Pad? gett, of Tennessee, chairman of the House Naval Committee, will call that m ?asure up today and officially report the fact that the House and Senate conferees have been unable to SglBS on the battleship question. The House wih then probably send the conferees back with instructions to make another formal stand against the two-battleship amendment of the te. The understanding will be that the Democratic caucus wil be ho id before the conferees make another report and that the Senate will not yield in the meantime. (aliens to Release IMi-dir?"-. The scheme to hold another caucus and settle the matter there either i>y a complete victory for the two-hat tleship men or t>y a compromise on one battleship will prevent a lot of trouble for the thirty Democrats who have pledged themselves to vete for tWO battleships initier any circum? stances. No man likes to be called a "bolter," and these men, through their patriotism and belief in an adequate navy, would lay theins? h t s open t<> that charge unless the caucus re?? them. Among the hundreds Of Utters re eeiveti by Representative Bulser, com mending the campaign for two bat? tleships, there came one yesterday from Mrs. Lillian Pike Rooms, Of 1419 Clifton Street, this city, s daughter of the late (ieiural Albert Pike. Mrs. j I.Hume said that her father was a lirm believer la the Monroe ?lo? trine and in the necessity for an efficient army anil a powerful navy. "It seems to be the opinion that this is a matter of deep concern only to these living: near the expuse?! placea on the coasts." said Mrs. Room? in her plea for a larga naval program. 'These would learn to their cost what a lamentable error this is, for while an lavading force might not ever nach the interior of the country, devastation would seriously affect all th?- other States. Hitnitrr to the Nailon. "Can anyone doubt that the destruc? tion of New York city would be an al? most irretrievable disaster to every other section of the country, BO far reaching would be its effects? So many and varied are the interests, financial, political and social, which would be affected by any fluctuations of this great banking center tint there is no spot, however insignificant or remote, that would not bave some share in the injury. And there would be a similar disturbance, though in a lesser degree, If any other city were devastated, and notably the Capital city. "Be sure that any hostile power would undoubtedly make an effort, and very likely a successful one. in cai war, to loot our treasury and carry away the untold mill lona which art hoarded in its vaults. I think it WOUld be much belter to expend some of those useless billions for battle? ships or munitions of war. or other provisions for defense, or for public buildings or watsrways or pensions or monuments; or any project that would benefit the people. and put enough money in circulation, rather than t?> keep on piling it up year after year to be a temptation for poorer nations." at. v.
