going to be taken down at the
little wooden depot of the TIA.

roads, and the pictures will show
Tacoma's depot as a shack.
Ask to Change Plan.
Instead of advertising Taco.
ma, 1t will make joke OF us.
Let's ask them to take the pic
lures at the Union depot
Seattle would be mighty glad
to have US take the pictures at
the wooden Milwaukee depot"
remarked Mills. 1T would GER
tainly give Tacoma a black eye
to have such a depot labeled as
Tacoma's roadway terminal"
IN would be shameful to have
such a picture" said Mayor Faw-
cett. Lets do everything we
cant to prevent the films being
made there tomorrow"
Z COMMISSIONS Mills, who Is a
member of the Commercial club,
was authorized by the council to
visit the publicity committee this
afternoon and protest long and
loudly against the film.
Martins Explanation.
II II. Martin, secretary of the
club, when informed of the ac-

bring about the change.
THE picture is being taken at
the Milwaukee's expense" said
he, ssand we could not very grace
fully suggest the filming OF

picture.
However. the mountain trip
will be preceded in the film by a
run of about 20 minutes OF ex-

These will impress the observers
with the high class Of our build
ings and furnish an excellent adj
yertlsement for the city"

FLEET SUBMARINES
Of HIGHEST GRADE
Bids to Be Invited for New
Craft, Which Will Surpass
World Record.

The two new fleet submarines, bids
Tor which soon will be invited by the
Navy Department, will exceed the
Schley. the worlds biggest underwater
craft so far as is known, by 300 tons
displacement. They will be 1.3OO-ton
craft on the surface, as against the
Scnley's 1000 tons, and exceed by 200
tons the biggest of the cruiser de-
stroyers of the navy.
congress gave navy designers a hard
task when it said that these two new
feet submarines should have a surface
speed OF twenty-five knots an hour eff
possible" The Schley will be a twenty
knot boat when completed, and will
have more than 1000 horsepower fur
nished by heavy oil engines Expert
ments in the navy model basin with
models of the new craft show that
they will require between 5000 and
10000 horsepower to make the addi-
tional five knots. =.
Steam Turbines for Surface Work.
No internal combustion engines to go
in the space available and furnish the
power required could be found for the
boats and the specifica tions to be adj
vertised will propose vessels fitted with
steam turbines for surface work, al
though the same storage battery and
electric motor installation as in small
er craft will be used below the surface
Navy experts have worked out a prac-
tical solution to the mechanical OBJ
stacles in the way of using steam and
have no doubt of it's success. The
boilers will be fired with oil fuel.
A novel arrangement has been de-
veloped for ordinary surface cruising.
whereby one of the twin turbines Will
do all Of the work, the second shaft
being operated by electricity. When
high speed is required both turbines
will be used.
The boats will be fitted with motor
generators, operating on pinion gears
of the turbines. When the turbines
will do all of the work they will gen
crate electricity for the storage bat
teries; beneath the surface, electricity
will flow back from the batteries to
the generators, which then become
motors to drive the propeller shafts.
Popularity of Construction.
The popularity of the construction,
however, lies in the fact that when the
boat is cruising, one turbine will drive
one propeller shaft and also it's own
generator. Current from the generator
will pass directly to it's fellow on the
other shaft, converting the second gen.
orator into a motor. which will in
turn drive thS second shaft. In that
way. the full efficiency is obtained
from the single turbine and economy
of fuel consumption secured.
The boats will mount disappearing
guns for surface action, the new 4-inch
weapon of that type probably being
substituted for the 3-inch gun on
smaller submersihles. They probably
will carry two guns each and the gun
carriages have been SO designed as to
permit the guns to be aimed straight
up in the air as q defense against air
craft.

United States Not to Discrim-

Nations.
TO INSIST ON RIGHTS

No Recognition of Efforts to Change
International Law Dur
ing War.

Non-interference with United States
commerce on the high seas will be de-
manded of Germany and Austria, as
well as Great Britain and her allies..in
notes to be dispatched soon on the sub
ject of contraband.
The United States will protest vigor-
ously against the action of the Euro
pean belligerents in declaring virtually
all commerce contraband. 1t will be
largely perfunctory so far as Germany
and Austria are concerned, however. as
those nations are not now in a position
TO interfere seriously with American
shipping.
Note Nearing Completion.
The note is nearly completed, but will
not be dispatched until it has been
carefully revised by Secretary Lansing
and President Wilson. 1t will chai-
lenge the right of belligereHt to eX-
tend the list of absolute contraband be-
yond the limits recognized by interna-
tional law before the war. 1t will also
sustain the declaration of London.
That declaration of contraband should
be limited to articles not merely avail
able for military use, but designed
chiefly for that purpose. Will be one OF
the principal contentious.
To Reassert Neutral Rights.
This will involve a reassertion of the
right of a neutral state, such as the
United States to ship such things as
food supplies. cotton and copper to the
civilian population of a belligerent
country under reasonable assurance
that the goods will rot be commander
ed for military uses.
Particular objection will be made, 1t
is understood. to the seizure OF Ameri-
can goods even though contraband, il
they are destined for consumption in
neutral country and are not bound for
a belligerent Fort.

smiled as he thought of future use of the
cloture rule which is proposed now by
the democrats,
"The democrats themselves know this,
and if they were left to vote as they really
desired. the supporters of cloture could
not get a majority" said Senator Smoot.
But they are going to vote as they are
told to vote, and some way they are going
to get a cloture rule through"
Republicans to Oppose.
The republicans of course, he said
would oppose the adoption of such a
rule strenuously. Senator Smoot him
self took a leading part in the repub-
lican filibuster which defeated the ad
ministration ship purchase bill at the
last session of Congress. He talked
steadily all one night and then some in
the Wnlle lAe
racked their brains for some expedient
by which he could be cut off.
Senator Smoot said that the Senate
was a continuing body, no matter what
some of the democrats supporting clo-
ture might say, and that talk of the
adoption of the rules at the beginning
of each Congress was idle. He said,
however that he thought the demo-
Gratis would manage to get cloture
rule through some how"
Troubles of Democrats.
The principal struggles of the demo-
Gratis, he said, at the coming session
would not be putting through a pro-
gram for greater preparedness, but
would come over. legislation to raise
money enough not only to pay for this
increased preparedness, but also for the
regular running expenses of the gov
ernment.
"They will have to issue bonds" said
Senator Smoot. THE democratic party
never was efficient. 1t has not paid
as it went. s3 the republican party
always did, even to paying for the
Panama canci. Whenever the demo-
Gratis have been in power they have
Senator Smoot said that the people
of Utah were strong for adequate ma
