The bill reimburses the surviving officers and men for the losses they sustainea to an amount not to exceed a year's and directs the payment of a sum equal to a year’s pay to legal hei of those who perished. There w quite a spirited debate over an au y Mr. Cannon “h year’s to reimburse them for actual losses, Some old alleged scandals in connec- tion with the reimbursement of the survivors of the Samoan 4d ter were raked up, but the debate in the end w aved from a rather sordid tone by nutiful tribute paid to the nt dead by Mr. Cousins of Iowa short but eloquent speech. He d the galleries to spontanec applause when he said that while the vultures might be watching over the dg waters of Hava rbor for the belated dead, above all the eagle's pie ng eye W watching for the truth. The remainder of the day was occupied in the consideration of the old claim of John Roxch, the shi builder, for 1,000. No action was taken upon the claim. in the Sennte. After the tcansaction of some routine business in the senate Mr. Bacon of Georgiz introduced an mendinent which he announced he would offer to the resolution providing for the an- nexation of the Hawaiian islands to the United States. The amendment provides that the resolution shall not be effective until the question of an- nexation shall have been submitted to the qualified electors of Hawaii and passed upon affirmatively by them. The amendment is the same which Mr. Bacon offered to the Hawaiian tr y and which is still pending. Mr. Allen of Nebraska secured the pa of a resolution calling upon the tary of the interior for information as ‘to the number of all classes of pen- sioners, including the percentage of men and women and children carried on the pension rolls.

In the course of hi rgument Mr. Ca 'y said that he wanted the whole quarantine power in the hands of the United States govern- ineni, the on thority which could make a quarantine effective, and, he added, he v as strong state’s rights advocate as any man. “We want,” said he, “a central quarantine author- ity upon which resonsibility may rest.

Washington, March 24. — A word picture of the horrors and bar- ities of concentration on the Is- land of Cuba was drawn in the sen- ate by Mr. Gallinger of New Hamp- visited there. shire, The senator Cuba to study the Jong before the senate convened t galleries were packed. Almost soov as the senate convened Mr. Ba- con of Georgia introduced a joint reso- lution declaring that the United States should do everything in its power to preserve peace with all the nations of the world and not be forced into a war except to preserve the hon- or and dignity of the nation. He said that he would not ask for immediate consideration of the resolution, but would permit it to lie on the table un- til to-morrow. Then Mr. Hale of Maine, chairman of the naval affairs committee, quietly arose and favora- bly reported the bill providing for a relief for the survivors of the Maine catastrophe. There y murmur of expectancy in the g: but the measure was read and ps without a word of debate. Mr, linger’s speech followed. He spoke in a low, clear tone of voice, distinctly audible throughout the ch There was not a word of inter by word throughout h peech. auditors listened intentl, scription of the horrors and cruelties suffered by the reconcentrados. When he declared, however, that a gov ment that would starv people would do anything, and fol- lowed this with the further dec tion that the lives of the brave men lost in the Maine disaster could not be atoned for with gold or silver, a spontaneous wave of applause swept over the galleries and the vice presi- dent had difficulty in restoring order. When be had concluded he was ac- corded a burst of applause which the viee president made little effort to re- strain. The senate then quietly resumed consideration of the bill making fur- ther provision for a civil government in Alaska, and at 2 o’clock took up the wationa! quarantine bill. Its consider- recently situation ation had not been concluded when the senate adjourned. in the House, R. T. Thorpe was given the seat from the Fourth Virginia district. Sidney P. Epes, who obtained the cer- tilieate of election, was unseated by a party vote—151 to 120. The Re- ans, without a break, voted for ‘Thorpe and the Democrats and Pop- ulists, with the exception of Mr. How- ard of Alabama, voted for Epes. Mr. Thorpe contested the seat of Mr. Kenney in the last congress and was seated. he Republican majority in the house, which was 52 when the house convened last summer, is now 54. Mr. Rhea of Kentucky and Mr. Hay of Virginia spoke in Mr. Epes’ favor, and Mr. Thorpe addressed the liouse in his own behalf. At 5 o'clock the house adjourned. Washington, March A scene, dramatic in the intensity of its inter- est, Was presented in the senate dur- 25. — ing the delive by Mr. Thursten of Nebraska of a speech on the Cuban situation. Not since the inauguration of Pres- ident McKinley have so many people been on the senate side of the capitol. The galleries were packed with peo- ple, many of whom had arrived at the capitol as early as 9:30 a. m. in order to obtain — seats Even the diplomatie gallery, which ‘arely oc- cupied, was filled, among those in it being Senor Mendonca, the Brazilian minister, and par ex-Secretary of State John W. Foster and Mrs. Fos- ter and many ladies and gentlemen from the various foreign legations. Within a few minutes after the sen- ate convened every senator who could be present was in his seat, and by the time Mr. Thuston had begun, his speech dozens of members of the house w either standing or occupy- ing chairs in the ea without the semi-circle of seats. His first sen- tence, in which he said he spoke by command of silent lips—a delicate and touching reference to the loss of his wife on his memorable trip to Cuba— commanded instant attention, A hush fell over the great audience which hung with almost breathless attention and interest upon every word. Some surprise has been expressed that Senator Thurston should appear in public prominently so soon after the demise of Mrs. Thurston, but the first sentence of his speech furnishes the key to his action. It is true that Mr. 'Thurston’s speech, viewed from one standpoint, $s an unusual proceed- ing, but it justified by the con- ditions attending it. Mrs. Thurston's Dying Request to her husband was that he should lose no time on account of her death to do his utmost to save and free Cuba and its people. In accordance with this request, therefore, Senator Thurston sacrificed his personal feel- ing and delivered his speech—a speech that was Lis tribute to the memory of his wif Without knowing the mo- tive which animated Mr. Thurston and inspired him to his best efforts his audito instinetively realized and sympathized with his evident emotion, he speech was very generally re- garded as a masterly effort, and even these who could not agree with his conclusions, conceded the power of his oration. As he neared the end of the speech his voice, which had been clear and ringing, noticeably broke. He was almost overcome by emotion, but ral- lied with an effort and closed in a manner that thrilled his auditors. Staid and dignified senators turned y and wept, and in the galleries welled to hundreds of eyes. It a remarkable scene and the still- ness until the last word had been pro- nounced Vv s of death itself. As Mr. Thurston sank into his seat and buried his face in his hands the galleries were swept by such a tumult of applause has not in a long time been heard in the senate chamber. s ua brother might have done, Mr. 1, Mr. Thurston’s colleague from walked to him, and, plac- ing his arm over his shoulder, quietly led him from the chamber. The act s one of the spontaneoas and touch- ing amenities amid the turbulence and discord of political life. In the House. The naval appropriation bill was taken up in the house and after con- siderable difficulty an arrangement Ww made to close genera! debate at 1 o'clock to-da There was great pressure for time but the leaders de- si to limit as far as possible ihe op- portunity for inflammatory utter- ances. The debate was not on sensa- tional lines, but every radical expres- sion was cheered to the echo by the crowded galleries. The speeches by Mescrs. Dayton of Virginia and Ar- nold of Pennsylvania, both of whom took advanced positions in favor of ssive action to step the war in roused intense enthusiasm. Boutelle and Meyers confined remarks closely to the bill and xtraordinary emergency which ated tht large increases it car- Washington rch 26.—The stirring scenes © ty-first congress when members of the minority were charg- ing down the aisles protesting against the rulings of Speaker Reed were re- eniled in the turbulent protests made by the minority against a ruling of the chair during the consideration of the naval appropriation bill. The ruling in effect compelled members to confine their remarks under the five-minute rule to the subject before the house, and was made against Mr. Hartman of Montana, who attempted to make a political speech. The ruling was de- nounced as a usurpation and appeal after appeal was taken. When all else failed every expedient was re- sorted to to block progress with the pill. As a result but four pages were disposed of. Before the bill was iaken up for amendment Mr. Foss of Illinois, a member of the naval com- mittee, made a general speech in ad- yocacy of the policy of building up a strong and powerful navy.

Special. — State Treasurer Phillips is elated over the financial condition of South Dakota, as he has good reason to be. When he took possession of his office he found not only the treasury depleted of $376,- 000 by the defalcation of the retiring treasurer, W. W. Taylor, but he also found a floating indebtedness of $225,- 000 and $90,060 of the school fund gone with the late treasurer. Mr. Phillips secured an extension of time on the floating debt and borrowed $325,000, cancelled the floating debt of 225,000 and last year paid off $126,000 of the bonded indebtedness. At the close of the present year Mr. Phillips says he will pay off another $100,000 of the bonded debt. The state’s debt now amounts to only $1,000,000, which, at the rate of liquidation during the past three years, will be wiped out in tive years. THIS WOMAN N SHOOT.
