POLISH TELEGRAM
SHOWS GRATITUDE
BERLIN, Germany (Wednesday
wireless to Sayville)—The Austrian
and German manifestos regarding the
creation of a Polish state were dis
cussed at a mass meeting in Warsaw
yesterday, after which the following
i telegram was sent to Emperor Wil
liam and Emperor Francis Joseph:
“Mighty Monarchs: On this daiy, so
felicitous for the Polish' race, when it
learns that it will be free with an au
tonomous state, its own king and its
I own army, every liberty-loving Pole is
impressed with the feeling of thank
fulness to those who have freed the
| Polish people through their good will
and given to it a renewal of autono
mous government. The victories of
your invincible armies have liberated
two towns equally dear to the Polish
heart—Warsaw and Vilna.
“The agreement between Germany
and Austria-Hungary with regard to
the Polish question gives us an autono
mous national existence, the greatest
benefit for a people, and also gives us
the possibility of marching with all
our forces against our traditional en
emy, the Muscovite. We know that
your purpose, most august emperors,
Stands behind that which has been
done and is an important element in
this historic event. Therefore we send
your majesties an expression of our
gratitude and assurance that the Pol
ish people will be able to prove faith
ful to its allies.”

BIDS OPENED ON
PROPOSED NEW
BOATS FOR NAVY
WASHINGTON, D. C.—It may be
found necessary to ask congress to
raise the cost limit before the navy
department can award contracts for
construction of the four 35-knot scout
cruisers in the 1817 building program.
Bids for the vessels were opened
Wednesday, with the result that only
one builder, the Seattle Construction
& Dry Dock company, offered a direct
proposal. This company bid within
the limit of $6,000,000 for hull and
machinery, but it proposed to con
struct only one boat.
Two other bidders, the Union Iron
Works of San Francisco and the Fore
River company of Quincy, submitted
proposals based on a sliding scale ar
rangement which would take into ac
count possible variations of material
and labor prices. The New York Ship
Building company gave notice that it
could not get its estimate within the
limit of cost.
It was indicated that the depart
ment might delay awarding contracts
until congress could be asked to in
crease the limit of cost 10 per cent or
more.
Bids for 27 coast submarines and
two 800-ton type fleet submersibles,
also were received, and it is virtually
assured that all of these vessels can
be built by private contract. Included
among the offers was that of Schnei
der & Co. of Paris and New York,
which presented three designs similar
to those upon which submersibles for
the French and other European gov
ernments have been built. The com
pany proposed to authorize the Unit
ed States to construct at its own
yards as many boats on these designs
as it might desire on a royalty basis.
The Electric Boat company of
Bridgeport, Conn., submitted the most
comprehensive estimates on subma
rines, offering eight seperate propos
als for 24 boats of the coast type and
two propositions under which it would
construct oneor both the 800-ton fleet
submersibles. The nominal limit of
cost forthe coast type boats was set
at $700,000 each.
The Lake Torpedo Boat company
bid for from six to ten coast type sub
mersibles and for one 800-ton boat.
The figures are all within the limit
of cost.
