DEFICIENCY BILL IS PASSED
Senate Approres i enure u Reported by
the Committee.
SHARP DEBATE OVIR CANAL SECTION
lrevlsln Abrogating Elght-Hn
Uw lithmii Is Allowed
to Stand After Long
Dlacnaalon.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9. Almost the en
tire session of the senate today waa de
voted to the consideration of the urgent
deficiency bill, which was passed practically
as It was reported from the committee on
appropriations. The only discussion In con
nettlon with the bill was over an amend
ment suggested by Mr. Patterson to strike
out the provision relieving alien workmen
on the canal from the operations of the
eiglit-hnur law. Mr. Patterson contended
that to require men to labor more than
eight hours a day In the tropics was In
human and srgued that the requirement
would do injustice to American labor. Sev
eral senators on both sides of the chamber
l!ontfoverted the position. "
Would Amend Statehood Hill.
At the beginning of today's session of the
senate Mr. Foraker presented an amend
ment to the statehood bill, directing the
method of preceding In Arlaona and New
Mexico on the question of admission. It di
rects thst within thirty days after the ap
proval of the statehood bill the governors
of the two territories shall respectively call
elections for submitting the question of
statehood.
Voters of the two proposed states shall
vote separately and the union shall not
be consummated unless a majority of tho
rotes In each territory are cast In the
affirmative.
The urgent deficiency appropriation bill
was laid before the senate and read at
length. Mr. Patterson moved to strike out
of the deficiency bill the provision abrogat
ing the eight-hour law on the canal son.
He argued that the provision was adverse
to Americans as well as aliens.
Mr. Money opposed the Patterson amend
ment. "What It all means In plaln.brutal Eng
lish Is that there Is being prepared on the
Isthmus a slaughter house for aliens and
that the canal Is to be built at a fearful
cost not only of money but of life," re
sponded Mr. Patterson In persisting In
pressing the amendment upon the senate.
Mr. Oalllnger called attention to the state
ment of the canal officials that sanitary
conditions on the Isthmus were much Im
proved, and Mr. Patterson replied that
these statements did not correspond with
the testimony given by senators.
Tillman Replies to Patterson.
Mr. Tillman also took Issue with Mr.
Patterson, saying that "when the Colorado
senator makes an appeal for alien labor
he would better look a little closer home
and consider the American laborer, who
In the end must pay for building the
canal." He made an appeal for a com
mon sense course In dealing with the canal
and for the exclusion of can't from the
consideration of the question.
Mr. Patterson withdrew the amendment
ha had offered and offered another fixing
the limit of a day's labor on canal work
at t,en hours Instead of eight.
The amendment waa lost. Mr. Tillman
expressed dissatisfaction with the relation
ship between the canal commission and
the Panama Railroad company and said
be hoped the canal committee would find
means pf unifying the canal and the road.
.Mr. Hale agreed with the statement made
by Mr. Tillman as to the desirability of
tdolng away with the dual arrangement.
The bill was then passed and at 3:08 p. m.
the senate went Into executive session and
adjourned at 8:15 p. m. until Monday.
Is raised to the point which does away
with the discrimination against American
goods.
Low grade and children's shoes are
placed In a lower class, making the tariff
less, as Mr. Payne stated, to secure the
wearing of shoes In the Island.
No one wished to debate the bill, which,
was passed without objection.
At 1:31 o'clock the house adjourned until
Monday.
PENSION DAY IN TUB 1IOU9E
roar Hundred and Twenty-lf lne Bills
Taased In Seventy-Two Minnies.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 9. The house to
day ground out Its usual semi-monthly
grist of private pensions, passing in seventy-two
minutes 429 bills for the benefit of
veterans who are barred for one reason or
another from coming In under the general
statute. Sever.ty-flve per cent of the bene.
flclarles are either blind or bed-ridden.
This order, with a numoer of minor kills
and the passage of two amendments to
the Philippine tariff act of 19JS, constituted
the transactions of the day. The tariff
amendments place American cotton goods
on an equality so far as the cost of pro
duction Is concerned with European goods.
Ijow grades of shoes were admitted 'at a
lower tariff.
The house adjourned until Monday.
Pension leglslntlon had the right-of-way
In the house today. The calendar contained
( X senate bills. 191 house bills and one cor
reetlng a military record.
Seventy-five per cent of these Mils are
for the benefit of persons either blind or
bedridden.
Before taking up the pension Mi's the
bouse voted to ndloum until Monday at
the close of today's session.
It also paused bills as follows:

A'lthoHrln the secretrv of trr

A bill to amend the Philippine tariff act
was called up by Mr. Payne (N. Y.). chair
man of the ways and means comm. t tee.
He explained that the bill related to cotton
goods and shoes.
The cotton manufacturers In this coun
try, he said, make goods twenty-two Inches
wide. European manufacturers weave In
double this width and then cut the strip
In the center, thus saving half the cost.
These goods are known In the trade as
"false selvage'' goods, on which the rate
MAGOO BErDRfl THE COMMITTEE
Governor of Canal Zone Says Con
ditions Are Improving.
WASHINGTON, Feb. I. Charles E. Ma
goon, governor of the Panama canal sone,
was before the senate committee on ln
teroceanlc canals today and gave his testi
mony In connection with the Investigation
of the canal wnr.
In response to a request from Chairman
Millard, Governor Magoon outlined condi
tions on the Isthmus when he was as
signed to duty there last spring. . He had,
he said, found an excellent organization
for the government tone, but that the men
there were much overworked and very
anxious over the effects of the reorganiza
tion. No removals were adopted. The
sanitary force was also wtll organized and
it had done and is now doing excellent
work;. The government had been especially
fortunate in securing In. that force a num
ber of army men who had been engaged In
the sanitation of Cuba.
Governor Magoon contended that fever
conditions In Panama are better than
formerly.
Under examination by Senator Morgan
th question was raised whether the
courts, a constituted by the Isthmian
Canal commission, could deny to an Amer
ican citizen his Inherent right to trial by
Jury when charged with a capital offense.
Judge Mngoon said that presented a serious
question.
In a general discussion nf th nitit
Senator Knox said he should not lik in
decide what the ruling of the United States
supreme court would be in this matter.
Jury trials are not had In the canal zone,
nor In the Philippines, and in the latter
me supreme court had upheld the system
as arplied to the trial of a native Filipino.
Senator Knox suid he could not say what
the difference would be If an American,
going to possessions of the United States,
were tried and convicted In like manner.
a recess was then taken.
At the afternoon session Judo-a
continued his explanation of the govern
ment of the canal zone. He said that the
apparent 40 per cent profit mado by this
government through the purchase and use
of Panama stamps surcharged "canal zone"
wouia not pay the cost of the postal service
In the zone. He testified at length con
cerning land titles in the inna an oaM
legislation would be necessary to adjust
many or mem. About half of the lands
there are claimed bv nrlvutn nanio. n
explanation given by Governor Magoon of
tne interest the United States had In es
tablishing the Panama currency was that
the use of American money doubled the
price of everything, as the people wanted
as many silver dollars worth 100 cents as
they had received pesos worth so cunit tn-
articles sold.
Discussing the necessity for the coinage
system, and the agreement to maintain
parity, and the .associated banks' agree
ment to supply silver to tho commission,
Governor Magoon said that the new cur
rency became so popular that it was al
most Immediately absorbed by commerce.
Senator Morgan ajsked if the United States
ehould not establish a subtreasury on the
Isthmus to aggregate the necessary silver.
Governor Magoon replied that that could
be done, but that as rapidly as the silver
waa shipped to the treasury and paid out
It would disappear and never come back:
that the people liked the money because It
was stable and It drove out all other cir
culating mediums. "That la about the
most logical free silver 'plan exploited
since Mr. Cleveland" began Senator Mor
gan. He had meant to say Mr. Bryan, but
after a pause be completed his observation
as he began and repeated, "since Mr.
Cleveland disappeared." The examination
of Governor Magoon will be resumed Mon
day. '
PHILLIPS AND JOHNSON TRIAL
limber Cutting; on Blackbird Island
Xest Case on Federal Court
Docket.
The next case to come to trial before
Judge Munger In the United States district
court will be that of the United States
against George F. Phillips and William I
Johnson, who are under Indictment for
cutting timber on public lands on Blackbird
Island. The Island is a part of the Omaha
Indian reservation and was filed upon by
Phillips and Johnson through an Iowa
land office under the presumption that the
island was open for public entry. The
parties at once began to cut a lot of valu
able timber from the land, against which
the Omaha Indians protested, as they held
the Island was a part of their reservation.
The island was resurveyed and It waa
found the contention of the Indians was
correct and the entries of Phillips and
Johnson were cancelled. Suit was there
upon brought against Phillips and Johnson
for trespass and illegally cutting Umber on
government land.

B.G INCREASE IN RAILWAY EARNINGS
Nearly templet Reports for
January Sbow Cain t 16.
Per Cent Over Year
Ago.
NEW TORK, Feb. 9.-R. O. Dun Co.'a
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Distribution of heavyweight wearing ap
parel, fuel and other seasonable inerchan
di.se expanded rapidly In rt-nponse to the
more normal temperature, but the week's
business has not depleted the accumulation
of last month, and retail slocks of tuess
goods are sthl burdensome. Heports are
much more satisfactory, however, and an
Impetus has been given wholesale trade
in spring dry goods and other forward busi
ness depending upon conlidence In con
tinued national prosperity. Jobbing re
turns and manufacturing statements Indi
cate little Idle capacity, the luudtng in
dustrial plants having added to tnelr al
ready heavy contracts on hand. Mercan
tile collections are prompt as a rule, al
though some extensions aie asked. Com
modity prices are fairly steady, no im
portant variations ' occurring during the
lost week. The only adverse development
of the week was the less pacific news from
the coal fields, although a strike may be
prevented by agreement any time btiore
April 1. Reports of railway earnings for
January, now fairly complete, show an
Increase of 16.6 per cent over last year's
figures, whlie foreign commerce at this
port for the last week made a most strik
ingly favorable comparison with the same
period In 1106, ' exports gaining 0,oStO,6So;
while imports increased $iii6,WJ.
Iaus urgency to place orders for Iron
and steel products during the last week
is a satisfactory development, because It
testifies to the absence of speculative oper
ations that might easily produce unwhole
8ome inflation of prices. Yet the last
week was by no means devoid of new in
quiries, particularly In regard to the
structural steel for lake vessels and manu
facturing plants.
Seasonably poor quality of hides has
weakened the tone of the maiket, the only
firm department being packer branded
hides for sole leather. New business In
boots and shoes Is quiet.
Failures this week number 229 in the
United IStates against 2n6 lust year and 23
in Canada with .7 a year ago.

FIR ADSTR EET"S RF.VIF.W OF TRADE
Ontlook far gnrln Jobblnsr Business
Is Generally Favorable.
NEW YORK, Feb. 8. Bradstreet's tomor
row will say:
Reports as to spring JohblnR trade are of
a vtry favorable character and more sea
sonable weather has stimulated some lines
cf retail trade. Shipments of finished
products of nianufacture are of enormous
volume nnd mills are still pushed to till
ordeis previously booked.
Railroad earnings returns Indicate that
January was the most active ever experi
enced by the companies, gross receipts
showing a gain of 20 per cent over last
year, a very active period likewise. Re
ports ns to winter wheat are satisfactory
as a whole. Against these favorable fea
tures are to be cited the disquieting In
fluences of predictions and preparations
for a general coal strike, possibly involving
6' 10,000 men. It Is also to be noted that the
mild weather has caused an accumulation
of retail stocks of heavy clothing, shoes
and kindred products and eliminated re
order business from Jobbing hands, though
western reports speak of possible earrlcd
over stocks being quite well reduced, con
sidering weather conditions. -That buyers
are disposed to buy conservatively for
fall Is reported In the lines affected, notably
tnen's wear, woolens and shoes.
Money Is easy and collections range from
only fair to good, accordingly as the sec
tion of the country Is considered. Price
movements of leading staples are generally
toward ease and eume recessions, as for
Instance, pig Iron, develop new business.
Detailed telegrams to Bradstreet's report
a generally active appearance to all lines
of spring Jobbing trade. The northwest,
central west, the south and the east all
Rive testimony to confidence In buying
lor the nearby season. Cottons, silk and
dress woolens are all active, but men's
wear woolens for fall delivery lag. The
cold v is said to have come too late
to help the fur trad. Raw wool is active
on manufacturers' buylnx and prices are
firmer. Lower raw cotton prices have not
yet affected the goods market, which Is
strong. 8ome revival In export trade with
China Is Indicated.

IOWA CITY. Feb. 9. (Special.) Two
dates are being considered for the coming
F.W HARNESS RACIM4 RVI.15S
Stewards of Incorporated Track Cir
cuit to Have Control of Contest.
CHICAGO. Feb. 9.-A satisfactory ad
justment was reached on sll queatlons un
der discussion by the Grand Circuit Trot
ting Tracus and the American National
Trotting association at the rules commit
tee meeting here today. As a result ot tne
final negotiations there will be vresented
at the congress of the National Trotting
Rssoclatlon to be held In New York next
week a rule which reads as follows:
"Any circuit of five or more tracks be
longing to either the American or National
associations may, after Incorporation, haw
the authority to appoint racing stewards,
who shall have full power over the ruclna
at the tracks of tiio circuit. The names ol
tnese stewards shall be submitted to the
presidents of the American and National
associations, and if the nominations aro
agreed to by both the parent associations
tney will constitute a governing body for
the circuit by which they are named; act
ing Jointly for the tracks and the parent
associations and their decisions shall be
binding until the close of racing on the
circuit for which they act."
Another matter of which the conference
took notice is the making of the time
tecords by trotters and pacers. At present
the rules governing trials against Mm are
not observed in spirit by soni of the
tracks where trials are made. A new rule
was formulated which provide, amoug
other thlnas. that not only must the meet
ings at which time trials take place be
in every respect bona fide, but also that
the events aside from the time trials mak
ing up each day's program must be real
contests In which every horse tries all the
time. ,
A stop nlso Is to)e put to tne practice of
having three colts making up a so-called
race arranged for the purpose of giving
each animal a mark about a fast as it can
go.
During the conference here the P.eglster
association held Its anntial meeting and
elected tilflcers for the ensuing year. An
other step taken was to decide that here
after, In order to he registered at half the
iKiuul rate, application on behalf of each
colt must bo mado before the animal la a
year old. Heretofore applicants were eligible
up to the age of 2 years. Officers were
elected as follows:
