Huss of Echoes. There wae a buzz of excited comment on the floor of the house when the session be- gan today and members gathered in groups to discuss the stirring incidents of the vote on Cuban reciprocity last night. The sub- ject was not referred to in the opening pro- ceedings, however, except In Chairman Payne’'s correcting the record of some of the excited parllamentary “sparring, and then the house turned to routine buein A resolytion was agreed to for the pay- ment of the expenses incident to the Me- Kinley memorial exercises. A bill provid- ing for two additional assoclate justices in Oklahoma excited lively Q@iscussion on the | proviso that the appolnte¢s .ehall hive been residents of the territory for one year. The bill was paesed; for a monument marking the site of the For{ Phi] Kearney massacre; establishing an additional land office in Montana; regulating the introduction of eggs of game birds for propagation. Mr. Lacey stated that the purpose of the Jast Bill was to authorize the secretary of agriculture to fix regulations by which there would be no propagation of undesirable birds, such as English sparrows, but that the propagation would be confined to desir- able game birds. Other Bills Passed. Other bills passed were: Reserving from the public lande In Oregon a public park for the benefit of the people of the United States and the protection and preservation of the game, flsh and timber and all other natural objects. The senate amendments to an additional urgency deficiency: bill were agreed to ana the bill now goes to the president for his approval. Saturday, May 10, wae set aside to pay tribute to the memory of the late Repre- sentative Polk of Pennsylvania. The house then took up the fortifications appropriation bill Mr. Hemenway, in charge of the bill, ex- plained that it carried an appropriation of $6,562,456, being $801,5656 more than the cur- rent law. Mr. Grosvenor took occasion to talk on the action of the house yesterday on the Cuban reciprocity bill. He sald that the differential on refined sugar had been placed in the Dingley bill against the pro- test of the Sugar trust and at the request of the beet sugar producers. He said the beet sugar men had overreached them- selves. In order to accomplish the humilia- tion of certaln members of the house they had not only struck off the differential on sugar, but also the countervailing duty on bounty-produced sugar. Suyw Senate Cannot Reverse Referring to what might occur in the senate, he sald the action of the vote of the ‘democrats and' the controlling factor in the ‘house (the beet sugar republicans) had made it impossible for the senate to remové *the: differential amendment. = Any senator who' voted td strike out the Morris amendment wotld be dccused of favoring the Sugar trust. Replylng to General Grosvenor, Mr. ‘Weeks of Michigan, one of those promi- nent in opposing the ways and means coms mittee, commented satirically on Mr. Gros venor's recent references to the young and inexperfenced niembers. Telegrams of con-~ gratulation had heen.pouring in today; Mr. Weeks sald, from the governor of Michigan and from those high in the councils of the republisan party on the success of the movement against the reciprocity bill. With this home support behind them, he and bis assistants did net propose to have the “riot act” read to them by the gentles man from Ohlo or any ather leader. *Our motive was to kill that bill—that is the plain English of it” exclaimed Mr. Weeks, “and we belleve that it is killed, and that if it ever comes back from the senate its friends will not be able to recog- nize it."” Mr. Cannon put the house In good humor and brought the discussion back to the fortification bill. An amendment by Mr. Cushman of W: ington w reed to for the purcha the exclusive right to use the high ex- plosive thorite, and making available $50,000 of a former appropriation for this pur- pose. The bill then was passed. The conference report on the leglslative appropriatiop, bill was agreed to.
