The Income tax question came np next on Mr Gorman's motion to reconsider the senate approval of the conference report on the bill amending the law.

Mr. Vest ( blended the conference changes. The employes hiatt aslccc for it. Mr. German referred to the remarkable attitude - ttudo of the other branch or congress on the question of corporations and compared the course or the house on the tariff bill s. . with the course or the house conferees now. ! I. Chandler said this disclosed the serious dangers or conference commitees , Legisla- ton was enacted whIch neither branch or congress hall considered. This change was "worked Into" I conference report In the Interest of great corp rations. One class oC these corporation employes was about the , halls at congress today laborIng to secure the pusng ! or the pooling bill. Undoubtedly this was I class of employes the great rail- way carpIratons did not wish to report with ' th' list o't salaries , for their work was about - congress. I ! I. Vest said the conferees had not gone as tar as conference committees had frequently - quenty gono. ! I halo said he agreed that the change was germane anl proper.

The bill also provided for ' the government purchase or Indian schools now owned by various denominations. Mr. Lodge said the secretary of tim Inte- 1101 had recommence the gradual abolition of sectarian schools , and they had carried ib out thl pehicy. , Mr. Hawley urged that In abandonIng sec- 11 . tarlan school there should be no abandon- : - ment or Christian teachings In government schools. lie would rather have 0 school run by Jesuits than to havc' one with nC God In It at all. When Mr. DanIel or Virginia was urging that no ene denomination controlled the board of the Hampton schoOl , Mr Cal asked : - "Are . they not all Protestants ? " "Ye" said fdr. Daniel , "becaus this ! Is largely a country of Protestants , and there Is no reason for franehlslng a very large class because at that tact. " Mr. Cockrehl. chairman of the appropria- id tons committee , said he was a Pretestant of the Protestants but he would not deny to : Catholcs what ho took fr I'rotcttants , Seven Catholic schools were stricken frcm the 2 house bill and two Protestant schools re- I talnc. ' "Is there any evidence , " aslwl Mr. Quay , t "that these l'hcos ! are Protestant ? " "Yes , abuliant evidence. " responded Mr. Cocicrehh.

The Information which this dispatch contaIned led to the inquiry as to the outlook for adjournment In Idaho and the prospect or an election there. Senator Uutl was able to state that the session would close March 7. but he could turhb no informatIon as to the I'rospect of an dee- tion . There Is no Ilnlt to the term of the Deawaro legislature.

That was when there was a dcnu.crat ut the ( head or the de- partment. Things were different now that there was n secretary In the ( State depart- ment who rest ato\'e 01' below party accord- Ingly , as he was vlcwed. Still , I the nllmln- 1st ( raton was now oppose to this cable , the manly thing for Cle\'cnnl to do wouhl be to semi a message to con"ess saying he had changed his mind. In ceneluslon : lr , Storer said that n submarine cable was now as mueh n necessity to the ( navy as the ( electrIc - trIc signal which connected the pilot house with the engine reel of a battcshll , Mr. Draper of Massachusetts said he favored - vored this cable ns a preliminary step toward the annexation of the hawaiian Islands. Mr. lermann ct Oregon declared that to the PacIfc coast the lueston Cf a cable con- necton with Ionolilu overshadowed and transcended all others , save only that of the construction ot the Nicaragua canal , The People of the hawaiian Islands give us 90 per cent or theIr tr e , More of our ships entH(1 the ( pcrt or 10nolulu than any other port In the world last year , Liverpool not excepted Aside from the commercial ra- sons for the construction or the ( cable , there were patriotic and public reasons. Mr Hurter of Ohio thought thIs cable , houll be laId by private capital , and he concluded b ) saying that private Parties had appeared bercre the commlteo and had asked for a clnrter for this purpose. Mr Ryan or New York thought this democratic - crate honse could wel afford In the closing hours or the session to show its sympathy [ with merchants desiring to extend our trade by voting an appropriation for the construc- ton ot thIs cable. Mr. Tucker of Virginia opposed . the amendment. SICKLES PROCLAIMS PLATFORM Mr. Sickles of New York earesty sup- porte the cable proposition. He was com- pelted to appenl ( ruin the judgment or the house commitee on foreign affairs to that of the senate commitee , As an American ho had a platform at his own. He favored annexatlon. As a democrat he found his warrant In the policy of Jefferson , who an- nexed LouIsiana and of Jackson , who an- nexed Texas. H party lines trammelec him on a question Je this ho would break them asunder as ho had done berore. "There should be no partisanship In Americanism , Mr speaker " contnued Mr Sickles , "my span ot life has not much longer to run , yet I hope to live to te the star at the republic : of the Pacific add Its tropcal ! splendor to I the ( star of the Wlster hemIsphere. " ( Loud applause emi lie ( republican sIde. ) Mr. McCreay closed the debate , and In tle tle course of his remarks denied that Mr. Ceve- land had ever endorsed a proposition for the construction of a Hawaiian cable by the government. He hat merely favored the ( Incorporation - corporation of a company to lay such a cable The vote was then taken on Mr. IIItt's motion , that the house agree to tIm senate amendments Mr. Hltt demanded the , yeas and nays , and the roll was called. His mo- ton was iost-114 to 1r2 , The vote was practically , 11ractcaly a party one The republicans and popnlsts voted for the build- lag of the cable and tim , democrts against It.
