A delegation from the camp of sKelly's in

of the House Committee on Labor yesterday
afternoon. Chairman McGann referred them
to Col. Tracey, superintendent of charity for
the District.
The spokesmen, one from Omaha and the
other from Sacramento. said that they and
their associates. now that their leaders were
leaving them, wanted transportation to the
West where they could get work. Gen. Kelly
they said would leave to-day, and they did
not know where TO look for food or shelter
Col. Tracey at once reported the matter to
the District Commissioners who were in town,
Col Truesdell and Capt. Powell. In addition
TO the fact that Roslyn is out OF the District
there are apparently insurmountable difficult
ties in the way of anything being done by
Washington authorities.
There is not dollar in the transportation
fund, and even If the District appropriation
bill had passed the usual allowance would be
utterly inadequate to send away large body
of men.
The citizens central relief fund was ex-
hausted by the final distribution a month ago.
Under these circumstances it seems that the
only chance Of relief lies In Congressional
action. The delegates are to call on the Labor
Committee at o'clock to-day.

The workmen in the Washington navy yard
arc still in state OF anxiety concerning the
tenure Of their positions. The force has been
gradually reduced from 1000 men TO about

past and the current month in such
manner as to cause many ques-

No reason was given those discharged
and this fact has given rise to comment. 1t
was given out that a lack of appropriation is
the real reason for the reduction in the work

Sent by Japan to Succeed Him.
NJ. Tateno, the japanese minister to the
United States, has been recalled. The recall.
it is stated, is due not to anything connected
with tho present Japanese Chinese Corean
difficulties.
Mr.. Tateno has served In Washington
nearly four years. and his relations in that
time with our Government have been Of the
most cordial nature. He is not, it is stated
detached from the Japanese diplomatic serv-
ice, but will return to Japan bearing the
rank Of Envoy Extraordinary unattached,
and If the precedents are followed probably
will become vice minister to one OF the de-
partments, a sufficient evidence that no
stigma attaches to his recall.
Mr.. Tateno's history Is interesting. He
comes from one OF the highest families in
Japan-o:ie OF the "Two-sworded" class. He
was originally and for many years an officer
in the Imperial household, and when Gen.
Grant visited Japan he was specially desig-
mated by the Emperor TO escort the General

Grant. Mr.. Tateno afterwards became Gov
ernor Of the provinces Of Osaka, and by his
kindly administration endeared himself to the
large foreign colony who recognized his ef-
forts in their behalf, especially on the occasion
Of the great floods, by handsome testimonials.
He held this post ten years and then be-
came q member of the japanese Senate. which
place he relinquished to accept the appoint
ment, in January, 1891, of japanese minister
to Washington.
Mr.. Kentaro Kaneko, who will succeed Mr..
Tatene, is a man of erudition and of distinc-
tion in his own country. He was educated in
the United States, and is graduate of Har-
ward and of the Cambridge Law School. He
is about forty-two years Of age, and has ac-
quired fame as parliamentarjan.
He visited the leading countries of Europe
and made an exhaustive study Of their sys-
TENS of government, and returning to Japan
framed the code of parliamentary practice
which governs their Senate and House. He
was general secretary of the Imperial House
Of Peers, a position corresponding to that of
of the Senate in our country, and
since then has held the post of vice minister
of agriculture and commerce.

CANNON TOOK BACK HIS shot
He Had Said the Metropolitan Mas
Mr.. Heard's "Pet Road"
CONFERENCE REPORT ADOPTED
Some Slight Resistance in the Latter
Old Cars Must Be Replaced Reciprocal
Transfer Arrangements to Be Made.

The conference report on the metropolitan
railroad bill was presented to the House yes
terday morning and to the Senate yesterday
afternoon. 1t was accepted by both bodies
there being slight resistance in the House
where Mr.. Cannon, of Illinois, thought the
voltage ought to be uniform instead Of 800 or
the Metropolitan line and 500 on the Roch
Creek line. He called the Metropolitan one
of the "pet roads of the chairman Mr.. Heard
of the House District Committee"
This little suggestion was at once resented
by Mr.. Heard, who said he had no pet
schemes. and that the insinuation was cow
ardly and contemplate. Mr.. Cannon apollo
gized, and stated he meant no insinuntion OF
benefits to Mr.. Heard.
The main changes in the bill were two:
First, requiring the old cars on the road to be
replaced within ninety days, in which the
House yielded to the Senate, and the addi-
tional requirement for transfers, in accord
ance with sections 4 and 5, were stricken
out and a substitute inserted, as follows:
That the Metropolitan Railroad Company
is hereby authorized and required immedi-
ately to make reciprocal transfer arrange
ments with street railways whose lines now
connect with its lines, and to furnish such
facilities therefor as the public convenience
may require. Upon the completion Of the
underground electric system provided for in
this act. the said Metropolitan Railway Com
pany is hereby further authorized and re-
quired to enter into reciprocal trackage
with connecting lines.
1.-The schedules and compensation shall
be mutually agreed upon between the said
Metropolitan Railroad Company and the
with whose lines it connects: and
in any case OF failure to reach such mutual
agreement the matters in dispute shall be
determined by the Supreme Court OF the
District Of Columbia upon petition filed by
either party. Provided that every street
railway company in the District Of Co.
lumbia whose lines connect or whose lines
may hereafter connect with the lines Of any
other street railway company, is hereby
subjected to the same requirements as to
transfers and trsckage arrangements and
upon similar conditions as in this section
provided in the case of the Metropolitan
Railroad Company and the lines connecting
herewith"
Other changes were that the House
provision requiring that the underground
system be an electric one, be allowed to
stand. The Senate amendments providing
hat the Ninth street tracks and Florida
avenue tracks to and on Seventh street be
is stricken out. In all other amend
nents chiefly verbal, the Senate conferees
won their point.
