WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. ConBdlcratlon of
tho shipping bill wan resumed this after
noon by tho senate. At tho Instance of Mr.
Fryo of Maine, who relinquished tho chair
temporarily to tako charge of the measure
on tho floor, It wan mado the unfinished
business of the senate, thus restorlnK It to
Its privileged poMtlon.
Mr. Vest of Missouri took tho floor Im
mediately In a characteristically brilliant,
forceful and InturestlnK epecch lasting
nearly thrco hours. He advocated free
ships and vigorously nttnckod tho naviga
tion laws of tho fulled States, holding that
they wuro responsible for the decadence of
tho merchant marlno of America. IIu was
accorded close attention by hlB colleagues
on both sides.
Karly In the session Mr. HawlliiB, demo
crat of Utah, precipitated n lively colloquy
by charging that n deal had been entered
into between tho republican members of tho
Utah legislature and certain railroad In
terests nnd tho officials of tho Mormon
church to securo the election of Thomas
L. Kearns to tho senato from that state.
Ho aroused Mr. Halo of Maine and Mr.
Chandler of New Hampshire, who con
tended that tho statements of Mr. Hawlln
ought not to bo made In the senato at this
Btago of tho proceedings In Utah, as tho
senate could not consider the question In
any phaso In advance of action.
At tho conclusion 01 routine business
consideration was resumed of tho legisla
tive, executive and Judicial bill, tho pend
ing question being the amendment of Mr.
Jones of Arkansas providing for tho ap
pointment of an assistant attorney general
to represent the government In all matters
of claims pending before congress.
Attoriiry firiiornl In Capitol,
Mr. Chandler, who opposed tho amend
nictit, offered nn amendment providing that
tho assistant attorney general should have
an oulco In tho capltol, an assistant at a
salary of $2,500 per annum and bo assigned
two clerks, who should assist him In tho
work of his office. Mr. Chandler ridiculed
Mr. Jones proposition and Indicated that
bo hold In rcservo another amendment
which would provide for a similar attorney
for other departments of tho government.
A spirited Incident occurred when tho
legislative bill was taken up. Mr. Rawlins
of Utah read a newspaper artlclo saying
thcro waB a combination formed in tho
Utnh legislature to elect a Mr. Kearns sena
tor, nnd that It was being forwarded by
tho Mormon church, which was now work
ing with tho republican party. He inti
mated that tho church had received certain
promises from tho republicans relatlvo to
tho practlco of polygamy, nnd ho said ho
thought a volco should go out from Wash
ington In condemnation of tho proceedings.
Mr. Halo of Malno replied to Mr. Rawlins
vigorously. He said thcro ought not to bo
any expression of tho United States senato
upon a matter Uko a senatorial election.
It was highly Improper to send a "volco
from Washington" while a legtslaturo was
performing Its constitutional duty. It was
pntcrnnllam of tho worst sort.
Mr. Chandler of Now Hampshlro also took
occasion to Ray that ho thought tho action
of Mr. Huwllns was not In good tasto and
that tho senato Bhould not attempt to In
fluence n stato legislature.
In reply Mr. Hawllns criticised the notion
of tho legislature of Now Hampshlro,
whero Mr. Chandler was defeated, and said
tho result was, according to Mr. Chandler's
statement, brought about by combinations
similar to thoao proposed In Utah.
Mr. Chandler smilingly retorted that whllo
tho result In New Hampshlro was greatly
to bo deplored, and tho methods of tho late
senatorial election In that stato to bo con
demned, yet It would havo been very bad
taBto If his colleague (Mr. Clalllngur) had
mado a protest whllo tho election was
, going on,
I.iuiKli Over (!rnnlt State.
This allusion, owing to tho well known
differences uxistlng between tho Now
Hampshlro senators, raised a laugh among
senators and the galleries.
Tho sonato then continued tho considera
tion of tho appropriation bill.
At 2:30 p. hi. tho senato passed tho legis
lative bill, and on motion of Mr. l'ryo tho
ship Biibsldy bill waH taken up. There was
a vlvn voce voto, but not a roll call.
Mr. Jones of Arkansas called attention to
tho Indian appropriation bill, which had
been reported, which remained for tho sen
ate to consider and which contained much
debatablo matter. Mr. Jones thought the
Indian bill should tbcrcforo bo considered.
After an arrangement had been concluded
for procedure In regard to amendments to
tho bill, Mr. Vest of Missouri took tho floor
In opposition to tho measure.
Mr. Ilawllns of Utah, who had endeavored
AT FIRST GLANCK
It "Would Appear That Local Itcnii'
IIc Would lli UcM for
Cure of Cntiii'rli.
It would seem at first glauco that catarrh,
being a dlueauo of the mucous membrauu,
that salves, sprays, otc, being applied di
rectly to tho muiubrancB of the uoso and
throat, would bo tho must rational treat
ment, but this has been proven not to bo
'true.
T he mucouB membrauo Ib mndo and re
paired from tha blood nnd catarrh Is a
blood disease and any remedy lo make a
permanent euro must act on tho blood, and
when tho bluod Is purltled from catarrhal
poison, tho secretions from the mucous
mombrann will become natural and healthy.
In this climate thouunuds of people seem
scarcely ever frco from boiiio form of ca
tarrh; It gets better at times, but each win
ter becomes gradually deeper seated aud
after a tlmo tho sufferer resigns himself to
It ns a necessary evil.
Catarrh cures are almost an numerous ns
catarrh sufferers, but nro nearly all so In
convenient und Ineffective as to render their
use a nuisance nearly as annoying as ca
tiurli Itself; anyenu who has uicd douches,
sprays and powders will bear witness to
their Inconvenience and fnlluro to really
euro.
Thcro pro n number of excellent Internal
remedies for catarrh, but probably the best
and certainly tho safest Is a new remedy,
composed of Kwalyptol, Hydrastis, San-
guluarla and other valuable catarrh spo
cities. '
This remedy Is In tablet form, pleasant
to tho tasto aud sold by druggists under tho
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and any
ono suffering from catarrh may use these
tablets with absolute assurauco that they
contain no cocaine, opiate nor any poison
ous mineral M'hatover.
A leading druggist In Albany, speaking of
catarrh cures, says- "I have sold various
caturrh cures for years, but have never 'sold
any which gavo such general satisfaction na
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. They contain In
a pleasant, concentrated form nil the best
and latest catarrh remedies, and catarrh
sufferers who havo used douches, sprays and
salves havo been astonlBhcd nt tho quick
relief nnd permanent results obtained after
n week's uso of Stuart a Catarrh Tablets.'
All druggists sell full sized packages for
fifty cents.
vninly t dls.usi the senatorial situation In
I 'nh under a question of peraonnl prlvilego
at the opening of the irnntp. was rccog-
nlied and within the latitude afforded by
i he senato rule read somo nrtlolea from
Fait Lake City and Washington (D. C )
nowspapcrs dealing with tho Utah sena
torial discussion and discussed them. Tho
article In tho Salt Lake City paper, repub
lican In affiliation, wns In effect that a deal
bad been entered Into between certain re
publicans nnd tho Mormon church to bring
about tho election of Thomas Kearns, The
dlipatch In tho Washington newspaper re
ported that Mr. Kearns had. been nominated
by tho republican caucus for the senator
ship. This, Mr. Hawllns said, seemed to
convey tho Idea that a "deal" had been car
ried out, but he had always been reluctant
to bclleva the charges that had been mado
and Ignored them.
Ho thought that a voice ought to go out
from Washington ndmonlshlng tho legisla
ture of Utah that tho eyes of tho people of
L'tnh wero on It.
.Mr. Hale asked what tho senate could do.
"I bring up this matter now," said Mr.
Hawllns, "In order to call tho attention of my
pcoplo to It In order that they may thwart
such a conspiracy If It exists. Tomorrow It
may bp too late."
Mr. Halo Insisted It was not fitting inor
in accord with the traditions of tho senate
that It should inquire Into senatorial con
tests in the various states before an elec
tion was effected.
Mr. Clianrilrr Heard Prom.
Mr. Chandler dealt brlclly with tho ques
tion which had been raised by Mr. Hawllns,
referring facetiously In his remarks to his
own defeat In New Hampshlro ten days
ago. He maintained It would bo highly
unbecoming In tho senate to tako the slight
est notice of ibo developments In tho sen
atorlnl contest In Utah, nnd Intimated that
Mr. Hawllns was merely advertising per
sonal views regarding tho contest.
In reply, Mr. Hawllns adverted sarcastic
ally to tho recent New Hampshire sena
torial election, which resulted In tho do
fcit of Mr. Chandler, Indicating that Mr.
Chandler had ben caught In tho cogs of a
conspiracy similar to that which seemed
to bo operating in Utnh at tho present
time.
'I have to confirm what the senator has
said about the recent New Hampshlro elec
tion," said Mr. Chandler, good-naturedly.
"It was n horrlblo result." (Laughter.)
In conclusion, Mr. Hawllns said: "If
there has been such a bnrgaln as has been
charged I hopo to Ood what haa occurred
hero will defeat It."
After an extended discussion of tho
ntnendment offered by Mr. Jones, Mr.
Chandler withdrew his amendment to tho
amendment nnd offered ns a substitution
a provision cnnbllng tho secretary of tho
treasury and tho secretory of the Interior
each to appoint a competent lawyer to
represent the United States beforo commit
tees of congress, requested by tho
committee to do so, concerning claims
against tho government, tho salary of each
to bo 4,000. Tho substitute amendment
was agreed to without further debate.
.Ship Subsidy Illll.
Mr. Vest of Missouri addressed tho sen
ato In favor of tho amendment and In favor
of frco ships, which ho has advocated con
sistently for yonrs. Ho said tho pending
measure camo before tho senato ostensibly
from tho commttteo, but had really como
from a commttteo of promotion composed
of twenty-flvo prominent and Intelligent
men nppolntcd by the Junior senator from
Maine, Mr. Frye.
"Tho chairmnn of this commttteo of pro
motion," snld tho Missouri senator, "Is Cle
ment A. OrlBcom, president of tho Interna
tional Navigation company. The company
which ho represents Is by far tho largest
beneficiary under this bill. I must express
my surprlso and regret that not ono mem
ber of that commlttco of promotion Is In
favor of nn American buying his ships
whero bo enn buy them cheapest and then
sailing them under the llag of his country.
Mr. Vest sharply criticised Mr. Chamber
lain, tho present commissioner of naviga
tion, who was appointed first by Mr. Cleve
land nnd who then favored freo ships, for
now drifting with tho republican current
nnd now advocating subsidies.
Ho thought tho pcoplo at large had dono
enough for tho northeastern coast without
contributing $180,000,000 moro to build up
Its ship Industry.
Mutter of Auxiliary CrulnerN.
Mr. Vest ridiculed tho claim that tho bill
Is Intended to provide nuxlllary crulsors In
t mo of war. He contended that bounties
nro unconstitutional, and quoted a letter
from formor Senator Kdmunds, tho author
of tho ponding bill, to Senator Fryo in sup
port of this view. If bounties wero Justifi
able why not give a bounty to .farmers and
stockgrowcra in dry years; why not glvo U
to minors? Ilecauso they were not Justifi
able ns bounties, tho argument had been
advanced that the bill would afford tho
government nuxlllary cruisers lu time of
war.
Referring to tho pcrloratlon of Mr. Fryo
In his speech some tlmo ago upon the pend
ing bill Mr. Vest said ho was reminded of
an actor whom Henry Wattorson was fond
of telling about.
"At the conclusion of the play," said Mr.
Vest, "tho actor,' wrupplng himself In the
American flag, whllo tho orchestra, con
sltlng of n flddlo and a bass drum, played
'Yankee Doodle,' rushed to tho front of tho
stage., II red off a horse pistol and screamed
like, an Amerlcnn eaglo."
Mr. Vest Bald the vessels of what Is known
as tho American linn (tho International
Navigation company) in tho course of tho
twonty-llvo years tho subsidy wao to run
would receive at least $12,000,000 of tho
total that would bo paid out.
Tho Pacific Mall Steamship company, ho
said, would bo tho next beneficiary under
the bill With its present ships and the two
vessels It was building now It would recolve
$550,000 a year of tho subsidy.
To Mr of .Missouri ttaronsm,
".Tho next poor, emaciated, starving cor
poration which will rccelvo n subsidy under
this bill." said Mr. Vest, sarcastically, "Is
tho Standard Oil company." (Laughter.)
"It was." he said, "trembling with
emnclatton nnd hungry for tho necessities
of life, Its shnrts of stock being worth
only $830 each. Ho had endeavored to
ascertain how much of tho subsidy tho
Stnndnrd Oil company would recolvo, but
tho company had declined to tupply any
confirmation as to Its ships."
Mr. Fryo Interjected a statement that
nearly all oil tank steamers wero built
abroad. They would rccelvo only one quar
ter of tho regular subsidy ns they could
bring no returning freight. It was not
likely therefore that thoy would be brought
under tho American flag.
Mr. Vest hoped that thoy would not bo
brought under the Stars nnd Stripes. They
did not deserve, ho maintained, any of the
subsidy.
Vi-it llropN Into I'oetrj.
"ThlB bill " continued Mr. Vest, "will
pasB tho senate. It is u part of tho pro
tective system sacred to tho republican
party, especially in New Ungland. Drunk
with victory, tho republican party will now
atop at nothing."
Mr. Vent closed with the following quo
tation from Tennyion, which, ho said,
should bo taken to heart by tho republl
cniiB: Tho wind blew cast and tho wind blew
west.
And tho blue eggs lu the robln'H neat
Will hoou havo wings nnd beak and breast,
And tlutter und fly away.
As Mr. Vest concluded ho was congratu
lated by numerous senators from both sides
of the chamber.
After a brief executive session the sen
ate, at 5:05, adjourned.
TAKES UP APPROPRIATION BILL

Compare It Advance trltli tliut
of tfrriui.ny.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. Tho blind chap
lain of the house, In his Invocation today,
referred feelingly to the death of Queen
Victoria.
Without intervening business tho houso
Immediately resumed tho consideration of
tho District of Columbia appropriation
bill.
After tho passago of the District of Co
lumbia at ptoprlatlon tho senate resolution
for the celebration of John Marshall day,
February 4, was adopted. Tho house then
took up tho naval appropriation bill.
Mr. Fcs of Illinois, chairman of the
naval committee, explained Its salient fea
tures. Ho snld our navy was larger than the
Herman navy and was keeping a little ahead
of It. Mr. (irosvenor of Ohio said he con
aldercd tho remark unfortunate and cap
able of misconstruction. We were friendly
with Germany nnd there was no reason why
that country should lis singled out for tho
purpose of comparison.
Mr. Fobs disclaimed any Idea that we wero
directing our energies toward keeping ahead
of Germany. Ho had simply slated a fact.
Ho believed In n strong and efficient navy,
not so largo as England's, but of modcrnto
size, built on conservntlvo Hues and cap
able of upholding tho honor of the country
und the llag.
Mr. Ulll of Connecticut asked whether
tho commlttco had given any consideration
to tho question of the ultlmato size of the
navy.
Mr. Foss replied that congress must dccldo
that question. For tho present the com
mittee believed In proceeding conserva
tively. Mnu for man and ship for ship, he
believed tho American navy the most ef
ficient in tho world,
Mr. Foss said the controverted question
ns to armor plate had been happily settled
by tho uctlon of tho secretary of tho navy
In accepting bids for 36,810 tons of armor
at $420 a ton and $24.32 royalty for Krupp
and $11.20 per ton for Harvey armor. He
declared that nt that price the United
State!) would obtain armor at 25 per cent
below tho price paid by other countries.
Millions III Time of I'ener.
Mr. Richardson of Tennessee, tho
minority lender, called attention to tho fact
that tho bill "carries an Increase of $12,
000,000 In tlmo of profound peace,"
"This bill carries $9,000,000 for carrying
on work previously authorized," Inter
posed Mr. Dayton of West Virginia, "nnd
$.1,000,000 fcr rehabilitation of tho naval
academy."
"That may be," answered Mr. Hlchardgon,
"but last year tho bill carried $13,000,000
moro than the bill for tho previous yenr.
Last year the alze of the bill was apologized
for. What I desire to emphasize Is that year
by year there comes these great Increases
for tho navy. Tho present bill Is $20,000,000
larger than tho bill of two years ngo."
Mr. Wheoler of Kentucky spoke en
thusiastically In favor of a great navy. Ho
was opposed, however, to a large army. A
big standing at my, he said, might threaten
our liberties; n largo navy never could,
while It might preserve them against n for
eign enemy.
Tho provision of the bill giving warrant
officers the commutation of quarters allowed
second lieutenants in the marlno corps was
stricken out on a point of order mado by
Mr. Cannon of Illinois, and the snme fato
befell an amendment by Mr. Fitzgerald of
Now York to increase tho number of chap
lains from twenty-four to thirty-four.
After completing live pages of tho sixty
flvo pages of the bill, tho houso, nt C:10 p.
m., adjourned.
CORPS INSTEAD OF REGIMENT
Senate Ilecrilrn from ltd Contention In

Aurceincnt Midi House.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. Tho conferees'
on tho army reorganization bill reached n
final agreement on tho bill lata today, but
tho measure Is so complicated and the
amendments so numerous that tho agree
ment probably will not bo reported beforo
Friday. Tho senate receded from Its
amondmont providing for a regimental
rather than a corps organization of the ar
tillery arm of tho service. That was con
sidered tho most Important difference, ami
when a settlement was reached on that
point no great amount of tlmo was neces
sary to como to an agreement upon other
points. On tho next most Importnnt con
troversy, that concerning tho detail of of
ficers to staff duty, tho senate won most of
Its contentions, Its amendments being
agreed to practically as thoy passed tho
sonatc.

persons, killed nt least one nnd generally
aro terrorizing the people. They have or
ganized In open rebellion against the con
stituted authorities, and lmve destroyed
several hundred allotment certificates Issued
to Creek Indians by the Dawns commission.
Marshal Dennett asks that a troon of cav
airy bo Bent to quell tho disturbance. Tho
Wnr department has telegraphed General
Fltzhugh Lee, commander of tho Depart

gressman Durkett hud a conference today

electors when they nrrlvo in Washington
next Sundny. It was determined that tho
Nebraska delegation should accompany the
electors to tho president pro tern of tho
senato on Monday, aud after tho messenger
of tho electors delivers tho electoral voto
of Nebraska to tho power appointed by the
constitution to rccelvo tho same, then call

At 5 o'clock Monday evening Ncbraskans

yond this nothing of a social character has
been arranged for tho distinguished visitors,
and nothing will be dono until it has been
ascertained Just what the electors from No
bruska desire.
For SuppreNHliiK Indian,
Senator Allen today reported a bill to
pay the state of Nebraska a sura of money
which the territory nnd stnte paid out to
suppress Indlnn outbreaks. Thi report
says: "At the beginning of the war be
tween tho states tho Indians of tho Test
wero Incited to attack tho frontier settle
ments and tho government had all Its force
In tho field far remoto from tho threat
ened communities. Tho governor of Ne
braska, having called tho attention of tho
president nnd secretary of wnr to the
danger, was authorized and requested to
call out the militia to protect tho settlers.
In order to pay tho expenses' of this special
service territorial bonds had to bo Issued,
nnd they boro 10 per cent Interest per an
num. These extraordinary expenses wero
Incurred at various times between 1S01 and
1S(!8. Claims were mado for tho moneys
thus expended by the territory and Btnto of
Nebraska, and were authorized to bo paid
by act of congress and wero paid to the
extent of $38,772.15; but additional sums ag
gregating $7,031.87 wero disallowed by tho
auditing department becnuso of various In
formalities nnd deficiencies in tho proof of
services rendered for damages incurred.
These failures of proof grew out of the
primitive conditions of society in Nebraska
at that tlmo nnd tho Inexperience of of
ficers In the Hold In keeping records such ns
nro kept by tho regularly organized mil
itary forces of the United States govern
ment. "It wns enough for them that they held
back tho hostile Indlnns nnd prevented
raplno nnd murder, nnd they thought llttlo
of tho possible action of tho nudltors. Such
proofs ns wero submitted, while Inching

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. The conces
sional committee which is investlKatltiB
the hazing of Cadet Dooz resumed tho tak
ing of testimony today for the purposo of
clearing up somo remaining points. Former
Cudet Rowland F. Sheldon, who entered
West Point In 1893 apd remained three and
one-half years, testified that Hooz was al
lotted to hltn In tho summer of 1897 na "spe
cial duty man," according to a custom.
Asked if tho academy rules did not forbid
this Bervlce tho witness paid ho had never
required any menial service of Hooz or any
scrvlco to demean him. Kowland Sheldon
said he did not believe In such scrvlco nnd
did not require it. At most Hooz was re
quired to set out refreshments at a tent
spread. Ilooz did not look otrong or well.
Ho lacked vitality. Ho did not retain Ilooz
for special duty very long,
Wltnesi. had exercised fourth class men,
but did not romomber exercising Ilooz. Wit
ness said he know nothing of tho hazing of
Ilooz, aud little of hazing generally, as ho
did not npprove of hazing, nnd, theroforo,
saw little of It. Ilooz was unpopular, ho
said, bocauso shiftless and of n surly ex
pression. Sholdon stnted frnnkly the cir
cumstances of his leaving the nendemy. Ho
had been hazed himself for being slow nnd
thought It did him good, ns It mado him
quicker. His testimony wns generally cor
roborative of tho other witnesses.
