SHINGTON, May The chaplain, in his invocation at the opening of the session yesterday, paid tribute to those who through the horrors of Hale, chairman of the val affairs, offered resolution which w at the temporary and af late of pas 1s, war. committee on the following us agreed to: ne and staf nd confirmed to © exige u red in the ex sso appointed shal “with rar shed by ex » appropriatic s reported from the mili- rs committee by Senator , of Montana, and passed, pro- iding that the pay and allowance of the volunteers enlisted in the United States army shall begin on the day of their enrollment at the state camps with a proviso that volunteer troops sent to the Philippines may draw one month’s pay in advance. It was ex- plained that the bill applied only to those who have as volunteers entered the United States army. On motion the consideration of the war revenue measure was resumed, Senator Jones, of Arkansas, taking the floor. He presented in a general state- ment the views of the democratic members of the finance committee. Ile believed that taxation that would raise $150,000,000 would be amply suffi- cient to be carried by this bill, and if the exigencies of the war should de- monstrate that more money was needed, congress could provide it late He opposed the proposition to issue bonds and certificates of indebtedness far in excess of the requirements of the war. Without reaching any agreement as to what portion of t bill should be considered first, the senate proceeded with the reading of the bill, with the understanding that at any time sen- ators should have the privilege of re- turning to passed items for their amendment or alteration. At the re- quest of Senator Martin, of Vi a the tobacco schedules were passed over for the present without action on the committee amendments. Senator Chil- ton, of xas, offered an amendment to section 5 providing for the punish- ment of offende gainst the act. The words “with intent to evade the pro- visions this act” were inserted by the amendment. It was agreed to. At this point Senator Allison presented tables showing the amounts of the or- dinary appropriations for the ne fiseal year. They aggregate (less 000,000 for the sinking fund) $480, S49,- BS2. At three o’clock the bill was laid aside and Senator Hale. of Maine, pre- sented a resolution in memory of the late Seth L. Milliken, a representative from Maine. Eulogies were pro- nounced by Senators Hale, Mills, Car- ter, Rawlins, Gallinger and Frye. At the conclusion of the addresses the senate, at 3:50 p. m., as a further mark of respect, adjourned. of THE HOU WaAsHINGTON, May 18.—The house held a brief session yesterday. Two important bills affecting labor were passed, one limiting the labor of per- sons employed upon government works and in government service to eight hours daily, and the other providing for the equipment of a non-partisan labor commission to consider legisla- tive problems affecting labor. Mr. Corliss, of Michigan, called up the house bill to repeal the law pro- viding that transmission of the elec- toral vote of the states to Washington shall be by messenger. The bill pro- poses transmission by mailand express and was urged by Mr. Corliss in the interest of economy. ‘The present method costs $20,000 every four years. The bill was defeated after a pro- longed conversational discussion in which many members participated.
