BRITISH BATTLESHIP SUNK
ENGLAND MOURNS LOSS OF LIVES
OF CREW MORE THAN SHIP,
WHICH WAS IS YEARS OLD.
Part of Crew Picked Up and Brouhat
Ashore. in Theatre
of War.

LOndon~The destruction of the
British battleship Formidable in the
British Channel by mine or sub
marine boat, although one of those
events Engiishmen now realize must
be expected so long as the British
Navy is comp elled to keep the seas,
has caused widespread grief.
This is due not so much to the loss
of the ship, which was Is years old
and cost about $5,00O,00O, as it is for
the men-about 600 in nnmber-who
went down with her. So far as known
only al of the Formidable's crew of
$50 were rescued. The British ad-
miralty has not given the locality
where the disaster occurred and de-
clares it is unable to say whether the
ship struck mine or was torpedoed
but as the British fleet again has been
active in Smelling German positions on
the Belgian coast and as German
submarines have been more. and more
using Zeebrugge as a base, the inclf-
nation here is to believe that a sub
marine again has been successful.
Fighting in Flanders and Northern
France has been confined largely to
artillery engagements, except Be
thune, where the Germans claim they
have taken a British trench They ad-
NIT, however, the loss of St. Georges,
near the Belgian coast, which the Ber-
lin official report says it was decided
not to attempt to retake owing to
high water.
In the Argonne region where the
battle has been almost continuous for
weeks past, the Germans have made
a little progress as an Offset to which,
however, the French declare they
have continued their advance in Upper
Alsace

FLOODS HAVE KEPT
TROOPS FROM FIGHT
HEAVIEST RAINS IN YEARS HAVE
CONVERTED TRENCHES IN
TO RIVERS.
FRENCH GAIN NEAR ROVE
stantinopIe Claims Successes
At Ardahan.

London.-The extremely rainy win
ter, the worst Ed ope has experienced
in years, has caused foods in the riv-
er valleys of the '>Continent which
have prevented ny<aperations on a
large scale on the western battle
front and seriously intertered with
those in the East. There have bee,
heavy artillery engagements from the
sea to the Swiss border and occasion
al attacks by the infantry of the op-
posing armies, which were not re-
pulsed, have added a few yards to the
territory in the possession of the at
lacking force, but have always proved
costly adventures.
The French have gained a little
ground between Albert and Roye, just
north of the point where the line turns
eastward, and east of Rheims and
southwest of Verdun, where attempts
to make untenable the German posi-
lions at ST. Mihie1, on the Meuse are
proceeding slowly. They also have
made some advances in Alsace but
have suffered a repulse to the north
west of ST. Menehould.
In the East the Germans have cap
tured the important Russian position
at Borjimow, but elsewhere have been
unable to make Roadway. The Rus
slams as defenders of well fortified
positions are aided by muddy roads,
which hinder the German movements.
The Austrians claim to have checked
the Russian advance near Gorlice, on
the South Galician railway, but appa-
rently the battle there has not yet
been concluded.
The Russians have taken the Aus
TRAN positions near Zukok Pass which
should open another entrance for
them through the Carpathians into
Hungary, while the Austrian retreat
in Bukowina is described by the Rus
SLAMS as a riot.
The Turks have crossed the Russian
border in the Caucasus and according
to Constantinople, have defeated the
Russian garrison at Ardahan. They
are, however, displaying anxiety for
their remaining possessions in Europe
by feverish1y fortifying the whole
coast line. What they fear Is not dis
closed, for it is considered hardly pos
sible for the Allies to land sufficient
force to prove a menace to them. 1t
is possible they anticipate an invasion
from another source.

Newspapers View of Note.

London.-The Saturday Review de-
scribes President Wilson's note pro-
testing against the British attitude to-
ward American shipping as "a docu-
ment from a candid friend who just
because he is friend, can say things
which between strangers would be re-
garded as having too rough an edge"
The Review does not think it should
be impossible for two governments
who have no wish to find causes for
taking the offensive, to reconcile their
points of view. The position of bel
1igerent with respect to command of
the sea, saws this paper is different
even when neutral governments are
friends. But this position is deter
mined absolutely by the fact that Eng
land has that command of the sea
and Cannot surrender her right to use
it for defeat of the enemy by any
law"

FARM PRODUCTS GREATER
TOTAL VALUE WAS ALMOST TEN
BILLION DOLLARS SAYS THE
ESTIMATE.
Secretary Houston of Agriculture De-
partment Announces Figures on
Stock and Farm Produce.

Washington.-The American farm
products during 1914 eclipsed all rec
ords for value with a total of almost
10 billion dollars. Secretary Houston
announced that the value of all farm
crops, farm animal products and farm
animals sold and slaughtered aggre-
gated $9,872,93 900. That was $685.
100000 more than the total for 1913,
the record year. 1t was more than
double the value of all farm products
in 1892
Crops this year were valued at S.
064, 100000 and farm animal products
at $3,S38, 456,000. The value of crops
was slightly less than in 1913, on &C.
count of the reduced value of cotton.
The corn and wheat crops, however,
were the most valuable ever produced
They brought the years crop value
total to only $88,279,0OO less than the
total for last year, despite the loss
of more than $4,000 900 in the value
of cotton.
"The estimated value of the ami
NAL products of the farm in 1914"
said the Agricultural Outlook, "is dis
tinctly higher than in 1913, which was
itself record year in the value Of this
class of products. This is due to
general, but slight increases in pro-
duction, except for sheep and swine
and in prices, more especially to a
small Increase in the average farm
price of eggs, and to more consid-
cradle increase in the farm price of
cattle and calves sold and slaughter
ed.
''It must be borne in mind that the
accounts of these estimates do not
stand for wealth produced, not for
cash received nor for profit, nor for
income in any sense. Each product
is valued, as in the census, when it
reached commercial form, and the
grand aggregate of all items is from
a relative rather than from an alb
solute point of view"
Sales of crops last year were esti-
mated at ,92S,OOO,OOO; sales of live
stock 100000 a total of $5,847,-
OO,OOO
The estimated value Of total sales
the farm was 1892 and sales per capita
of rural population (excludings towns)
S139
The value of the principal farm
crops this year was:
Corn $1,7O2, $4,000; wheat $685.
100000; hay, $779,96S,OOO; cotton
s519,616,OOO; oats $499, 431 900; pota-
toes s1eS, 600, 900; barley $105, 1903, 900;
tobacco 01,411,0 C@; sweet potatoes

beets $27,95O,OOO; rice $21, $4,000;
faxseed $19,54O.OO0, and buckwheat
$12,892 900.
In the production of these IA prin-
cipal crops, the aggregate was about
10 per cent larger than in 1913 and
per cent smaller than in 1912 which
year stands as one of the greatest ag
gregate production in the United
States.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS GOOD.
Character Of Commerce Of the United
State is Optomistic.

Washington. Business conditions
are described as generally re-assuring
by the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States in report made pub
lie. The report adds however, that
the war has had a widespread and
depressing effect on industry.
Economy naturally prevails among
all classes" says the report, though
remarks have been noted that this
does not extend to automobiles. Flu
ture delivery goods purchases are
smaller and collections uniformly
poor. but lately a marked change has
been noted in a lessening of difficulty
in obtaining bank loans and in an cas-
ing of interest rates. Conditions in
the South, while slowly improving,
still present a serious problem"
Crops in general, the report adds,
have been good, but the cattle in
dustry confronts serious handicaps in
difficulty in obtaining loans on cattle
and the foot and mouth disease quar-
antine The sheep and wool industry
is excellent but general mining con-
ditions are poor.

PURCHASE OF SHIPS
PROPOSED IN BILL
BY A VOTE OF As TO 20 SENATE
PUTS SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
FORWARD.
SENATOR FLETCHER FAvORS
Says That United States Should Buy
Ships For Commercial Indpend-
b ence-Some Objects.

Washington. -Government purchase
of ships as proposed in the Admins
tration bill to create shipping board,
finance $1O,0O0,O0O shipping corpor-
alton and expend not to exceed $780,
100000 for the purchase chartering of
ocean carriers, because the foremost
issue before Congress.
By a vote of As to 20 the Senate
made the ship purchase bill the I'M
finished business, to be supplanted
only by appropriation bills. This &C
ton, on motion of Senator Fletcher,
acting chairman of the Commerce Com
mittee, precipitated a showing on the
part of opposition Senators which
gave certain indication that there were
breakers ahead for the proposed leg
islation. Charging that an effort was
being made to rush the bill with I'M
due haste, Republican members,
among them Senator Gallinger, Lodge
and Root, served notice that the meas
ure would be fought to the last ditch.
Minority members of the Com
merce Committee, filed a report writ
ten by Senator Burton and endorsed
by Senators Nelson, Perkins, Smith
of Michiganand Oliver, asserting that
the plan proposed would not relieve
shipping conditions enough to do any
good. It pointed also to dangers of
of Michigan and Oliver, asserting that
declaring that every craft set afloat
by the Government would add one
more risk of our being drawn into the
present war;"
Senator Fletcher, who has charge
of the bill and who recently conferred
with President Wilson concerning it,
urge the measure in lengthy speech
ftdERepublican Senators had issued,
their pronounciamento of opposition.
He declared the war has produced a
ship famine" and that the interests
of all people in the United States de-
manded that the Government take i'm
mediate action to supply ships to car
ry American products demanded in
the markets of Europe and South
America. He instanced the fact that
cotton sold at - cents pound in
Germany when it was bringing seven
cents in the United States. Germany
would consume 5O0,O0O,OOO pounds of
cotton if she could get it, he said,
and the South had Is times that
amount to sell.

MUST EDUCATE FfLlpINOS.
Taft Says Not Ready for SeIf-Govern-
ment by Thirty Years.

Washington. Former President
William Taft told the senate commit
tee working on the administration
bill for charging Philippine independ-
ence, that the Flipinos in his opinion
would be untitled for government
for the next 80 years-probably for
the half century. Democratic party
promises Of independence, he declar-
ed, had resulted in unrest to which he
attributed, in a measure, the recent
revolutionary disturbances.
Neither President Mckinley, Presi-
dent Roosevelt, nor himself, he said,
had contemplated turning the Philip
pine government over to the natives
before they were educated for self
government. He quoted from Presi-
dent Wilson's writing that "self-gov-
eminent is not mere form of insti-
tltion, but a form of character"
1--WE cannot present the Filipino
people with a character said the
former president. cit must be &C
CURED. You cannot make over a peo-
pie in one generation. The time that
wlll be necessary to train the Filipino
people for self-government is the time
that will be necessary to make them
an English-speaking people. If you
give these people independence now

IMMIGRATION BILL
PASSES IN SENATE
MANY AMENDMENT ARE MADE
WHICH HOUSE WILL PRoBA8-
ACCEPT.
SENATE VOTE WAS so TO 7
Enough Friends of Measure to Pass
Over Expected Veto of President.
-BeIgians Get Exceptions,

Washington.-The immigration bill
containing the restrictive literary test
for admission of aliens, passed the
Senate so to z. The overwhelming
majority was recorded despite indica-
lions that President Wilson would
veto the measure, as did former Pres
ident Taft, if it should come to him
with the educational test included.
The veto indicated that the bill
could be repassed by more than the
required two-thirds majority should
the President reject the measure.
Senators who voted aaginst the bill
were:
Brandegee, McCumber, MARITIME,
O'Gorman, Ransdell, Reed and Walsh.
The bill passed the House last Feb
ruary 241 to 126. Although the Sen
ate amended the House bill in sew
eral particulars, the literacy test was
emption to Belgian subjests, adopted
after prolonged debate.
Among Senate amendments which
House leaders have said probably
would be accepted is one to exclude
from the United States all persons
of the African race or of negro blood.
Another strengthens the phraseology
of the prohibition of polygamists.
Closing hours of the debate were
devoted to an amendment by Senator
Lodge to exempt Belgian farmers
from the literacy test and from pro-
visions which prohibit American from
soliciting or inducing immigration.
Already American organizations are
endeavoring to induce Belgians to set.
tie in this country. The amendment,
as finally adopted, "a to %, reads:
"That the provisions of this act
relating to the illiteracy test or in
duced or assisted immigration shall
not apply to agricultural immigrants
from Belgium who come to the United
States during the course of the pres
ent European war or within one year
after it's termination owing to circum-
stances or conditions arising through
the war, if it is shown to the salts
faction of the Commissioner General
of immigration that the said Belgian
immigrants come with the intention of
engaging in agriculture in the United
States and to become American cit
izens''
