Question of Military Prepared
ness Also to Be Consid
ered Again.
Washington, Jan. 4. With the Im
migration bill passed by both houses
and ready for adjournment in confer
ence, the senate probably will take up
as the next big legislative task the ad
ministration bill for legislative task
the administration bill for government
purchase of ships already favorably
reported. '
Senator Fletcher, acting chairman of
the commerce ' committee has confer
red with President Wilson regarding
expedition of the measure. It Is cer
tain, however, that there will be vigor
ous opposition. A minority report
from republican members of the com
mittee will be filed today.
Just how soon administration lead
ers can get. the debate under way on
the bill is uncertain, as appropriation
bills will begin to cqme up in the sen
ate this week.
Demicratlc supporters of the Immi
gration bill said they believed Presi
dent Wilson would not veto It because
of his objection to the literacy test.
Several weeks ago the president let It
be known he objected to the test, but
added he had not made up his mind
what final course he would take, oe-
cause of the many meritorious features
of the measure.
Military preparedness will come to
the fore again today. Representative
Gardner, who has been urging special
Investigation of the subject, will be
granted a hearing by the house mili
tary committee.
Tuesduy tin; senate Philippine com
mittee will resume hearings on tho
Jones bill enlarging Philippine Inde
pendence. Secretary Garrison Is ex
pected to be a witness during the
week.
London, Jan.: 4. Another '' cutter
from the Br(tish battleship Formida
ble, Bunk In the English channel Fri
day, has reached Lyme Regis, Dorset
shire, with fifty men, bringing the total
of saved up to 201. ' ' ,
When the cutter left the Formidable
she had 60 or more men aboard, but
all but 60 succumbed to exposure, hav
ing been In an open boat for some
twenty hours In a Violent storm.
Albert Edward Cooper, master at
arms, one of the survivors landed at
Lyme-Regis, said the explosion oc
curred between 1:30 and 2:30 o'clock
in the morning. When he reachad
deck the ship had begun to settle on
the starboard side. Boats were launcn
ed and remained near near the ship to
pick up survivors, but some of the
boats, which stood out about twenty
yards, were swamped by wreckage.
The men all were scantily clad and
suffered terribly from the cold during
the trip to shore. Some died during
the day and were passed overboard.
Upon the arrival of the cutter at
Lyme-Regis, at 11 o'clock Friday
night, six were found dead in the bot
tom of the boat.
A policeman on duty heard cries for
help and, going to the beach, found
the cutter with the men, none of
whom could land without assistance.
Some were so exhausted that artificial
respiration was necessary.
A terrific southeast gale was blowing
all the time, and although the men
took turns at the oars, it was impossi
ble for them to keep warm.
