The first attempt at filibustering at this tession took place in the Houss Friday n a Democratic endeavor to defeat the jrovision of thp urgent deficiency bill vaiving the eight-hour day for .foreign aborers on the Panama canal. The imendment was placed in the bHl after nuch maneuvering. Secretary Wilson tame up for censure because of his re- luest that more funds be given the De- > artment of Agriculture for meat inspec- ion. The Senate was not in session. The House Saturday passed the urgent leficiency appropriation bill , with the tmendment waiving tha eight-hour day 'or alien labor on the Panama canal. The 'ote 01 the amendment was 120 to 108. By special order the pension calendar vas cleared , 2G2 bills being disposed of n sixty-five minutes. After reading Mr. Mann's omnibus bridge bill , making it un- inished business for Monday , the House tdjourned. There was no session of the Senate. _ * - The House Monday passed a resolution jaling on the President to furnish infor- nation as to the existence of an allegad tgreement in violation of the interstate lommerce law between the Pennsylvania , Baltimore and Ohio , Norfolk and West- ; rn , Chesapeake and Ohio , Northern Cen- .ral and Philadelphia , Baltimore and { Vashington Railroad companies. Unani- nous consent was given to begin on Tues- iay the consideration of the Heuburn ailroad rate bill and to continue the same intil the bill shall be disposed of. A trib- ite to the memory of Gen. Joseph Wheel- r was paid by naming a street in the japital "Wheeler street. " The Mann general bridge bill was passed with sev- ; ral perfecting amendments. It provides jeneral provisions to le complied with lereafter in the construction of bridgas icross navigable streams. The Chinese joycott and the administration of the for- st reserve divided the attention of the Senate. Mr. Tillman offered a resolution lirecting an investigation of Chinese af fairs and Mr. Heyburn sharply criticised the methods of the forestry bureau. The Bouse statehood bill was reported favor- ibly , and notice was given that there ivould be a majority report. The Senate Tuesday passed the bill for ; he reorganization of the consular service and about forty other measures , many of them of considerable importance. Sev- tral provide for lighthouses , fog signals , evenue cutters and public buildings. The .hipping bill was under consideration for i time and was amended so as to relieve [ t from constitutional objections. It was supported in a speech by Mr. Lodge. There also was a discusion of the bills nuking common carriers liable for injury to employes , which arose over the ques tion of their reference to committees. Some Senators intimated that the com mittees' were anxious to avoid the respon sibility of pasing on these measures. Dis- 2ussion of the rate regulation bill was oegun in the House , and the members evinced a more general interest in the matter than in any topic that has come up for a long time. Mr. Townsend of Vlichigan opened with a speech support ing the bill , being followed by Mr. Adum- son of Georgia , representing the minority , svho commended the measure. Questions oy Mr. Sherley of Kentucky and Mr. Lit- tlefield of Maine indicated that there is ; o be some opposition , at least in debate. In the Senate Wednesday Mr. Patter son strongly indorsed the position of the President in Santo Domingo and in the matter of the Moroccan conference. Mr. Tillman presented a resolution request ing the President to send to the Senate all the official correspondence with the American minister to Santo Domingo in L904. It went over until Thursday. Mr , Seyburn sought an agreement to vote on the pure food bill Feb. 7 , but Mr. Tcl- er objected. Mr. Teller made a similar objection when Mr. Gallinger sought to lave a time fixed for a vote on the ship- ling bill. Considerable debate on this measure followed , but no action was tak en. Discussion of the railroad rate bill was continued in the House. Speeches by Mr. Campbell ( Kan. ) and Mr. Mar tin ( S. D. ) took a wider rauge and in- tluded trust evils. Another speech in favor of the bill was made by Mr. Bart- lett ( Ga. ) , while Mr. Perkins ( N. T. ) attacked the measure. A bill was passed granting a federal charter to the Carne gie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The fund consists of $10- 000,000 , the income of which is to fur nish a pension to retired educators. Right to dam the Rock river at Grand Detoui , 111. , was granted. * * * The Senate Thursday passed about forty miscellaneous bills , providing for a delegate in Congress from Alaska ami for lighthouses , revenue cutters and fish cultural stations. The greater part of the time was devoted to the shipping bill , Mr. Penrose making a set speech in favor of the measure. Mr. Tollman's resolution calling on .the President to send to the Senate all the letters from the minister to Santo Domingo to the State Department in 190-4 was referred to the committee on foreign relations. The House called for the estimate of cotton yet to be ginned , which the director of the census has compiled , but which he h.-xs no authority to make public until March. The discussion of the railroad rate bill was continued. Mr. Shelby ( Pa. ) attacked the measure as socialis tic. Mr. Knapp ( N. Y. ) , Mr. Shakel- ford ( Mo. ) and Mr. Heflin ( Ala. ) sup ported it. A resolution looking to the preservation of Niagara Falls was agreed to. It requires a report and recom mendation from the American members of the joint commission appointed a fe\r years ago to consider this question. Xote of tlio National Capital. The Supreae Court of the United States is taking v recess for the consid eration of cases which have been present- 3d to the court. President Roosevelt has declined to ex tend a pardon to Charles H.

Congress plans an inquiry into the tfavy Department as the result of the lazing at Annapolis , the explosion 03 lie Bennington end the recent grounding > f the battleships in New York Jwwbor. "When Lincoln Won Hl S ' n. Leaving the question of his relative Ktanding In the profession at large for further consideration , It is confidently submitted that Lincoln won a credit able position at .the local bar , almest at the outset of his career , among contemporaries who were not only capable lawyers , but men of * rcep- tional force and character. Indeed , It is exceedingly doubtful if the bar of any other State In the Union pos sessed as much native talent and abil ity as the frontier State of Illinois when Lincoln won his spurs. Cen tury. LOST 72 POUNDS. Was Fast Drifting Into tbe Fatal Stasrfes of Kidney Slcltaeaa. Dr. Melvin M. Page , Page Optical Co. , Erie , Pa. , writes : "Taking too many iced drinks in New York in 1895 sent me home with a terrible attack of kidney trouble. I had acute conges- tlon , sharp pain in the backheadaches and attacks of diz ziness. My eyes gave out , and with the languor and sleeplessness of the of the disease upon me I wasted from 194 to 122 pounds. At the time I started using Doan's Kid ney Pills an abscess was forming on my right kidney. The trouble was quickly checked , however , and the treatment cured me , so that I have been well since 1896 .and weigh 188 pounds. " Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co. .

It was in New England , on a mountain side , and the splendid colors of the foli age the scarlets and golds and innu merable flamelike tints gave to the still forests an indescribable inagnifi- ' cence. "And the leaves fell in a rain of color through the transparent air. In the garden , one afternoon , I heard a gar dener say to his little son : " 'I wish you would rake up these dead leaves in a pile. ' " 'Oh , I don't feel like it , ' whined the boy. 'My back's sore , and I've got a cramp in my wrist , and there's grow ing pains In my leg. ' " 'After you get 'em raked up , ' went on the gardener calmly , 'you can make a nice big bouflre out of them and jump over it. ' "The boy began to whoop and leap. " 'Hurrah ! ' he shouted. 'Where's the rake ? ' " Philadelphia Bulletin. Her Little Bllstalcc. Excuse , madarne , " he said , "but ah you remember , in the restaurant , after the theater , the other night , you were kind enough to notice me.

" Denver Post OVER SEA HABIT. Difference on This Side the "Water. The persistent effect upon the heart of caffeinein coffee cannot but result In the gravest conditions , in time. Each attack of the drug ( and that means each cup of coffee ) weakens tha organ a little more , and the end is al most a matter of mathematical demon stration. A lady writes from a West ern State : "I am of German descent , and it was natural that I should learn at a" very early age to drink coffee. Until I was 23 years old I drank scarcely anything else at my meals. "A few years ago I began to be af fected by a steadily increasing ner vousness , which eventually developed Into a distressing heart trouble that made me very weak and miserable. Then , some three years ago , was add ed asthma in Its worst form. My suf ferings from theso things can be bet ter imagined than described. "During all this time my husband realized more fully than I did that cof fee was Injurious to me , and made orery effort to make me stop. "Finally It was decided a few months ago , to quit the use of coffee absolutely , aad to adopt Posrum Food Coffee as our htrt table drink. I had but little idea that it would hip me , but consented to try it to pleasa my husband. I prepared it very carefully , exactly according to directions , and waa Aelijflited with its delicious flavor and refreshing qualities , "Just as scon as the poison from the coffee had time te get out of my system tho nutritive properties of the Postuni began t * build me up , and I am ew fully recovered from all my Bcrrousaesa , heart trouble and asthma.

Prosecnter Says Claim for Immun ity "Was nn Afterthought. District Attorney Morrison , In open- Ing tbe case of the government against the beef packers at Chicago , said that their claim for immu nity was au after thought , and "only a part of their clap-trap defense presented by men of influence in the effort to unfit the jury for fair deliber ation in this case. " lie said these men were trust lawyers , and tllflt the packers J. O. ABMOTJB. . . . . . , , were ? not entitled to immunity because their statements had not been made under oath. In closing for l ie defense Attorney nines had quoted from a letter written by Presi dent Roosevelt to Attorney General Moody in tbe Santa Fe case , but what tbe defense regards as an admission that the Department of Commerce and Labor and the Department of Justice had worked together to indict the pack ers. The defense argued that the se curing of evidence from the packers against themselves constituted a prom ise of immunity. Testimony to prove that the packers in giving information to Commissioner of Corporations Garfield did so with notice that they would be called upon to authenticate the evidence furnished upon their oath or affirmation , which they claim was equivalent to having been sworn , was given Tuesday dur ing the trial of the packers. Charles G. Dawes , former Comptrol ler of the Currency , followed Louis C. Krauthofic Tuesday on the stand in the "beef case" trial. In his testimony Mr. Dawes testified to introducing Mr. Krauthoff to Garfield for the confer ence and he also sustained the conten tion of the defendant that immunity was assured by the Commissioner of Corporations if they would give the Government full information. The man who is generally regarded as the head of the beef trust and the principal owner of the private car con cern , namely , .T. Ogden Armour , evi dently is trying to get back at some of the critics responsible ror the popular outcry against his interests by writing a series of articles in the Saturday Evening Post of Philadelphia. Refer ring particularly to the private car re bate charge , Mr. Armour replies that the whole agitation started with the commission men and not with the growers. He says tbe former were dis gruntled because the private car has prevented the commission men from doing business upon the capital of the grower. He insists that it is merely selfish common sense to keep the re frigerator rates down to a point that will foster tbe fruit industry. GREAT TRADE RECORD. American Commerce Gninesl Over J3 OOOOOOOO in 19O5. The foreign commerce of the United States approached surprisingly near to the $3,000,000,000 point in the calendar year 1905 , according to a report issued by the bureau of statistics , Department of Commerce and Labor. "The total imports and exports of mer chandise , " the report says , "is $2SOG,000- 000 , against $2,307,000,000 in 1900 , an average increase of $100,000,000 a year. "If to the $2,800,000.000 of foreign commerce in 1905 were added the figures of trade with Hawaii and Porto Rico , formerly foreign territory and included in our statements of foreign trade prior to 1901 , the total would approximate $2,900,000,000 , or about § 000,000,000 more than five years ago. "Another notable characteristic of tho year's foreign trade is the fact that the exports in December were practically $200,000,000 , the largest month's exporta tion in any year prior to that time be ing that of December , 1901 , when the total was $174,819,500. "The import record for 1905 is also in excess of that of any preceding year , being for the twelve months ended with December $1.179,358.840 , against $1,035- r > 0',190 ) in 1904. The growth of imports. 'iile not rapid , has been steady and continues to be so , keeping pace , approxi mately , with the growth of population. "The commerce with the non-contigu- aus territory of the United States also makes a new high record for 1905. It will amount to about $130,000,000 in ralue , against a little less than $100,000- 300 last year. " . The Prince of Wales delights in that lelicate scent known as Avood violet.
