For several years cultural experi- ments have been carried on in Texas by Mr. W. H. Wentworth, from the Egyptian seed distributed by the department with a view to the production in this country of Egyptian cotton. A serious obstacle to success has been the need of a proper gin to separate the seed from the lint, the ordinary gin injuring the cotton to a ruin- ous degree, but this has heen overcome by a special form of gin. The engineer ex- pert of the Agricultural Department states that the cotton produced from the Egyp- tian seed planted in Texas is stronger than the native Egyptian, as is indicated by the yield per hour in ginning. This was seven- ty pounds per hour the first day and seven- ty-six and nine-tenths per hour the see- ond day. The manufacturers of the gin used claim only fifty pounds,per day as the output of the native Egyptian. The lint from this test .will be examined and further reported upon. The imports of Egyptian cotton are stead- ily increasing ana now amount in vaiue to over $5,000,000 agpually. With the ginning question settled: those who are interested in the growth oftigyptian cotton in Texus claim that prodtictiofr in this country is assured. ea ate ATTORNEYS.

Extension. Topics Discussed at Association Mect- ing— Question of Suffrage —Com- plaint Against Express Charges. ‘The regular monthly meeting of the Co- lumbia Heights Citizens’ Association was held last evening. The attendance was large, and despite the fact that the hall Was: so cold as to necessitate the wearing of overcoats and hats during the meeting, two hours were cons imed in disposing of very little business. President M. A. Ballinger laid before the n.eeting a communication from Mr. Thomas G. Hensey, the chairman of the central committee of the District Suffrage Associa- tion, inviting the Columbia Heights Asso- clatton to send a delegate to the meeting of the committee, and stating that if de- sired a representative would be sent to the Columbia Heights Association to address its members on the question of local suf- frage. “IT move,” said Mr. Patrick O’Ferrall, “that the commun‘cation be laid on the ta- ble. The object cf the suffrage association is entirely foreign to ours. So we had bet- ter attend to getting what our section needs and not so running after something we do noc want. Rallway Extensions. Mr. O’Ferrai!’s motion was adopted wit cut a dissenting voice, and then Mr. Bal- Enger submitted a report from the exec tive committee on the subject of railroad extension. The committee, it was reported, is doing all in its power to get an exien- sion cf the lines of the Metropol:tan com- pany northward from 10th street and Flor- ida avenve to Lydecker street, and thence eastward through Mount Pleasant, and the energies of the committee have } are veing directed to securing thi sion by whatever route it can be i committee steted that the extension is a paramcunt consideration and the route a secondary matter, and urg¢d every mem- ber of the association to present to repre- sentatives and senators the necessity for granting the necessary right of way for the extension at this scssion. The Metro- politan company, the committee said, is ready to commence builcirg the extension the moment there is a law to authorize its ecnstruction, The report gave rise to a long discussion of railroad extension, and while it was finally adopted by a vote of 25 to 10, it was not until after Mr. Campbell had moved to rescind a resolution adopted at a previous meeting, approving of the 13th street route for the extension of the Metropolitan line. During the discussion the statement was made by Mr. O'’Ferrail that the expert electrical engineer of the Metropolitan road has decided that the Sherman avenue route is not practicable, because of engineering aifficulties. “Who is the electrical expert of the Metropolitan company?" inquired Mr. Campbell. “Why, Mr. Coleman, the superintendent or secretary of the company, O'Ferrall. “I never knew that before,” remarked Mr. C. 8. Bundy. “On the one hand we have this alleged electrical expert and on the other the District Commissioners, who are presumed to know just as much and to have had the benefit of expert testimony in the matter. They have reported that the Sherman avenue route is not impracti- cable, and have pointed out that the Metro- politan company proposes, in going out ith street, if they can, to go over the most difficult part of Sherman avenue.” ‘The matter was generally discussed, it being evident that every member desired an extension of the Metropolitan line into the section, and that the exact route should be left to Congress. Mr. Campbell's mo- tion and others were finally laid on the table and the report of the executive com- mittee adopted. The Central Committee. The association appropriated the sum of $5 to cover the entrance fee of the asso- ciation into the proposed central commit- tee, to be formed from the various citizens’ associations, and Messrs. W. H. Saunders, A. 8. Brown and Lester A. Barr were ap- pointed alternate delegates. A letter from Mrs. Marion Longfellow O'Donoghue, complaining of additional ckarges by the express companies for ex- press packages delivered north of Florida avenue, was referred to the special com- mittee on that subject. A resolution offer- ed by Mr. Tanner,asking for an appropria- tion of $10,000 for the completion of im- provements on Kenesaw avenue and Park rcadway, and one offered by Mr. Calhoun, asking for an appropriation of $5,000 for Kenyon street, were adopted. The follow- ing were elected to membership: Joseph Miller, B. S. Platt, J. W. McKinlay, Ray- mend Porter, Clarence Allen and John W. McChesney. replied Mr. SE REGULATING TELEPHONE RATES, Amendment to the District Adopted by the House. After The Star's report of the debate on the District appropriation bill closed yes- terday, Mr. Shafroth’s amendment to re- uce the police force was defeated. Mr. Berry of Kentucky made a raid upon the telephone rates existing in this city, ard was joined by Mr. Pitney of New Bil Jersey, a member of the appropriations committee, who offered the following amendment “Provided, That from and after the pas- sage of this act it shail be unlawful for any person or any telephone company do- ing business in the District of Columbia to charge or receive more than $90 per an- num for the vse of a telephone on a sep- erate wire; $40 for each telephone, there being not more than two on a wire; $30 for ch telephone, there being not more than three oa a wire, and $25 for each telephone, there being four cr more on the same wire. The amendment was adopted after de- bate. Mr. Berry said: “The charge for telephones in Washing- ton is the most extravagant of any city that I know of in the United States. The monopoly here charges $130 for private telephones, whereas in other cities they only charge from $30 to $50. The dividends upon the stock of the telephone company in the city of Washington are very extrava- gant. “I am stopping at a hotel where they pay $130 for a telephone, and yet I cannot com- municate with the next hotel without drop- ping a dime into the slot. That is in addi- tion to the $130 that they receive from the rent of the telephone paid by the proprie ters of the hotel. If there is any remedy for the people of the District of Columbia through this body, I want to call attention to the fact that the rates of this company are wonderfully extravagant in the city of Washington. I want to know, if I can find out, what rentals we are paying to-this ex- travagant corporation?” Mr. Dockery said: “Mr. Chairman, J am very glad the gen- tleman from Keutucky has brought this matter to the attention of the House. Of course, this general subject does not, under the rules of the House, come before the committee having charge of this bill. But I have an impression, amounting, in fact, to @ positive conviction, that the telephone service as now operated is perhaps the most odious monopoly in this city save and ex- cept the gas monopoly. Possibly the tele- REFUSED TO LAY IT ASIDE Senator Thurston Wanted to Postpone Con- sideration of Annexation. Outline of Yeste of the Hawaiian Question jay Afternoon'’s Dis- Executive Session. Tho friendly feeling of the Senate toward the Hawaiian treaty was. plainly shown yesterday afternoon during the executi session. When the session was opened Senator Thurston made a motion for the Pestponement of further consideration of the treaty until the Ist of March. The mo- tion was no: discussed at length, and was voted down viva voce. Senator Platt of Connecticut made a carefully arranged argument in favor of annexation. He. spoke for about an hour and a half, and dwelt particularly upon the importance of the acquisition of the isiands from a commercial point of view. He contended that our commerce would, in all cases, follow our civilization, and urged that we should use every legitimate method to extend our trade with outside nations, as by pursuing this course we would aiso extend our institutions apd ideas of gov- eznment. The Hawaiian Islands he re- garded as essential to the command of the trific on the Pacific ocean. No nation in the world’s history had ever be om= pros- Perous or really great that had not as- siduously built up its foreign -ommeree. He commented favorably upon Uh tendency in this country towari an ex- tension of our trade with the outside world, and said th: tendency should be encouraged by the government. The na- tion that controlied the Sandwich Islands would command the key to the Pacific, ard we should iake them and if ne ry for- tify them for the purpose of making sure of our position in this most important trade. Attitude of the Sagar Trust. Senaior Platt charged that the sugar trust was opposed to annexation. He said there were certain aid not name, who were suppos nti- fied with the trust, who had a grievance against the present government of the islands, and alieged that ty were veing all the means at their command to prevent the acquisition of this country by the U: ed States. He said that moucy was bi used to this end. He did uot charge, said, that there was any effort to corrupt Congress, but he thought that some inter- ests had been unduly influenced. He urged upon the Senate the importance of not giv ing ear to the representations of the tr and said that on the contrary the U States should extend the hand of broth: hood to this aister republic of the Pai fie which was so anxious to join iis fortunes with our own. Mr. Platt spoke at some lengi overthrow of the monarchy ani the estab- lishment of the republican form of gov- upon the ernment now in existence. Jt had, he said, been one of the boasts of this country that we bad ever been ready to iend ail and comfort to countries in this hemisphere which manifested a disposition to adopt our form of government in preference to the forms of the old world. and that we were now afforded an opportunity to dem- orstrate our real sincerity in this profes- sion. He spoke also of the character of the men constituting the present Hawalian government and said it was such that we tcok no risk whatever in entering upon an alllance with them. At the conclusion of his address Senator Platt was generally congratulated upon the logical character of his argument. Mr. Pettigrew'n Attack. Senator Pettigrew took the floor as soon as Mr. Platt had concluded, devoting him- self especially to replying to the Connecti- eut senator's remarks concerning the pres- ent government of the islands. He made &n analysis of the constitution under which the Dole government exists, showing that it had been adopted by what he termed an alleged constitutional convention com- pesed, he said, of nineteen members, one of whom was Mr. Dole, who had ‘be: members of the committee on safety which played such a prominent part during the revolution and of eighicen other dele- gates. He argued that while these latter Gelegates had been elected by what was called 2 popular vote, such was not the case. Of 14,000 persons entitled to suf- frage he asserted that only 4,000 had voted for them. This convention of thirty-seven persons thus chosen had adopted the con- stitution, and it had never been submitted to a popular vote. Mr. Pettigrew dwelt upon the fact that Mr. Dole had been a member of this con- vention and said that gentieman had had himself elected president of the republic, and that in doing so he had practically ar ranged the matter so as to insure his per- manence in office. He read the constitution to show that Mr. Dole was named in it for president and that it was provided that he should re- main in that office until the year 1%, or until his successor should be elected. The successor was to be chosen by the house aud senate sitting together, and there was to be no eleciion of any one unless ho re- ceived a majority of the vote of the sen- ate. He then attempted to show how the mat- ter was practically in the control of Mr. Dole and of the sugar growers. Accord- ing to the terms of the constitution a sen- ator must possess $3,000 worth of property or have an income of $1,200 per annum, and a person who was not worth $1,500 in taxable real estate or had an income of $600 was disfranchised from voting for a senator. This qualification practically, he said, shut out all persons except those connected with the sugar industry from either becoming senators or from voting for senators. He held that in view of the facts he mentioned the present government was practically a monarchy. Mr. Pettigrew also took up the conten- tion that the sugar lands in the islands were already practically appropriated and producing and argued that to annex the islands would mean the inevitable destruc- ticn of the sugar beet industry in the United States. Senator White's Opposition. Senator White of California also spoke in opposition to the ratification of the treaty. His was in the main a constitutional argu- ment intended to show that the annexa- tion of territory which would require a navy to defend it had been from the be- ginning opposed to our theory of govern- ment. He quoted extensively from the works of Thomas Jefferson to show that he had never contemplated the acquisition of territory situated, as were the Sand- wich Islands, where a fleet could be neces- sary to their preservation. This remark did not, however, apply to Cuba, which was |-So near our own coast that no navy would be necessary to its control and protection. Mr. White also read from President Ty- ler's message, which he said was popu- larly supposed to have been written by Daniel Webster, practically maintaining, as the senator said, this same point. A large part of Senator White's remarks was given up to quotations from Secretary Sherman's utterances upon the subject of annexation of Hawaii and comments upon them. Mr. White read liberal extracts from Mr. Sherman's book, in which the Secretary dwells upon the unwisdom of making the islands a part of the United States, and he laid especial stress upon the Secre- tary’s remarks in the latter part of his book to the effect that he hoped there would be no further effort to annex the islands during his lifetime. Senatcr White had not concluded his argument when the Senate adjourned. He teok occasion to remark in reply. to Sena- tor Platt’s eae that oorlaore post — vas opposed to t! treaty that most of! the laces who were popularly believed to be interested in the sugar trust were favorable to the treaty. —— Tally-Ho Coaches at Chickamauga.

Some Excelient Specches Made by Distinguished Soma of the Time- Honored Institatton, The glories of old Harvard were sung iN song and told in story at the regular annual banquet of the Harvard Club last night. The club is composed of the alumni of the university, aad boasts among its member- ship graduates of over half a century. The banquet last night was the fifteenth anni- versary of the local club, and was in many respects the best ev@r given by that organt< zation. The banquet wes held at Rausch- c's, amd the decorations were artistic and beautiful. The crimson flag of the univer- sity was largely in evidence, and the color Was brought out in bold relief in incandee cent Ughts, which were a feature of the decorations. Behind towering palms in one corner of the room was stationed the or- chestra, which rendered appropriate music throughout the evening. Judge Edwart Lander, the president of the club and the coldest living graduate of Harvard in Wash- ton, presided with his usual dignity, and, thongh far advanced in years, lent a geet to the occasion that was refreshing.

At the request of the.owner, the cattle wilt be tested with tuberculine, for which the state shall pay $1 per head, including tu- berculine, to be paid to the inspector. Another important feature of the bill is that all persons supplying milk to the cities will be required to register their herds with the live stock sanitary hoard. and for failure to comply with this recu- lation the fine shall be not less than $19 nor more thar $50. —_.—__ MONETARY STATISTICS.
