WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.- The house
committee on foreign affairs was in ses-
sion four hours to-day, considering the
participation of this government in the
Congo conference. A conclusion
was practically reached that the
resolution prepared by Representative
Phelps would harmonize the views OF
the committee. The resolution provides
that no prospective commercial ad-
vantage warrants departure
irem the traditional policy OF
this government, which tOrbids
all entangling alliances with nations of
tho old world; that the participation OF
delegates from the United States in the
Congo conference, while as
your committee believes was
carefully guarded In purpose TO con
iine their powers to consideration
OF commercial interests exclusively, is
unfortunate, II IL should bo anywhere
recognized an u departure from the poll
cy which forbade the government Of the
United States TO participate In any po-
litical combination or movement out
side of the American continent,
The committee adjourned TIL to-
morrow 10 decide on the nature
Of tho report, of any, which should &C.
company the resolution. The discus
sion indicates that " any
report be adopted II will
be brief and will deal kindly
with tho administration, while
distinctly avorring the participation In
the Congo conference was unfortunate,
because IL weakened the force OF this
doctrine

The Arab Spear.

The London Telegraph says: The
Hadendowa spear is from six to seven
feet long. The handle is of piece OF
hard mimosa or acacia, thinner than a
broom handle. There is a long socket
attached to the blade, into which the
wood is driven and fastened. At the re-
verse end there is commonly piece of
twisted iron or telegraph wire, which
serves the double purpose of weighing
the handle, so as to counterbalance the
blade, and to prevent the weapon being
pulled from the grasp. The spear head
or blade is rarely more than two inches
broad by eight inches long. Going into
battle the Hadendowas grease their
spears from blade to hilt, so that it is
impossible to wrest the weapon from
their hands in struggle.
The spears used by the tribes up the
Nile are much more formidable weapons.
The handle is from seven feet to nine
feet long, made of male bamboo wood.
It is furnished with a terrible broad
bladed long spear head, like that of the
HadendoWas, kept bright as a mirror
and sharp as a razor. The blades are
sometimes fourteen inches long and five
inches wide. In truth, an Arab spear
up the Nile looks more like an elongated
trowel blade than anything else. Shovel
heads our soldiers used to call them.
They make fearful wound, and it was
with one of these Col. Burnaby was
struck in the throat and killed. Being
exceedingly light weapons, although
badly balanced, the Arabs can handle
them with great dexterity.

Frederick I. Frelnghuysen was born Of
Millstown, Somerset County, N. J., on August
4, 1911 He graduated from Rutgers College
in 1885, and, being admitted to the Bar three
years later began practice in Newark, where he
was soon elected CITY Counsel Then he be-
came counsel of the Central Railroad Company
Of New Jersey, the Prosecutor of the Pleas Of
Essex County, and in 1861 a member Of the
Peace Commission at Washington. In 1861 he
was also appointed Attorney General Of New
Jersey and he received reappointment in
1866.
In the latter year United States Senator
William Wright, of New Jersey, died, and Mr..
Frelinghuysen was appointed in his stead
The Legislature in 1867 elected him to fill the
uneXpired term, and in 1863 he was reelected
Senator for the full term Of six years. He
served on the Committee, upon the Judiciary,
Pensions Claims, Naval Affairs and Foreign
Afiairs, and was Chairman of the Committee
on Agriculture In 1870 he was nominated
by President Grant as Minister to England
but he declined the appointment after
It h'd been unanimously confirmed by the
Senate. bir. Frelinghuysen took prominent
part in many important contests in the Senate
upon various matters Of legislation. He was
a strong hard-money man, and was sup
porter OF the protective tariff. In all cues
tons growing out of the Rebellion he repre-
scented the views Of the dominant element in
the Republican party. After the death of
Senator Sumner, ne succeeded to the latier's
championship Of the Civil Rights Bill the final
passage Of which was secured largely through
his efforts.
Mr. Frelinghuysen was reelected to the Sem
ate for term ending in March, 1877. During
the controversy over the result of the Presi-
dental election of 1876 he was one of the
Joint Committee which framed the bill provid-
ing for the electoral count, and then served as
member Of the Electoral Commission. When
his term expired, he returned TO his home in
New Jersey, and soon afterward resumed law
practice. In December, 1851, he was ap-
pointed Secretary Of State in President
Arthur's Cabinet. and he continued in this
position until the recent change Of the Adj
minissration,
