Senate Is Exfnectéd to Act Favorably on Work at This Port WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—The War| Department and Chairman Tawney of the committee on appropriations played a trick on the House and secured an appropriation of $50,000 for beginning the new military prison on Angel Isl- and. An amendment making a direct appropriation for new work would have been subject to a point of order. Taw- ney evaded this by making his amend- | ment read, “for reconstruction of the military prison in San Francisco Bay.” The amendment seemed thereby to apply to work already in hand, and it was adopted without discussion. The amount authorized by the amendment |for “reconmstruction” is $250,000, of which $50,000 is appropriated. It is| now planned that the Senate shall amend the provision by naming Angel Island, and the Hou conferees head- ed by Tawney will agree to the ghange. The House is not likely to take notice of the matter in the confusion pre- ceding adjournment. WATER RESOURCES First Fight for Appropriation Is Lost in the House | WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—Representa- {tive Needham offered tomight his | amendment to the sundry civil bill, ap- | propriating $200,000 for continuing the investigation of the water resources of | the country. Chairman Tawney immediately made | | a point of order and the chair sustained {it. There was no debate. The fight | will be carried to the Senate. Several Western Senators interested in the in- ve tigation have promised to join the alifornians in trying to get the ap- IMPROVE FORTS HERE WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—The War Department has authorized the con- struction of a water supply at Fort Baker and a water and Sewer system at Fort Barry. The water supply plant at Fort Barry includes the installation of pumps, electrically operated, a new departure at army posts. Both the posts are in California.

Reason- | such as an increase o 123 per cent in the salaries of the underpaid employes of the State hos- | | pitals, were granted, but otherwise | there was chopping and lopping all| | the way down the line. The Secretary | | of State's office was cut $15,000, the | State Printer's estimate shrank $4500 | against his protest, the appropriation for target practice for the-State mili- tia fell from $35,000 to - $20,000, armory | rents were cut $14,000, and-other esti- | mates were cut in like proportion. Many | | of the items allowed would have been | | chopped to a shadow but for special | statutes which made the committee | helpless. | The bill has been made a special| order for Monday morning, and trou-| ble is expected. Even after it passes| the lower house the din of protest | will not cease. Senator Belshaw will be waiting upstairs with a club. He| wanted $40,000 more for San Quentin | than the committee allowed. Courteous | | but firm refusal to oblige met his ap- | | | able demands, peal, and it is now predicted that he will offer an amendment providing for an increase. This will cause some de- lay, but it is believed that the meas- | ure will be in the hands of the Gov- ernor by the end of the coming week.

We will only say this: We do not remember any previous spring season when new goods gave us as much pleasure—when the LACES and TRIMMINGS were as fascinating—when the fancy silks.had the character and richness—when the embroideries, white materials, seemed as dainty, 'clinging—and particularly when the ready-to-wear articles (the walking costume, the out-of-town frock, the wrap and the lingerie waists) are as classy as they are this season.
