The mon whose voices are most powerful in the counsels of the Republican party have no doubt that they can nominate Associate Justice Charles E. Hughes, of the United States Supreme Court over Colonel Roosevelt, if they desire to do so. Whether they will actually throw their influence in favor of the nomina- tion of the justice is, however, a ques- tion that is still undetermined. atis- fied that they will be able to prevent the nomination of Colonel ioosevelt by turning to Justice Hughes the old time leaders will canvass the situation carefully before committing them- selves to Mr. Hughes. tIOlUSE PASSES APPROPRII ATION HILL FOR NATY BY I4G VOTE Washington, June 2.-The naval ap- propriations bill carrying a total pro- posal of $269,900,000 for the coming year, passed the house finally today by a vote of 58 to 4.

Following up their success, in the Caillette Wood yester- dlay afternoon, the Germans launched a powerful attack this morning on the sector to the east extending from the Vaux Pond, immediately west of the jvillage of .Vaux. The French line is in front of Fort ' Vaux, which was the objective of the German assault. The massed attack, which has been used by the Germans throughout the recent renewal of the Vrdun offensive, was brought into play again on the Vaux front with similar loss to the attackingtroops. As the waves surged up the height to the fort an dfell back again, being cut to pieces by the French fire, mass- es of re-enforcements moved forward fron; Dieppe: behind the German lines to the northeast, and camne under the lire of the French heavy batteries. Un- der this fire the supporting troops broke and fled back to Dieppe. For each German attack on the fort the French threw forward a counter attack from a point to the west of the front, between it and Vaux vil- lage, effectively checking the progress - toward the fort. The German losses in the massed frontal attack are de- scribed in the official communication as "enormous."

It was undoubtedly one of the best observances of the impressive tradi- tion that has even been held. It was best, first of all, from the standpoint of Michigan spirit, Michigan to the core, which, unconfined, simultaneous- ly burst forth every few seconds from the assemblage of about 9,000 persons. Then, again, it was best from the standpoint of speakers. There was: Frank Murphy, powerful in voice and, convincing intensity, Dean Bates of the Law school, and three student speakers of unusual ability. Lastly, it was the best conducted Cap Night on record. Every detail was carried out to seeming perfection by the student councilmen, and the whole ceremony was the very epitome of' good management from the start. , Facts of the great naval bat- Hle as given out in official re- ports: Scene of the battle, the east. ern waters of the North sea near the coast of Denmark.
