To its accompaniment they fovght at Sedan. MONEY FOR FORTIFICATIONS Appropriations Bill Passed by the Senate Yesterday Afternoon, A Definite Policy to Protect the Great Cities on the Sen Coast—House Figures Increased. At the close of the executive session yesterday afternoon the Senate proceeded in open session and passed the fortifica- tions appropriation bill. In the course of a statement concerning the bill Mr. Perkins said that the com- mittee cn appropriations was unanimous in fits action in increasing the aggregate sum appropriated by the House bill. Every member of the committee was in favor of peace, but all realized that the best way to preserve peace was to be prepared for war. The increases, he ex- plained, were in line with a definite pol- icy adopted by the government to fortify our great sea ccast cities. Mr. Perkins said the committee was not unmindfui of the condition of the treas- ury, but all thought it would be a picayun- ish policy to cut the departments’ esti- mates so seriously as they had been cut by the House of Representatives. Mr. Stewart thought that the appropria- tions should be increased, so that there should be no mcre tall about the defense- less condition of the coasts. He moved to increase the amcunt for gun and mortar batteries from three to five millions, the full amount of the estimates of the War Department. Mr. Chandler (N. H.) wanted an increase made upon powder and projectiles which could be immediately available. Mr. Stewart said that if we had trouble ee com ine oucakest power, more prop- erty would be destroyed than th2 carried in the bill. eed Mr. Hale said the appropriation had been doubled over the House and brought the appropriation up to nearly ten millions yearly, which was thought best. Mr. Gorman oppos2d the increase, saying the country could not, in view of the pres- ent condition of the finances and for other reasons, afford the increase. At a time of “rumors of war from all parts of the world,” Congress should give all the money that could be prop2rly expended, but there was no necessity for going farther, especially as this country was in no appar- ept danger of war at the present time. Mr. Stewart said we did not carry on our negotiations with foreign governments in a proper manner because cur great cities were not properly protected. Mr. Hawley favored lib = ae y r eral appropria. Mr. Lodge advocated a steady policy lcoking to th> proper defense of our sea- coast cities. The House bill was inade- quate and represented a narrow and poor pelicy. He did not believe in economy at the expense of the national defense. Mr. Teller opposed the proposed increase, seying it was better to leave the amount as fixed by the committze He agreed with those who did not consider a war among the early probabilities, but that the time of peace was the time to prepare for war. Still the indications were strong for a gen2ral war, and while the United States might escape by drawing its head into its shell ilke a turtle, still we, as a great na- len, should be prepare 7 = pene prepared for any emer. Our Duty in Cuba. Here Mr. Teller made an evident allusion to the concition of affairs in Cuba, saying it was our plain duty when a nation was conducting a war upon our borders con- trary to international law and the rules of humanity to step to the front and tell that nation it must desist, let the conse- quences be to us what they might. He did not believe in any knight errantry or that the country should go about with a chip on its shoulders, but the country must at all times he prepared to perform the part of ‘a great nation in any emergency. He had, in times of fee'ing, said that he would yote for no more increases of ships and but that was one of the ich he thought it better should be broken than maintained. We would de- spise a stréng man who would not defend k child from a brute, and on the same principle a great nation would he ex- Fected to defend an abused people under the same circumstance: Mr. Teller 2iso spoke incidentally of the Hawaiian question, saying that a London newspaper had said t if the islands should be annexed we would not be able to protect them against the superior sea pewer of Jaran, for instance. This asser- tion would not amount to anything if it vere not true, but unfortunately it was true, and if the United States wanted to become anything more than a hermit na- tion and escape war only by submitting to insults it would have to prepare itself to teke part in the affairs of the world. Hence he was in favor of a liberal allow- ance for ships and for coast defenses suffl- cient to maintain the dignity and the honor of the republic. He not only wanted to provide the ships, but he believed in send- ing them where they were needed for the protection of our pzople and occ to places where thelr presence manded in the interest of the human race; to a country, for instance, which would starve its own people in the conduct of a var which was opposed to all the accepted tenets of modern civilization and justice. If, he continued, we had said to Spain two ye ago. as he had thet id they ought to say to that country, “You must our war according to civilized usage he believed that fully a quarter of a_ million lives would have been saved. These were the agencies not only of war, t of pence, and were necessary to nain- tain the glory and dignity of the country. Mr. Stewart withdrew his amendmeat. On motion of Mr. Pettus the appropria- tion for the construction of sea walls and embankments was increased from $30,000 to $55,000. Mr Lodge offered an amendment auther- izing the Secretary of War to secure the use of any invention of an army officer de- sired to be used by the Secretary 1 pon the payment of a royalty to the inventor, to be determined by the Court of Claims. The amendment was agreed to. An amendment offered by Mr. Chandler increasing the amount appropriaied for pewders and projectiles for a reserve sup- ply for armament and fortifications from $650,618 to $050,618 was accepted. ‘This completed the consideration of the bill and it passed without division. At 6.05 o'clock the Senate adjourned. - BUILD ON YOUR OWN LAND. A Man Whe Lost a House on His Neighbor's Land. From the Chicago Times-Herald. This appears to be the moral of the de- cision of the supreme court of Minnesota in the interesting case of Coleman Bridge- mann, who was unfortunate (or negligent) enough to erect a house on what he thcught was his own land, but which turn- ed out to belong to a neighbor. The lower courts having held that he had absolutely no right or title to the house, he appealed to the final tribunal, but the legal principle applicable to the case is too plain and too well established to permit any deviation from it. The supreme court agrees with the lower ccurts in denying his claim either to the house or to lien against the lot on which it stands for {ts value. Even the removal of the structure without in- jury to the land would not be permitted by the law. There is nothing novel in the ruling, but it shows that the law will make no dis- tinction between the case of one who knows he builds on the land of another and one who honestly but erroneously claims title to another’s land. The struc- ture becomes part of the land when erect- ed or while belag erected, and the owner of the land gets the house. In some cases this fundamental doctrine of the law of real property doubtless involves some hard- ship, but the equitable principles con- cerning accident and mistake cannot be in- voked to afford relief or redress. Depar- tvre from the law would perhaps entail more injustice than rigid enforcement thereof. Let the man who intends building a house make sure he has valid and unchal- lengeable title to the let which is to sup- port it. ~ When in doubt defer building until the question of title has been thoroughly settled. Surely this is not too much to ask of men intelligent enough to have acquired property. Still, a high moral standard would compel a man deriving a substantial benefit from another’s mistake to offer him, of his own accord, some compensation. The law will let him alone, but his con- science may not. THE EVENING STAR, MR. MORRILL'S OPPOSITION The Vermont Senator Against Annexation of Hawaii. _ Speech in the Executive Session of the Senate Yesterday Afternoon Re- ceived Careful Attention of All. —— The entire time of the executive session of the Senate yesterday afternoon was taken up by Senator Morrill of Vermont, who spoke against the ratification of the Hewalian annexation treaty. ‘There was more than usual interest in tke speech, owing both to the advanced age of the senator and to the fact that he is the only republican senator who has so far spoken in opposition to the treaty. He read from manuscript and recelved the careful attention of all senators present. Mr. Mcrrill’s speech was intended to show that the acquisition of the Hawallan Islands would be against both good policy and the traditions of this country. He had always stood against the acquisition of distant lands and was still opposed to that pelicy as one calculated to undermine the integrity of the republic. Mr. Morrill took up most of the questions which have been discussed in connection with the treaty, ¢ealing especially with the subjects of the strategic importance of the islands to the United States, with their commerce, their population and with the difficulty of assimilating them so as to render the islands desirable as an in- tegral part of the United States. He said that commercially Hawaii's importance kad been vastly overrated, and contended that annexation would result in the in- evitable destruction of the beet sugar in- dustry of the United States because of the frability of American labor to compete with the coolie labor employed on the Ha- walian sugar plantations. From a military point of view he argued that the control of Hawaii would be a source of weakness rather than of strength, because a navy would be required for its defense in time of war, while in time of peace we should not need the islands on this account. Senator Morrill quoted with especial em- phasis a letter from Daniel Webster, dated in 1843, advising the maintenance of the independence of the islands, and closed with an appeal to the people of the United States to continue this policy. He sald the great danger in annexation was that scme party would some day make of the islands a state of the Union for the sake of secur- ing two United States senators friendly to its purpeses; that this could be accom- plished by a bare majority in both houses of Corgress; that no effectual precaution could be taken against this course of ac- tion, and that when it was accompifshed the country would then see its great mis- take. He contended that annexation was lhatle to cause a spread of leprosy to the United States, and quoted medical autnor- ities on this point. The Senate, he said, owed it to the coun- try to refuse to ratify the treaty and thus to do its part to sustain the honor and dignity of the republic. We should not, like the aristocratic nations of Europe, go into the policy of annexing distant islands, for if we should do so, we would find our- selves like those countries greatly en- tangled in the course of time. Spain's trouble with Cuba should, he said, be ac- cepted as an object lesson by the United States at this time. —__—_-+o+-—_____ BONES OF AN ELOTHERIUM. The Animal is Long Extinct, and That Fact Accéunts for Its Name. From the Rocky Mountain New The discovery of the entire skeleton of an elotherium in the Bad Lands, fifty miles eost cf Rapid City, S. D., has aroused con- siderable interest among paleontologists. The valuable find is accredited to Prof. O. . Farrington of the Field Columbian Mu- scum of Chicago, and the bones have been shipped to the windy city. The interest in Colorado is partly due to the fact that Prof. O. C. Marsh, twenty- seven years ago, discovered a skeleton in the northeastern part of Colorado, the first of the species found. Prof. George L. Can- non of the East Denver High School, who is a paleortologist of note, learned of the discovery in the Bad Lands with interest and gave scme interesting bits of informa t:on concerning this ugly beast of history Prof. Marsh, who has lored a large portion of Colorado in search of evidence of prehistoric life, says the genus_elother- ium, established by Pomel in 1847, repre- sents a family of extinct animals, all of much interest. They were found first in Europe, but are now found in the miocene beds of North America, not only on the Atlantic coast, but especially in the Rocky mountain region and still further west. The family includes several genera and sub-genera and quite a number of species, scme of which contain Individuals of large size, only surpassed in bulk among their contemporaries by members of the rhinos- ceros family and of brontotheridae. Re- mains cf the group have been known for nearly half a century, yet until recently ively little had been determined with certainty regarding the skeletons. The adult individual, when alive, was more then seven feet in length and about fcur feet in height. The basis of the res- toration by Prof. Marsh is the specimen found by him in 1870 in the miocene beds of northeastern Colorado, and described in r Looking at the skeleton, the most triking features are the large and pecu- liar skull and the elongated and slender limbs and feet. The most notable points in the skull are the long, pendent process of the malar bone, characteristic of some of the sloths, and the strong projection of the lower jaw. Another feature of the skull is the very small brain case, which proves that the brain itself was very di- minutive. This was also true of the other known species, and was probably the main reason which Jed to the early extinction of the whole group. The slender, highly specialized limbs and feet are likewlse par- ticularly noticeable in restorations. They indicate clearly that the animal was capa- ple of considerable speed, and thus must have been of great service as a protection from its enemies. ——— INFLUENZA IN LONDO! Another Tidal Wave of Grip Said to Be Coming. Frem the London Mail. During the last few weeks London prac- titioners have realized that influenza is once more adding to their work and their anxieties. It can hardly be said that there has been a new outbreak, for the affection has never been absent from the mstropolis since its reappearance just eight vears ago, says the British Medical Journal. The deaths directly referred to this dis- ease, which had been 15, 29 and 43 in the three prec2ding weeks, declined to 40 dur- ing the week ending Saturday last, Jan- uary 15. Of these 40 fatal cases, 7 were of persons under forty years of age and 12 of persons aged betw2en forty and sixty years, while 21, or rather more than one- half of the total deaths, were of persons aged upward of sixty years. East and Central London have be2n hitherto practi- cally free from fatal influenza, nearly all the deaths from this cause recently record- ed in the metropolis having occurred in West, North and South London. The dissase appears to be most fatally prevalent in Kensington, Maryleoone, St. Pancras, Newington and Lambeth, Speak- ing generally, the recrudescences are of short duration, attaining their maximum intensity in about thrse weeks, and dying out in about eight. There is reason, there- fore to hope that the present epidemic will not be of great severity. The influenza is spreading rapidly in Paris. So many postmen are on the sick list that the delivery of letters is consid- erably retarded, while all the governm2nt offices, banks and other large establish- ments are short-handed. It is estimated that nearly one-third of the children att2nding school at Epernay are suffering from the complaint. eee A Vineyard in Prohibition Kansas. From the &t. Louis Globe-Democrat. Owing to the strict provisions of the Kan- sas prohibitory liquor law, it was not sup- posed that there was any extensive busi- ness being conducted in the manufacture of wine in the state, but the Doniphan Vineyard Company has reported to the secretary of state that it hag on hand wines worth $23,771.21, and that last year its own- ers divided among themselves in profits $3,538.24.

New Efforts to: Revive Courtesies at Sea. From the London Daily! Mail. The fine old custom of speaking passing ships {s rapidly dying out among the skip- pers of today, and the general opinion seems to be that the modern master Is, as a rule, too easy-going to bother about any- thing of the sort. Latterly, however, the matter has been taken up by Col. Hozier, the secretary of Lloyds, who considers that a deal of trouble and anxiety would often be avoided if captains would but take the trouble to speak ships within reading distance of their signals. In many instances anxiety with respect to cverdue vessels would be allayed, and, furthermore, be news for the friends of masters and for the hundreds of thousands of others who are interested in the great merchant marine of this country. Chatting the matter over, Capt. Froud, the secretary of the Shipmasters’ Soctety, said: “The practice of speaking each other at sea and reporting at every opportunity is, I am sorry to say, dying out among the captains ot the present day. I suppose they are indifferent, or careless, and do not con- sider it worth the trouble of hoisting the signals and making out the other fellow’s. It is a very great pity that an exceedingly useful custom should be neglected, and I am glad to learn that Col. Hozier is doing his utmost to induce masters to speak other ships, and to report whenever it is possible. “fam convinced that if captains can be persuaded to take the trouble to do this much good service will be rendered to the pubiic generally. This society is doing its utmost to get masters to revive the prac- tice, and I want the Daily Mail, which has, I notice, made an important improvement in its shipping columns by the addition of a list of overdue vessels, to help us in the present matter.” Capt. Froud’s appeal was strengthened by the picturesque evidence of an old-time skipper, who admitted that speaking and signaling had been almost entirely neglect- ed of late years. ‘When I first went to sea,” he said, “it was the invariable cus- tom to exchange names and destinations and sometimes reckonings with passing ships, but nowadays captains don't bother. Sometimes a skipper is short-handed, and he won't take even one man from his work, but mostly he doesn’t bother himself about the thing at all, That's my experience, and I've been at the game a week or two. ~-e2-—____ Snakes on Ice. Jamestown (N. D.) Letter in Minneapolis Journal. The following snake story is different from the usual order of these veracious tales—it can be vouched for by more than a dozen residents of the immediate vicin- ity of Pleasant lake, Benson county, where the scene is laid: Recently C. W. Mendelhall and. Frank Hamman, while removing straw from an ice house preparatory to again filling it with ice, found on the bottom of the build- ing beneath the ice a layer of snakes near- ly a foot in depth. The snakes were coil- ed together in a solid mass, and on being disturbed began squirming and ‘hissing in a truly frightful manner. They emitted a nauseous odor. The snakes were from a foot to six feet in length and large around in proportion. The reptiles were animated by being exposed to the air, and one of the large fellows, with a quick movement, coiled himself agound Mr. Hamman’s ankl With a wild seream of “Oh, my God Hamman leaped to the door of the ice house and ran down the hill, and could not be persuaded to return for some time. After the removal of the chaff there was exposed to view a mass of squirming, twisting reptiles. But the chilling air soon rendered them hors de combat, and their removal began. Measured in a bushel basket, there were twenty-three basket- fuls. As the snakes were removed from the building they were piled beside the road in a long windrew, where they were viewed with astonishment by the residents of the place. On Saturday tle Trozen snakes were hauled out on the prairfe by E. E. Greene. They were pitehed into the wagon with forks, and it was necessary to make two trips to remove all ef them. —_——re+-_____ Porto Rico Tobacco Excluded.

The owner fixed no price, but would sell. “I'll give you $3.50 a head and round them up myself, or $6 a head, you to deliver them at the corrals.” A contract was made on the latter basis for 600 head. The owner found the job of collecting those burros a big one. They were wild and free and objected to captiv- ity. Since August last from six to ten men have been busy with lariats, and they have just finished the work.
