OMARA INDIAN SUPPLY DEPOT No Menotary Provision is Made for Its Oon- tinnanos, —— BANTEE AGENCY MAY BE ABOLISHED Pupetvising Architeet Favors Million Dolisrs for Des, Mol Pablie Bullding ~ Reservations to o Be Investigated. (From a Staft Correspondent.) rWMHlNG‘I‘ON Feb. 3.—(Special Tele- gram.)<The Indian supply depot at Omaha will probably succumb to the inevitabie about June 30, unless something is done to continue the appropriation for 1903. The subcommittee on . Indian affajre baving charge of the Indian appropriation bill has completed its work and today presented a bill to the full committes, which will go over the measure at its next meeting. The bill does not make any appropriation for the continuance of the Indian supply depot Omaba. Secretary Hitcheock was galnst Inserting the jtem in the appro- priation bill two years agy but ex-Senator then chairman of the Indian maintained it and continued to regard to the measure, and the fact that Nebraska no longer has representation on the Indian committee may largely ac- sount for the report of sub-committee to discontinue the office. The bill as prepared for report to the house committes on Indian affairs discon- tinues the Indian Agency on the Sac and Fox reservation in Iowa, Santee in Neb- raska, and Yankton {n Soutb Dakota. Com- missioner Jones has recommended the dis- sontinuance of two of these agencles peatedly, but they are always restored on the floor of ome or the other of the two houses, and it is expected Senator Allison will look after the Sac and Fox agency in fowa while Senator Gamble will do like- wise for Yankton. Fate of Santee Agency Uncertain. Senator Millard, however, in whose sec- lon the Santee agency is sltuated, has not determined whether he will attempt to e that agency restored. One item of the bill from which muoh Is expected appropriates $5,000 for the purpo: of ascertalning the condition of Indians upon the reservations, their degree of civ- ilization, the advisability of reducing the size of reservations, propriety of commut- Ing thelr aonaities, the areas needful for thelr uee, Whethér lands are better fitted tor forestry than agriculture and to make a 1l report upon the area of mineral lands Includedt in fhe réwervations. The supports granted by the bill for the Indian schools do ngt vary greatly from the 1ast. bill, and in ‘the main are below the figures of the Fifty-aixth congress. For (enoa, Neb., $66,800 is approprated, Including nann for a new boiler house and boilers. Riggs institute, South Dakota, gets $77,925, including a_new barn, addition to workshop, dairy buildisg and equipments.’ Chambertain, D., 1s given by the sub- committes $40,050, which includes the cost of ua juperintendent's pumplag plant. Rapid Oy, 5. D., has to by satisfled with $35,250, including the cost of lsundry, extension of sewer and employes' uarters. 1'- Settle for Nebraska Lands. The subcommit| report on the In- dian- appropriation: ‘also directs the sec- retary of the lnterior‘to pay to the Otoe tribe of Indians in Oklahoma $50.000 of th money collected for them in the settlement of thelr claim for land sold for them !n Nebraska. This grows out of the settle- ment of an old controversy over the sale of Otoe and Missourl lands in Gage ocounty, which stalked through congress many years before a setflemfent was reached. In the urgent deficiency bill reported to ths senate today, John Slaker of Hastings, Neb., as ¢lerk to Bemator O. H. Dietrich, ! lowed pay from April 6 to December J. B, Haynes, as clerk to Senator Mil- lard, 1s allowed pay from April 11 to De- cember 1, and Edwin R. Winans, clerk to Senator A. B. Kittredge of South Dakota, from July 20 to December 1.

He spoke without manuscript, with earnestness, force and eloquenc At the cluglon of his addre bad been ened to by many of his former colleagues in the house of representatives, Mr. Beveridge of Indiana, challenged some of his statements. The debats which en- sued was lively for a few minutes, takl on a political phase which proved interest- ing to the auditors who crowded the floor as well as the galleries. Beveridge and Tillman Tilt. Mr. Beveridge and Mr. Tillman of South Carolina, became involved in & heated oolloquy in which the exchanges were as hot as both senators well could make them. Prior to the taking mp of the Philippine bill, the measure viding for an {increase In of United -States judges was under discussion for an hour. In the cov: e of the debate, the case of Judge Arth.r H. Noyes of the district court of Alaska was drawn upon to show why some judges should not be given the increases Soon after the senate convened today Mr. Hale of Maine reported the urgent de- ficlency bill and gave notice that he would call it up for consideration tomorrow. At the conclusion Mr. Culberson quired whether from the secret. tion passed ten days ago calling for certain correspondence relating to the Philippines tariff. When informed that no reply had been received, he declared that in view of the fact the question was under disc slon in the senate the delay was seemly." No Increased Pay for Members. n- Consideration of the bill to increasq the salaries of judges of the United States courts then was resumed. The pending amendment was that of Mr. Stewart's in- creasing the salaries of semators and members of the house of representatives to $7,600 annually, beginning on March 4, 1903. After briet discussion the amend- ment was rejected, 15 to 44.

Mr. Clark of Wyoming moved to amend by extending the proposed increese in sal- ary to the district judge of Hawail. Mr. Tillman inquired of Mr. Foraker whether Porto Rico was in the United States or not. “I will say to the senator,” replied Mr. Foraker, “that Porto Rico belongs to the United States."” ““The matter of ‘belonglag to' and being ‘in’ is entirely different,”” suggested Mr. Tillman. Status of Porto Rica. Mr. Foraker throught this was not the proper time to discuss the status of Porto Rico. “Oh, there Is plenty of time,” sald Mr. Tillman. “We've got the whole session be- fore us. We might as well disc the question now as at any other time. Mr. Foraker eald he would content him- self now with saying eimply that Porto Rico belongs to the United States. “The relation of the island to the United States,' sald he, “has been established by congress, and been approved by the United Sta supreme court Mr. Teller urged if the salaries of the judges in Porto Rico and Hawall were to be increased, those of the judges i3 the territories also should be Increased. ° Considerable oppusition was eloped to the amendment and Mr. Forsker withdrew it rather than jeopardize bill. Mr. Clark of Wyoming insisted upon his amend- ment ‘and reoffered it at one The amendment was lald on th without division. ‘Case of Judge Noyes. Mr. Bates of Tenn ment against the bill. Taking advantage of the latitude of debate allowed by the sen- Mr. Tillman directed attention le in the Washington Post pub- ished today, relative to the cuse of Judge Arthur H. Noyes of the district courc of Alaska, who wi the circuit court at San.Francisco, and of associates of Judge Noyes who were i volved with him. Mr. Tillman read article, which indicated that Judge Noyes and his assoclates are drawing large sal aries from the United States, while ¢ case against them Is pending In the courts. One of the men, according to the artiel who is serving his sentence, continues draw salary. Mr, Tillman made running co: the statements in the articl bis sarcasm, ridicule and Ilnvective against Jutige Noyes, finally inquiring: “By the way, whose business is it to remove th wan?” Impeachment May Be Necessary. Mr. Foraker of Ohlo belleved if might require impeachment proceedings to re- wove Judge No: but Mr. Teller contended that the president had ample power to re- table e made an argu- was ‘Do question about that. the actions of Judge Noyes had been a “erylog sbame,” and asseried that a re- ciial of his outrages would startle the American people.” At 3 o'¢luck the Philippine tariff bill was lald before the senste and Mr. cnr-ul tion to th pending measure. tended that congress was not prepared to deal understandingly with the Phillppine situstion in ady of its phases, because it was pot famillar with the facts. The bill, he sald, bad been framed the Philippine commission, an autocratic , 10,000 miles away, and not & change bad been made in it by congress. “This blll,” sald Mr. Carmack, “is tramed FHABHKUAKY 4, on the theory that the Philippine islandd are A deadly ménace to our 6wn trade and that the less we trade with those islands and the less we have to do with them the better it will bé for us.

These facts,” he said, “constitute a binding obligation upon u: to give them thelr independence. added: “Haul down the American flag wherever It waves as an emblem of force and of despotism. He charged that the United States had been holding a delusive hope to the Filipinos and t were Kkilling those people, for the Ivetion of their souls and building up the church of God out of human bones. Deprecates Poliey of Conguest. Mr. Carmack maititained that by follow- ing out the policy of conquest tormulated by the majority in power the United State: was pressing itself into all the bickerings and quarrels of the world. Under such a policy no peace was in view for this gove ernment. The position of the government would simply be one of armed neutrality. At the conclusion of Mr. Carmack's speech, Mr. Beveridge, a republican member of the Philippine commission, sharply chal- lenged a statement by the Tennessee sena- tor that the Philippine tarifft had not been well or barefully considered. As a matter fixed after consulting every fnterest in the Philippines. “Did the Philipplhe commiséion m: investigation of “ the ~ Philippine lclll " inguired Mr. Carmack. ““No,” replied Mr. Beveridge, ‘‘bit, the l’hlllpplu commissidn has been cons| ing that scale for two years. Mr. Beveridge declared that if the demo- cratic party had given to its last tariff bill the same care which' had been given the Philippine tarift s this country’ prosperity would Mot Have withéred as it had under the tariff it had enacted. Why Democrats Are Farsak: Further alohg Mr. Beveridge declared that the reason why ex-Prealdent Cleveland, ex- President Harridon and ' ex-Senator ,Ed- munds, all of whom bad not been in sym- pathy with the Philippine policy of the administration, declined to follow. the demo- cratic party, was because that party would not accept the decislons of the supreme court .and the verdict of the American people. as final) He asserted that the rea- sons why ti ‘thoughtful people of the country” bad net followed the democratic party in its opposition to the proper con- trolling of the Phillippines and in other matters of national policy was that they feared that party would sow “the dragon's teeth, from which would spring a harvest of anarchy.” Another reason, he sald, was that party was sounding a note of retreat, and ‘“never in thé history of the country had the American people retreated from any proposition fairly presented to them, and r would.” tarift holy hotror at| ot follow you,” he declared, haking his floger at the democratic -side, cAuse you are calling our soldiers mur- derers and ‘charity boys' and ‘doers of dirty work."

After more sharp -personal colloquy, the indlana and South Caroliza senators ridi- culed each other, Mr. Beveridge proceeded to relate an incident of the burning of a village, and sald upon - investigation it proved that it was the act of the insurg- ents, his purpose belng to disprove, some reports against the American soldiers.

Mr. Allison of Iowa, a member of the Philippine commission, sald that so far as he was concerned he had given the Philip- pine tariff the best consideration of which he was capable. He had gone over the schedules thoroughly and was shtisfled that the scale was as good, perhaps as could be devised. He belleved eyery mem* ber of the committee had done his duty in that regard. After some incidental discussion by Mr. Foraker of Ohlo, Mr. Teller of Colorado and Mr. Carmack, the senate at 4:45 on motion of Mr. Lodge, went into execu- tive session and a few minutes later ad- journed.
