Colonel from Hiectlve I.lxl.
WASHINGTON , Feb. 4. Colonel Itobert S.
Crofton , Fifteenth Infantry , was arbitrarily
relieved today by order of the president. It
has been Iho desire ot tno War department
that this officer should leave the active
service , and efforts have been made during
the past two years to attain this end , first
through Intimations to the friends of Colonel
Crofton that his retirement would be granted
If applied for. and this falHng , through that
law which obliges an officer to retire If
found physically unfit for service toy a medi
cal board. The lost course was adopted
about nlno months ago , but also without
SUCC03B , the board finding tbo oillcer was In
good condition physically. Finally re
course has been had to the law which per
mits the president to retire an oillcer arbi
trarily when he shall have reached 02 years
ot ago. Colonel Crofton passed this mile
stone lust month , and the law has been ap
plied to his caso.
This is a most unusual proceeding , the labt
Instance of a forced retirement being In the
case of General Carr , who was torccd In
order to permit the promotion of oincers
below him In rank , fcolonel Crofton was In
command of the Fifteenth infantry while
the organization v. -stationed at Fort Sheri
dan , near Chicago , and was , whether Justly
or not , held responsible for the many Inci
dents In the history o that post which fur
nished matter for theicoujls. Colonel Crof
ton had a good war record. Ho- was made
major for gallant cbndu6t. He became
colonel ot tha Fifteenth , Infantry In October ,
18M , and Is now stationed at Fort Bayard ,
N. M. , where that command was removed
when the last chaugo In stations of troops
was mado. '

SENATOR HILL OPPOSES THE MEASURE

Tltiii * .
WASHINGTON , Feb. 4.-Tho session ot
the senate today was one ot unusual ac
tivity , with sharp colloquies and vigorous
speeches , which tlrow largo crowds to the
Eallnrles. The ball was set rolling early
In the day when Mr. Morrtll endeavored to
pass the bill prohibiting the use ot Intoxi
cants in the capltol building. This aroused
the opposition of Mr. Hill ot Now York , who
denounced the busybodles and inlschlet-
makcra Inspiring this class of legislation.
The senator spoke for the fullest enjoyment
of Individual liberty consistent with the
common good. The speech was not only
notable for the vigor which Mr. Hill threw
Into It , but also for Its effect In prolonging
the debate until 2 o'clock , when the bill
was displaced by the Nicaragua bill. The
bill was committed to conference.
Mr. Lodge , In charge of the measure ,
adopted this course as a result of urgent
appeals for a modification of the bill. Be
fore this was done , however , n warm por-
conal and political colloquy occurred be
tween Mr. Lodge and Mr. Chandler on one
hand and Mr. Gorman on the other. The
Maryland senator took exception to recent
suggestions of ttoamship and corporate Influ
ence and declared thcro would bo ample op
portunity within the next year for republican
senators to resist the corporate Influences
at work after March 4. In reply Mr. Chand
ler assorted that the Maryland senator had
for the first tlnio turned an Immigration
debate Into partisan channels. Mr. Vllas
added another day to his speech against the
Nicaragua canal bill , and had not concluded
when the senate adjourned.
Regarding the sale of liquor In the capl
tel .Jlr. Mori-Ill said there was much feeling
against It. lie had Just received a letter
stating the writer had seen a man coming
from the building drunk. Whllo there was
some misapprehension as to the existence
of ordinary saloons In the building , yet the
public felt that If an evil existed congress
should make a strict prohibition.
Mr. Sherman asked It It was right that
any part of this great public building should
bo used for the sale of liquor. Mr. Sher
man did not bellevo the public idea that
saloons existed hero was Justified. Thcro
was nothing like an ordinary bar here. Hut
the laws had been made stringent , so that
when a man wanted whisky he would have
to go outside the capltol to got It.
MR. HILL SPEAKS.
Mr. Hill came Into the debate at this
point , speaking with much vehemence
against the "busybodles" and "mischief-
makers" who libelled congress and Inspired
this class1 of legislation. Ho had received
many letters , ho said , protesting against
"this abomination In our national capltol. "
Such statements were false. No such thing
as a bar existed here. Mr. Hill read In sar
castic tones a letter appealing to him to
aid In driving saloons from the capltol and
thus "raise the standard of national honor. "
"Has our national honor como to this , "
exclaimed Mr. Hill , "that It depends upon
whether we take a glass ot ale or beer -with
our meals ? "
This appeal to national honor , ho added ,
was becoming a common device every time
some small question presented Itself. But
there was no question of national honor
Involved In this imattcr. "Thsro are no
saloons hers ; there Is , no drunkenness here ;
I have never seen a drunken man In the
capitol ; I state fgr the benefit of these agi
tators that It is a libel on congress to say
that saloons are here and drunkenness ex
ists here. It is absolutely false. "
The discussion next took a somewhat
humorous turn. Mr. Chandler , Mr. Galllnger
and Mr. Gray exchanging sallies as to the
effect of the bill in restricting the personal
comfort of senators.
The roll call on Mr. Hill's motion to com
mit was followed with great Interest. It
was a tie at first , but the summoning of
senators defeated the motion : yeas , 27 ;
nays , 30.
As the vote was announced Mr. Hill re
marked : "And having brought the bill before
the senate , senators can now proceed to
take"a glass of beer. "
He went on to speak of the hypocrisy of
the bill. It was soon evident the senator
would talk against this measure until 2
o'clock , when the bill would bo cut off by
the Nicaragua canal bill. He spoke of the
extremes to which prohibition legislation
had been carried , and the oxcesslvo punish
ment indicted. The violation of an excise
law had. ho said , become -worse than murderer
or burglary. This sort ot legislation would
not do. It was unwise and unnecessary.
Under it the venerable senator from Ver
mont ( Morrlll ) could he taken out of the
senate on a charge of violating the excise
laws. Under It senators would find on reachIng -
Ing the cliamber some day that one-half of
their associates were in the police court for
violation of the excise laws. Mr. Hill talked
up to 2 o'clock , when the bill was displaced
and the Nicaragua canal bill was taken
up.
Before proceeding with the debate , Mr.
Morgan , democrat ot .Alabama . , presented a
resolution requesting the president for In
formation as to the arrest of Carpar Uetan-
courtat Havana , whether a demand for his
release had been made , etc. The resolution
was agreed to ,
IMMIGRATION BILL.
Mr. Lodge endeavored to have the canal
bill glvo way temporarily to permit action
on the conference report on the Immigra
tion bill. An objection being made , Mr.
Ledge moved to take up the Immigration re
port and the motion prevailed , 35 to 13.
Mr. Hill appealed to Mr. Lodge , In charge
of the bill , to allow the bill to ho recom
mitted for modifications In the age and Il
literacy provisions. Mr. Chandler seconded
the appeal , saying a recommittal would se
cure the desirable end of uniting political
parties on Immigration legislation. Mr ,
Ledge yielded to the appeals and thereupon
moved the senate disagree to the conference -
enco report.
Mr. Gorman , democrat of Maryland , made
an emphatic protest against the recent
statement of Mr. Ledge that the opposition
to the bill was duo to corporation and
steamship Influenco. Ho hoped the sen
ator ( Lodge ) would haye occasion during
the next year of opposing the power nt
corporations , It was corporate power which
: md largely controlled In the selection of
: ho president for the next four years ,
Mr. Chandler said the language of the
Maryland senator Implied a threat that If
this bill was not shaped to suit him then
ministering would bo resorted to. This was
an extraordinary statement. This senator
; Gorman ) had for the first tlmu Injected
fiarty politics Into the Immigration ques
tion.
tion.Mr. . Carter , republican of Montana , criti
cised the provisions against the Immigration
of Canadians across the border and said the
provisions , if carried out , would warrant
retaliation against the act.
The motion to disagree to the conference
report was then adopted without division.
The debate on the Nlcaraguan bill was
then resumed , Mr. Vllas speaking In oppo
sition.Mr. . Vllas had not concluded when ,
at G:15 : p. in , , the senate went Into executive
session and soon after adjourned ,

WASHINGTON. Feb. 4. The dully ses
sions of the republican members of the
ways nnd means committee , which have
born In progress for two weeks , have
brought the tariff bill , which Is to
bo laid before the next congress , to n singe
where the character of the measure can bo
somewhat gauged and where certain of I ho
most Important schedules arc definitely
fixed. In the conferences the tariff makers
have dealt largely with the Keiirral char
acter of tlip schedules which they hove had
under consideration. Four schedules have
now been fairly completed the chemical ,
agricultural , \\lncs and spirits , nnd rarthcn
and glassware schedules. Today's meeting
was the most Important of the series , for It
resulted In the framing of the agricultural
schedule , which was made a rc-cnactment
of the MoKlnley law with few changes ex
cept on unimportant products.
The moit Important step In connection
with this was the establishment of rates
of $5 a head on cattle moro than 1 jear
old nnd of 25 per cent ad valorem on cattle
valued at more than $20 a head. The Me-
Kluley rates on other live stock , Including
the rate of $2 on cattle of 1 year old or
less , are restored , The Wilson rates were
20 per cent nd valorem on live stock , and
while the new duty ot $5 on cattle docs not
reach the McKlnlcy figure ot $10 on cattle
moro than 1 year old , It Is expected that
with the ad valorem on the moro valuable
grades It will prove adequate to shut out
Mexican cattle. It Is against the Mexican
stock that the increase is tuado directly
on the representations of western cnttlo-
men that their business had been ruined
by tlio Importations from Mexico under the
Wilson law , which amounted to moro than
200,000 head.
Much Intertst centered upon barley , which
the committee puts back to the McKlnley
duty of 30 cents n bushel , because the far-
mom cortcided : that the Wilson tariff had
turned over the market Into the hands of
the Cunndlars , while the maltsters who
have been using Canadian barley have made
a haul fight against any Increase.
The McKlnley rates have been restored
on fruits and berries , mainly for the bene
fit ot the fruit growers of the Pacific coabt.
Thu fruit exchanges of the country had prepared -
pared a schedule of rates below the McKln
ley law , although above the Wilson rates ,
but they did not succeed In having this
adopted.
Among the products In the agricultural
scliFdulo which are returned to the McKlnley
rates nre breadstufls and rice , dairy prod
ucts , potatoes and starch , castor beans and
ilaxsoed , meats and meat products , egga and
poultry , vegetables and salt. The demand
of the farmers for the McKlnley rate of
$1 a ton on hay. Instead of the Wilson rate
of S2 was planted.
Chicory Is placed at 1 cent n pound , In
accotd.uico with the requests of the growers
In the central states , who believe that they
can capture the home market with pro
tection.
Kates on oranges have not been fixed
yet , but It has been decided to change the ,
classification and make the rates higher than'
those ot the McKlnley bill for tha benefit
ot the California interests.
In the chemical schedule many ot the
Wilson rates Will be retained. The Wilson
duties on soaps and on sodas and kindred
chemicals , which are the raw materials of
soap , are left unchanged. The present rates
onoils , Including castor oil , also will be
retained , except where changes are made
necessary by the restoration of duties on
the raw materials which enter Into them ,
as In the ease of linseed oils. There will
be but slight changes In the rates on ] > alnts
and dye stuffs and their constituent ele
ments. The duties on borate of lime will
be 2 cents per pound , on refined borax 3
cents , boraclc acid 3 cents.
The duties on lead In ores are placed at
1 cent a pound , on pig lead 2 cents , on white
lead and lead acetates 2 % cents.
The committee has decided to retiln the
Wilson rates on wines and spirits through
out the wine and spirits schedules. This
schedule of the Wilson act was generally
higher In Its rates than in the McKlnley
acts ,
The committee 1 as devoted time to the con
sideration of schedules of manufactured iron
and steel , but has not perfected them yet.
In the cotton schedules there will bo
few changes , except in rates on finery , yarns
and costly fabrics.
The changes In the iron and steel schedules
will bo limited to a few specialties , like
cotton , ties , on which McKlnley duties will
bo re-established , on tin plate , which has
not been settled , and some forms of tube
steel and surgical Instruments.
No other schedule has given the commlt-
tee so much trouble as the one which in
cludes earths , earthenware and glassware.
It has been claimed by all the pottery and
glass Interests that the Wilson law has
proved destructive to their Interests , and
that no system of ad valorem levies could
properly protect them. Accordingly tlio
committee- has determined to adjust tlio
items of the schedule to such specific duties
as will be equal to the duties of the McKln
ley law , most of which were ad valorem.
On account of the decorative features of
such wares , which often are the chief cle
ment In their value , It Is particularly diffi
cult to adjust a satisfactory specific rate.
Plato class has been arranged as follows :
Under 10x24 Inches , S cents per square foot
( present rate , 5 cents ) ; above 10x24 and not
exceeding 24x30 Inches , 12 cents [ present
rate , 8 cents ) ; above 21x30 and not exceed
ing 21xW Inches , the present rate of 22V >
cents ; all above 24xCO , the present rate of
35 cents.
Lumber will bo Iho uoxt subject which
will engage the committee , Throughout
the work the policy of establishing specific
rates wherever It was found possible to tub-
stltuto them tor ad valorem has been fol
lowed. The Interests of farmers , it Is stated ,
have been particularly observed In fixing
duties for the purpose of protection. On the
other hand the increases on manufactured
good ? , most of thorn , have been on higher
grades of goods and those which are con
sidered luxuries.

the opinion of the commissioner of the fed

to whether or not registers and receivers ot
land ofllccs are entitled to fees for each
quarter section entry made by desert land
states under- the Carey net donating 1,000,000
acres of desert lands to such states as would
agree to reclaim them. The case which was
decided today was the appeal of local officers
nt Evanston , Wyo. , from the commissioner's
decision that under the Carey act no fees
could be charged for the reason that its
framcrs Intended that the states should not
ba obliged to pay 1 cent under any pretext
for such land. The secretary took n dif
ferent view of the law and says that for all
tracts of ICO acres the stale shall pay $1
each to the register and receiver. Secretary
Francis today rendered decisions In the
following land cases :
Nebraska Reuben Churning against Mary
Crum. Alliance district , commissioner's de
cision confirmed ; land awarded to defendant
