IN THE COMMITTEE ROOMS.
The Bill to Transfer the Revenue Cut.
tiers to the Navy, ETC., Considered.

The House committee on naval affairs has
virtually completed the consideration of Mr..
Lodges bill for the transfer of the revenue
cutter service from the Treasury to the Navy
department. Some amendments have
been made to the original bill, so
that at present it does not forbid the appoint
ment Of naval officers to command over the rev.
enue marine officers, but provides that no such
appointment shall be made until it is approved
by the Secretary of the Treasury. Another
amendment permits the revenue cadets to elect
between joining the first class OF naval
cadets at Annapolis and becoming naval off,
GERS, or passing an examination and joining the
service direct with the rank OF ensign, but
with the stipulation that they shall not be
eligible for promotion beyond the grade OF
Lieutenant commander in the navy. The bill
will be submitted to the Secretary of the Treas
ury for approval before being reported to the
House. Another amendment is necessary to
abolish the present revenue marine force at
New York.
TO PROPAGATE THE BUFFALO.
Senator Plumb's bill, introduced today, for
the protection Of the American bison, provides
that all the lands lying in what is known as the
neutral strip, adjoining Texas, be reserved for
twenty years for the purpose of propagating
the American bison and other native wild ami
mails. The bill authorizes the Secretary of the
Interior to lease this tract Of land to G. J.
Jones Of Garden City, Kansas, on condition
that all his herd of bison and cross breeds be
placed on this reservation, and that none of
years. The Secretary of Agriculture is to make
all needful rules for their care, and in case Mr..
Jones fails to carry them out he shall forfeit
the lease.
