The debate on the various amendments and the bill proper consumed much time. Mr. Frye, author of the bill, closed the de- bate. Mr. Frye declared that ten years ago England carried 63 per cent of the trade of the world, while now England carried only 63 per cent of it. Great Bri ain, he sald, was losing the world's carrying trade. In regard to some of the arguments advan Mr. Hanba spoke briefly. He sald it was a loss to the American people to pay $150,000,000 or $200,000,000 for earrylng our American com- merce, for under just laws perhaps G0 per cent of that amount would remain in the hands of Americans. The American merchant marine had gone down and down until it cut a sorry figure among the na- tions of the world. By way of explanation of certain fea- tures of the bill which he sald did not seem to be understood, he stated that the ordl- nary freight ship which is to recelve the wsubsidy, s divested of all the excessive requirements of the postal subsidy -ships. Referring to the proposition to prevent Chinese sallors on ships, he said it ‘would destroy the lines on the Pacific. He was opposed to the proposition bécause our sailors are unable long to stand the ex- cessive heat of the engine and firerooms. No Use for Free Ships. Facing the democratic side, he declared that In the last twenty-five years the demo- crats had suggested no remedy except Mr. Vest, who wanted free ships, a ‘remedy which 1 am very glad to say few Intelll- gent Americana bel! ak In his closing remarks, Mr. Frye sald he would accept the amendment offered by Mr. Allison, limiting the time of the opera. tion of the mossure, because he belleved they were in the interest of the bill. At 3 o'clock, when Mr. Frye had con- cluded, Mr. Vest of Missouri offered hia emendment, providing in brief that the pro- visions of tha wati-trus w apply to the shipping industry with a view to prevent & conspirecy In restrainiug trade. The amendment was rejectdd; 25 to 48— & party vole with the exception of McLaurin of South Carolina, who voted with the re- publicans, Another amendnient offered by Mr. Vest, providing that any vessel purchased in a forelgn country by citizens of the United States shall be admitted to the United Btates coastwise trade, was rejected by the same vote. Yest's Amendment Lost, Mr. Vest-then offered his “fres ships" amendment, providing that American citi- zens may purchase vessels where they cap be purchased most cheaply and have them registered as American ships. It also was rejected, 25 to 48. Mr. Teller of Colorado offered an amend- ‘ment admitting to American registry for- elgn-bullt vessels of not less than 7,000 tons and capable of a speed of twelve knots that now clear from American ports and of ‘which 90 per cent is owned by American .

SEEKS TO CORRECT FALSE IMPRESSION Says Parport of Mensure is Misunderstood and He Corrects Erromeous Impress WASHINGTON, March 17.—The house to- day began cousideration of the river and harbor bill. Mr, Burton of Ohlo made an extended speech n explanation of the meas- ure, in the course of which he presented many interesting facts relative to it. Beve eral other members spoke briefly to the among them Mr. Bellamy of North who protested agalnst the treat- ment his state received. Mr. Foster of Illinols and Mr. Cochran of Missour! discusged the Boer war, criticls- ing the majority severely for failure to al- low congress to express the sympathy ot the American peopls with the struggling republics. At the conclusion of the proceedings to- day Mr. Wachter of Maryland denied a newspaper story to the effect that Speaker Henderson had attempted to influence his course on the question of Cuban reciprocity. Burton Corrects False Idens. Immediately after the approval of the Journal the house went Into committee of the whole and commenced the considera- tion of the river and harbor bill. Mr. Burton, who 1is in charge of the measure, in his opening statement rald he would not discuss the benefits to commerce and trade from the appropriations con- tained in the bill, but would confine him- self at some length to discussing some vopular misapprehensions with refercuce to it. In the first place, he sald, the im- pression existed that the bill carriel some- thing over $60,000,000 for the ensuing fiscal year, whereas it carried but $24,0710,000 of actual appropriations, the remainder of $36,- 000,000 belng simply authorized to be ap- propriated under the contract system. There was also, he sald, a mistaken idea that the pending measure carried larger appropriations than any previous bill. In 1890, he said, the actual appropriations in the bill exceeded $25,000,000. For the current year the appropriations contained in the sundry civil bill, to provide for con- tinuing contracts authorized in river and harbor bills, he said, were $37,000,000, against $41,000,000 for the two previous Mr. Burton eald that the appropria- tor river and harbor work instead of ing with other governmental ex- penditures, as was popularly supposed, were in reality decreasing. Mr. Burton also denounced the popular idea that unworthy projects for the im- provement of bays and creeks absorbed a proportion of the appropriation in the bill. The appropriations were not divided up ac- cording to states and localities. The great projects in which the whole country was In- terested absorbed $50,000,000 out of the $60,- 000,000 carried and authorized by the bill. Defends the Boers. Mr. Foster ol Illinols discussed the Boer war, denouncing the majority for failing to allow congress to consider a resolution expressing the sympathy of the American people with the struggling Boers. H sald that the administration with the Philippine war on its hands dared not open its mouth on the subject of the South Atriean war. England and America, gald, were tarred with the same stick, both were seeking to crush the life out of people’s fighting for independence. While. Mr. Cockrad was criticising the mafority for its attitude toward the Boers an_elderly lady in the gallery with pro- British tendencles frequently shook her fist at the gentleman from Missour] and at one time became 8o violent in her demonstra- tion of disapproval that one of the door- keepers was obliged to admonish her to keep quiet. Mr. Wachter of Maryland, rising to a question of personal privilege, had read a newspaper article charging that the speak- er had attempted to coerce his action on the question of Cuban reciprocity by threatening to defeat an item In the river and harbor bill in which he was represent- ed as interested. Mr. Wachter denounced the story as an unqualified falsehood. “It 1s high time some steps were taken to prevent a repetition of this sort of thing,” sald Mr. Wachter. “Who can tell who will be the next to be ambuscaded by the press? Must we remain powerless while a member of the house is used elub to villify the speaker?"" The house than at § p. m. adjourned. HAY OFFERS TO AID THOMAS Will Grant Passports or Distribute M ¥ to Boers and Expense. ‘WASHINGTON, March 17.—8ecretary Hay will not make further response to the house resolution inquiring into the facts con- nected with the application of Rev. Dr. and Mre. Thomas for paasports to reach the Boer camps. All the facts in the case were set out in the secre! letter written in anticipation of the passage of the resolu- tion of inquiry and read by Mr. Hitt to the committee on foreign affairs. The secretary is communicating with Gov- ernor Yates of Illinols, who initiated the movement to send Mr. and Mrs. Thomas to Bouth Africa, to ascertain exactly what is wanted by the contributors to the fund. It has been reported that the total of this fund is but $6,000, a sum scarcely large enough to cover the expenses of sending these two persons to South Africa and main- talning them there, and if the only pur- pose is to help the Boer women and chil- dren in the camps the State department s willing to further it by sending the money through the United States comsular offices in South Africa and thys reducing the ex- pense of distribution to nothing. But if the contributors to the fund prefer to employ thelr own agents they will be provided with passports, as would any other American citizens, and it is assumed they will be extended the same facilities as the German agents for entering the Boer camps, of course uuder survelllance of British army officers. nounced today that King Edward will not §0 abroad this year.

CZAR'S COURIER IN HURRY Every Effort X~de to Hasten His Jeurmey te St. Peters- burs. vesdels Bave since been NEW YORK, March 17.—Speeding to St. Petersburg with secret dispatches on mat- ters in Manchuria, from the Russian em- bassies in Toklo and Washington, Is Prince Lobanow-Rostowsky, a confldential agent of the czar. He is making his journey as short and as rapld as steam, endurance and an unlimiteq supply of money can make it. The prince has at his entire dis- posal the services of every Russian em- basey, consulate and consular agency from Tokio to Kronstadt, for the purpose of hastening his urgent messages. The courler of the czar left this city on the steamship Aquitalue for Havre. Prince Lobanow-Rostowsky has been a special tache In the Russian embassy in th Japanese capital. He left Nagasaki on the Pacific liner Nippon Maru just before the ratification of the Anglo-Japanese treaty for the maintenance of the integrity of ths Chinese empire was communicated to the powers. The imperial courler left Wash- ington on the midnight train. He was pre- ceded by a telegram from the Russlan em- bassy in America to the Russian consulate in this city, which instructed the consul here to assure the prince’s passage on the Aquitaine at all costs. The passage Was obtained and Prince Lobanow-Rostowsky sailed under the Galllcised name of Loba- now de Rostow. The mystery and the haste of his transit began in Tokio, where he had been sent out at the special request ot the czar to watch the developments of the alllance which was then in progress, and which was designed to check Rus s move to obtain the permanent occupation of Man- churia—a province which, in extent, popu- lation and future possibilities is an empire in itself. The Russian embassy In the Japanese capital knew that the Anglo-Japanese treaty was an accomplished fact for days before the official announcement of its rati- fication. Count Lobanow-Rostowsky is now hastening to St. Petersburg to lay before the czar and Count Lamsdorff, the minister of foreign affairs, important confidential in+ formation concerning the immediate pros- pects of the alllance. ‘The Ruseian foreign office is sald to have had humiliating experiences with cable mes- sages transmitted in codes which failed to keep their secret, and so Prince Lobanow. Rostowsky set out to bear the dispatch himseélf. ’ DRIVES FAMILIES INTO COLD Large Chie; Filats Burn During Night and Inmates Escape in Night Clothing. CHICAGO, March 17.—Twenty-four fami- lles occupylng the St. Catherine flats at Fortieth street and Grand boulevard were driven from the bullding by fire today.

PHILADELPHIA, March 17.—The lo sulting from the fire at Bryn Mawr college last night will' be much greater than was at first supposed. Denbelgh hall, the finest of the college buildings, which was erected at & cost of $190,000, was entirely destroyed and its contents, valued at $35,000 at least, were consumed. Seventy young women oc- cupled chambers in Denbeigh hall and their individual losses have not yet been learned. Miss Thomas, president of the college,”sald today that during the progress of the fire there had been some looting by strange men, but added that the thefts of jewelry, ete., were not extensive. Denbeigh hall was erected in 1801. Ac- cording to location, tuition, board and resi- dence in this building cost the student trom $400 to $575. . President Thomas is fearful that the offe of $250,000 by Jobn D. Rockefeller, con- ditioned on an equal amount being ralsed, will be endangered, as the college will have hard work to recover from the effects of the fire. Suez Canal Opened.
