The rear Pullman left the track, but

MOST NECESSARY WORK
IS THAT OF REPAIRS
Chief Constructor of tho Navy Says
This is More Important Than Buil(!
Ing Moro Warships.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.—Although
recognizing tho desirability of having
sdme of the government yards equlpp-
ed for building naval vessels of tho
lurgost size, Rear Admiral V
Capps, chief constructor of tho navy,
In his annual report snys that “the re<
pairing and overhauling of the fleet
must at all times remain the import
ant work of navy yards, nnd In time
of war their resources will be taxed
to the utmost In performing such
work.”
The navy he says Is Increasing so
fnst that ample work will be provided
for tho navy yards by “repairs and
refits” alone*
Of the work on the battleship Con
nectlcut, building at the Now York
yard, the chief constructor says that
despite every effort to reduce the cost
of this, the first battleship to be con
atruoted in a navy ynrd to tho most
ccononomlcnl basts "It can hurdly b
hoped that the work will bo done a
cheaply as when performed In prlvat
•hip building yards, whoso rates or
pay for 9 hours work urc. In many
cases less than those being paid for
8 hours work ut the navy yacd at New
York. It may also be noted that pri
vate ahlp ynrds do not pay their por
diem employes for holidays or when
on leave, whereas a vory lurgo propor
tion of per dlerii employ®* on the Con
necticut receive pay for fifteen days
leave and seven public holidays dur

being done In return therefor."
adds thnt the satisfactory results
obtained with the Connecticut hnve
not been accomplished without un
usual effort.
LONDON, Nov. 1.—The despatch of
the Associated Press from Washing
ton, confirming the statement made in
these dispatches that Japan had Indi
cated her willingness to entertain pence
suggestions from President Roosevelt
or King Edward created much Interest
here. Baron Hnynshl, the Jnpaneso
minister, said today:
"After the fhll of Port Arthur Japnn,
would, I believe, he ready to treat for
peace on no higher essential basis than
that Russia should evacuate Manchu
ria, Japanese also agreeing to similar
evacuation. The two great difficulties
In the way of any suggestion of peace
are, first, the apparent opposition of
Emperor Nicholas’ present advisers to
a settlement of any kind; second tho
preservation of Russian prestige.
When a nation’s prestige If not gone,
Is severely Impaired It Is a difficult
matter even with the best of Inten
tions to preserve It.”
The Associated Press learns that
Queen Alexandria hns been In con
stant communicftt&n with the dosrngsr
empress of Russia nnd Emperor Nlch-
olgB’ himself during tho last few days,
•^fhls Is Interpreted here as a hope
ful sign nnd ns possibly likely to lead
though not In the Immediate future,
to the estabUsnment of somo modus
vlvendl whereby steps looking to ar
bitration might l»e Initiated without of
fense to Russ In.
The reiteration of the American state
department's determination not to In
tervene except on requests from both
of the belligerents tallies with the of
ficial attitude of tho British govern
ment, hut It Is thought that before long
some method may be privately devised
whereby this diplomatic barrier to ue-
tlon will be overcome.
