FIERCE STORM ON
ENGLISH COAST
British Cruiser Venus One
of Vessels Ashore.
NUMBER OF LIVES LOST

Wrecked Norwegian Steamer and
the Fate of Those Aboard Other
Craft in Peril 10 Not Known.
London, Dec -Four ships, one of
them the British cruiser Venus, have
gone ashore in fierce storm that has
been sweeping over England. The
number of lives lost is uncertain.
The cruiser was headed for port
in the south of England when the
storm broke. It ran ashore with full
force and the foremast and portion
of the bridge were carried away by an
enormous sea.
The Norwegian steamer Waterloo,
of 1888 tons, foundered off The Lizard
at midnight. Only three persons were
saved. The remainder of the crew is
missing.
The Booth Steamship company's
liner Antony, bound from Liverpool
for Para, has been disabled and is in
distress fifty miles north of The
Lizard. The captain of a local steam
er received the signal, Want imme-
date assistance" but was unable to
help the Antony, his own vessel being
short of COAL The Antony is of $3.50
tons register.
Another victim of the gale, which
still is raging along the coast, is an
unidentified steamer ashore near Mer-
sey. Three lifeboats have gone to her
assistance.

The. Armament Question.

The Armament Question.
One of the, hottest fights expected
on the appropriation bills is that on
the armament question. The Euro
pean war has, in their own minds,
strengthened the ornaments of both
the little navy men and the big navy
men. The big navy men declare that
the suddenness of this war proves
emphaticallyf the necessity of being
prepared. The little navy men point
to the destruction of battleships and
submarines, and say: '"Why build
battleships until we find out if there
is any way Ito protect a battleship
from submarines-all ships con-
structed along present lines may be
made obsolete any day by some de-
velopment in this war"
Over in the senate the problem is
much more difficult, owing to the fact
that there is no way of putting an
end to the debates on any question
so long as any senator wants to dis
cuss it. Possibilities in this direc-
ton are still fresh in the minds of
senators from the successful filibus-
ter of Senator Burton last session
against the rivers and harbors bill.
Up to the Senate.
Besides the conservation measures
already mentioned which have been
passed by the house and are await
ing action by tn senate, there are a
number of other important bills
which have been acted upon by the
house but which have not passed the
senate. Among these the one which
is probably the most important is the
immigration bill. The point of diff
ficulty about this bill is the literacy
test, which the president is said to
be opposed to, while there is wide
difference Of opinion in the senate.
Senator O'Gorman, who has been off
the administration reservation con-
siderably recently, is leading the
fight against the literacy test, for
once with the president
