WASHINGTON , Due. 3. The load
ers of the house * are nropnilnt ; to HI-OHM
with great , vigor the Imoortnnt busl-
IIPBH of the short session of congress
which convenes today. Already
considerable piollmlnaiy comniiut'e
work him been done on the important
measures the bill for the reduction
of the war rccvnuo taxes , the army
reorganization bill , the river nnd har
bor bill and several of tbo appropria
tion bills and tbo legislative mill will
start under a full head of steam. The
army reorganization Mil Is considered
particularly urgent owing to the po -
slblllty qf Its meeting strenuous oppo
sition after it roaches the senate nnd
it ) Is the intention of the leaders to
get It out of the way at the earliest
possible moment. It will bo reported
probably on Tuesday and will bo taken
up at once unless after further con
sultation It Is decided to let the legis
lative , executive and judicial appro
priation bill , which also will bo loady
on Tuesday , in ahead of It. The dem
ocrats will caucus on the army bill
on Monday and the Indications now
are that they will offer as a substitute
for : the permanent reorganization
measures a bill extending for two or
three ycaru the present law for a pio-
vlslonal army.
The bill to reduce the war revenue
taxes practically has boon completed
bywi the tcpuhlican members of the
ways and means committee and it will
bo submitted to the full committee on
'iiicsday unless in the meantime a cau
cus of the republicans should bo found
advisable. Some of the republican
members are not satisfied with the list
of articles relieved from taxation by
the bill and If too much opposition
becomes evident when the house con
venes on Monday the lenders probably
will call a conference or caucus for
the purpose of adjusting and harmon
izing dllferenccs.
On Thursday the Grout oleomargar
ine bill will como up as a special or
der , under the rule made nt the last
session. It imposes a tax of 10 cents a
pound on oleomargarine , biittorlno or
other manufactured butters colored
inhi Imitation of butter. It ban strong
backing from the dairy interests and
while it will meet with warm opposl- .
tlon from the Interests that are antag
onizing its passage , when it reaches
a vote its passage Is regarded as a
foregone conclusion. Two days , It Is
thought , will suffice for its consider
ation.
nlni Saturday , under a special order
made last session , will be devoted to
eulogies on the life , character and
public ) pcrvlcos of tbo Into Represen
tative Hornier of Pennsylvania , who

tion of being the member holding the
record for longest continuous service
and therefore entitled to the sobriquet ,
"Father of the House. "
No business will bo transacted at
the 'session today beyond the probable
reading of the president's message ,
owing to the deaths of I ho late Rep
resentative Daly of New Jersey and

Delaware , which occurred during the
recess. Their deaths , as well as the-
deaths of Senators Davis and Gear ,
will bo announced Immediately after
the roll is called and the house will
adjourn at once out of respect to their
memories.
Mr. Fryo expects to got up the ship
ping subsidy bill on Tuesday and If
not on that day then on Wednesday
nnd In doing this to have the Spnnnor
Philippine bill displaced. This will
be the beginning of the Important
work of the session and upon the mic-
eess or failure of the scheme may de
pend much of the future course of
proceedings for the entire session. In
order to accomplish this result It will
bo necessary first to got the consent
of the republican commitloo on order
of business and to this end a meeting
of that committee will bo bold after
the adjournment of the senate on
Monday afternoon. Mr. Fryo said to-
dapy that ho had already conferred
with a majority of the members of
that committee and that ho felt ns-
mircd ho would have no dlllllllculty In
securing their assent to the proposed
change.

Prof. HI or IIoIdH Vlrf-litlii Court Opln-
lor Wai Commendatory ,
WASHINGTON , Nov. 3. Prof.
Moore , chief of the weather bureau ,
has made a statement in which he
calls attention to the recent decision
of the United States court of appeals
at Richmond , Va. , involving the re
sponsibility of a vessel master for
damages by rain to a cargo of rice
discharged on an unsheltered wharf
at Charleston , S. C. , when the bureau
had predicted rain. Ho nnya that con
trary to widely published comments
the decision clearly stated that where
the storm warnings are brought to
the attention of vessel masters , it is
their < luty to take cognizance and
observe thorn , though the court said
the ordinary predictions of rain , snow
and moderate change of temperature
are loss reliable than almost anything
of which the general public Is expected
to take cognizance. Prof. Moore con
tends that the decision was a com
mendation instead of a condemnation
of storm warnings. The lureau , ho
says , considers that ono out of every
five forecasts of precipitation has failed
of verification , while there has not
boon a destructive marine storm any
where In the United States in over
six years that was not preceded by
the danger warnings , or a severe cold
wave of which farmers were not given
timely warning.

jy the burning of Its gas plant. If
the Standard Oil company's tanks
should now bo destroyed the citizens
would have to resort to tallow can-

plied the electric light plant , burst

Friday evening an attendant at the
Kearney gas plant was doing some

surrounding buildings The damage is
considerable , but is covered by insur-

Since the damage to the water pow
er the city has been depending on the
gas company for its lights and its de
struction by fire makes the question
of lights a very serious one.
