Navy, in his an nual report calls attention to the critical condition of engineering ill 1 the navy" and points to the eX plosion of the gunboat Bennington in San Diego harbor, which he says most forcibly emphasis the necessity of serious and immediate attention. FORT DEFIANCE. Martinique, Nov 3.-The French armored cruiser De saved, Admiral Bevoe De La Peyere, which sailed from Cherbourg Oct. ! 15, arrived here and is now coaling. A dispatch from Paris Oct. 16, said that departure of the desayed for Martinique inaugurated preparation for dealing with the Venezuelan ques tion with a strong hand if President Castro presided in his course against France.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-With great eclat, Prince Louis of Battenberg was received by the President and Mrs. Roosevelt at g o'clock this af- ternoon. The Prince was the bearer of d personal message of good will from King Edward to President Roosevelt, and was presented to the President by Sir Henry Mortimer Durand, British ambassador. Not since Prince Henry of Prussia was a guest of the German ambassador in Washington has royal visitor been the recipient of greater honors.
 ODESSA, Nov. 3.-After a fairly quiet night. shooting commenced this morning. Up to the present no Christian shops or houses have been touched The principal hotels are full of the better class of Jews, seeking refuge.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 3. In his next message to Congress, President Roosevelt will deal with railway rate legislation more extensively than in previous communications. He has already got much of that part ol his message in shape. Next to rail way rate legislation the subjects most in the Presidents mind are federal control of insurance and fed eral regulation of political campaign contributions.
