P. Bridge old dream of a Panama Canal come true, today flashed the magic of his genius for organization and accomplishment upon government's "hazy" shipbuilding program. With the cheers of 800 American steel men still echoing through New-York to confirm their enlistment under Goethals, an army of workmen started today at It task of putting the first emergency shipyard Into condition across the river at Newark. Within six months, according to the steel men, this new plant of the Amer-lean Bridge Company, a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation, will be turning out one 5,000 to 8,000 ton steel ship a day. This Is the first actual step toward accomplisment of Goethals' task of building a thousand 8,000 ton ship In 16 month.

Goethals told the steel men that after his "call to government service on the principle of selective draft" a brief survey of the situation convinced him that the wooden ship plan was an Impractical myth. He said he found the bird still nesting In th tree that were to go into the ships. NO PLANS READY. He sought plana and specifications, but there were none. He found plenty of offer to build ships, but very little ability back of most of them.

Goethals abandoned the wooden ship plan.

Rear Admiral Lacaze, Minister of Marine, outlined the mean of defense against the undersea boats. In the Chamber of Deputies tonight "I see no reason I should not speak of these methods," said Admiral Lacaze. "It would be childish to think they are unknown to the enemy. They consist of a system of patrol boats, of -arming merchantmen and fitting them with wireless; of sea planes, nets, mines, smoke raising devices and dragnets." STOCKHOLM, May 26. Secretary of State Lansing refusal to issue passport to American Socialists to the German-Inspired "peace conference" dismayed and depressed the delegates already here for that meeting.

The news wa received today. The representatives could hardly credit It "The report Is either false or else the result of a misunderstanding of the purpose of the conference," Insisted Chairman Branting. Meetings of varlou groups of Socialist still continue today, but It was apparent that the German plan of a general meeting Is now a failure. Branttng and Secretary Huysman, the Swedish and Dutch Socialists, who have been the brains of the meeting so far, decided today that continuance of the present separate conferences, even if there Is no general session, will strengthen the International Socialist Bureau's place. They aspire to a place on the peace conference board, or at least some lever by which their Influence be felt at that meeting ending the war.

Among the delegates as a whole the news that no American Socialists would be present added to knowledge that the British and French Socialists would likewise be absent was a body blow. Americans had been depended on to strengthen the "immediate peace groups." composed for the most part of representative of the Central powers. With the general conference scheme doomed, It was becoming increasingly apparent today from the proceedings of the various groups that even if such a general session could have been held, its deliberations would have been practically valueless. The conference all show a national spirit rather than an International one. The action of the Finnish delegates Is typical.

When they meet with Dutch and Scandinavian representatives the Finns' principal point of discussion was Of measures to obtain autonomy for Finland. It was authoritatively reported that they showed little Inferest or understanding in the various International aspects of disputed questions on annexations and indemnities. Their own concern overtopped everything else- BOYS ARE BURNED SCRANTON, May 26. Three! boys, ranging from four to ten years!

Miller recently wrote to Chief Petersen from St. Louis stating that he knew where Frank Smith could be located, and asking about the reward. Chief Petersen wired the St. Louis police to get In touch with Miller which they did. He Informed them bb to Smith' whereabout and Smith was taken Into custody.

Then Miller wa released. He went to Kansas City and was arrested by the police on suspicion of his being Smith. Evidently he had talked of the St. Louis episode. The Kansas City police wired Chief Petersen, asking if Miller was wanted here.
