THE TWO HOUSES
WHAT THE FIFTY-EIGHTH CON
GRESS HAS DONE.
THETWO IMPORTANT SUBJECTS
Panama Canal and Cuban Reciprocity
Considered of Greatest Interest
Dills of Public Nature and the
Amount of Appropriations.
WASHINGTON Tho Important
legislative ncoompllshmontB or tho
sessions ot tho fifty-eighth congress
woro confined to two subjects Cuba
and Panama. Tho reciprocity treaty
botweon tho now island ropubllc and
tho United States, Initiated by Pres
ident McKlnloy, wns inado opcratlvo
by legislative enactment. Tho ratifi
cation of n treaty by tho senate and
tho subsequent Initiation of legisla
tion for tho government of tho canal
ono commit tho United Statoa to tho
construction of tho Pnnnma cannl,
connecting tho waters ot tho Atlantic
and Pacific oceans.
Tho special session, now denominat
ed the first session, was called for
tho purpose of carrying out tho plcdgo
of tho nation to Cuba. Tho Panama
development wns ono which nroso sud
denly and received decisive unci imme
diate action at tho hands of President
Roosevelt and tho senate.
Tho conservatism incident to tho
approaching presidential campaign, ns
usual, was manifested by thoso re
sponsible for tho nets of tho national
legislative body. Tho annual Biipply
bills wcro mado up with nn cyo to
economy. Incidentally they woro pass
ed with greater dispatch than hereto
fore has been tho cobo.
Tho senate ratified tho treaty nego
tiated with Cuba to carry out the
terms of tho Piatt amendment.
It also ratified tho Chlneso commer
cial treaty, which provides for two
open ports In Manchuria.
Chairman Hemenwny of tho house
commlttco on appropriations, in a
Btatcmcnt compiled under his direc
tion, gives tho total of all supply bills
(subject to slight changes in pending
bills) as $507,802,324, to which must
bo added $81,971,820 for Interest on
tho public debt. The estimated reve
nues nro $704,472,0G0. By theso fig
ures tho expenses are $22,000,000 less
than tho revenues. The estimates of
tho various departments, on which tho
appropriation bills woro based, ex
ceeded tho total estimated revenues
by $42,815,8G2. No river and hnrbor
bill, making provision for now pro
jects of Improvement In the rivers nnd
harbors or tho country, was undertak
en. Llkewlso no omnibus measure,
carrying provision for now public
buildings, was allowed to pass.
Soveral amendments havo been
mado to facilitate tho administration
of tho public land laws. Tho allot
ment in severalty or lnnds owned col
lectlvoly by Indian tribes In vnrlous
sections of tho country hns been pro
vided for In n number of acts. A Btop
in tho direction of world peaco has
been taken through the formation of
nn American group affiliated with the
Inter-Parllamcntary union for interna

ognition ot this "group" by tho pass
nga of a Joint resolution extending an
Invitation to tho union to hold its next
nnnual meeting nt St. Louis and ap
propriating $50,000 for the expenses or
tho same. A Joint resolution was en
acted providing for tho transportation
aboard a government vessel of not ex

Hungarian Emigration Law.
Vienna Tho Associated Press Is In
formed on tho highest authority that
Emperor Francis Joseph as expressed
great surprise at tho opposition ovokod
both In Hungary nnd United Statoa
against the Hungarian emigration
law. His majesty attributes this op
position to a misapprehension of the
roal tenor of tho measure. Tho am
poror has further declared his con
viction that when tho terms of the
law are fully and completely under
stood the opposition to It will disappear.
ROSEBUD BILL IS SIGNED.
President Gives Approval to the Open

signed tho Rosebud reservation bill
Saturday. In honor of tho event
Congressman Burkett presented every
man In tho white house offices with
a rosebud Tho delegation then wont

was learned that tho land would bo

as was used in opening tho Kiowa nnd
Comnnche lands in Oklahoma. Pros
pective settlers may register at Bone
steel, Fairfax and Chnmbcrlnln until
tho mtddlo of May, when tho drawing
will occur at Cambcrlalln. Full par
ticulars will bo given to tho newspa
pers soon.
Tho plans Tor tho opening or tho
reservation are not yet completed, but
It Is expected that arrangements will
bo mado so that the opening will take
placo by July 1 next It Is llkoly
that tho plan to bo followed will be
tho Ramo as that carried out In tho
Kiowa and Comanche opening In Ok
lahoma In 1901, when tho claimants
wcro registered nnd tho order in which
tho entries to be mado determined by
a drawing of tho names. This meth
od, as carried out in Oklahoma by
Commissioner Richards of tno general
land office, Is generally commonded at
tho Interior department, whero It is
desired to prevent such wild scenes
as transpired 'at previous openings.
Thero aro 245 quarter sections of pub
lic domain embraced In tho territory

IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE.
Will Clear Calendar Preparatory to
Adjournment. ,
WASHINGTON Tho timo of tho
senate tho present week will be de
voted wholly to clearing tho calendar,
preparatory to adjournment, which
most sonators still say will occur dur
ing tho present week. 'Thero rcmaliiB
only ono appropriation1 bill to be
passed by the senate, that for tho mili
tary academy. A number of tho sup
ply bills aro still in conference, how
ever, nnd it Is expected thero will bo
mcro or less discussion of coherence
reports. The general calendar Is very
heavy and' an effort will bo made to
pass as ninny of these measures as
possible.
Thero are a number or provisions
In tho mllltnry academy bill which
will bo debated at some length. This
bill probably will bo taken up tomor
row, but It may givo way to other
business, Including a speech by Mr.
Cullom on tho country's foreign nf
fairs, and another by Mr. Bacon on
tho subject of tho tariff and trusts.
There also will bo some speeches dur
ing tho week on tho desert land bill,
and It 'is probablo that tho conference
roport on the canal zono government
bill will lead to debate.
AS TO WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Cabinet Considers Advisability of Gov
ernment Control.
WASHINGTON. Tho most Import
ant matter considered at the cabinet
meeting Tuesday was that looking to
tho control by tho government ot wire
less telegraphy. Tho subject was
broached by Secretary Hay in connec
tion with the communication received
recently by this government from Rus
sia. Thus far wireless telegraphy has
not figured In International nffalrs,
and -no conventions covering Its uso
havo been considered. It is believed
that sooner or Inter tho subject will
bo taken up by diplomats, with a view
to reaching an international agree
ment upon it.
Tho discussion was tentative, In a
measure, and definite decision was
reached. It is likely, however, that
In tho near future some action will
bo taken that will provide for a proper
government supervision of the wire
less system of telegraphy.

THREE EXECUTED
TRIO OF CAR BARN BANDITS ON
THE SCAFFOLD.
NIEDERIVIEYER THE FIRST TO GO
Marx and Van Dine Quickly Follow
All Three of the Murderers Keep
Their Nerve and Show No 81gns of
Weakening.
CHICAGO, 111. Compelled to te
cnrrlcd to the scaffold, Peter Nleder
meyer, leader ot the car barn ban
dltB.iwns hanged here Friday at 10:35
o'clock. Weak and pale but with a
slight suggestion of a smile, tho ban
dlt failed to carry out his oft-repeated
boast that he would die before reach
ing the gallows.
Hanging of his nsosclates, Gustnx
Marx and Harvey Vnn Dine, quickly
followed:
Although It was expected at first
that Nlcdormeyer would be able to
walk to the gallows with but little or
no assistance, it was found nt the last
moment that he was too weak.
Straps were placed over his ankles,
nnd Just nbovo his knees. He wns
then placed on a truck and wheeled
to one of the floors of the jail, after
which he was carried to tho scaffold,
and placed In a chair on the trap.
He was not asked the customary ques
tion If he had anything to say, and tho
rope was quickly plnccd about his
neck. He settled his neck Into the
noose nnd the trap was sprung.
The body Bhot through tho trap,
nnd for twenty minutes after It
moved convulsively, the physicians nf
first being of the opinion that he was
strangling to death, that the rope had
been plnccd too low. After examina
tion, however, the physicians an
nounced thnt his neck had been brok
en. Niedcriqeyer appeared on tho scaf
fold wearing a red rose, but without
a coat. Previous to the execution and
during the rending of this death war
rant, Ncldermeyer snatched the paper
rrom the chief deputy's hands nnd
placed It In n "pocket and made re
marks in anger at this time and once
or twice when he was being taken to
the scaffold.
Shortly after 11 o'clock Marx was
led to the 'icalTold. Neatly dressed
and with n white rose ns a button
lore, which hnd been given him by his
little sister the night before. He was
pale, but his courage never left him
while he stood on the scaffold. He
made no ctatement. Two priests- of
the Roman Catholic church, of which
Marx had become a member, accom
panied him to tho gallows. Ho re
peated a litany with them, kissed a
crucifix, nffor which the jailer sprang
the trap at 11:17. lie was pronounced
dead at 11:34, his neck having been
broken.
Harvey Vnn Dine wns hanged a
short Interval after his companion
Marx, a few days before a bitter ene
my of Van Dine, but now the best of
friends in their Inst hours of life.
Incidents In Vnn Dlne's execution
were similar to those that character
ized the execution of Marx. Like
Marx. Van Dine was composed pre
ceding his execution.

A HEART STORY.
Folsom, S. Dak. In theso days
when so many sudden deaths are re
ported from Heart Failure and vari
ous forms of Heart Disease, it will bo
good news to mnny to learn that thero
Is a never fniling remedy for every
form of Heart Trouble.
Mrs. H. D. Hydo or this place, was
troubled for years with a pain in her
heart which distressed her a great
deal. She had tried many remedies
but had not succeeded in finding any
thing thnt would help her until at last
sho began a treatment of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and this very soon relieved
her and she has not had a single pain
or any distress In the region of tho
heart since. Sho says: "I cannot say
too much pralso of Dodd's Kidney
Pills. They are the greatest heart
medicine I have ever used. I was
troubled for over threo years with a.
severe pain In my heart, which en
tirely disappeared after a short treat
ment or Dodd's Kidney Pills."

they expend all day In their vocations,
though they would bo shocked and or
fended if nnyono wero to tell them,
so. They think that physical dissipa

Bapplng. But men and women of ex
emplary moral habits dissipate their
vitality In a hundred ways. They in
dulge in wrong thinking; they worry;
they Tret; they fear this, that, and
tho other imaginary thing; and they
carry their business homo with them,
and work as hard mentnlly after busi
ness hours as during them. Success,
