Williamstown, Mass. Aug. 21. -- Denying alike that the supremacy of the sea had been lost to Great Brit- | ain by the Washington conference and that the battleship had been rendered obsolete, Admiral W. L. Rodgers, chairman of the executive committee of the general board of the navy, addressed the Institute of | | Politids at Williams' College. "The battelship is still the back- bone of the fleet," said Admiral Rodgers, taking issue with Oscar T. Crosby, former assistant secretary ol the treasury, who said that in scrap- ping the battleship the Washington conferénce scrapped what already was obsolete and had done nothing effective to limit competition of naval armament. "The battleship," said Admiral Rodgers, 'is the ultimate arbiter of naval war when and if supported by all auxiliary naval types of shipping." Admiral Rodgers declared he did not think British supremacy of the sea had been overthrown, pointing out that in its merchant marine the English fleet yet remains unap- proachable. "It is by its combination of naval strength with merchant shipping that England has arrived at its dominant position as a world power," ha de- clared. "Until the United States has a merchant fleet of {ts own, the Brit- ish position on the high seas will be unrivalled in peace and war." New York, Aug. 18.--Willie Han- ter, former British amateur golf champion, to-day was declared elig- ible for the United States amateur championship dournament next month at Brookline, Mass. An offic- {al statement {issued by the United showed he retained his amateur status. . The announcement said that the association to-day received a cable from the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St, Andrew's, Scotland, the ruling body in Great Britain, saying 'hat Hunter had not been listed as a professional by it. Doubt as to his status arose when Hunter was not chosen as a member of the British amateur eight, which will play a United States team for he Walker Cup. Nearly one-third of the 236,000 war widows in Englands have re- married. The rate of re-marriage at one time was as high as 2,000 monthly, but recently the rate drop- ped to something less than 1,000 a month.

AT THE RAPIDS PRINCE Next Stage to Shoot Cable to Stranded Ship in Lachine Rapids. Montreal, Aug. 21.--The work of installation of machinery for salvage purposes is still progressing satis- factorily on the little island in La- chine Rapids above the Rapids Prince. This is expected to take about one week to complete, after which another spectacular and risky venture will be made. While getting to the island was a difficult enterprise, the next and fin- al stage is even more dangerous. A scow is to be taken down the rapids veylng the towing hawser will be shot over on to the deck of the Ra- pids Prince, where it will be made fast. After that the real test comes and if the ship does not come off with her own steam up and with the drag of over three thousand feet of steel cable, then the salvage company has spent a lot of money for no return. It is the element of uncertainty that is making the salving of the Rapids Prince one of the riskiest ventures ever made in St. Lawrence shipping annals. LAUDER SIGNS CONTRACT.
