1t Is getting TO be n long drawn out

mittee dealing with this subject will

Secretary Daniels talked with board
members by telephone to-day and ar
ranged the conferences. No definite
announcement is expected to follow the
meeting. The Secretary repeatedly has
indicated that even a complete solution
of the problem would have TO become
known first through actual operation.
No navy official would admit tonight
that he knew of any specific scheme
evolved by the board, and Mr.. Saun-
ders' statements apparently were re-
garded as indicating only that results
lad been obtained which would justify
experimental work on a larger scale.

Deadlock Over
War Army Bill
Conferrees Unable to Agree
on Draft and Roosevelt
Volunteer Division

Washington, May 7.-Conferrees on
the war army bill in four-hour discus
sion to-day failed to reconcile the dif-
ferences between the bill as 1t passed
the two houses and adjourned until to-
morrow.
A decided difference Of opinion arose
over the Senate amendment which
would permit Colonel Roosevelt to take
an expeditionary force 70 France. IN
less IL is smoothed out the bill may
have TO 90 back 70 the two houses for
further action.
Other points of difference included
the prohibition amendment, inserted by
the Senate, and the age limits OF men
subject TO the selectiye draft. The SEN
ate bill fixes the limits between twenty
one and twenty-seven and the House
between twenty-one and forty.
Although there was talk tonight OF
a compromise by which the Senate
would get the Roosevelt volunteer
amendment and the House the age
limits. as fixed in its bills. it was said
there was nothing tangible in to-dsy's
conference to make this appear more
than a possibility.

Recruiting for City's
Engineer Regiment to
Begin Tomorrow

The work Of raising New York's regi-
ment Of engineer troops for immediate
service in France will begin at 9 o'clock
tomorrow morning, when a recruiting
station will be opened at 100 Sixth
Avenue. If the response is as prompt
as expected, the regiment probably will
be ordered into camp next week, and
will sail for the front within sixty
days
Ii will be known as the lst Reserve
Engineer Regiment. and will be com
manded by Lieutenant Colonel c. II.
McKinstry, Corps of Engineers. U. S. A.
1t will consist Of 1901 men and thirty
seven officers recruited from the con-
struction and railroad forces of the
metropolitan district. Officers already
assigned to duty with it are Captain \.
II. Price, Corps of Engineers, L. 5. A..
and Majors William Barclay Parsons
and Arthur s. Dwight and Captains
George II. Clifford, John P. Hogan, H.
W. Hudson and John d. Irving, OF the
Engineer Officers Reserve Corps.
Altogether there have been about
fifty men tentatively accepted, and be
tween 300 and 400 are on the waiting
list. The men will enlist for the dura-
tion of the war only. The regiment
cannot be raised by draft, on account
of the skilled men needed, and because
it is expected it will be sent abroad
long before the draft becomes effective.
When told Of the governments order
for raising the nine engineer regiments,
Thomas c. Desmond, the consulting
engineer who has been in charge Of
the recruiting Of Colonel Roosevelt's
proposed fighting force, said he would
be glad to place at the governments
disposal some three thousand engineers
who have enrolled with him, If the
