WASHINGTON, March 3.—At 11 o'clock today the senate entered tpon the last leg- islative day of, the Fifty-seventh congress. There will be'no adfournment until 12 elock torderrow, Whén. congress expires by Hmitatiop. r A resolutiop was adopted mnnulnl un- til the next regulnr session the standing and select committees. The confetence repbrt on the sundry civil bill was agréed to. Mr. Hogr called wp the conference report on the bill"fe protect the ‘prestdent. Mr. Bacon (Ga.) declared the conference feport is a Hill which, ‘with the exception of one single sentence, had not been read dn the sgnate, The bill, he said, is far- veaching in its character and absolutely subservient of the fundssmental principles upon which the government is founded. Replying, Mc. Hoar insisted that the con- ference report was the ‘senate bill in its entirety, with the exception of the mat- ter pertainfhg to aharchists. Aldrich BIIl Dies, At 1 the unfinished business—the Ald- pich bill—was lald before the senate. Mr. MHoar immediately made the point that the unfinished business did not take precedence over a conferehce report. Replying to m question by Mr. Teller, Mr. Aldrich said: “After the notice served last night, I am satigfled this bill cannot Pase this session.” Mr. Quay rose and said that in all hu- mility of spirit he offered a proposition. He asked unanimous comsent that at 2 o'clock a vote be taken on five preposi- tions before the.senate, namely the omni- bus statehood bill, the Aldrich bill, the conference report on the bill to protect the president, the Phillipines tarift bill and the pure fdod bill. Mr, Foraker sald he took advantage of the opportunity to say that it would be a little short of a public calamity if the tho seriate will in the carly future adopt some kind of closure. During the discussion the two new senators from Delaware, J. Frank Allee and T, Helslet Ball, were sworn amid loud ap- plause from the oceupants of the galleries, many of whom, including J. Bdward Ad- dicks, came from. Delaware especially for the occasien, Mr. Ball was escorted to ! panted by Mr. Hanna. The usual oath was administered and the two ecnators were conductedsto their spats. Mr. Lodge expressed his anxiety to have the Philippines tariff bill disposed of at this sésslon, but Mr. Teller said' there was no more possibility of passing it than of pass- ing the Aldrich bill. “If a closure rule existed,” he sald, “there would have been three new states. You have belled our platform,” he thundered, facing the republican side, “‘and belled your professions.” He declared the republicans were afrald ot the democratic party in the west. A man was a fool who had sat in the senate and did not know it, and a coward who, knowing it, was not willing te declare it ‘He toncluded by pleading for action regard- ing the trusts. Mr. Lodge then moved to take np the Philippine tarift bill, which was agreed to, displacing the Aldrich financial bill. Mr. Patterson opposed the bill, saying heé bbjected to being used either by a trust or by any combination of speculators under the plea of M nity. Mr. Bacon sald even if he shared the apprehensions with regard to the threat- ‘ened competition of sugar and tobacco he would say now Is the time when the hand of relief to a desolate people showld be ex- tended. Mr. Foraker would rejoice if the Philip- ploes could produce 5,000,000 tons of sugar. 1t would be a sad miscarflage of the gov- ernment’s duty toward those islands if it #0 legislated as to make it impossible for & country of such capacity to bave no prosperity. AL 6 & recess was taken until 8. The nav&l bill and general deficlency ap- propriation bilis were passed and at 2:10 the senate took a recess till 10. A_'IQS[NG SCENE IN HOUSE S—— Clerk Who Was a Former Auctioneer . Prevekes Members Spee- tators to Laughter. WAEHINGTON, March 3.—Today was al- most a fepetitfon of yesterday in the house. Siowly but surely, through the operation of ceastless roll calls, the conference re- ports to complete the necessary legisl tign were passed. and 7 récessed .for .three hours, oanly two re- m oo, appropriation bills were still un- @isposell of, the general deficiency and the naval, The democratic opposition did not abate and will be continued until congress ex- pires at noon tomorrow.

A personal altercation seemed imminent, but was averted by the inter- vention of friende The actual business done during the elght hours of the day session consisted of the adoption of the conference reports on the imigration, public bulldings and sundry civil ®ills, the referemce of the presi- dent's veto message of a Virginia claims bill to the committee on war claims, the adoption of a resolution to correct cler- ieal errors in the tmmigration bill and the passage of a senate bill to authorize the Treasury department to coln souvenir coins for the Thomas Jefferson Memorial asso- clation. s soon as Speaker Hendsrson called the house to order Mr. Richardson, the ii- nority leader, attempted to make the point of no quorum, but the speaker recognized Mr. Payne to demand the aves and nays on the pending question coming over from last night—the adoption of ths conference report on the immigration BiIl, Mr. Richardson insisted tifat his point was good, but the speaker overruled him and when the democratic leadar appealed from the dectsion he declined 6 eutertain the appeal on the ground that it was dil- atory. The report was adopted—197 to §7. The presentation of the confererice report on a private pension blll was made ths occasion for some good natured political chaffing. Mr. Miers (Ind.) said if the fe- publican party was the good friend of the old soldiers it professed to be, the hou managers would bring in a rule to adopt conference reports ot the remaining pen- sion bills “en block.” The report was adopted, 211 to 6. Mr. Cannon presented the conferemce report om the sundry civil bill. He pleaded with the minosity to dispense with the reading of the report in extenso, but Mr. Richardson was obdurate and refused to consent. A very amusing scene followed. The volces of the reading clerks who officiated yesterday naving been worn out by the ceaseless calling of the roll, a member of the capitol police force was drafted today. He had at one time been a reading clerk of the Maryland house of delegates and later an auctioneer. He had a fog horn volce and in reading figures his tones grad- ually ascended like an auctioneer in the exercise of his profession knocking down goods to the highest bidder. The members of the house, as well as the spectators in the galleries, were convulsed with uncontroilable laughter, which sud- denly changed to handclapping. The new clerk, believing that some acknowledgment of this demand was due, suspended the reading to bow right and left. This grotesque proceeding only increased the merriment and brought down a storm of applause. The confusion became 8o great that Mr. Goldfogle (N. Y.) protested against the clerk’s action as unseemly, and the chair was obliged to admonish the members to order. The W r Cure for Chronic Constipa- tion.

At the cabinet meeting today the attor- ney general reported that the canal com- pany had agreed to keep-alive the option held by the government on its property. Both the president and members of the cabinet recelved the information with ex- pressions of satisfaction Secretary Hay announced the exchange of ratification of the Alaskan boundary treaty, which was concluded today. Rear Admiral A. 8. Crowninshield, com- manding the European station, has applied for retirement in accordance with the pro- visions of the personnmel law.

General Crozier, chief of ordoence; has made preliminary arrangements for arming the entire organized militia of the United States with the Krag-Jorgensen musket of the regular pattern. He already has col- lected about 65,000 rifies at the arsenals and more will be shipped from the armory at Springfield, Mass. These arms will re- place the Springfield muskets, which are to be rgturned to the government. According to the latest returns recelved by Adjutant General Corbln, the organized bs, Colds, hma, strength of the militia is 115,714, but the impression prevalls at the War depart- ment that 60,000 Krag-Jorgensens will be sufficient to meet all demands for several months to come.

As usu the president will be in the president’s room on the senate side. There he will sign such bills as may be passed In the last few hours of the session. Insular Trade Boeming. The bureau of insular affairs of the War department has secured the com- plete official figures of Philippine commerce for November, 1302, the importations for which month, fuclu- sive of gold and silver and government supplies, were valued at approximately $3,000,000, or slightly in excess of the average trade during eleven months of the calendar year of 1902. | More than half of this amount is cred- | ited to the purchase of food articles and is | due in a great measure ta crop failures. The exports show a trade of nearly $3,500,- 000, being the largest monthly export | shown since American occupation, with the exception of that of September last. Hemp shipments approximated - three- fourths of this amount, mearly $2,000,000 worth being sent to the United States. During eleven months ending November 30, 1902, the total imports were valued at $30,573,872, on which the duty amounted to more than $7,000,000, an increase over ea“h of the two previrus yecrs. A steady gain is shown in the exports for eleven months of 1902, as compared with the figures for each of the two preceding years. The total value of this trade during th last calendar year period amounted t $25,567,269. Exportations to the United States are valued at nearly $10,500,000, as compared with a showing of only $2,500,000 in 1900, These annoying and often distressing afl- ments can be immediately relieved and cured fn a very short time by applying Cham- berlafn’s Pain Balm and observing the fol- lowing directions: First, soak the corn or bunfon in' warm water to soften it, then pare it down as closely as possible without drawing blood, and apply Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice daily, rubbing- vigorously for five minutes at each application. A corn plaster should be worn a few days to protect it from the shoe. As a gemeral Tiniment for sprains, bruises, lameness and rheumatism, Paln Balm is unequalied.

Overla; Pay Will Be ‘Warrants for Monthn. There {s but little money in the city strong box and it will require the utmost economy in all departments to pull through the fiecal year without making an increase in the overlap. There |s no money in the fire fund and the members of the fire department will bave to take warrants until the next levy is available. There is a balance of only $42 in the general fund and this will not go far toward paylng running expenses, so war- rants will have to be issued. In the salary fund there is enoughl to pay the city offi- clals for several months. The publie, light, judgment and water funds are practically exhausted. - In the police fund there is not enough money to puy the feed of a canary bird for a week, while the balance of the funds are about in the same condition. The amount of the 1902 levy was §133,- | 655, receipts from all sources being $147,413. | The total amount drawn up to date is $129,- 1 939. This leaves a balance on hand in the various funds of $17,473. For last year the | overlap has been growing and as the city | grows naturally the expenses increase, so that there is an excuse for the increased expenditure In the fire and police depart- ments and also in the street department. The water rental remains the same as it was a year ago, for the reason that the Omaha Water company will not locate any more hydrants and extend mains until | there is money in sight to pay for the work performed. It is the same with the elec- tric light company, No more lights will be Installed until past bills have been paid nd there is money on hand to satisfy fu- ure clalms.

" Careful Ecohomy Will Be Practiced to | sald yesterday that what the city needs is a larger revenue, as the amount now re- celved from taxes barely pays running ex- penses, to say nothing of paying interest on the outstanding indebtedness or inter- est on the overlap which is still carried on the books. What s wanted is a bond lssue to clean up the overlap and to make prep- arations for the bullding of sewers and the pavement . of certaln streets which are badly in need of improvements. Repairs to some of the paved streets are needed, but as there {s no way to secure this money at the present time, the streets 'fll have to go without repairs. The Twenty-fourth stret paving will have to be gone over this summer, also the L and N street paving and, portions of Q street. 8till, there is no fund for this work, as all of the street repair money is needed in keeping the graded street in passable condition. An effort is to be made, however, to induce the couneil to pass or- dinances this spring for the paving of quite & pumber of downtown streets. With the paving of streets permanent sidewalks follow and consequently fewer damage suits. An attorney sald last night that the amount of money pald out by the city for damage claims would put perma- nent sidewalks on half the streets in South Omaha. 01d Settler Leaves.

Want Thirteenth Street Fixed. There 1s a movement on foot among the property owners in the soutbeastern por- tion of the city to endeavor to induce the authorities to make some needed repairs to Thirteenth street. 1t is asserted that this roadway from the city limits on the porth to the southern line is in bad shape. Last year the county helped out on this work some and a request will be made through Commissioner O'Keefle to have the county assist in this work.that is needed mow. Considerable bullding is going on in the eastern part of the city and & good road is demanded by those who own property in this section. President Miller of the Bogrd of Edu- cation appointed a committee composed of Morrill, Bock and Kubat to confer with the city council in regard to the comstruc- tion of stdewalks in the vicinity of Cor: gan school. It has been reported to board that the puplls attending this school are compelled to walk not less than three blocks through mud whew the weather is soft. It is desired by the board that steps be takes by the councll teo cause walks to be laid on streets adjacent to the Corrigan school. This matter will be taken up with the comittee on streets and alleys’ some time during the week. As walks are being ordered lald all over the ecity it seems probable that the ceuncil will pay some attention to the requast of the committee trom the Board of Education. Last month the feeder shipments num- bered 16,167 head. This is an increase over January of the present year and an increase over February, 1902. Of the total feeder shipments nearly 7,000 head went to Nebraska teedlots, while the balance were sent to feeding stations tributary to this market. South Omaha is now con- sidered the important feeding market on the river and the records show that the business here is growing rap'dly. Magie City Gossip. A Ion hll been born to Mr. and Mrs T.
