the controversialists to see
their way ere long to lay down their
mems and await such formal action as
I must myself take for dealing prop
erly with what is referred to me. I re-
frain absolutely from expressing my
opinion beforehand upon the subjects
at issue. 1t is my duty as we'll as my
wish to secure that at the proper time
the Bishop Of Zanzibar should have
ample opportunity of laying his case
before the proper ecclesiastical au-
thority."

Sit with Mayor.

Henry Bruere, the new City Chamber
lain. who is to be the risht hand man OF
Mayor Mitchell. rode down TO the Clty
Hall with the latter Yesterday morning.
The Mayor slapped him on the back as
they parted and the City Chamberlain pro-
ceeded downtown to arrange for his bond.
The bond. for 100000. was made out by
four surety companies. It was filed with
the Controller at o'clock i'm the after
noon and was approved an hour later

a great deal of experience in the Finance
Department I'm connection with my work
in the Bureau of Municipal Research, but
I do not know much about this job"
In spite of the modesty of Mr.. Bruere
il is known that the Mayor expects to
get much advice from him i'm the reor-
ganizdtion of the various departments.
However. it was thought there would be

GERMAN CHURCH PROBLEM
Pressure Applied to Keep Mem
bers Within the Fold.

Berlin, Jan 2.-The newspapers here
say that the judge of municipal court
has refused to administer the oath 10
witnesses i'm a court proceeding because
they we're not members OF the church.
The Judge said he doubted the validity
of an oath administered 10 such persons.
The incident is considered important
because of the general movement
throughout the country OF members 10
withdraw from the state church in order
70 escape payment Of compulsory church
taxes. The Withdrawals reached suVh
proportions last week that scores Oh eN-
ira officials were on duty resistef'hs

Mayor Confers with New Head OF
Observation-Disclosures Aids
Retained.

From outward appearances the FolicC
DEPARTMENT under the new administra-
ton Is going to worry along much as VI
has In the past. That IS. the newly ap-
polnted Commissioner, Douglas ]. Mckay
has reinstated his deputies ana depart
ment heads and their secretaries. I'm other
v or,is. al the men that Commissioner
Waldo retired to districts have oeeh
brought back to their former places.
Yesterday Mr.. Mckay called on Mayor
Mitchell and conferred with him. IL was
decided that. for the time being, the depu'
ties and department heads would DC
brought back 10 the positions the FORMER
Commissioner removed them from just
before he left his job. And so Comms-
sioner Mckay issued such orders.
The position of First Deputy rommis-
siouer IS vacant, because the former hold-
or Of that Office Mr.. Mckay, is now the
Commissioned. The office Of the fourtn
DEPUTY Commissioner IS vacant because
Waldo made Of Mr.. Dillon an Inspector.
II is understood that the present deputies
are serving only temporarily.
The first official act Of Mr.. Mckay was
To transfer back Patrolman John craze
mer TO the Office Of Inspector Schmittber-
ger Waldo had transferred the man to
a station house.
There isn't much that can be told OF the
expectations of the department under It's
new head. as all Of the department ON
cials appear TO adhere to the ultlmdtum
Of Mayor Mitchell when he said: Deeds
not words" But the young Commission
err entered into his new work with Nlgor
and enthusiasm. All day he sat behind
the big redwood department desk ana
talked with all the various department
heads. inspectors. captains, lieutchants
and other callers. He started early ana
stayed late.
The situation was much the same in the
office of Second Deputy Commissioner
Dougherty. Dozens and dozens Of detec-
tives and officials tramped through his
office to shake hands with him. Ana
them also, ne was particularly busy with
routine work lie said that he would CO.
operate heartily with the new Commls-
sioner
Commissioner Newburger. in answer 10
all questions. said that he had nothing
to say
II seems to be well understood that
Commissioner Mckay will also carry on
his former dutes-those Of First Deputy
Commissioner.
The first official Police Headquarters
order issued by Commissioner Mckay was
that Of the formal reappointment oil the
two deputy commissioners.

There have been repeated rumors of
friction between Sir Christopher Cradock
and Rear Admiral Fletcher. At the Navy
Department to-day there was reticence on
the subject. II appears however. that
the question of which officer should take
precedence did arise. but was never def
nitely settled. one reason being that occa-
sion for joint action has never arisen.
il II had come up at Tampico during the
fighting there recently, II is probable
there would have been tilt between the
two officers az il is not believed that Rear
Admiral Fletcher would grant any British
