Says the North Is Not Slow| Under Present Conditions, | in Dealing Out Lynch Law | WASHINGTON, March 18.—In the | House to-day during the discussion of the postoffice appropriation bill, Spight of Mississsippl discussed the negro question and declared unjust the at- tacks on the people of the South, who had been charged with brutality and barberism toward the colored race. Compering the lynchings and burnings at the staks which had occurred in the South with those in the North, he said that the people of the South in meting out punishmert to the negro who had committed a flendish crime never fol- lowed it up with violence toward de- | fenseless children and women as had | been done in the North. He declared that President Roosevelt by inviting Booker Washington to dine at the White House had done more to influ- ence the passions of the negro and to give him a p erted idea of his im- portance and his near approach to so- cial equality than anything that had been done for past years. Spight continued: “So far as I am concerned I am opposed to mob vio- lence as a general proposition. I do not think that lynchings for any other crime than the nameless one against womanhood ought ever to occur. In all others the courts of the country are ample and generally, with us, swift to punish. “But in the ope class of crimes so| brutal and destructive of all that is dear to an enlightened people, no one with a spaTk of manhood in him can doubt that instant death to the perpe- trator should follow upom the ascer- tainment of the guilty facts. The poor suffering woman who has been the vie- tim of the devilish lust of a brute, white or black. should not be compelled to appear in court and repeat before a jury the horrible details of her wrong.” Spight recited that the burning at the stake of “such brutes” was not con- fined to the South but had occurred in the North as well Subsidies to railroads for special mail facilities came in for much eriticism by Robinson of Indiana and Gaines of Tennessee, latter characterizing ¥ =d steal.”” Rural mail friends on the carriers found man floor who advocated increased pay for them and the privileges of acting as agents for newspapers and trades- people. In a speech characterized by intense vigor, Flood of Virginia asserted that the credit for the establishment of the rural free delivery service beionged te the Democrats. It had, ke said. been claimed by Perry S. Heath, former First Assistant Postmaster General. “I am not,” he said, “astonished that a geantieman who was willing to rodb and plunder his Government and per- mit other people to rob and plunder the Government he had sworn to protect should rob a pelitical opponent of the credit to which he was entitled A REVELATIONS EXPECTED. Hints That Special Postal Committee Will Spring Surprise. WASHINGTON, March - 16.—The special committee of the House on the postoffice report has. it is understood, received the report known as “exhibit A This document has never been made public and the feeling created among members by the thorough man- ner in which the special committee is dealing with the task assigned it is growing somewhat intense. Revela- tions of new “deals” are hinted at in the cloakrooms. In the meantime the special committee is carrying on its work behind closed doors. An all-day session was held to-da When the committee adjourned Chairman McCall announced that he had addressed a letter to each mem- ber of the House mentioned in the re; port requesting him if he so desired to make a statement to the committee, | either orally or in writing, touching the correctness of the statement inm | the report. The committee will meet again to-| morrow, and, as indicating that the| preliminary work is nearly comple! McCall said that it was hoped to con- | duct the work in open session in two | {or three days. The day, he said, had | | béen devoted to going over the report | g0 that the committee might be thor- oughly familiar with every phase of it. ! This work, he said, will greatly ex-| pedite the final €onclusion. | R R Cousider Bills Relating to Canal. | WASHINGTON, March 16.—The Senate Committee on Interoceanic | Canals to-day considered the three] bills relating to the government of | | the Panama canal zone. General Davis, a member of the Canal Com- | mission, was heard as to the estimate8 | cost of carrying on the government and in support ef the propesition to[ leave the government of the zome to| the members of the commission.

WASHINGTON, March 15.—Chan Mun Shang, a prominent Chinese mer- | chant of San Francisco, called on the President to-day. He is head of the Chinese reform movement in this| country. He says that 25,000,000 Chi- nese already are enrolled in the move- | ment and that the list is rapidly in-| reasing. Cerman Embassador Is Improving. WASHINGTON. March 16.—Baron {von Sternburg. the German Embas- sador, who has been suffering from a e I Cannot Be Obtained WASHINGTON, Mearch 18, — Secre- | tary Taft continued his explanation to | the House Committee on Insular Af- fairs to-day as to conditions in the Philippines, particularly with refer- ence to the necessity of railroad build- ing. Taking up first the question of internal improvements in the islands, Secretary Taft read a cablegram from Governor Wright suggesting a $10,000,- 000 bond issue for Improvements. In this cablegram Governor Wright sald that In the last six months the customs receipts had fallen off 25 per cent. Secretary Taft declared his bellef that the $10,000,900 bond issue could be sold at per at 4 per cent interest. He toid of the necessity of municipal improvements contemplated. There are %00 towns which need water supplies and sanitation. The contemplated bond issue would make it possible to supply between three and four hundred of these towns and greatly improve their health conditions. It was de- sirable, he sald, to have the preliminary approval of the President and Secre- tary of War to the bond issue, in order that the bonds might be more readily marketed. Secretary Taft turned his attention next to the section of the bill providing that the collections under the immi- gration laws should be turned into the Philippine treasury. Delegate de Getau of Porto Rico questioned the Secretary as to the effectiveness of the enforce- ment of the Chinese laws in the islands. The census showed only 30,000 Chinese in Manila, whereas it was supposed there were double that number. The inducements for a Chinese to evade the law were great, but the Secretary be- lieved that the law was as rigorously enforced as in the United States. Secretary Taft said the sala Judges of the Supreme Court in the islands should be raised to $10,000. It was difficult, he said, to retain men on the bench there afithe salary paid. He will continue his testimony to- morrow. of —— e SOCIETIES WILL UNITE ON ST. PATRICK'S DAY n Jose Will Celebrate on a Grander Scale Than Ever.

Mullen, who is charged with embezzling over 3000 from the office of County Tax Collector January, may plead guilty when his trial commences to-morrow, Jackson Hatch, one of his attorneys, has withdrawn. This morning F. L.| Thomas appeared before Judge Tuttle and asked for a continuance of the trial. This was denied. In arguing Attorney Thomas intimated that no| defense would be made, and it is lieved that Mullen will plead guilty | and throw himself on the mercy of the | court. Mullen has been awaiting trial | for nearly a year. The specific offense | against Mullen is that he embezzled | $306 86 paid to him for State and county taxes by Jacob Luther.
