: A'ASHINGTON. April li Tha ffport of
the special committee of the house ap
pointed to Investigate the report from tha
Postofflce department, printed under tha
Caption "Charges Conoemlng Members of
Congress," was mada to the bouae today
by Chairman McCall. Tha report la signed
by all seven members of tbe committee.
Tlia minority membera, however, append
supplemental viewa.
i tir Important phase of the report l a
finding regarding the connection of mem
bi t a v lth tbe business of the Postaflioe
department. This finding ia aa follows:
After a careful cunaldeiation of all casee
specified In the report numbered lilft t'.ho
Irport of the poatofhee committee on
'iiiarim against nemlwn of congress")
so tar aa tney relate to present members
. cf tha house of representatives, which the
committee asaume lo be the limit of their
jm ladiction, they have unanimously reached
the conclusion mat nothing haa appeared In
connection with aaid case that wouid jus
tuy the tindmg that any member of the
house of reprraentallves haa-profited finan
cially In the slightest degree, -or that any
member was guuty of Improper conduct in
uiiiiiet'tlon therewith, or that any member
has done in connection with said cases
anything that tlid not appear to be witr.ln
the Una of hla official duty according to
loiig-eala-bllahwi eusloni.
iialng reached this conclusion the com
mittee I eels coiiHtrained to add that In their
opinion It would be well to make aa form I
aa may be. and to restrain within tbe nar
rowest poaaible limits, the action of mem-
berann connection wnn poetomces and the
Details of other executive mutters, and that
the severance of membera trom work of
that (ha meter would augment the effi
ciency of the house of repreaentatlves.
In coucluKiou, the committee would de
sire the ettrrthir to the fart that tins In
quiry 1ms cuiu. upon the house suddenly
and without any notloe te its members
1 he'r correspondence has been brought te
the light with 4 lint department of the gov
ernment with which their relatione are
moat int nvKle in no Instance I it likely
that they expected the tetters which they
wrote would be published. These letters
were written under a great variety of clr
rurastancea. in hi ale. and some doubtless
by the privste secretary of a member: s.iroe
lit them formal and some of a personal
nature.
It le to the credit of tbe membership of
the house that corresnondenee of this char
acter thua collected together should con
tain eo little of an unfavorable character.
I ndouhtedly there are letters which were
carelessly written. The action In some
rasea waa not well considered. The state
ment found In some iuataii'-ea In some let
ters from the esutlve office, tnit a hat
was done was Aone as a favor to tha mem
ber, might well have been resented, hut
there ia nothing In any of the caers con
sidered that reflects upon the Integrity of
the membership of the house of reprennia

Chlneae exclusion and the probable ne
e ashy for legislative or executive action
tn view of the denunciation by China of
the txlatlng treaty, waa again today the
principal topis of discussion at the meet
ing of the cabinet Tbe president and his
advisers were In session for more than two
hours. They considered the subject In all
its phases, but reached no definite conclu
sion, chiefly, perhaps, because Attorney
from
General Knox has not been able yet to pre
pare hla opinion as to the legal status of
tbe scatter.
As soon as the attorney general shall
have decided whether In bis opinion exist
ing legislation relative to the exclusion of
Chl.tese will be valid or not on tbe expire
tlon of tbe treaty with China, some de
cisive steps will be taken. If It should be
determined that the legislation will lapse
with the treaty, then tbe oongress will pro
vide against general Chinese Immigration
t?r The Insertion 1n a pending appro M'Uvtlun
bill of aa amendment covering tbe subject..
It seems likely from the discussion of the
cabinet meeting that another treaty will
be negot'ated between the United States
and China. Indeed, some moves In that di
rection already have been made. While
the present treaty will be taken tor a basis
for negotiations. It is not probable that
some of the restrictions placed upon tha
Immigration of Chinese may be modified
as to merchants and the high class of Chi
nese. Coolie laborers and other classes of
Chinese labor will be excluded as rigorously
as they are by tbe existing laws.
Secretary Shaw discussed with the presi
dent and ether members of the cabinet the
plans for tbe isthmian canal payments. It
will be necessary, it la believed now, that

The books ana accounts of the Red Croas
society will be taken to tbe United States
capltol on Thursday, where they will be
examined by a committee of inquiry ap
pointed to look into tbe affairs of the so
ciety. The committee then will engage an
expert accountant to examine the books

The committee of inquiry met today.
hearing waa first had. at which a large
number of the lemonstrants made pic
looking to reorganisation as the only means
of restoring public confidence in the affairs
of the society. The remonstrants were lit
tle better satisfied with the suggestion that
an accountant be employed to look Into
the books. They demanded that the com
mittee personally act as the examiners.
Representative William Alden Smith and
Senator Redfield Proctor, for the commit
tee, declared that they could not consti
tute themselves a smelling committee and
Mr. Smith said that he should not take
part In any investigation which had as Its
part tbe holding of some person or persona

work, but If the investigation waa for the
purpose of reuniting the two factions into

Companion, he of the tnlgbty southpaw
and tbe wondrous snaky curve, stacked
up against Selee's J-year-olds of tbe Na
tional league reel M-day afternoon on the
Vinton street grounds, and for seven bully
Innings held their noses to the grindstone
in magnificent fashion. Just the same aa
be would bad they not bad tha glamour of
way-up professional ism wrapped round
about them. And then in the eighth in
ning, with more than a fighting show for
a victory, the borne team slipped a cog
and tbe stuff was off. Up to the fatal
eighth tha visitors bad found Companion
for three runs and eight hits, but be had
seven good men behind him and they took
care of tbe field In good shape. Omaha had
two runs and only needed one little one to
tie tbe thing up; but It waa not to be.
Evers started the trouble in tha eighth
with a alngle to the right paature and
tha next ball pitched Kilng landed in tbe
aame garden spot and put Bvers safe and
sound on the third base. Brown had two
strikes and when the next one soared wild
ha bit at it and lit out for first. The
ball went by Gooding through no fault
of his and Evers brought home his run and
with room to spare, while the rest of the
bunch moved up a notch all around. Then
a case of rattles struck the home team
for fair and the trick was turned.
Blaagkter follows Hero.
Slagle slugged It out to center and moved
Kllng and Brown up to third and oecond
respectively. Slagle kept monkeying and
waa thrown out at second. Casey was
out at first and it began to look as if the
slaughter might not be so great, after
all. But Companion could not get one in
the right place for Chance and he walked.
MoCarty laid the first one that came his
way over in the left field and Kllng and
Brown both scored. That made three.
This seemed to put the dope to Carter
and Instead of fielding the ball man fashion
he threw it In on the ground and while
It waa coming Chance made a break for
the plate. Of course Companion seised
the ball and gave It a wild ding to Gondlng
to catch Chance. Tbe latter hit the plate
all right, but the ball went twenty feet
over it and the tub or 400 of the faithful
who had braved the cold wind to be there,
groaned in agony as, in the melee. Mo
Carty trotted In with tha fifth run of the
Inning. Williams hit to left and Jones
went out from short to first, retiring the
side. But it was too late and the home
team went out In one, two three order, and
the game was done.
BUller la the Oaaaa.
The prettiest play of the afternoon was a
one-handed catch by Miller of a long fly in
left center. lusty couldn't stretch far
enough to get both hands on it, so be Just
reached up and gathered it in with hla
little mitt. Millar, by the way, did a few
things with his stick yesterday, too. in
spite of tha fact that he waa up against
the mighty Brown. Three hits, with a
total of five base a. waa his record, and one
tit the kind that maketh a fat average at
the end of the season. Brown'a work in the
box for the visiting team waa a magnifi
cent display of pitching skill and his old
friends in Omaha were aa. pleased with
hint, aa though ba were stifl one of Pa
Rourke boy. An unfortunate Incident of
the game waa the spiking of O'Neill by
aciiier in a elide for the plate In the flrnt
half of the fourth. The accident waa so
serious aa to nearly sever one of the Chi

of the leader of the democracy in our own
state. He did nut heal Lata to pander to
the lowest Instances of ih tenm iiprn and
socialists and write Into the platform of
his party the government ownership of
mines. The people asked for relief. Hill
gave them a barren and buncombe resolu
tion. Roosevelt started the niacninery in
motion, then brought them comfort and
happluesa.
It is said In some Quarters that he made
a mistake in bringing suits under the
Sherman law. His party framed and en
acted the laws which he found on the
statute book. It wus his duty to enforce
them. He has done ao. feurlesaly. The
result has called a halt on unlawful en
terprise It has improved buBHieaa tune.
It haa brought security to leariumate en
terprise. Now that the law Is upheld, our oppo
nents clamor for the commencement of a
general cruaade for the ruin of all cor
