In every kind of business, indus- trial as well as spec , they act on th theory money In their bt have in view the supply of | money, but many of them in their argu- ments foliow the teachings of the Cleve- lands and the Harrisons and maintain that all they want is intrinsic values in | | the money in circulation, no | whether the volume is large or small. | In conclusion Stewart sald: “The pas- sage of this bill, whatever may have been the intention of its authors, will bring this question squarely before the Ameri- can people. If this biil should become a law there will be no dodging the issue, It | must be met, and that issue will be be- tween a government by a colossal and {m- | perial concentration of capital wielding the soverelgn power of the United Btates to create, contract and expand the yolume of money and an honest measure of value | consisting of the legal tender money of the United States. Aldrich, in charge of the financlal bill, asked to’ have some arrangement made ne!a.rdlng that measure. ones of Arkansas replied that no Dem- | ocrat was ready to speak on the bill, but | he assured Aldrich there was no disposi- | tion to delay it unduly. | Aldrich sald the bill had been before the Senate for three weeks, an ample time in which to prepare for its discussion. There- fore he had a right to insist that the bill be disposed of as soon as possible. Teller asked if there were to be no | lgeerhol in support of the measure. To this Aldrich said he was unable to reply. Republicans, he thought, were prepmg to vote upon 1it: Teller regarded it as remarkable that a measure of such importance should go to | & vote without discussion from all sides. | At the request of Aldrich the financial | measure was postponed until 2 o'clock Monday next. | oThe Senate then agreed to adjourn until | Monday. NO SUBSIDY FOR THE MANILA RAILWAY | | WASHINGTON, Jan. 1L—Acting Secre- | tary Meikiejohn of the War Department has denled the application of the Manila | Rallway Compapy, Ltd., for payment by | the ©nited Btates of interest on the capl- | tal invested in the rallway .owned and operated by said company pursuant of a guarantee of sald interest hy the Spanish Government. The company, which is a corporation organized under the laws of |'Great ' Britain, _obtained . & fohcenlon | from the Spanish Government for a rafl- | road from Manila to Dagupan, fn the isl- and of Luzon, ebout 130 miles. By the | terms of the concession, the Spanish Government guaranteed a return of 8 per cent per annum upon the capital invested in the railrcad. The clalmants represent that the amount originally invested was $4.964.400, but that the amount was sub- | | | | [ | sequently increased, with the concurrence of the Spanish authorities, to $5,535,700 89. The Spanish Government, up to the time of the Spanish-American war, fulfilled its obligations under this contract by paying quarterly installments of the subvention as they accrued, the amount varying with the earnings of the raflroad. The rail- road company contends that the United States by assuming soverelgnty over the ’hilippines, in accordance with the terms [ e et e o e e S | E | political office, SAPT. \/.

OMAHA, Jan. 11.—Four members of the Board of Education were arrested to-day on warrants charging them with accept- ing a bribe. They are A. M. Cowle, G. G. Irey, George H. Hess and Frank A. Sears. The case grows out of the letting of a contract for Venetian blinds for several large new school buildings erected last year. The evidence on which the charge was made was furnished by Charles Chiiquy, the representative of the Bostwick & ess Co; ny of Ohlo. He made afi- davit to paying all of the accused except Cowie certain sums their ' Influence apd turned over to the authorities the checks with which the sums were paid, showing the indorsement of the accused, which were made when the checks were Cowle, he alleges, demanded v, but wanted more than the witness vas willlng to pay. A committee of the board is also investigating charges of bribery connected with other contracts, but no arrests have been made in con- nection with them. e SOy TRIAL OF SOLDIERS FOR SHOOTING A DESERTER Federal Court to Determine Whether the Killing of Private Morgan Was Justifiable. OMAHA, Jan, 11.—The habeas corpus case of Corporal Fair and Private Jock- ens of the Tenth Infantry, held in the State courts, for murder for shooting De- eerter Morgan, came up before Judge Munger in the Federal Court to-day. United Btates District Attorney Summers appeared for the prisoners. The facts re- garding the killing are not in controversy. the question being whether it was justifi- able. From the line of questioning adopt- ed and the attitude of the court it is evi- dent that the result of the case. largely hinges upon whether Morgan was n the act of escaping when shot or whether the escape was an accomplished fact and the soldiers were simply trying to apprehend a deserter. If Morgan was an escaping | prisoner the Judge Indicated that under military law the soldiers had a right to shoot, even if not on the military reserva- tion. cated that it was questionable whether they had even the right to arrest him, hut should have appealed to the civil authori- | tles when Morgan was found outside of a military reservation TANNER BITTERLY ATTACKS CULLOM Says That He Has Never Helped the Party and Has Bertayed Those ‘Who Befriended Him. CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—The Tribune. to- morrow will print a long interview with Governor Tanner, in which the Governor makes a bitter personal attack upon Senator Shelby Cullom. Governor Tan- ner declares at the outset that he is not a candidate for the Benate or any other but that he is ltmn{l! opposed to the re-election of Senator Cullom to the Senate. He declares that the Senator has never been known to do anything to the advantage of Republican pc?;u and that he has betrayed all those who have befriended him. Governor Tanner then goes on to sa that Senator Cullom has never kept fait] oltically with anybody when it was to gls nterest to do otherwise. The inter- view is extremely bitter throughout. SPLIT IN THE ROBERTS’ CASE COMMITTEE WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—The Roberts ' | investigating committee held a protracted | executive session to-day in the hope of reaching a conclusion, but so many.legal | questions were discussed that a final re- sult was not reached nor any vote taken | indicating the standing of the committee. Another meeting will be held at 10:30 to- morrow morning. A member of the com- mittee is authority for the statement that the delay is due mainly to a desire to se- cure unanimity and to avoid if possible two reports, The members are practi- cally agreed upon the faots involved.
