Guy, secretary of the society.
 Secretary Daniels recently sent a note to Admiral Fiske directing him not to make public speeches without special permission. Mir. Guy said he made a personal appeal to Secretary Daniels who expressed sympathy at the predicament of the society, but said he did not feel he could change his ruling in respect to Admiral Fiske. MT. Guy left with the secre- tary copy of the speech the admiral intended to deliver with the request that it be censored by some one in the navy department MT Daniels re- tained the speech and said he would look 1t over, Mir Guy said.
 Secretary Daniels returned the speech this morning, according to NIT. Guy, with note saying the rule re- lating to Admiral Fiske still held. MT. Guy then called Washington on the telephone and told the navy depart ment he had read in the newspapers that Admiral Fiske had spoken here last night. He was informed, he de- clsred. that the address of Admiral Fiske, which was at a meeting ar. ranged by the Navy. League of the United States. had been without the knowledge or permission of the navy department. although it had been an nounced that the speech had been ap- proved by Secretary Daniels.

HOUSE LEADERS OF
 BOTH PARTIES PLAN
 SPEEDY LEGISLATION
Clark, Kitchin and Mann
 Agree That Appropriation Bills Be Reintroduced and
 Passed In Hurry.

WASHINGTON, Mar. 2S. - House leaders. Democrats and Republicans, began conferences late today to pave the way for quick action on appropri- ations and legislation bearing on the international crisis regardless Of which party organizes the house when the extra session begins Mon- day.
 Speaker Clark. Democratic Leader Kitchin. Republican Leader Mann and Representative Fitzgerald agreed tentatively that the big appropriation bills which failed at the last session should be reintroduced in the form in which they originally passed the house. acted upon without delay un- der a suspension of the rules and sent to the senate. They also agree that should either party organize the house the minority representation on all committees should be raised sev- eral members.
 Democratic members of the ways and means committee of the last con- gress who will serve in the incoming congress conferred on committee as signments for their party. confident that. as heretofore, their caucus will name them to make the selections. The meeting was executive.
 Democratic leaders continued today to express confidence that the dissat- isfed element of their party would make no serious objection to the com mittee designations as planned by the ways and means members. but all of them are awaiting the coming of Rep resentative Gallivan of Massachusetts before they will say; finally thet the anti-prohibitionists will not cause some trouble Representative Galli- van is credited with controlling 20 or more votes.
 Save for statement by Mir Mann that he expected to see tickets placed in the field by both parties. all was quiet in Republican circles.

100000 TONS Of |NTERNED GERMAN SHIPS
SEIZED AS PRIZES Of WAR IN j. s PORTS

There were indications today that
damage done to the ships by their
crews when relations between the
United States and Germany were
broken will be repaired and the ships
put into the transatlantic trade to
transport supplies to the allies.
Is Grand Prize
Tonnage of the vessels seized
amounts to $4,000 gross tons. That
tonnage could not be built in Ameri-
can yards in less than year and
some of the larger ships, notably the
Vaderland, could not be produced in
everal years.
All the ships will have to be dry
docked before they can be made sea
worthy. The great vaderland. with
tonnage of $4,000. will have to be tow
ed to Balboa to be docked. The ear
liest time estimated 10 put any of the
vessels into service is three months.

The President went over the great
preparatory measures with the cabi-
net, discussing what has been accom-
plished and dwelling, it is understood,
upon arrangements for cooperation
with the entente allies. Plans for CO.
operation are said to have taken de-
finite shape though there will be no
announcement on the subject for the
present. The seizure of German ships
laid up in American harbors was the
subject of interested comment and le-
gal officiars of the government began
consideration of the question or
whether the United States can confis-
cate the ships outright or must pay
for them after the war.
Captured Ships invaluable
In any event, as soon as they can
be made seaworthy, the fine merchant
fleet thus acquired will give America
a merchant marine that could not be
duplicated in several years and add
more than 100000 to the tonnage
available for the transportation OF
supplies and munitions to the allies.
