ANY Necessity for an Extra Session.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The Senate is
shaping up its business with the firm de-
examination to adjourn March 4 without
leaving behind it the necessity for an extra
session. To this end the steering COM
uittee of the republican majority has
already arranged programme that would
of itself occupy the attention of the Senate
for two weeks. This arrangement, how
ever, is not final, as it must be formally
approved by the republican CAUCUS and is,
besides, subject ointerruption in its work
ings by the appropriation bills.
fHE FIRST ON THE LIST.
The fertilization appropriation bill comes
M tomorrow as the unfinished business,

ST. AUGUSTINE, Feb. 1.-Eugene p. Bo-
sanquet, son of wealthy English banker
of London, England, was bitten
by rattlesnake willis hunting
near Daytona at 10 o'clock this morn
ing with his London friend. Evelyn Walker.

left leg, above the ankle. Evelyn Walker,
his English companion, carried him on his
shoulder to Daytona, meanwhile sucking
the poison from the wound. Mr. Bosanquet
and Mr. Walkers family, all Of London,
have spent the fall here. Mrs. Walker, q
relative. sailed for England on Thursday
from New York. The affiictioa IS a sad
blow TO many English families OF note.

In the House.

Although the House has been engaged
practically the whole Of the past week in
the consideration of the regular annual APP
preparation bills, these measures are still in
an unusually backward state, and it is the
intention Of the majority to permit sub
stantially no legislation except the shipping
bill to engage the attention Of the House
until the scene of action on the appropria>
ton bills is very generally transferred from
the House to the Senate wing Of the capitol.
THE SHIPPING BILL.
1t is the purpose of the committee on the
merchant marine to make efforts to call up
the shipping bill and press it to a final vote
as soon as the consular and diplomatic aps
preparation bill, now under consideration,
is passed; but, in view of the determined
opposition heretofore made to the shipping
bill, there is some question as to the ability
of its friends to carry out their expressed
intention, especially as it is almost certain
to be antagonized by one or more appropri-
alton bills.
ON THE CALENDAR.
The Indian and legislative, executive al nd
judicial appropriation bills are on the cal
endar awaiting action, and will be called up
at the first favorable opportunity.
Mr.. Bland and the other free coinage
silver men are growing more restless daily
atlthe failure of the coinage committee to
act on the Senate silver bill, and have an
nounced their determination, If the COM
mittee does not settle the matter at the next
regular meeting, Wednesday, TO precipitate
the fight to the floor of the House without
waiting for the committee to report.
APPROPRIATION BILLS WAY BEHIND.
Only four weeks and three days remain
OF the Ffty-hrst congress, aud not q single
one OF the thirteen regular annual appro-
priatlon bills have been finally passed by
both branches Of congress and sent TO the
President. But one of these bills has passed
the Senate-the army bill-which went
through yesterday with a number of
amendments, on which the action of
the House is needed. The pension and
fortlhcation appropriations bills are on the
Senate calendar ready for consideration.
Three other bills, namely, those making ap-
preparations for the District of Columbia.
military academy and the navy, have
passed the House, but have not yet been
acted upon by the Senate committee
STATUS OF THE OTHERS.
VI the remaining appropriation bills the
consular and diplomatic and the Indian
and legislative have been reported to the
House, and two others, the sundry civil
and agricultural, will be placed on the
calendar early this week, SO that the general
denclency and postoffice bills will be the
only ones left to be reported from the COM
mlttee
While the present condition of the an
pTopIlatlon bills is not encouraging as COM

congresses, no doubt is entertained by ex-

WASHINGTON, Feb. Representative
Cooper of Indiana says that the committee
appointed to investigate Commissioner
Raum has thwarted the minority at nearly
every turn, and yet, notwithstanding this,
ample evidence has been produced to con-
vict Gen. Raum Of using the pen
sion office for his personal benefit
and receiving favors from notorious pen

official capacity. he hasn't the slightest
idea what the President may do when he

Beet Sugar Industry In Cali
fOrnia.

| 1OTn1as
The beet sugar experiment has
proved a complete success from the
point of view of the manufacturer.
Ehe Chino sugar itself is splendid
staple, and it is far sweeter, by
actual experiment, than the ordin-
airy granulated sugar which is sold
in the market. Southern California
may justly pride herself on this
new industry. 1t now only re-
mains that the growing of beets
shall be made satisfactory to the
farmer to insure an industry in this
portion of the State which will ad-
init of indefinite expansion. The
Chino people this year expect to
turn out 100000 pounds of sugar.
The bounty on this alone will put
in the pockets of the Messrs. OK
nard 100000. AS to the farmer,
he will receive for his beets
1926 q ton for all which
have IL per cent. of sugar,
and 20 cents additional for all beets
that go 1 per cent. or more over
that figure. Thus, if his beets shall
go 10 per cent. he will receive 81
ton. In some cases he may hope
that his beets will show is per
cent. by the saccharometer, in
which case he will receive S4.75 a
ton. The soil in the vicinity of the
Chino, and generally all over Los
Angeles County, is rich in saccha.
rlne constituents. The yield of
sugar beets to the acre, of course.
varies. In some instances as high
as thirty tons to the acre will be
recorded, but in many cases from
twelve to fifteen tons will be fair
yield. II is a conservative estimate
to say that from $50 to $50 an acre
will be the farmers share of the
division of profits of the new in
dustry. This Is an eminentlv
satisfactory return to the pro-
Queer. The farmer in the most
favored sections of the East is
very we'll content with profit
of from $40 to SIS an acre.
In Germany 100000 acres are de-
voted to the culture of the sugar
beet. In France, also, an enormous
acreage is planted in sugar beets. |
1t is thus safe to assume that there |
is no danger of exceeding the de-
mand for years to come. The mag
nitude of the consumption of sugar
in the United States is shown by |
the fact that the duties released by
the Mckinley bill on this staple |
amounted to about 100000, 900.
There is thus "milllons in it," and
our farmers may be trusted to reap
their full share. Meanwhile the
demand of the hour is for more
manufactories.--Los An
yeles Herald.
