SALEM, Or, April 25.-In an interview
today Governor Pennoyer said:
Although the state conventions of both parties
in Oregon have gone back on free coinage, / do
not believe the people have. 1t is my opinion
that the state election in June will furnish a
great surprise to everybody. As the late Demo
cratic convention rejected the free coinage
plank upon which / stood two years ago and
upon which still stand, there is nothing left
for me to do during the pending canvass but to
stay at home and saw wood.

Appropriations for Washington.

WASHINGTON CITY, April 25-fSpecial.
Senator Allen said today that he ex-
pected that all the amendments that Sem
ator Squire and he had presented for
waterways Improvements in Washing
ton would be favorably reported
from the committee on commerce
and incorporated in the regular
river and harbor bill when il
was reported to the Senate from that COM
mittee. He also anticipated that the
Lake Washington ship canal bill will be
reported in the same manner to the Sen
ate. While Senator Allen has no knowl-
edge at this time, it is not i'm
probable that some of the approprla-
tions asked for by the Washing
ton delegation in the Senate will
be cut down. 1t is hardly to be expected
that everything the Washington senators
have asked for in this line Will be granted.
but there is possibility that majority of
the appropriations asked for will be in
creased in many cases to the amount
asked for in the different amendments.

YEAS.

Wolcott and Dolph were paired with
Kenna and George.
Platt moved to amend the substitute so
as to exclude from the anti-Chinese laws,
to be extended for ten years, the Scott ex-
clusion act of 1888.
Sherman said that he was not inclined
to vote for the amendment, although he
declared the Scott law one of the most
vicious passed since he had been in con-
gress. Its passage was the result of the
race between two political parties to try
and influence the vote of the Pacific coast
in the last presidential election.
Platt's amendment was rejected: Yeas
8, nays45 The yeas were: Bate, Blodgett,
Call, Dawes, Dixon, Frye, Platt and Pugh.
Chandler offered an amendment in
creasing the penalty for the unlawful
coming of Chinese laborers. Rejected.

all Chinese residents, except diplomatic
and other officers and their servants, to
obtain within one year from the collector
of internal revenue in their respective dis
tricts certificate of residence, and appro-
priating 100000 to carry out that pro-
vision. Rejected.
The bill, as amended, was then passed
without division and the title amended to
read: "To prohibit the coming of Chi
nese persons into the United States.''
A conference with the House was asked.
Among the numerous protest spresented
today, the principal ones from the Sew
enth Day Adventists, urging congress not
to commit itself to any religious creed by
urging that the Columbian exposition be
closed on Sundays: also, two remon-
strances from Massachusetts, against the
passage of the Chinese exclusion BILL

would take precedence of all other mat
ters.
Coke gave notice that he would address
the Senate very briefly tomorrow on Nor

TO KEEP CHINESE OUT.
Senate Passes a Substitute for
the Geary Bill.
SQUIRE MAKES STRONG SPEECH.
Decided to Hold an Important Con-
ference With the House.
The Senate Bill Continues In Force ALL
Of the Present Laws and Regulates
the Coming of tho Chinese for Ten
Years.

WASHINGTON CRY, April 25.-The Chi
nese exclusion bill was taken up in the
Senate today. The presiding officer put
the question on the adoption of the sub
stitute reported By the committee on for
eign relations. Sherman gave the only
affirmative vote, and there being no vote
IN the negative, the presiding officer de-
clared the substitute adopted.
Immediately afterwards, however,
Mitchell, who had the floor to speak
against the substitute, came into the
chamber, and the presiding officer was
proceeding to put the question again,
when Butler said he understood that the
substitute was adopted. The presiding of
ficer admitted that he had so decided, but
said he would put the question again, and
while the chair did sos decide, he wonld
count it as mo vote" The chair said:
us the Senate ready for the question:"
mo, SIR" said Mitchell. Instead, how
ever, of proceeding with his own argument
against the substitute, he yielded the
floor to Squire, who argued in favor of the
House bill, or some other vigorous meas
ure to enforce the exclusion of the Chinese.
He declared, however, that the great
trouble in the matter was the lax and in
etfectual manner in which the existing
laws are executed. and to sustain that
view read copious extracts from the testi-
mony taken by the Senate committee on
that subject a few years ago.
Mitchell, speaking upon the Chinese bill.
said:
Much as he regretted to antagoniza the deiib-
crate judgment of the committee on foreign re-
lations, he felt impelied by sense of duty to
vote against the substitute and in favor of alb
solute Chinese exclusion, as expressed in the
House bill.
The discussion was continued until
O'Clock, when vote was taken on the
substitute measure reported from the COM
mittee on foreign relations, and it was
agreed to: Yeas, AZ; nays, IA.

HIS NAME Is DENNIS.
An Ex-seattle Reporter Passes Spurious
Checks at Port Townsend

PoRI TOWNSEND. April 25.-TSpecial. +
Louis Ratham Dennis, of Seattle, who has
been working the town several days, came
to grief today. Assuming the guise of an
internal revenue inspector, he fieeced sew
eral liquor dealers by passing spurious
checks. City Surveyor Causten indorsed a
check for SO on Tacoma bank, when a
telegram informed him Dennis had no
funds there. Dennis worked himself into
the confidence of several naval officers
now in port, all of whom suffered finan-
cialiy. AT the Clarendon saloon he boldly
walked in and tore down an old
internal revenue license, ran big bar bill
and then threatened 10 arrest the proprie-
tor if he did not at once paw him for an
other license. Charles Hankins, q local
prize fighter, who was present, then black
ened both of Dennis eyes.
Dennis was employed as a reporter on
the Seattle Press Tines, and is a son of
General John B. Dennis. chief deputy COL
lector of the internal revenue service at
Omaha, Neb. Friends of Dennis late this
evening interceded and paid his indebted
ness and he was released from Jail.

woes as lawyer had only nicely begun.
Several courts refused to permit her to
practice before them, and would not
even hear her in her own behalf, so that
she was obliged to impress her husband
into service to argue her cases. After
two or three bills providing for extend
ing to women the privilege of practicing

the Legislature from one cause or an
other, one finally got through after
three years struggle, and then Mrs.
klgore became full fiedged attorney
at law, and was admitted to practice in
the supreme court of the state, which of
course carried with it a similar right in
ali lower courts.
Since then Mrs. Kilgore's career has
been a brilliant as well as a profitable
and pleasant one. She has acquired a
large practice of her own, which has
been augmented by much of that of her
husband, who died some time ago. She
has on many occasions been appointed

a practitioner in the supreme court of

chairman of the Woman's School Suf-
frage association, of Cook county. Mrs.
Ahrens Is not alone a lawyer, although
that is at present her profession. She
has also practiced medicine, and has
been teacher, lecturer, an artist and
an amateur foriculturist and horticul-
turist at different periods of her half
century of life. In 1857 she left the

a farmer named Fellows. They had
three children. Afterward the family
