The 9nfnre rp6rt on tbe sundry civil till was agreed to. Mr. Hoar, called ap the conference report on the Llll fo protect tbe 'president Mr. Bacon (Oa.) declared toe conference report Is a bill which. wlth the exception of one single sentence, had not been read Jn the.aenate. The bill, he said, la far teaching In Its character and absolutely subservient of tlm 'fundamental prlnclplea tipon which the government la founded. -' Replying, Mt Hoar Inalsted that the con ference report waa the -senate bill la Its entirety, with the exception of the mat ter pertaining to anarchists. Aldrlch Bill Dies, '. At 1 the unfinished business tbo Aid rich bill wss laid .before the senate. Mr, .'Hoar Immediately made the point that tbe unfinished business did not take precedence over a eonferebce report Replying" to a question by Mr. Teller, Mr. Aldrlch said: "After the notice served last night, t am satisfied this bill cannot pans this session.'' Mr. Quay rose and said that In all hu mility of spirit he offered a proposition, He aaked unanimous consent that at J o'clock a roto be taken on five preposl tlons before the. senate, namely the omnl bua statehood bill, the Aldrlch bill, the conference report on the bill to protect the president, the rblfllplnes tariff bill and the pure tdod bill. Mr. ' Forakcr said - he took advantage of the opportunity to say that It would be a little short of a public calamity If the senate adjourned without passing aome of theae measures. "I hope," said he "that tbo senate. will lu the early future adopt aome kind of closure. During too dtaeurslon the two new senator from Delaware, J. Frank Allee and T. Heleief Ball, were sworn amid loud ap plauso from tbe occupants of the galleriea, many of . whom, Including J. Edward Ad- dlcks, came from Delaware especially for . the occasion, YV Mr. Halt was escorted to the desk by r'Mt. Aldrlch. while Mr. Allee was accom panted by Mr. Hanna. Tbe usual oath was administered and the two senators , were eonductedMo their scats. Mr. Lodge, expressed his anxiety to hava the Philippines tariff Mil disposed of at thla session, but Mr. Teller said' there waa no mora possibility of passing It than of pass Ing the Aldrlch bill "If a closure rule existed," he said, "there would have been three new states. Tou have belled our . platform," he thundered, facing the republican aids, "and belled your professions." He declared the republicans ware afraid Of the democratic party In the west. A man was a fool who had sat In the senate and did not know it, and a coward who, knowing it, waa not willing to- declare It. lie ooncjuaoa ty pieaaing tor action regara- Ing the- truete. Mr. Lodge then moved to take up the Philippine tariff bill., which waa agreed to, displacing the Aldrlch financial bill. Mr. Patteraon opposed the bill, saying he objected to being used either by a trust or by any combination of speculatora under the plea of humanity. Mr. Bacon said even if he shared tbe apprehension with regard to the threat ened competition of sugar and tobacco he would say now is the time when the hand of relief to a desolate people ahould be ex tended. Mr. Foraker would rejoice If the Philip pines could produce 5,000,000 tona of augar. It would be a sad miscarriage of the gov ernment's duty toward those Islands If It so legialated aa to make It Impossible for a country or su.cn capacity to have no prosperity.

Aa aoon aa Speaker Henderson railed the house to order Mr. Richardson, tbe mi nority leader, attempted to make the point of no quorum, but the speaker reognlztd Mr. Payne to demand tbe ayes and nays on the pending question coming over frc-m last night the adoption of fn conference report on tbe immigration tilt. Mr. Richardson insisted tint his point was good, cut tne speaser overruiea mm and when the democratic leadsr appealed from the decision he declined eutertalrt the appeal on the ground that It was dil atory. The report waa adopted 117 to 87 The presentation of the cobferori'-e report on a private pension bill waa mado thi occasion for some good natured political chaffing. Mr. Misrs (Ind.) said It tbe re publican party waa the good friend of the old soldiers It professed to be, the house managers would bring In a rule to adopt conference reporta on the remaining pen sion bills "en block The report was adopted, 211 to t. Mr. Cannon preaented the conference report on tbe sundry civil bill. He pleaded with the minority to dispense with the resdlng of the report In extenso, but Mr. Richardson waa obdurate and refused to consent, A very' amusing scene followed. Tbe voices of the reading clerks who officiated yeaterday navlng been worn out by the ceaseless calling of the roll, a member of the capltol police force was dratted today. He had at one time been a reading cleric of the Maryland bouse of delegates and later an auctioneer. He had a fog born voice and In reading figures his tones grad aally ascended like an auctioneer tn the exercise of his profession knocking down goods to the highest bidder. The members of the bouse, as well as the spectators In the galleries, were convulsed with uncontrollable laughter, which sud denly changed to handclapplng. The new clerk, believing that aome acknowledgment of this demand waa due, suspenaea tne reading to bow right and left. This grotesque proceeding only Increased the merriment and brought down a storm of applause. The contusion became so great that Mr. Ooldfogle (N. T.) protested against the clerk's action as unseemly, and the chair waa obliged to admonish the members to order.

More than half of this amount ! cred ited to ths purchase ot food articles and Is due In a great measure to crop failures. Tbe exports show a trade of nearly $3,500, 000, being the largest monthly export ahown alnce American occupation, with the exception of that of September laat.

ALL FUNDS PRACTICALLY EXHAUSTED Care fat Ecohonay Will Bo Practiced to Avoid Increasing Overlap, bat Pay Will Ba In Warraati (or Moaths. There is but little money in tbe city strong box and It will require the utmost economy la all departments to pull through the fiscal year without making an increase in the overlap. There la no money in the fire fund and tbe members of the Are department will bave to take warrants until the next levy Is available. There la a balance of only $42 tn the general fund and thla will not go far toward paying running expenaea, ao war rants will hsve to be Issued. In tbe salary fund there Is enough to pay tbe city offt clala tor several months. Tbe public, light, Judgment and water funda are practically exhausted. - In the police fund there Is not enough money to pay tbe feed ot a canary bird for a week, while the balance ot the funds are about in tbe same condition. The amount of the 1902 levy waa $133. 655, receipta from all sources being $147,413. The total amount drawn up to date la $129, 939. Tbla Ieavea a balance on band In the various funds of $17,473. For last year tbe overlap bas been growing and aa tbe city growa naturally the expenaes Increase, so that there is an excuse for the Increased expenditure In tbe fire and police depart ments and also tn tbe street department. The water rental remains ths same as it was a year ago, for the reason that tbs Omaha Water company will not locate any more hydrants and extend malna until there Is money in sight to pay for tbe work performed. It ia the same with tbe elec tric light company, No more lights will be Installed until paat bills have been paid and there la money on hand to satisfy fu ture claims.

What is wanted la a bond laaue to clean up the overlap and to make prep arations for tbe building of sewers and the pavement -n ot certain streets which are badly in need of Improvements. Repairs to some of the paved streets .are needed, but as there is no way to secure this money at the present time, the streets will bave to go without repairs. ' The Twenty-fourth stret paring will hava to be gone over thla summer, also the L and N street paving and, portions of Q street. Still, there is no fund tor this Work, aa all of the street repair money ts needed in keeping the graded street la passable condition. An effort is to ba made, however, to Induce the council to paaa or dinances this spring tor the paring ot quit a number ot downtown attests. With the paving of streets permanent sldewalka follow and eonaequently tewer damage snlta. An attornay aald last night that tbe amount of money paid out by the city for damage claims would put perma nent sldewalka on halt the streets tn South Omaha. Ola Settlor Uavas. Today South Omaha loses on of lta old est settlers.- Mike O'Hern and his wife will move to a farm near Plattsmouth. O'Hern came to South Omaha when tbe principal streets were cornfields. He was always considered a Jolly, good fellow, and will be missed from his usual haunts. During bis fifteen yeara' residence in the Magic City O'Hern bas accumulated some property, so that now he deatres to re tire to a farm where he can spend bis re maining daya without being bothered with the cares and strenuous Ufa led by elty officials. Waat Thlrteoatk Street rise. There Is a movement on foot among the property owners In the southeastern por tion of the city to endeavor to induce tbe authorities to make some needed repairs to Thirteenth street. It is asserted that this roadway from the city limits on tbs north to the southern 11ns Is in bad abape. let year the county helped out on thla work aome and a reqneat will be made through Commissioner O'Keefte to have the county assist In this work. that is needed now. Considerable building is going on in the eastern part of tbe city and a good road Is demanded by thoae who wn property in this section. Waat Mora Walks. President Miller of the Board of Edu cation appointed a committee composed ot Morrill. Bock and Kubat to confer with the city council in regard to the conatruc tlon ot sidewalks In the vicinity ot Corrl; gan school. It baa been reported to tbe board that the puptla attending this school are compelled to walk not leas than three blocks through mud when tbe weather is soft. It Is desired by the board that; ateps bo taksn by ths council to cause walk to Off, be laid on streets adjacent to the Corrlgan school. This matter will be taken up with the comlttee on streets and alleys' some time during tbe week. As walks are being ordered laid all ovsr the city It seems probable that the council wtll pay some attention to the request ot the committee from the Board ot Education. Feeder ghlpnaeats. Last month the feeder shipments num bered li.167 bead. This is an Increase over January ot the present year and an lncreass orer February, 190$. Of the total feeder shipments nearly 7,000 head went to Nebraska feedlota, while the -balance were sent to feeding stations tributary to this market.
