Senate Discussing the $1,000,000 Appropriation for Nickel Plates. sae ete THE ROCK CREEK PARK BILL PASSED. pamvesie ie Soo SENATE, Mr. Sherman introduced a bill, which was referred to the committee ou appropriations, appropriating 133,009 for the purchase for the use of the Senate of the Maltby House, at the corner of New Jersey avenue and B strect northwest, with the vacant lotson the north fide of it, He said that the reason why the matter of its purchase had been so long de- layed was that there had been litigation as to the title to the property, but that litigation had now been settled. THE ROCK CREEK PARK BILL PASSED. The confercuce report presented yesterday On the bill to establish the Rock Creck Park in the District of Columbia was agreed to and the Dill now goes to the President for his ap- proval. BILLS PASSED, Bills on the calendar unobjected to were then taken up (for one hour) and the following, among others, were passed: Senate bill granting a right of way to the Jamestown and Northern Railway Company through the Devil's Lake Indian Reservation, North Dakota, Senate bill to anthorize the construction of a bridge across the Missouri river at the most uc- cessible part within one mile above or below the town of Quinduro, in the county ot Wyan- dotte, Kansas, A MILLION FOR NICKEL ARMOR PLATES. The House joint resolution appropriating $1,000,000 for the purchase of nickel ore and nickel matte for naval purposes having been received from the Houxe was laid before the Senate (at the request of Mr. Hale), and Mr. Cameron offered au amendment to it providing that such mickel ore or nickel matte so pur- chased shall be equitably distributed among the contractors of nickel steel armor plating, THE EXPERIMENTS AT ANNAPOLIS. In reply to questions put by Mr. Dolph, Mr. Hale said that there never had been so com- plete and demonstrating a test of the value of an amalgamation of nickel with steel for stecl plates for vessels and ordnance as the recent one at Annapolis. The result of that expcri- ment was so remarkable that the Secretary of the Navy deemed it essential that he should (while the opportunity offered) secure the control of nickel enough to make an alloy for the plates now being forged. ‘The committee on naval affairs had had a full hear- ing on the matter, at which the results of the text were submitted and he had been unani- mousy authorized to report the joint resoin- tion. “Lhe House of Represeitatives had passed it and it was very desirable that the Renate should pass it today. Mr. Dolph—So that the proposed action is pee mainly on the one experiment at Annap- olin? Mr. Hale—It is based largely on that, al- though the matter has been for some time in the minds ot naval officers, Mr. Dolph—Have not the contracts for the steel plate for armor been made? Mr. Hale—They have been, Mr. Dolph—Then a change will have to bo made in those contracts? Mr. Hale—Tkat matter has been gone over by the Secretary of the Navy with the con- tractors, and they are entirely willing to have an amalgamation of nickel in the plates which have not yet proceeded too far to allow that to be done. Mr. Dolph inquired as to the additional cost. t. Hale—Nickel is, of course, more expe sive than torged stecl, but the government ja; for it and is to get the benefit of at by arrange- ment with the contractors, It will be a matter of agreement between the Secretary and the contractors, The great supply of nickel is found in two places—in the Ludbury district of Canada and in New Caledonia. ‘The Canadian mine is owned by our own citizens, and these gentlemen are entircly willing to furnish the government with it if contracted for now (and that is one reason for Prompt action), because they can scll the hoy product to foreign powers that desire to get i Mr. Dolph inquired as to putting nickel on the tree list. + Mr. Hale—Nickel is imported in matte (or pig). There wassome product in Pennayl- Yania, but that mine has been lon; since exhausted. I do not think that there is any —_necessity ‘for the amendment proposed by the Senator from } Pennsylvania. In dealing with this subject the Secretary of the Navy bes, mere than any one else, the responsibility of earrsing out the Great work of building up the navy, and he will make proper arrangements with the con- tractors, HOUSE, Mr. Candler (Mass.), from the world’s fair committee, reported a resolution providing that a subcommittes of five members of that committce shall be appointed by the chairman to inquire into the progress of the details for the holding of the proposed exhibition, to ex- amine into the amount of space allotted to the various government displays and alj other mat- ters which the subcommities may deem advis- able and to report to the House at the begin- ning of the next session, Adopted.
