CONGRESS

The Senate listened further on Thursday to a discussion of the policy of expansion. Mr. Turner (Wash., PopJ delivered a carefully prepared speech on the Vest resolution. The speech was for the most part a constitutional argument in which Mr. Turner took issue with Senator Platt and Senator Foraker upon their recent utterances. At the conclusion of Mr. Turner's argument Mr. Foraker took some sharp exceptions to statements made in the speech, especially those referring to him personally. The Nicaragua canal bill was tinder consideration nearly three hours. After much debate a substitute presented by Mr. Morgan (Ala.) for the bond amendment offered by Mr. Allison was adopted. It provides that bond payments shall not exceed $20,009,000 in any fiscal year. The amendment as amended was then adopted, 41 to 19. The last hour of the session was occupied in discission of several amendments offered by Mr. Cattery of Louisiana, all of which were defeated. The House practically decided the Brown-Swanson contested election case from the Fifth Virginia district in favor of the sitting member. Mr. Swanson, a Democrat, by declining to consider the case. The postoffice appropriation bill wsa then taken up. The greatest surprise of the day was the adoption of two amendments striking out of the bill the appropriation of $171,000 for the fast Southern mail and $25,000 for special mail facilities from Kansas City to Newton, Kan.

. The proceedings in the House were enlivened on Friday by a wordy duel between Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio and Mr. Lewis, Democrat, the member from Washington. It occurred during the debate on a private bill to refer to the court of claims the claim of Cramp & Sons, the Philadelphia ship builders, for damages from the Government for delays incident to the building of the warships New York, Massachusetts, Indiana and Columbia. due to the failure of the Government to deliver armor plate and other materials for these ships on time. The postoffice appropriation bill was passed. At p. m. the House recessed until 8 o'clock. The evening session was devoted to private pension legislation and adjournment was taken-so Monday. The Senate was in session for five hours and a half, but the session was practically barren of results.

Senator Morgan's Nicaragua canal bill passed the Senate Saturday afternoon by a vote of 48 to (L As a matter of fact, it was passed twice, once by a viva voce vote and the second on a roll call. The opposition had been dwindling away for several days. Friends and foes of the anti-scalping bills were also lined up in the Senate the same afternoon. The supporters of those measures won their first victory. Ry a vote of 33 to 21 they succeeded in having the Senate bill taken up for consideration.

Discussion of the policy of expansion occupied nearly all the time of the Senate in open session on Monday. Mr. White of California addressed the Senate in support of the anti-expansion resolution introduced by Mr. Vest (Deni.. Mo.) and an other resolution offered by Mr. Bacon (Dem., Go.) declaring that the Philippines ought to be free and independent. The Senate at 2:10 p. m., on motion of Mr. Davis, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, went into executive session. After the executive session Mr Chandler called up the lull to restore to their original status officers of the naw and marine corps who lost their status by reason of the promotion of other officers by reason of conspicuous conduct in battle. The bill went over on objection

The debate on the army reorganization bill opened in the House on Tuesday under an agreement by which the general debate is to run fifteen hours, exclusive of three night sessions. Mr. Hull and Mr. McClellan in support of the measure and Mr. Hay of Virginia in opposition divided the honors. The other speakers were Messrs. Parker (Rep.) of New Jersey and Brown (Rep.) of Ohio in favor and Messrs. Cox (Dem.) of Tennessee. Bell (Pop.) of Colorado and Latham (Dem.) of Texas against it. At the conclusion of routine business in the Senate Mr. Lodge (Rep., Mass.) delivered his announced speech upon the policy of expansion. At the conclusion of Mr. Lodge's speech Mr Teller (Col.) addressed the Senate upon a question with resjiect to the constitutional powers of the Government in the territories. Mr. Clay (Ga.), one of the Democratic Senators who expects to vote for the ratification of the treaty of peace, then addressed the Senate on the general question of territorial expansion.

Not since the stirring days before the declaration of war last spring has the House witnessed such an exhibition of excitement and such scenes of unbounded enthusiasm as occurred on Wednesday when the two Republicans. Mr. Johnson, the Indiana member, and Mr. Dolliver of lowa, locked horns on the question of expansion. The army bill was under debate. At the night session Mr. Crumpacker (Rep., Ind. I supported the bill and advocated annexation. Mr. Rixey (Dem.. Va.l opposed the lull. Mr. Linney (Rep.. N. C.) supported the lull. Only a brief time was occupied by the Senate in open session. Air. Hale, chairman.of the Committee on Naval Affairs, reported the naval personnel bill and gave notice that at the earliest time possible he would call it up for consideration. Mr. Cullom <lll.l reported the legislative appropriation bill. Mr. Chandler (N. H.l introduced a bill temporarily creating the office of admiral of the navy. It was referretLto the Naval Affairs Committee. A senate bill providing for the erection of a building in Washington for the department of justice at a cost of $1,000,000 was passed.

WEARY OF WRANGLES

PTMliiiit Emlwt to Step the Bickeriaa* in the Army. A Washington correspondent nwrti that the President is profoundly displeased with the scandalous wrangHngs of army officers, which have been so conspicuous in the past few months. While he is ms st anxious to act as a peacemaker, he will stop these useless bickerings in the army and put an end to the possibilities of further scandal, even if he has to order several more courts martial to accomplish his purpose. The strained relations between the general in command of the army and the War Department proper win not be eased by the punishment of Commissary General Eagan. It is the genera! belief that Miles has been deliberately seeking trouble. Considering the directness of the evidence which will support the charges and specifications, it can make little difference to Gen. Eagan who tries him. He will be convicted of conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman and conduct prejudicial to good order and military discipline. The sentence of the court will be dismissal from the service of the United States, and it will remain with the President to approve or mitigate the finding. It has been the President’s desire to censure Gen. Eagan for his extraordinary language, and he would have done so without a court if the precedents would have permitted. The President Tuesday announced at the cabinet meeting that he had decidel to order a court martial to try Commissary Genera! Eagan for the abusive and violent language he used respecting Gen. Miles before the war investigating commission. Prior to the cabinet session the President held a conference with the Secretary of War and Adjutant General Corbin. It was brief, but the action to follow Eagan’s utterances was decided and when the cabinet met the President announced he had reached a decision in the matter. He said he had determined there was only one course to adopt and that was to order a court martial convened to try Eagan. The decision met the Approval of the members of the cabinet. There was some discussion following the President’s announcement. in which the case was threshed over to some extent, though the President himself took little part in the discussion. The details of the action were left to the Secretary of War.

CIVIL WAR RAGES IN SAMOA.

Followers of the Rival Chiefs Engage in Conflict. Civil war is again raging in Samoa. Advices say that the controversy between the rival candidates for the throne in succession to the late King Malietoa has resulted in armed conflicts. Chief Justice Chambers derided that Malietoa Tana was elected to the throne. Mataafa and his followers refused to accept this decision and took up aims. Much property has been destroyed and many persons killed or wounded. The German cruiser Falke and the British cruiser Porpoise were endeavoring to sappress the uprising. Several thousand of Mataafa's followers defeated 2,000 of the followers of Malietoa Tann. ambushing them and killing and wounding many. The rebels burned 400 houses and destroyed the town of Upoln. They hate cut down many fruit trees. No foreigners were injured.

TO STUDY PORTO RICO.

President Will Send Commission to That Colony. President McKinley is arranging for tha appointment of a colonial commission for Porto Rico somewhat similar in scope to that appointed to go to the Philippines. The commission will exercise the functions of an advisory body, and will probably include as ex-officio members Maj. Gen. Guy V. Henry, commanding the military department of Porto Rico, and Commander A. S. Snow, in charge of naval affairs there. The commission will advise the President as to the proper method of dealing with Porto Rican questions. Its report will be transmitted to Congress when it is desired to establish a permanent form of government in Porto Rico.

Bandits Raid a Town.

Four bandits rode into the town of Vian, I. T., on the K. & A. V. Railroad, and while three of them stood guard, the fourth broke into Allen Bro#.’ general store, dynamited the safe and secured $l5O and a number of checks. The Vian Trading Company's store was next visited. Here the safe was also blown open and S2OO taken. Citizens appeared in the streets, but were driven back by the fire from the bandits' revolvers. The robbers then rode off.

Mob Lynches Negroes.

Two negroes. George Call, alias Toney, and John Shaw, alias Fisht, met death at the hands of a mob in Lynchburg, Tenn. There is no dew to the identity of the lynchers. The negroes were about 18 years old. Ropes were around their necks and it was the intention to hang them, but the negroes showed fight and were shot to death. The negroes were whipped by White Caps a year ago and run out of town, but returned.

HON. JOSIAH B. ALLEN,

Of the Supreme Court of Ohio, Had La Grippe—Praises Pe-ru-na.

Dr. Hartman is receiving hundreds of letters every day about his famous remedy for la grippe. Ordinary remedies seem of no use. Pe-ru-na is the only remedy that entirely eradicates this stubborn disease from the system. The reason for this is that Pe-ru-na is a scientific catarrh remedy; it cures catarrh la all stages and phases. La grippe is epidemic catarrh. Hon. Josiah B. Allen, Clerk of the Supreme Court of Ohio, writes Dr. Hartman on the subject of la grippe as follows: Columbus, 0., April 16, 1897. The Pe-ru-na Drug M’f’g Co.: Gentlemen —I have been afflicted with a disease, commonly known as la grippe, every winter since that disease was discovered. I have tried many remedies without success. This spring I was induced to try a bottle of Pe-ru-na. I have now taken two bottles and have received much benefit therefrom. In fact, all symptoms of the disease seem to have left me. Therefore I cheerfully recommend the virtues of Pe-ru-na. Yours truly, Josiah B. Alien. Address The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company, Columbus, Ohio, for • free book on catarrh, written by Dr. Hartman, entitled “Winter Catarrh.”
