Most of the democratic senators disapprove quiring the Philippines at any price. Those who believe the American flag should re- main over them insist that the islands are y right cf cenquest.

W. E. CHANDLER, U.S. Senator from New Hamp: © (Rep.). Trenton, S. C., Oct. 31—I am opposed to payiag any sum of meney to Spain for the Philippines, and am equally oppesed to holding them as conquered territory. But if we de rir ce ion, we should not assu on that account, and we etould then sell them to help pay the ex- pens2s of the war. B. R. TILLMAN, vuth Carolina (Dem.). U. S. Senator from § Jackson, Miss., Oct. 81.—The retention of the Philippines, which I approve, can be justified only ag a legitimate result of Span- ish outrag> and American victory, aside frcm the original question of humanity. I would pay Spain not one dollar more for lands than she has paid for the ered Americans of the Maine. Spain tated this war; let her pay for it. Philippines are ours by conquest, not by purchase. ‘ SULLIVAN U.S. Senator from Mississippi (Dem.). Sioux Falls, S. D., Oct. 31.—I am not in favor of acquiring the Philippine Islands at any price. They should be allowed to form a government of their-own. All gov- ernments derive their pow2rs from the con- sent of the governed. R. F. E U. S. Senator from S STTIGREW, puth Dakota (Silver.).

Man is the most won- derful piece of machinery in the world, yet no matter how strong and well-made his bodily frame may be, if the fire of life within him is not constantly fed his limbs and muscles become powerless and useless. The reason men become helpless and diseased is because the food they eat, which is the fuel of life, is not properly digested and appropriated by the stomach and nutritive organs. It is not completely transform-d into the strength and working power which is to man what steam is to the engine. That wonderful power-making ‘Golden Medical Discovery,”’ invented by Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N Y., imbues the human diges- tive juices and blood-making glands with capacity to extract abundant nourishment from the food. It builds up organic tissue, nerve fiber, hard muscular flesh and work- Beautifully carved mahogany -tinish upholstered in rich quality of damask, .

He writes: “I received ir kind letter, and in reply would say that mine was a bad case of kidney and liver trouble, and that six bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and four bottles of litte ‘ Pellets * effected acomplete cure. It is well known that almost every engincer is troubled more or less with kidney trouble, especi- ally on our fast express trains. I run one hun- dred aud forty-four miles on these trains every day in the week, and have had uo return of the trouble since taking the remedies, megsly three years ago.” ow IN ANNUAL SESSION —— (Continued from Second Page.) aypointment of proper juries of award composed of experts in the case of all com- petitions, and to provide for the expenses of each juror, as well as for the payment of a moderate and proper fee. “For the first time in its history. the in- stitute has established a permanent head- rters. As is eminently proper the per- manent home of the nationa’ organization is located in the national capital. “In the march of events the institute has cutgrown its code of jaws, and under a new constitution you are now called upon to consider a new code of by-laws. It is a matter of regret that so large a part of the time of this convention must be of neces- sity devoied to this subject, and it is earn- estly hoped that your consideration of the stion may be so careful and your de- 8 so Wise that the time of future con- is may be free for the discussion of venti« the mass of subjects of more general in- terest than the minute details of interior organization.”” Report of the Directors. Secretery Stone read the report of the beard of directors, which stated that the institute is entering upon a new era in its history, which is fraught with no little anxiety. “The step it has taken is without prece- dent, as no similar society has broken away from the commercial metropolis of the ccuntry and established its home in the national capttal. It may, therefore, prop- erly be called an >xperiment, and is one which will depend for its success upon the individual and united efforts of the mem- bers of the institute, and may easily prove to be a failure without such effort.” Th report calls for a manifestation in the way of increased membership, and then discusses the question of a permanent home for the institute. It recites the passage of a resolution lest F2bruary authorizing the lease of the “Octagon house’ in this city, at a rental of $360 per annum, for five years, and tells of the ultimate accom- plishment cf the object by a committee composed of Frank Miles Day, Robert Stead and Wilson Eyre, jr. “Today,” says the report, “we shall open and enter upon the occupation of our new home, and the enjoyment of the fruits of their labors. The passage of this vote was the outcome of a report of the Washington Chapter, presented to the board of di- rectors at that time. Among the advan- tages set forth were that it afforded the broadest field for the institute to obtain national legislation in relation to art and struction; that it could here more ef- ficiently advocate the establishment of a government testing station and a national architectural museum, and would be in a position to make its influence felt in the methods adopted by the government for procuring designs for national buildings. This has been successfully inaugurated, it is declared, under the direction and by or- der of the Secretary of the United States Treasury, Lyman J. Gage, an honorary member of the institute and an efficient supporter of the best interests of the pro- ssion. Pennsylvania's Capitol Ballding. Continuing, the report says: “At the last annual meeting the conduct of the competition for the Pennsylvania state capitol furnished an engrossing topic of consideration, but without producing the desired result. In fact, the outcome is, if possible, still m screditable to the state than w: but in other quarters there hav Several novable competitions which have been conducted with fairness and in compliance with ethical rules of practice, although they may not have resulted the in- al satisfaction of each and ‘y individual competitor, and it is improbable that the publicity which as given to the action of the institute in the matter of the Harrisburg capitol has had even greater effect than if it had re- sulted In the adoption of the course ad- vised by the institute. “It is believed that the state of Pen vania has but entered upon a_ gigantic eheme which will extend through many irs and be productive of still other and larger results to the discredit of the and with heevier demands upon its tr v’ of the failure of the Penn- to ‘yl- Library building, it has been sugg a distinguished member of the New York ar that the institute appoint a committee to have power to employ legal counsel to prepare a form of programs of competi- tens and have it recognized in legal enact ment and oréinarces authorizing commis. sicners to secure an architect by means of competitions; such an act or ordinance might make it legally incumbent upen a corporate bedy or even upon a state itself to pay promised fees, which the state of Pennsylvania successfully dodged, with no legal redress for the architects ‘employed “There is, however, something stronger than legal enactments by state or city, and that is a recognition of the unwritten law of ethics, which a professional body establishes for its own conduct, and which will be respected by the public and will be complied with to just that extent with which it 1s respected by the profession and complied with by its practitioners. “It may be expedient to procure legal enactment, it is imperative that our prac- in accordance with professional Deceased Members. The report states that the deaths among the fellows of the institute since the De- troit convention have been: F. A. Coburn of Cleveland, Ohio; Alfred Smith of Chica- go, and Elbridge Boyden of Worcester, Mass., and Charles Garnier, an honorary member. The Board recommend corre- sponding memb2rs, Prof. W. C. Sabine of Harvard University, Prof. G. P. Merrill and Dr. Cyrus Adler of the Smithsonian Institution. The treasurer's report showed receipts amounting to $3,716.08 and payments of $4.01, leaving a balance of $382.07. Washington Chapter Report. Secretary Stone read the reports of the various chapters. Tha of Washington Chapter, J. C. Hornblower, president; E. W. Dorn, jr., secretary; stated There are twenty-seven practicin three junior members; two new practicing Members have been elected and three ju- niors dropped for lack of interest. “Meetings have been held on the first Friday of every month, with the exception ot the months of Jun July and Avgust. The average attendance has been eight. The chapter celebrated its tenth birthday in January, 1898, i “During the year there have been monthly exhibitions of drawings and ‘om positions.”* Reports of sixteen other chapters were also read. ~ and oreign Correspondence. Chairman Jenney of the committee on foreign correspondence raised many iaughs by his report, which gave extracts from printed notices relating to the first inter- national congress of public art at Brus- sels. These were in incomprehensible and malapropian Engiish. This is a sample: “The Public Art, organ of the National Belgian Action, to create an emulation among the artists by tracing a practical way ir which this works inspire general interest—to apply id artistic form to all that conserns the public contempera! life— to render to art {ts former social micsion, by applying it to the modern Idea in all the domains governid by the public author- ities.” Standard Electrical Rules. The report of Alfr2d Stone, delegate to the national conference on standard elec- trical rules, stated: “The delegate from the institute to the rational conference on standard »lectrical rules attended, by invitation of the elec- trical committee of the National Under- writers’ Association, a meeting of said com- mittee and took part in its deliberations and th? consideration of the national elec- trical code. “It is the desire of the conference that the institute shall elect a delegate to r2p- resent it at future meetings of the confer- ence, or of the electrical committe> of the Underwriters’ Association, for the purpose of taking part in the deliberations for the amendment of the code, as occasion may require.” The By-Laws. After a brief recess, the convention took up the proposed by-laws recommended for adoption by the committee on revision, ecmposed of Robert D. Andrews, Geo. Keis- ter and Geo. C. Mason. These were dis- ctss2d and acted upon until it came time for adjournment. At 2:30 p.m. the archi- tects were received by President McKiniey | 1ANN & ay The Corsét.

In the field, as in the army and navy, it is understood, the men behind the guns do the business. Messrs. Bud Brown and A. L. Nutting, two of the best trap and field shots in this section of the country, are trying their luck twenty miles up in Maryland along the Potomac. Mr. Campbell Carrington did not get out today, but he left for High Point, N. C., all the same, where he will spend the next two weeks with his dogs and gun. Major Richard Sylvester and Mr. George Rouzer are out in Montgomery county, near Rockville, where there are numerous coveys. In every near-by section other well-known Washingtonians are having a good time, and bird stories will take the place of fish yarns for the next month or 80. —E Cheap Publicity.

President Szegedy occupied the chair at the meeting last evening of the ¢ abor Union, and Mr. J. L. Feeney secretary. The most important question brought up was the subject of the election of a dele- gate to the coming convention of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor, whicn meets in Kansas City, Mo., December 12. Previous to the nominations of candidates for the position the body placed itself on record regarding the matter of suffrage in the Dis- trict of Columbia by adopting a preamble and resolution by a large majority, setting forth that “having learned from experience that the disfranchisement of the residents of the District of Columbia is inimical to the interests of local organized labor, there- fore the delegate who shall represent the Cc. L. U. in the eighteenth z 1 conven- tion of A. F. of L, is hereby ructed to favor and use all honorable mean: tle to secure the indorsement by that © vention of the resolutions adopted t body, declaring for the right of suffrage in the District of Columbia, and which will be reported upon by the executive council of the A. F. of L. at the coming conven- tion.” For the place of delegate there were nom inated N. C. Sprague of the Pressmen's Union, W. E. Thompson and J. F. MeCor- mick of Columbia Typographical Union, and Henry Lewis of the Machinists’ Union. On the third ballot Mr. McCormick wus vlect- ed by a small majority over Mr. Lewis, the others being withdrawn after the sec- cnd ballot. Mr. W. R. Bradford resigned the posi- tion of financial secretary, and Mr. J. 8. Briggs of Stereotypers’ Unton was elected to the vacancy. Delegates from Pressmen's Union, Brick- layers’ Union and Plate Printers’ Union were admitted and obligated. ——— All Washington an Audien The Star's “Wanted Help and Situations” columns are carefully read by thousands daily.
