$3OO,OOO Voted Into Naval Bill For Use By Delegates After War, In Affecting Lasting Peace
MONROE DOCTRINE
 DEFENDED BY CLARK
Will Live As Long As Earth Spins, And Any Nation Who Wants Fight Will Get Whipped, He Says
(By Review Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, June 1.-An unsuc. cessful fight was led by Representa- tive Gradner of Massachusetts, against the section of naval bill embracing the Hensley resolution authorizing an amendment to the bill in the estab- lishment of an international court for the enforcement of peace. The sec tion, was retained without a roll call in the House, sitting as a committee of the whole.
 } Speaker Clark took the floor and aroused enthusiastic by declaring the section was the best feature of the bill.
 Advocates of greater preparedness succeeded in obtaining appropriations not to exceed s6,0OO,0OO for enlarging the navy yards at Boston, Portsmouth. Charleston. Philadelphia, Norfolk, New Orleans and Puget Sount. Capital ships would be constructed at the Puget Sound, Norfolk, Philadelphia and Charleston yards.
 Representative Gardner wanted to know whether the United States would arbitrate the Monroe Doctrine, if it were assailed. That brought Speaker  Clark to his feet.
 "I wouldn't take the time of this committee if I did not believe that that is the most important section Of this bill," said the Speaker. "The gentleman from Massachusetts wants to know if we ever would arbitrate the Monroe Doctrine. No, we never will arbitrate it while the earth spins on its axis. It is the only political proposition that all the American peo- pie ever did agree upon. He wants to know if we will ever arbitrate questions of war and peace. No. I hope we never will be engaged in another war and if we attend to our own business, I don't think We ever will. No nation is foolish enough to attack us. and if one does it will get whipped"

COLONIA DUBLAN, June 1.(By wireless to Columbus, N. M)-The conference between General Gabriel Gavira, commanding northern Chi huahua, and General J. J. Pershine, in charge of the punitive expedition. ended tonight very satisfactorily. in the words of General Pershing to the press correspondents. Beyond this brief announcement, General Pershing maintained silence and nothing was revealed by either side as to the nature of the subjects discussed and the agreement made in regard to the cooperation of the two forces against the bandit bands in this territory.
 General Gavira was entertained at dinner tonight in the American camp headquarters as the guest of General Pershing American regimental flags belonging to the Tenth Cavalry were draped about the heads of the two commanding officers. Iced drinks were served. which was an event of some importance to the Americans as it was the first ice available in the American camps during the long. hot and dusty weeks of the campaign.

 Except for the fact that the number of troops the Mexican minister of war has sent into northern Mexico is so much greater than the number he had told Generals Scott and Funston he would send. army officers have seen little to cause them to believe an at tack is to be made on the American trOons.
 Information that has been received at General Funston's headGuarters is of contradictory character. but if appears certain that the number Of Mexican troops now in the state Of Chihuahua is between 20.0O0 and 30.. OOn
