Republicans Adopt Minor
ity Report Urging More
Ships and Men.
OFFICERS DECLARE
FOR DREADNOUGHTS
Naval Experts Point Out Need of
Larger Force of Destroyers
and Scouts.

Washington, May ia minority re-
port on the naval appropriation bill was
agreed upon to-day at "A conference OF
Republican members Of the House
Naval Committee. Their programme,
which is the same they proposed in the
committee yesterday, includes six bat
tle-cruisers, two dreadnoughts, six
scout-cruisers. twenty-eight destroyers,
fifty submarines and several auxiliary
ships.
The Republicans will make fight
for this programme and for twenty
thousand additional enlisted men.
The bill as agreed upon yesterday by
the majority of the committee, provid-
ing for no capital ships except five bat
tle-cruisers, may be reported to the
House next Wednesday. 1t carries a
total of S24l ,449,152.
The committees report was discussed
at to-day's Cabinet meeting. The Adj
ministration expects provision to be
made for two dreadnoughts before the
bill finally is enacted.
That there should have been two bat
tleships and four battle-cruisers pro-
vided for in the naval appropriation bill
was the opinion Of officers at the New
York Navy Yard last night. A grave
mistake had been made in disregarding
the Importance of the dreadnoughts, it
was said. and Congress should learn
that battle-cruisers can never take the
place of battleships as the most impor-
tsnt adjuncts of fighting fleet.
Officers regard battle cruisers Of
greater importance TO the American
navy than TO that Of any other coun-
try except England, but they insist
that the dreadnoughts, the first line
of defence, cannot be superseded by
the faster vessels.
II was pointed out that by adding
ss,000,000 TO the 500, 900. 900 that the
five battle-cruisers would cost and
dropping one cruiser. two battleships
could be provided. Each of the new
battle cruisers would cost about s2O.-
100000. it was said First line dread

Mr.. Woods later explained that
there had been exceptional cases of

their wires tapped.
Were you directed by any one
higher in authority to listen in on

Mr.. Woods said that 10 deprive the

other was with the Humboldt Company.

lieved that they should give 10 their
