(Special Tele gram.) -The Indian supply depot at Omaha will probably succumb to the inevitable about June (0. unless something Is done to continue the appropriation for 1903. The subcommittee on .Indian affarst having charge of the Indian appropriation bill has completed 1U work, and today presented a bill to the full committee, which will go ever the measure at Its next meeting. The bill doea not make any appropriation for the continuance of the Indian supply depot at Omaha. Secretary . Hitchcock waa against Inserting the item In the appro priation bill Iwo years ags but ex-Senator Thurston, then chairman of the Indian committee, maintained it and continued to hold It as long as he was chairman. Com' mission er Jones was never enthusiastic In regard to the measure, and the fact that Nebraska no longer has representation on the Indlsn committee may largely ao count for the report of sub-committee to discontinue the office. .. The bill as prepared for report to the house committee on Indian affairs discon tinues the Indian agency on the Sao and Fox reservation in Iowa, Santee In Neb raska, and Yankton to South Dakota. Com missioner Jones has recommended the dls sontinuance of two of these agencies re peatedly, tut thsy are always restored on the floor of one or the other of the two houses, snd it is expected Senator Allison will look after the Sao and Fox agency In Iowa while Senator Gamble will do like wise for Yankton. Fate ef lantee Agtser t'acertala. 6enator Millard, however. In whoss sec lion the Santee agency Is situated, has not determined whether he will attempt to have that agency restored. One Item of the bill from which muoh Is expected spproprlates $5,000 for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of Indians upon the reservations, their degree of civ ilisation, the advisability of reducing the site of reservations, propriety of commut ing their annuities, the areas needful for their use, whether lands are better fitted for forestry than agriculture and to make a full report upon the area of mineral lands Included in ibe reservations. The supports granted by the bill for the Indian' schools do not vary greatly from the last bill, and In the main are below the figures ef the Fifty-sixth congress. For Genoa, Neb., $66,800 Is appropriated. Including money for a new boiler house and boilers. Rhjgs Institute, South Dakota, gets $77,935,. Including a . new barn, addition to workshop, dairy building and equipments.' Chamberlain, 8. D., Is given by the sub committee $40,060, which" Includes' the cost ef the superintendent's new cottage, new laundry, extension, of stwer and steam pumping plant. Rapid City. E. D., baa to be sttsfled with $35,150, Including the cost of laundry, extension of sewer and employes' auarters. ' ' To Settle for Nebraska Lands. The subcommittee's report on the In dian appropriation bill also directs the sec retary of the lnterior'to pay to the Otoe tribe of Indiana in Oklahoma $50,000 of the money collected for them In the settlement of their claim for' land sold for them in Nebraska. This grows out of the settle ment of an old controversy over the sale of Otoe and Missouri lands in Tsge oounty, which stalked through congress msny years before a settlement was reached. In the urgent deficiency bill reported to the senate today, John Blaker of Hastings, Neb., a clerk to Senator C. H. Dietrich, Is allowed pay from April ( to December 1; J. B. Haynes, as clerk to Senator Mil lard, la allowed pay from April 11 to De cember 1, and Edwin R. Wlnans, clerk to Senator A. B.

HILirriNE TARIFF CAUSES SHARP TILT armaek's Maldea Speech Is Chal lenged by Beveridge, Who Then Becomes Involved la Political Uaarrel with Tillman. WASHINGTON, Feb. . Another spirited ebate with the Philippine tariff bill as tbe text wsa precipitated in the senate today as the result of some statements made by Mr. Carmack, democrat of Tennessee, In the course ot an extended peech oh tbe general Philippine question. U Is the Tennessee senator's first speech in the senate, and be was given notably good attention on both sides of the cham ber. He spoke without manuscript, with earnestness, force and eloquence. At the conclusion of his address, which had been listened to by many of his former colleagues in the house of representatives, Mr. Beveridge of Indiana, challenged some of his statements. Ths debate Which en sued wss lively tor a few minutes, taking on a political phase which proved interest ing to the auditors who crowded tbe floor as well as the galleries. Beveridge aad Tlllmaa Tilt. Mr. Beveridge and Mr. Tillman of South Carolina, became involved In a heated colloquy In which the exchanges were as hot as both senators well could make them. Prior to the taking up ot the Philippine bill, the measure pro- idlng for an Increase In salaries of United '-States Judges wss under discussion for an hour. In tbe cor; le ot the debate, the case of Judge Arthur H. Noyea of the district court of Alaaka was drawn upon to show why some Judges should not be given the increase 8oon after the senate convened today Mr. Hale of , Maine reported the urgent de flclency bill and gave notice that he would all It up for consideration tomorrow. At the conclusion Mr. Culberson In quired whether a reply had been received from the secretary of war to his resolu tlon psssed ten dsys ago calling for certain correspondence relating to the Philippines tariff. When informed tbat no reply had been received, he declared that In view of the fact the question was under discus, slon in the senate the delay was . "un seemly." Ne Increased far tor Members. Consideration of ths bill to increase tbe salaries ot Judges ot the United States courts then was resumed. The pending amendment waa that of Mr. Stewart's In creasing the salaries of senators and members of the house of representatives to $7,600 annually, beginning on March 4, 1903. After brief discussion the amend ment was rejected, 15 to 44. The detailed vote waa: Yeas .' Burton, Hansbrouah. Quay. Clark (Wyo.), Hawley. Btewart Dubois, Turner, Warren. Weymore 15.

Mr. Tillman Inquired of Mr. Foraker whether Porto Rico was in the United Slates or not. I will ssy to tbs senator," replied Mr, Foraker, "that Porto Rico belongs to the United States." The matter of 'belonging to' and being in' is entirely different," suggested Mr, Tillman. . Statae af Porto Hleq. Mr. Foraker throught this wsa not the proper time to discuss the status ot Porto Rico. Oh. there Is plenty of time," ssid Mr. Tillman. "We've got the whole session be fore us. We might as well discuss the question now as at any other time." Mr. Foraker aald he would content him self now with saying simply tbst Porto Rico belongs to ths United States. "The relation ot the latand to the United States, ssld he, "has been established by congress, and been approved by the United States supreme court Mr. Teller urged if tbe salaries of . ths Judges In Porto Rleo and Hawaii were to be Increased, those of the-Judges In tbe territories also should be Increased, . Considerable opposition was developed to the amendment and Mr. Foraker withdrew It rather than leonardlze the bill. Mr, Clark ot Wyoming insisted upon his amend ment and reoffered it at once. The amendment wss laid on the table without division. Vaao of Jssgs Noyea. Mr. Bates of Tennessee msds an argu ment against the bill. Taking advantage of the latitude of debate allowed by the sen ate rules, Mr. Tillman directed attention to an article In tbe Washington. Poat pub tlshed today, relative to the case ot Judge Arthur H. Noyes ot the district court ot Alaska, who was fined $1,000 reoently by the circuit court at San- Frsnclsoo, snd of associates of Judge Noyes who were la volved with him. .Mr. .Tillman read the article, which indicated that Judgs Noyes snd his sssoclatea are drawing large sal artea from ths United States, whlls ths esse against them Is pending In ths courts Ons ot tbs msn, according to tbs artlole, who is serving bis sentence, continues te draw salary Mr. Tillman made running commenta upon the atatements in the article, directing all bis sarcasm, ridicule and invective against Jutlge Noyes, finally inquiring: "By tbs way. whoss business is it to remove thi man?" Impearhmeat Mnr Be Keeesaary, Mr. Foraker ot Ohio believed U might require impeachment proceedings to rs move Judge Noyes, but Mr. Teller contended tbat tbs president had ample power to re move a territorial Judge. He believed there waa ao question about that. Ha declared the actions of Judge Noyes bsd been "crying- shame," and asserted tbat a re cllal of his outrages would startls the American people. At 3 o'clock the Philippine tariff bill was laid before the senate and Mr. Carmack of Tennessee, a member of the Philippine commission, delivered a speech In oppoet tlon te tbe pending mnasurs. Hs eon tended that congress was not prepared te deal understandlngly .with ths Philippine situation ta any of Its phases, because wss not familiar with, the facta.. The bill he ssld, bad been framed by the Philippine commission, aa autocratic body. 10,000 mile away, end not a change had baea made it by congreaa. "This bill." said Mr. Carmack. "Is framed on the theory that the rblllpplne Islands' are deadly menace to our own trade and that the less we trade with those islands snd tbs less we hsve to do with them the better It will be for us. The only trsds that will flourish under auch conditions la tbat of ths xplolters dnd it la proposed to turn ths Islands ever to them. - It Is tor the bene fit of the carpet-baggers and not for the benefit of the American people that a war ot criminal aggression Is being wsged la the Philippine Islands. We ot tbe minority cannot support this bill or the policy of hlch It Is a part." He next discussed briefly the subject ef tbe censorship of press dispatches in Ma ils. He declared lhat.lt was not a cen sorship for military purposes, but had been 'established by, for and In ths Interest of the republican party. Important Informa tlon bad been suppressed by tbe censor, be declared, and the1 people' of this Country hsd been kept In Ignorance of matters a knowledge ot which they were entitled. Referring to the republican supporters of ths Phllpplne' policy, Mr'. ' Caruiauk said: You lift your bands Id holy - horror at the lynching of a colored man In the south, yet you are engaged In lynching 10,000,000 people who were recently, your allies and brothers In arms, and who committed no crime, except the crime upon which this government was founded." . ' . Wants Dawey Investigated. . With great earnestness he declared that it the president of the United States had properly characterised Agulnaldo and his associates,' as bloodthirsty Apaches, then Admiral Dewey and those who secured Agulnaldo's help and assistance could not escape the charge of deliberately violating the laws of civilised warfare, and he hoped the charge agalbst Admiral Dewey would be investigated. "From ths beginning," said Mr. Carmack, we know that Agulnaldo was lighting net for a change of masters, but for absolute freedom, and," he said. "General Anderson had assured Agulnaldo ' that the American people never had established colonies and that he could trust In the honor of the American people. These facts," he said. constitute a binding obligation upon us to give them their Independence." He added: "Haul down the American flag wherever It wavea.as an emblem of force and of despotism." , He charged that the United States had been holding a false and delusive hope to the Filipinos and that we were killing, those people, for the salvation of their souls aad building up the church of God out of human bones. Deprecates Poller Coniaeat. Mr. Carmack maintained that by follow ing out tho policy of conquest formulated by the majority In power the United States was pressing itself Into all the bickerings and quarrels of the world. Under auch a policy no peace waa In view for this gov ernment. The position of the government would simply be one of armed neutrality. At tbe conclusion of Mr. Csrmack's speech, Mr. Beveridge, republican member of the Philippine commission, shsrply chat lenged a statement by tbe Tennessee sens tor that the Philippine tariff bad not been well or carefully considered. As a matter of fact he eald tho tariff scale waa fixed after months of consideration and after consulting every Interest In the Philippines. "Did the Philippine commission make aa Investigation of the Philippine tariff seals?" inquired Mr. Carmack. No," " replied Mr. Beveridge. "but. the Philippine commlsslqn has boeu consider. lng that scale for two years.". Mr. Beveridge declared that If the demo. cratlo party, had given to its last tariff bill the same care which' had been given tne Philippine tariff scale, this country's prosperity woulfT'tiot have withered as it naa unaer toe tana it bad enacted. v Whr Democrats .Arc Paraakea. Further along Mr. Beveridge declared that the reason why ex-President. Cleveland, ex- President Harrison and ex-Senator , Ed munds, all of whom had not been in sym pathy with the' Philippine policy of tbe administration, declined to follow, the demo cratlc party, was because that party would not accept the decisions of the supreme court . and the verdict of the American people: as final j; He asserted that the rea sons why ths "thoughtful people of the country" had not followed the democratic party in its opposition to the proper con trolling ot the Phlllipplnes and In other matters of national policy was thst they tesred that party would sow "ths dragon's teeth, from which would spring a harvest of anarchy." Another reason, hs said, was that party was sounding a note of retreat, and "never In the history ot the country had the American people retreated from any proposition fairly presented to them, and they never would." . . - . ' "They will not follow you." he declared. shaking bis finger at the democratic aide, "because you are calling our soldiers mur derers and 'charity boys' and 'doers of dirty worav " Tlllmaa laterrapts. As he wss proceeding to discuss some of the conditions In the Philippine Islands Mr. Tillman of South Carolina .interrupted with the Inquiry; 'v, .-. "Will the senator be explicit and give us the benefit t his psrsonal observations, or any official Information, he -has In regard to tbe dispatch from ( General Bell that he proposed to make war so terrible thst they would wsnt peace, and want It bad is that true, or is It, not r v 'It was not dons while V was there," re plied Mr. Beveridge. "I will ask tbe senator whether, when he Is making war, ha would not make war so terrible tbat the enemy would want peace?" , "That would depend," said Mr. Tillman, "whether I was honestly engaged In. a war that I thought waa decent and respectful, or of subjugation aad Infamy." ' "And does the senator charge," demanded Mr. Beveridge, "that General Bell does net believe he Is engsged In an honest war?" I know tbat there are plenty of officer BOY BUILDING There Is abundance of proof that food can be selected thst will build up a brain as wsll sa bodr. One case is that of a boy and ths descrlp tlon is given by bis mother. She ssys "This particular aon has alwaya hsd a del tcate atomach. and when be was aa Infant had cholera Infantum two or three aeasons la suoceesloo; hs wss exceedingly bard to raise, and was not wsll enough to go to school when he became oldv enough." The mother says, "Finally ws concluded to put him on Grspe-Nuts exclusively and see what the food would do tor him. We did, and to our great aatonlsbment our boy Improved dally.

'Has Oenernl Bell told yon SOT" Insisted Mr. Beveridge. I don't know about General Bell," ssld Mr. Tillman. "I have not seen him." Then why do you drag in General Bell, General Wbeaton and others T" sharply In quired Mr. Beveridge. Mr. Tillman I wilt drag Into this dis cussion . aa Associated Press report from Manila. Mr. Beveridge Now It (s an Associated Press man. Mr. Tillman Then you either have a censorship or you have not. Yon awear you have not,. and when the reports come you any, "those are not ours." Mr. Beveridge It is hopeless. When they begin to discuss tbe constitution and ws tftko them up upon that they come to the censorship. When we . say nons exists, then we go to war, bloodshed, pillage and murder.' ,4Flads laanrsrents to Blame. After more aharp -personal colloquy, the Indiana and South Carolina senators ridi culed each other, Mr. Beveridge proceeded to relate an Incident ot the burning of a village, aad said upon ' Investigation it proved that It was the act of the insurg ents, his purpose being to disprove, some reports against tbe American soldiers. Mr. Tillman waa on his feet again and asked Mr. Beveridge: "From whom do we get tho statements that the tcsurgenta or rebels, or whatever they are did all this burning?" The American authorities," replied Mr. Beveridge.. And le It customary," Inquired Mr. Till man, "to dstermine a case irom ex parva commenta 7" . "Why does the senator always insist," rstorted Mr. Beverldae. "that any author ity that comes frotif an American source is a falsehood, while everything tbat cornea from the enemy Is the truth?"..- For the sams reason," replied tbe South Carolina senator, "tbat while In my own state when Its capltol was burned In 1853, there, was an infamous asssrtlon that we burned it, while everybody knew we did not do so,"' . , "Now, Mr. President," said Mr. .Bev eridge laughing, "we are beck again on ancient history, . which I, decline to . dis cuss." Allison gatlafled with Scale. Mr. Allison of Iowa, a member ot tbs Philippine commission, kald that so far as be was concerned he bad given tbe Philip pine tariff the best consideration ot which he was capable. He bad gone over tbe schedules thoroughly and was satisfied that the scale was as good, perhaps as could be devised. He believed every, taerrf- ber of the committee had done his duty In that regard. After some Incidental discussion by Mr. Foraker ot Ohio, Mr. Teller ot Colorado and Mr. Carmadk,' the senate at 4:45 on motion of - Mr. - Lodge, went . into execu tlve session and a few minutes later ad Journed. OLEOMARGARINE IN THE HOUSE General Debate for. aad Against the ateasare, with Oppoaeata De ' tented at Plllbaster WASHINGTON, Fsb. . 8. The bouss de voted today to general debate on tbe oleo margarine bill. ' The opponents of the measure attempted to filibuster against it at the opening of the session, bat . were beaten by more than a two-thirds- vote. The 'speakers today .were Henry of , Con- imtlcut; tlasklne of Vermont, and Graff of Illinois, in : faves of tbe-- measure; -and Wadsworth of New- York. Foster of Illinois, Burleson of Texas, and Claysoa ot Ala bama, In opposition to It. Those who an' tagonlzed the bill favored the adoption of the substitute, which Is designed to pre vent the fraudulent sale of oleomargarine under the guise of butter. Before the oleomargarine bill was taken up Mr. Bull ot Rhode Island, who had been 111 since congress convened, was sworn In, and Mr. Payne, from the committee on ways and means, 'reported the bill to re peal the wnr revenue taxes. The opponents of the oleomargarine bill reslstsd the motion to go into committee of the .whole to consider It, and when the division was announced 63 ayes aqd 48 noes. Mr. Clayton of Alabama, made tbe point ot no quorum. The speaker was able to count only 152 members not a quorum, whereupon Mr. Underwood ot Alabama, moved that the house adjourn. Mr. Henry ot Connetlcut, who Was In charge of the oleomargarine ' bill, made the point that the motion Was dilatory, but tbe speaker overruled tbe point apd the roll was called upon tbe. motion to adjourn. The motion to adjourn was lost, 63 to 188. Another roil call followed on the motion to go Into committee of the whole. It was carried, 175 to 73, and the house went into committee of tbe whole with Mr. Lacey tn the chair. Henry Aratnea for the Bill. Mr. Henry ot Conneticut, In charge of tbe measure, made the opening presentation la Us behalf, following cloaely the argu ments of the committee which reported the bill. - Tha purpose of , tbe bill, hs ssld, wsa to make he sale of olemargarine colored tn imitation ot Duller unpronianie oy impos lng a tax of 10 cents ' per pound. It would not, however, interfere with the sale ot the uncolored product, on which tbe bill pur poses to reduce the tax to one-fourth of a cent 'per pound. Tbat the country was be hind the proposed legislation he argued waa proved .by the fact that thirty-two statea with, four-fifths of tbe population ot the United States absolutely forbid tbe menu facture of oleomargarine to resemble but ter. The measure was only aimed at the fraudulent product. The new aectlon of the bill, making any person who sells or furnlshsd oleomargarine tor the use or con sumption of others, a manufacturer within the meaning of the act, he aald was In tended to prevent unscrupulous deslsrs. botel proprietors, restaursnts and boarding house keepers front coloring the manufao tured article. Mr. Wadaworth of New York,' chairman of the agricultural committee, followed In opposition to the bill.
