LITTLE W0RKF0R CONGRESS
Neither Resale Xor Hease Likely 1o
Hare atreaaeas Time Daring
Week.
WASHINGTON.1 Jan. 14.-In congress tha
tutlook doea nat promise a very Interest
"ng week. Tha senate haa no clearly d
lined program and the calendar wa so
completely denuded by tha vigorous work
of last week that unless there la consider
able discussion of the bill which have
right-of-way the propped la not good for
much business. Tha merchant narlne bill ,
hold the place of unfinished business each
day after 1 o'clock and the pore food bill
haa the preferential place during tha morn
ing hour. There I not apparent, however,
any disposition on the part of any large
number of senators to press either mees-
ure to a speedy termination. Senator Oal-
linger. In charge of the shipping bill, and I
Senator Herburn, who haa been Intrusted J
wtth the food bill, are both alert to the
situation and will lose no opportunity to
advance the Interests of those measures,
hut both have so far shown a disposition
to wait on senator who may desire to be
JifWdien the bllle- and who are not yet
prepared to proceed,, . Senator Mallory will
probably speak tomorrow on the shipping
bill and the pure food bill doubtless will
be made the aubject.of more or less con-
' sideratlon, not only tomorrow but on other
days of the week. Senator Lodge has sug
gested' a number 'of amendments to It,
, and other senators' will follow his exam
ple In that tester. Time will be re
quired for these changes, and until they
are. accomplished the bill will not be al
lowed to- stand In the way of other meaa-
. urea In which there Is Immediate Interest.
Senator Tillman will be heard during the
, week on hi resolution, relative to ' the
situation In- Ban to .Domingo and there are
Intimations that the , Moroccan question
wilt be revived by the -introduction of a
. , revised resolution on that subject.
- If the Philippine tariff bill passes the
lious- It will reach the senate early in
the week and be promptly referred to the
committee, but -It cannot be reported for
some time, . The bill will bo stubbornly op
posed in the senate.
The tommlttee on Isthmian canals will
begin the actual work of Investigating the
Panama canal situation on Tuesday. It la
expected that the canal committee will
make a report on the nomination of canal
' flommlssloncr and when the report Is made
-here will be more or less discussion of
h" canal situation In the senate, but It
will take place In executive session.
By reason of the fight against the Joint
statehood bill, house -leaders will have
. some difficulty In providing business for
all the days of next-week. It had hereto
fore been the intention to follow the Philip-
. pine bill with the statehood bill. It has
been decided to -postpone at least for a
week the .reporting of- the statehood bill
from committee.. Thl. leaves the business
. of the week now In sight simply the finish
ing of the Philippine -bill and on day of
- pension legislation
.- Monday is to be the last day of general
- debate on the Philippine bill. Tuesday will
be taken up for . amendments under the
five-minute rule. Tha requests for time to
peak under the general debate order Indl
cate that many speeches' will remain to be
delivered .under the .five-minute rule, and
the order has gone forth that there shall
be no restriction to this 'demand. Two or
even three days may elapse under this
' order before the final vote la taken on the
.JMU.-.V ,
"r In the meantime the appropriations com
. ml t tee la working dally to perfect the
. urgent, deficiency -appropriation bill. . This
, pleasure was to have been ready the first
''fft the week, but owng to the thoroughness
m , with which . the committee has gone Into
the necessity of the, urgent deficiency ap
propriations, for the purpose, as Chairman
yTny puts.lt, of ending the practice of
. departmental 'appropriations, the bill will
not be ready until the latter part of thla
'" week or the first of the following week.
Pension legislation has been made ready
for house action and one day will be given
to private pension bills Immediately follow
ing the passage of the Philippine bill.
Should nothing be ready for action after
pension day the bouse may decide that Its
labors In general debate on the Philippine
bill have. entitled it to a rest and a holiday
may be taken Saturday by adjournment
from Friday until, Monday.

PARIS, Jan. 14. (Special Cablearam to

presslon of the black slave trade in West
Africa are being taken by M. Clementel,
colonial minister. It Is stated that the traf
fic la csrrled on i.ulte boldly In Benegal,
both by whites and blacks. A Frenchman
not long ago even went to the extn-me of
hiring a number of Moorish villains to
carry off a young negress from her family.
The patents of the girl protested and the
Frenchman was arrested, but was liliei-ated
after a few days on the ground that the
lam- relative to Illicit traffic could not be
"applied to him. "iTiis case and others of a
similar nature were reported to the colonial
minister,' who resolved to act with vigor
and to put down all attempta to revive the
black slave trade In Senegal and elsewhere

How to gave the Boya.
Lincoln city officials and cltlsens are
wrestling with the question, of how to save
the boys. During the last two weeks, be
tween twenty-five and thirty boys, ranging
In age from 14 to 18 yeara, have been ar
rested for burglary, and In many Instances
the boys -have confessed to having entered
nd robbed boxcars, stores, offices and res
idences. Some of those implicated belong
to highly respected families, the heads of
which have on occasion been honored with
public office and who have always taken an
active part in the -upbuilding of the town
and who have long been Identified with Its
improvement and progress.
The burglaries have been extended over a
long period of time and until recently no
one auspected that the act were being com
mitted by Lincoln' own sons. When the
arrests were made and to the police the lit
tle fellows admitted their guilt and Impli
cated numerous other boys, the news camo
as a shocking surprise to all of Lincoln.
Boys who havs been highly respected and
whose lives were supposed to be all that the
life of a young' rhan should be have con
fessed to crimes 'that none but hardened
criminal would1' have been suspected of
committing. Many of the youngsters have
been sent to the reform school, others are
out on parole and still other are awaiting
trial and are out on bond furnished by a
father or some member of the family.
When the arrests were first made the police
were roundly denounced by deceived par
ents and suit for damages were threatened
but as the little fellows began to make their
confessions parent have Joined with the
police In an effort to provide some mean
by which the little fellows can be saved
from a further life of crime.
Where Crimea Were Planned.
A number of the boys who are old In
crime have told the police that they made
their headquarters at the pool rooms and
in such places they said they got their
knowledge of crime." . Here they met with
their fellows and planned their raids across
the pool table.
As a result of this statement by the boys.
Mayor Brown ha ordered the closing of
every pool room In which boys are allowed
to enter. Last summer he Issued such an
order and for atlme the police were vig
orous in enforcing the order, causing a
number of arrests of managers of pool
rooms. Latelv, however. It Is stated the
rule has not been vigorously enforced and
minora have been permitted to congregate
and play pool. To the police yesterday
Mayor Brown Issued an order that the first
time he heard of a boy being In a pool
room located on the beat of any policeman
that policeman would be removed.
The police intend to proceed against the
parents of boys in the future tinder the
act passed by the late legislature provid
ing for the punishment of parent for aid
ing or abetting in the delinquency of their
children.

Juror A. Allen of Waverly, whose Illness
necessitated a postponement of the Wsre
conspiracy trial over Saturday until Mon
day morning, has about recovered his health
and the trial will be resumed thla morning.
The first witness to be placed on the stand
will be John C. Blue, for cross-examination
It I, believed that his cross-examination j
will be very brier.
The next witness to be called will be J
Frank W Lambert, the alleged gobetween
for Rev. George G. Ware and the soldiets
and others who made the fraudulent filings. ;
Lambert Is expected to produce some very
enaatlonal testimony regarding his close
relationship witn ware ana as nis principal
agent In procuring the fraudulent filings.
Lambert paid the expense of filing, hotel
expenses, etc., for the soldiers and others.
The government expect to prove that Lam
bert was but the agent of Ware, and that
It was Ware's money that' he was handling.
It la pcMible that Lambert will be on the
atantf "iy and tomorrow, as upon his ev
idence ng the principal hope of the gov

The fact that Lambert Is to testify is an
