Any one who advocate tho unlawful killing of an officer of ths overnment of any civilized nation be cause of his official character or Who openly justifies such killing with in tent to secure the commission of any of the above offenses shall be fined from $300 to $5,000 and imprisoned from one to twenty years. Any person who conspires or advises any person to assault or kill, within. or without tho United States, tho chief magistrate of a foreign country because of his Official Character Hhftll ho rmnlalmrl as follows: If the attempt is made and death results such offender shall suffer death. If such attempt does not result in death tho punishment shall be a fine of $500 to $5,000 and impris onment from five to twenty-five years. If such attempt is not made the pun ishment shall be a similar fine and imprisonment from, one to five years. Section 11 provides that no person who is opposed to all good government or Is a member of any organization en tertaining or teaching such opposition phall be admitted into the United States and that any person who aids such person to enter shall bo fined from $500 to $5,000 and imprisoned from one to five years. Section 12 prohibits the naturalization of anarch ists and empowers the courts to in vestigate, and before issuing final pa pers to require the affidavit of tho ap plicant, affirming the truth of every material fact necessary for naturaliza tionk The last section of the bill provides that in all prosecutions under the first seven sections of tho act Ct should be presumed until the contrary is proved that the president or other officer was engaged in his official du ;ties at the time of the offense. J It is reported from Washington that ow, ir as tne aamimsiraiion is con cerned, tho Waller court-martial case' recently tried in Manila, is a closed in cident,, but tho Smith case will not be legally closed until it has been acted on by tho president. An Associated press dispatch says: "The significance of this statement Is that it is, still within the power of the president to return the case to the court for re consideration of the evidence adduced, even though the officer was acquitted ,nv run nnnrf na tho mnnn innnlt.. from Manila have indicated. The court could not be leerallv. finmnpilvi 'to change its findings, however, against its own judgment and its ad herence to a verdict of "not guilty" would stand despite the disapproval of tho president, which in that case would be simply as a rebuke to the court without affecting the legal status of tho accused." Oh June 10 the naval bill, carrying an appropriation of more than $78, 000,000, was passed. It includes pro visions for two first class battleships, two first class armored cruisers and two gunboats, but strikes out the house provision that one of each shall bo built at government yards. The bill to transfer certain forest reserves to the agricultural depart ment and to authorize the president to establish game and fish reserves, was defeated by the house on June 10. A motion made by Mr. Cannon to strike out the enacting clause was carried by 100 votes, and this killed the bill. F. B. Thurber, president of tho United States exporters' association, appeared as a witness before the sen ate committee on Cuban relations on June 11. A sensation, was produced when he acknowledged that his com pany had received money from the military government of Cuba, by au thority of Governor Wood, for the purpose of booming reciprocity. Ho also said he had received $2,500 from Mr. Havemeyer of the sugar .refining company, to be used for the same pur pose. On June 11 the senate committee on 'foreign relations decided to recom mend to the senate the ratification of the protocol extending for one year the time for the ratification of the Danish treaty for purchase of the Dan ish West Indies. This action is mado necessary by tho failure of the Danish parliament to act on tho treaty. A cablegram received on June 11 by Secretary Hay from Minister Conger at Pokln, confirms tho report that tho European nations have decided to scale down their Indemnities as sug gested by this government on tho claims on account of the Boxer upris ing in China. It is understood, how ever, that England and Japan do not share In the cutting down process. Fivo of tho members of the ways and means committee filed a minor ity report on tho bill proposing the killing of tho fur seals unless a modus Vivendi for their permanent protcc tioa is negotiated. These members severely condemn the proposed prac tice, contending that it is contrary to the universal custom of mankind. Rus sell, McColl, and Motcalf, republicans, and McCIellan and Newlands, demo crats, are the members signing tho report. Just before adjournment on June U the senate agreed to voto finally on tho NIcaraguan canal bill and all pending amendments on Thursday, June 19, tho voting to begin at 2 p. m. In his speech on the measure Mr. Fairbanks of Indiana said ho favored construction of thef canal by tho Pa nama route. Originally he had fav ored the Nicaraguan route, but an ex amination of tho subject had deter mined him to change his mind in favor of the Panama route, and he argued that not only would it bo cheaper in the first instance, but cheaper in operation after the canal was constructed. Representative Shallenberger of Ne braska made a speech on tho irri gation question. His speech is char acterized as the best speech mado on the measure, and one that will havo much to do with the final determina .tion, of the hill. Mr.- Shallenberger is heartily In favor of irrigating the arid lands of the west, and alleged that -the opposition to the bill was made for purely selfish motives. During the consideration of the isth mian canal question on June 12, Sena tor Morgan of Alabama discussed par ticularly the diplomatic phases of the question. An amendment Introduced by Mr, Fairbanks of Indiana provid ing for tho issue of bonds for the construction of the canal met with Mr. Morgan's vigorous opposition, he con tending that tho expense of the canal should be paid out of the treasury' current receipts. Mr. Morgan is greatly oposed to the Panama route, The disclosures made by former Governor Wood of Cuba was the themo of a conference at the White house on June 12. The administration is undecided as to whether it shall answer the charges or utterly ignore tnem. a close watch will be kept on the proceedings in the Cuban reciproc ity question.
