IMPORTANT MEASURE COMES UP
War Revenue and Ship Subsidy Itills Will
Kecelve Consideration Speech by
Towne on Philippine Question Awaited
With Keen Interest.
WASHINGTON" , Jan. 28. A variety
of subjects , including appropriation
bills , the war revenue reduction , ship
subsidy bill and to some extent the
Philippine question will claim the at
tention of the senate the coming week.
Monday Mr. Towne will speak on.
the problems involved in the s govern
ment cf the Philippines. There Is
somewhat more than usual interest in
this speech , not only because of Mr.
Towne's reputation as an orator and
the fact that it will be his only speech
in the senate on a political subject ,
but because of increased interest in the
Philippine question aioused by the
president's request of the senate for
early legislation on this subject. It
does not appear probable that the
Minnesota senator's speech will call
out otner speeches immediately on this
subject because even the senators who
would like to see legislation during
this session admit the impossibility of
taking up the matter seriously until
the report of the Tatt commission can
be printed , or so long as there are
other pressing questions before the
senate. Still , straggling references to
the subject are not improbable at any
time during the remainder of the ses
sion.
Senator Aldrich , chairman of the fi
nance committee , has given. notice
that the will ask the senate to take
up the war revenue bill early in the
week. The understanding Is that he
will press that question to the exclu
sion of all other bills , except appro
priation bills. Being a revenue meas
ure , it will take precedence over all
other measures.
There is no real opposition to the
war revenue bill , but it appears proo-
able that there will be soma discus
sion of it as an easy means of delaying
consideration of the subsidy bill. If
there is opportunity the subsidy bill
will be taken up , but it is not expected
that anything more definite will occur
in this connection during the present
week than the making of speeches.
The week in the house is likely to be
monopolized by appropriation bills.
Seven 'of the fourteen general appro
priation bills have already passed the
, house , namely , the executive , legisla
tive and judiciary , pension , military
academy , Inuiuli , naval , river and har
bors and District of Columbia bills.
Three others , the postomue , agricul
ture and .fortifications bills , have been
reported to the house , and the remain
ing four , the army , consular and dip
lomatic , sundry civil and general de-
ficiene } % are still in the committees
having them in charge. The three
reported to the house and the consu
lar and diplomatic , which Is practic
ally completed , probably will be dis
posed of during the week. Whatever
time remains will be occupied with
the bill to promote the efficiency of
the revenue < utter service , which has
been made a continuing special order ,
not , however , to interfere with ap
propriation bills.
The postoffice appropriation bill is
likely to be made the occasion of
much debate. All the questions rais
ed by the report of joint postal com
mission are likely to be dragged into
the arena. An effort undoubtedly
will be made to continue the appro
priations for pneumatic tube service ,
which were eliminated from the bill
and there probably will be the usual
fight on the appropriations for spe
cial mail facilities.

BOERS MAKE THINGS LIVELY
Capture One Supply Train and Inflict
Hoivy CuHuiiltlcs.
LONDON , Jan. 28. The war ofllce
has received from the commander-in-
chief in South Africa a dispatch
dated Pretoria , January 2G , reporting
numerous engagements , the following-
ing being the most important :
"Cunningham was engaged at Mid-
dlefontein and Kopperfontein yester
day with Delarey's force. Bablngton ,
while moving north from Ventorsdorp ,
threatened the enemy's Hank , where
upon the Boers retired west. Cun
ningham's casualties were two officers
wounded , four men killed , and thirty-
seven , wounde'd.
"In the engagement at Llehtenburg ,
January 17 , some yeomanry were cap
tured. These have since been releas
ed , with the exception of a major and
three men. No details are yet at
hand.
"Smith-Dorrien had -a successful en
gagement of five hours , while on the
march 'from Wonderfontein to Carolina
lina , where the Boers had lately been
concentrating. The enemy were in
considerable strength and held the
river , but were driven out. Our
losses were one officer killed and two
officers and thirteen men wounded. "
Lord Kitchener confirms the report
that a British train with troops and
military stores on board was waylaid
and captured at Slijklipp , near Four
teen Streams , last Friday , but says
the Boers retired on the arrival of
the armored train sent in pursuit.
fAVORS THE SPOONER BILL.
Filipinos Uurgo Legislation for Perman
ent Form of Government.
MANILA , Jan. 28. The executive
committee of the fed&ral party has
filed a petition requesting the Philip
pine commission to urge upon Presi
dent McKinley that the passage of the
Spooner bill by congress is an urgent
necessity , as the progress of the archipelago
pelage demands an authority which
can legislate and control the incor
poration of concerns , regulate mining
claims , dispose of public lands and
perform other functions not vested ia
either the military or executive au
thorities.
The petitioners state that the time
is ripe for a general civil government ,
the establishment of which will win
over those favoring the insurrection
while , at the same time , it will encour
age the natives to subscribe in favor
of the settled government in the Phil
ippines under American sovereignty.
Therefore they urge that the Spaoner
bill , which empowers President McKin
ley , in his discretion , to declare the
insurrection ended and to establish a
civil government , be passed by the
present congress.

the Republic from Henrietta , I. T. ,
says :
Deputy United States Marshal Grant

Dopew Supports His Views in Character
istically Brilliant Fashion.
,
THE FLOOR AND GALLERY APPLAUD
An Appeal for the Upbuilding of Ameri
can Merchant Marine Discussion of
the Problem * of Transportation In
teresting.
WASHINGTON , Jan. 26. Senator
Depew of New York today delivered
in the senate a characteristically forc
ible and eloquent address in support
of the shipping bill. The address ,
which occupied just an hour , was in
the nature of an appeal for the up
building of the American merchant
'marine by the granting of subsidies ,
S3 provided for in the pending meas
ure. His discussion of the problems
of transportation which now confront
American manufacturers and Ameri
can fanners was notably Interesting
and effective. The peroration in
which he urged that the American
flag be restored to the mastheads of
the freight-carrying ships of the Uni
ted States was a brilliant piece of or
atory and elicited cordial applause
from the senators on the floor and the
crowds in the galleries. Little prog
ress was made with the Indian ap
propriation bill. The last hour of the
senate day was consumed In the pass
age of private pension bills.
Senator Depew began with a sur
vey of the country's first century of
development , pointing out the im
mense material progress that had been
made in agriculture and manufac
tures , how our exports had grown to
? lf 00,000,000 annually in excess of our
imports- and how the internal lines
of communication had developed into
the most comprehensive in the world.
But he insisted that the development
of the country had been one-sided.
While prepared to feed and clothe
half of the world outside or the Uni
ted States , we had developed our
transportation system only to our own
coast line and had allowed our mer
chant marine to remain undeveloped ,
so that there was actually a greater.
tonnage of American vessels built in
this country for the foreign trade in
1807 than in 1900. Said Mr. Depew :
"The farm , the factory and the
mine , have filled the warehouses and
docks of our Atlantic and Pacific
coasts with their contributions to na
tional wealth , employment and the
happiness of our people , and left
their transportation to Europe , to
Asia , to Africa , to South America and
to Australia , to the greed of foreign
ship owners , to the protection of for
eign flags and to the hazards of. for
eign wars.
"A general collision , which is often
predicted in the European newspa
pers , ani ng the great powers of Eu
rope , in the mad haste of their na
vies and armies to outstrip each oth
er in the acquisition of spheres of in
fluence in Asia and Africa , would act
upon the United States , who might
be simply a spectator of the conflict ,
as an embargo upon our coast. We
would be shut up with ourselves as
absolutely as if the navies of the
world were blockading our ports. "
Looking to the remedy foi- the pres
ent stagnation in the Ameiican mer
chant marine. Mr. Depew said the
cry of "free ships' " had long ago been
discounted. It was not to be consid
ered as a remedy , for it left out of
the question the development of an
American shipbuilding industry. The
plan of discriminating duties , he said.
was also impracticable. France had
tried it and teeii forced to repeal its
law within a year. No nation would
submit to discriminating duties with
out retaliating against us , and no na
tion like ouis , which is more of a
seller than a buyer , can afford to
provoke such retaliation and thus
stimulate production in Russia , In
dia. Egypt , against our cotton and our
corn. The speaker's conclusion was
that there remained only the sub
sidy as a practical solution of the
problem.
MAY MlEXfRA SESSION.
Message of I'ri-slilont Sets ttie Senator ! .
to St > priilatu'.r.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. The brief
recommendation in the message of the
president sent to the senate today.
urging immediate legislation in the
interest of the Philippines , caused
general surprise among the senators
and speculation on the probability of
au extra session of congress immedi
ately after March 3.
Sc-nators generally have received ,
they say. no intimation from the
White House that an extra session
would be desirable , but they unite in
saying no Philippine legislation is
possible during the remainder of the
present term.
The Spooner bill , vesting all power
of the government in the Philippines
archipelago in the president , is the
only Philippines general bill. It is
believed that whenever an earnest ef
fort is made to secure legislation
bearing on this subject much time
will lip required. Some senators also
express the opinion that legislation
: ; ; > lie necessary in the Cuban situ- '
atton , ami while there are differences
of opinion , all agree that if such ac
tion would become necessary it would
be impossible to secure it at this ses
sion.
The Ture Food Bill.
WASHINGTON , Jan. 20. Strong
efforts are making to induce Speaker
Henderson to fix an early date for the

bill.The measure his attracted wide
spread interest among grocers , drug
gists , etc. It aims to prevent adultera
tion of food and drugs. Some opposi
tion has developed among dealers in
crtain lines , but it is understood
amendments will be accepted which Jt
s claimed will remove these objec-
liocs.

the fighting territory. The bill orig
inally deferred taxation for a year.
The commissioners adopted an
amendment providing that land own

surrection , after March and prove that

HEIRESS IN NEBRASKA.
Leaves Uer Ilnsband in Omaha and Goes
to Kushvllle.
NEW YORK , Jan. 25. Relatives of
Mrs. Schindler-Siebert look to Ne
braska to clear up the mystery of her
disappearance. She was one of the
prettiest girls in Hoboken society and
a favorite daughter of the wealthy Dr.
Schindler. Several weeks ago she
suddenly disappeared. Police aid was
invoked without success. Her father
was much troubled over the matter
and died last week. In his will he
left her $40,000.
John Schindler , her brother , has
just succeeded in tracing her. He
found she had gone with William
Siebert of New York , who also has
money. The two were married and
went to Omaha. There they quarreled
and separated. The' groom went to
Mussels Hill. Mont. , and the bride to
Rushville , Neb. , where she is now.
Mr. Schindler today received a letter
from Siebert detailing some of the
facts.
Schindler says : "We are all won
dering why my sister does not com
municate with us. She surely must
know by this time that father is dead
and thtit she is his heiress. My broth
er-in-law wants some of the money
and refuses to interfere with his
wife's actions. "

' Voting- John D. Rockefeler , In his : r * >
address to a Bible class In Tarrytpwn

there were a good many things ,
better than money in this world , ,

when he was in college his most In
