(Main Floor, Right Aisle.) VETO POWER Of HOUSE Of LORDS (Continued from P«e One) of lords over all progressive legisla tion the. Irish party decides not to complicate the great issue by moving an amendment to the address or by balloting for bills and motions during the present, session." This decision was accepted generally to mean that although John Redmond, ,<,;, Nationalist leader, had passed judgment against the government, he and his followers had decided to defer the execution of the sentence and not to throw out the cabinet over the budget while abstaining from sup porting the financial measure as they abstained in the last parliament. Home rule for Ireland is the stake for which the Nationalists are playing, and they realize that it would cease to be a live Issue immediately on the resignation or defeat of the govern ment. Will Not Impose Obstacles In a speech at a political luncheon today Arthur J. Balfour, leader of the opposition in the house of commons, nlso helped to clear the atmosphere by intimating that the Unionists did not propose to throw any unnecessary dif ficulties in the way of the government in dealing with the impending prob- Is This Fair?

On the resumption of the debate in the house of commons George N. Barnes, chairman of the Parliamen tary Labor party, aligned the Labor- Itea with the Nationalists and de manded, further assurances that Pre mier Asqulth would not delay dealing with the lords' power of veto. The Labor members, he said, be lieved the house of lords was a use less, irritating barrier to Democratic progress. The electors, he added, ex pected decisive action and he wished definite assurance that if the veto question was not dealt with Imme diately it would bo settled before the next budget was passed. Laborites Favor Home Rule Barnes declared that the Labor party was in favor of home rule. The negotiations between the gov ernment and the Nationalists, tempo rarily suspended, were reopened this afternoon. The Irish leaders laid their views before the cabinet, urging the desirability of subordinating every thing possible to the question of the lords' power of veto. Subsequently the ministers met in the premier's room in the house of commons for a council among themselves. In the house of commons 'William O'Brien, Nationalist, said the only ef fectual thing the present house could do was to teminate its own existence. He cams out flatfootedly In denun ciation of the budget, which he said would prove, If adopted, a curse to Ireland. O'Brien twitted Redmond, saying that personally he did not regard the veto of the lords as so dangerous to the success of home rule as would be the passage of the budget.

FEBRUARY 23, 1010, $1,000,000 PANE TO WASHINGTON MASONS TO ERECT TEMPLE TO FIRST PRESIDENT fjilTi IN ALEXANDRIA SELECTED FOR MEMORIAL [ Secretary of War and Grand Masters of Order Meet and Form National Association to Build Monument ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 22. -The movement to erect a permanent Mason ic memorial to Ui'i'w Washington took its first definite form today when Cen. J. M. Dickinson, Becretarj of war, and tiie grand masters of many Masonic grand lodges mot here with other dis tinguished men of the fraternity to form a National Masonic Memorial as i so, iation. Perhaps no Masonic celebra tion ever hald anywhere in America i has been more elaborate, In this quaint old town of Ivy-covered ! walls and rambling gardens, on a street ! laid out by the young surveyor, mar I the spot Where In 1754 Braddock's youthful colonel quartered his troops i before the fateful march to the Ohio; I near the historic old lodge where he ! was a master, and in the midst of a field rich in the events of his life and memory, it will be thi purpose of this 'association to erect a temple to George , Washington, a Mason. Set apart iji the structure will be a hall of fame, in | which space will be allotted to all the grand Jurisdictions In the country to ] place tablets i" th I memories of their distinguished sons. Site for Monument The memorial would stand iji Wash ington street. Close by is the old Christ church, where In his mature years Washington served us a vestryman. In a field not far Off he held his last military review. Across a shaded green in the stately old court house be cast his last vote, and there his will is filed. Alexandria, by undisputed consent, Is the natural sfte for the memorial. Washington moved to Mount Vernon when lie. was 16 years old with his half brother Lawrence, anil until the chill, raw day of his death it was his home and Alexandria was his home town. He became a member of its' council, represented it in the house of burgesses. endowed its schools, established its fire ' department and was master of Its lodge. The men who will form the associa tion met today in the same Alexandria lodge room where Washington occu pied the masters chair. While no fixed plan could be announced prior to the : assembly of all the grand masters, it is in short the purpose of the lodge to raise $1,000,000 to build and endow the memorial!. Memorial to Be Uuique The institution will be unique among the memorials of the world and will penult every grand jurisdiction to hon or every Mason it esteems to be deserv ing with a leaf in its hall of fame, a photograph and a biography. The gathering of such men of pmnil nence in the old lodge was impressive. Alexandria-Washington lodge, No. 22, made Washington its worahipftll mas ter in ITBS. At his request In 1791 It laid the cofner rtone of the District of Columbia, and two years later assisted in laying the corner stone of the na tional capitol. ]n 1798 it performed the Masonic ceremonies at liis funeral. In its Hells, crowded With precious mementoes, his memorial was organ ized today. There hangs the old char ter granted by Edmund Randolph, grand master of Masons in Virginia in 1788. Close by. its pendulum cord cut and its ha nils pointing to twenty minutes after tun in the evening—the hour and the minute of his death — stands the old bedchamber clock. No money could buy this silent old tale bearer. Nearby in a case is the little trowel he used at laying the capitol cornerstone. Knife Given by Mother In another room are his wedding gloves, his pocket compasses, farm spurs, a piece of his tent used at Tork town, his old-fashioned medicine scales and ah eloquent token of his rever ence for his mother—a little knife she pave to him as a reward for his obe dience and which he treasured for fifty-six years. The Williams picture, painted from life in 1794, bangs on another wall, it cannot escape the eye, for it is much unlike the accepted likenesses of Washington, it shows the mini in his extreme old ago and is the only orig inal life picture extant in Masoni galla. His Masonic apron embroidered In gold with French and American flaps entwined, presented'to the lodge in ISI2 by his nephew, Lawrence Lewis, hangs near by. The only orig inal painting of Lord Fairfax, Wash ington's early patron and friend, is also there. The master's chair, occupied by Gen. Washington in presiding over the lodge, stands in a glaM case, from which It is removed only on extra ordinary occasions. It is 122 years old and was in constant iise for 117 year*. Scores of other tiling.-! of his day, the old chain and benches of the lodge still In use. the front dour key of the Bastlle, presented In 1815 by Lafuyette, which have come from relatives and friends, are valued beyond estimate. Site Is Appropriate) There had been a sentiment against choosing a new site for the memorial, but for a great many reasons the one proposed on Washington street is bet ter fitted to the purposes of a national undertaking and the necessities have outweighed the patriotic sentiment and have won a graceful consent to the new site. Today's Uvyt meeting, held in the lodge room, adjourned at noon and all went to Mount Vernon by a special train. Thu party of distinguished men walked along the bluff that overlooks the majestic river and laid a wreath upon the tomb. They then returned to the lodge at Alexandria for con ferring of degrees.

ADMIRAL HINTS AT NAVY CLIQUE SAYS IT HAS SPREAD FALSE REPORTS ABOUT SHIPS Denies that the United States Cruis. ers West Virginia and Maryland Are Un. seaworthy SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 22.—Because ot the recent statements concerning the reported unseuv. orthiness of the cruisers West Virginia and Maryland, and the attendant alarm upon the part Of the relatives of the officer* and men aboard these ships, Adm'ral Barry to day sent his Hag officer, Ensign Glass ford, ashoro with tho following state ment: "No protest has bten forwarded by anyone asking that the ships do not go to sea. (M' COUrS* the vessels are in need of repairs af r such a long cruise, but as far as there being any danger In taking them south, that is all foolishness. A recommendation was forwarded asking that the two ships proceed at a slower Speed than the rest of the fleet. Engines and boilers are, of course, in need of re pairs." Admiral Harher slated that a clique within the navy stationed at the navy yard were responsible for these reports, lie said: "There is need of the ships being docked find overhauled, but with suf ficient coal they could go around the world without going near a navy yard. The principal result of the stories that have appeared in print has been to alarm needlessly the relatives of the officers and men. It is true that the two cruisers were to'ved a good part of the wa;- from Honolulu. There were several good reasons for this. One was that they were steaming slower than the rest of the fleet and it was thought that by towing we could get In quicker. Another reason was on aci ount of the immense amount of coal being consumed, and a third was that the commander in chief wanted to make towing tests." Admiral Harb|r, in command of the fleet, expressed himself in emphatic denial of the story that the boats were in an almost helpless and dangerous condition. "The boats shall go south with the rest of the fleet," he said today. "The stories about the West Virginia and Maryland come from the navy yard at Vallejo."
