ANACOSTIA.

When AnacostanS awoke this morning
they found themselves somewhat snow
bound. With the best of exertion the An
acoStia railway was unable to cope with
the elements and this morning there were
no cars running to take the many office
holders to their work in the city. The
more venturesome essayed to foot 1T across
the bridge and take the avenue cars, but
fully fifty persons after reaching the An
acostia end of the bridge turned back, ow-
ing to the fearful raging of wind. Tele-
graph and telephone wires We'd with each
other in emitting whir after whir, and
Groan after groan. The wind lifted the
snow from its bed on the river and 1t
gyrated in the air until one could not see
his hand before him. The wind blew
SO strongly that at times pedestrians who
did venture across the bridge were in
danger of being lifted from their feet and
blown into some snow drift, which was
on the frozen river beneath, and which was
revealed only by the momentary subsiding
of the bowling wind. Such was the con-
dition that greeted those who ventured
across the bridge this morning, and few
indeed were the number. Station Keeper
Eckloff of the Anacostia station was at
his post on time, and, as has always BEEN
his custom, lie walked the bridge from the
city. Mr.. Eckloff is going on seventy years
of age. but this did not deter him.
The fearfully raging storm of last night
affected but little the intended installa.
ton of officers of the Epworth League OF
the Methodist Church. There was good
attendance and Rev. James McLaren pro-
ceeded with the ceremony promptly on
time. The officers installed were: Pres
ident, j. E. Powell; second vice president,
Mrs. James McLaren; third vice president
Mrs. J. E. Powell; fourth vice president,
Miss Linda Pumphrey; secretary, F. A.
Dony; and treasurer, Mr.. Lacey. There
was but one absentee among those to be
installed: that was the first vice president
After the reading of the psalms in concert,
and the singing of the hymn, the officers
were summoned to stand in front of the
service and outline of duties of the re-
spectivc officers was attended to. Follow
ing the services the ladies served hot cof-
fee and sandwiches and cake. reception
among the members and benediction by the
pastor closed the exercises.
Postmaster Tolson has received supplies
for the poor since yesterday which will en-
able him to relieve many of the suffer-
ing poor. A baker has donated 500 loaves
CT bread, the gas company has donated 100
bushels of coke, and from funds furnish
ed Mr. Tolson has purchased several tons
of coal. In addition to this provisions and
clothing have been received and will be
distributed today and tomorrow. This,
however. said Mr.. Tolson, is only a drop as
to what is needed. There is great de-
mand, the poor are in awful circumstances
and need the assistance of all citizens.
The Citizens Association is to meet to-
night in Hanes' Hall, on Harrison street.

NOT TO INTERFERE.
America VIII Keep Her Hands OF In
the Eastern War.

Considerable interest is displayed in Off
cial and diplomatic circles in the reports
from London indicating disposition on the
part of Great Britain, France and Russia
to interfere at the proper stage of HOSTILE
ties between China and Japan. These re-
ports have acquired additional significance
from the recent speech from the throne of
Queen Victoria.
That sovereign, in a guarded and diplo-
matte manner limited that when the time
came the relations between the great pow
ers would be found sufficiently harmonious
to insure the restoration of peace between
Japan and China. By the terms of the I'M
Outstanding as reported. Japan will not be
permitted to acquire an inch of the terri
tory on the Chinese mainland.
1t has been confidently expected here that
the powers would intervene whenever 1t
should appear that China was really van
ouished and was suing invain for peace upon
reasonable terms. but so far as the reports
referred to indicate any possibility of action
in that line by the United States in con-
junction with other powers, it is clearly
erroneous for it can be positively stated
that under no probable conditions can the
President be induced to depart so far from
a policy of non-intervention. 1t is no cause
of surprise here that Germany, too, will re-
frain from joining in an intervention which
would be distasteful to Japan, for our con-
sUls in the latter country report that the
German traders are making extraordinary
progress in supplanting all other foreigners
in securing control of the Japanese foreign

tee in the House Measure.
Senator CockreIl, from the committee on
appropriations, has reported the Indian
enpropriat ton bill The total appropriation
made by it is So, 500, 100. an increase of
s6os,97O. The appropriation made by the
House for the support of Indian pupils at

education of Indians placed in the control
of the Secretary of the Interior is m
creased to 81 273 44O. Four hundred thou
sand dollars is appropriated for the survey
of lands in Indian territory.
The Secretary of the Interior is author
lied to negotiate with the Otoe and Mis-
sourian tribes for the purchase or a sum-
Gent quantity of their surplus lands to
slIot to members of the Iowa tribe. An
imnortant amendment is that appro-
prjating $4,000 for the survey and aliot-
Inent of lands and providing that an al
lotter who on account of physical disa-
biljty cannot occupy his allotment, may
lease the same. and also providing that
the surplus lands of any tribe whose lands
are allotted may lease the surplus for farm
ing purposes One of the general amend
rnepts provides that no person shall be
emp!oyed as farmer or stockman who has
not been at least five years previously en-
gagged in the practical occupation OF 1afm-
ing.
TWENTY-FIVE thousand dollars of the ap-
nropriation for Arizona and New Mexico
is made Immediately available, supposedly
for the relief of the destitute NavaJoes.
The provision allowing the Secretary OF
the Interior to pay the StOckbridge Indians
per capita one-half of the fund now to
their credit in the United States treasury
11pon the complement of the allotment
of their lands is stricken out.

Tournament.

Last Nights Contests in the Bowling
Tournament.
The bowling contest on the alleys of the
Columbia Athletic Club last night between
the home team and the team Of the Young
Mems Catholic Club was one we'll worth
seeing, and, win or lose, it was a match Of
a high standard.
Frank Stone of the Columbus welded the
wooden sphere with wizard-like dexterity.
He bowled down sol pins, the best three
string run of the evening, and he also ran
off 1S5 for the best single string of the
evening.
The redoubtable Jimmy O'Connor did the
best work for the Y. M. C. c. team. In
his serial run he bowled down 4S5 pins.
The willowy Mulquin made III pins for the
highest ten-frame score for the same team.
The Columbus made the splendid team
total of 1888 pins and the clever young
cracks from GoEzaga College were right
at their heels, with 1905 pins piled up In
the pit.
The snow flew and the wind whistled
without, but the pins ratified and rolling
balls hummed within, and the genial Joe
Hunter did the roofing for both teams and
everybody else.
The scores in detail are as follows:

He Is Now Lieut.. Gen. of the Army
Other Combinations.


There was a very unusual motion made
in open session of the Senate yesterday
afternoon by Senator Hunton, which was
in effect the confirmation of an important
nomination without the formality of clos
ing the DOORS Late in the afternoon Mr..
Hunton broke in upon a speech that was
being made by Mr.. Kyle upon the Ha-
waiian cable amendment, and asked per-
mission to move an executive session.
There was brief talk upon the order OF the
debate and then Mr.. Hunton said: Il de-
Sire particularly to have an executive ses-
sion this evening for the purpose OF con-
firming the nomination of Gen. Schofield.
He was commander of military district No.
l. which was that in effect he was gov
ernor of Virginia, and he has left behind
him none but friends in my state. l desire
to show my appreciation OF the promotion
to the high grade to which he has been
nominated by confirming MN at the very
first moment we can.
Mr.. Hunton deferred for few moments
to allow q bill to be passed, and then re-
newed his motion, which was carried. Inc
doors were closed, Gen. SchofieldS nomi-
nation was unanimously confirmed, and in
five minutes the doors We're reopened, and
the Senate adjourned. Other combinations

A COMMISSION PROPOSED
How It isSuggested to Settle Certain Claims
Against the Government.
Three NOn-Partisan and Experienced
Lawyers to Determine Both the
Law and Facts as to Them.

In the report recently submitted to the
House by the war claims committee the
statement is made that the total number
of congressional and other claims against
the government, old and new, which no de-
partment has authority to audit and set
tie, and which are now pending, is proba-
bly, under 1000, aggregating about $i0,0
600 in amount.
The committee in considering a remedy
for this condition OF affairs suggest a
method for the settlement of the claims
which, "after much study and discussion,
is thought to be adequate and compre-
hensive.' This provides for the appoint
| ment by the President of a non-partisan
commission of three good and experienced
lawyers, clothed with full jurisdiction to
hear and finally determine, on both the law
and the facts, all claims against the gov
eminent now pending which. under ex-
isting laws, no department is authorized to
audit and settle, with the right of appeal
in all cases where the amount involved is
over 5000.
Results to BE Obtained.
The Attorney General is to make the de-
Tense in each case. All decisions are to be
certified to Congress for appropriation.
and all claims of which the commission
is given Jurisdiction are TO be barred UNI
less filed in two years.
Inc results to be obtained by this metnOd
are set out in the report, as follows:
Such a commission could carefully ex-
anime every claim which would be brought
before 1t in four years time, and furnish
Congress with skilful, accurate and hon
est state ment of the law, facts and equities
in each case, SO that we would be prepared
TO deal justly and honestly with our credit
ors, rendering to every man his due.
Under such a system there could be no
double payments; If frauds existed they
would be unearthed and exposed, and the
real truth in each case elected.
Congress would be relieved from much
exhausting and unfrutful labor; bad and
unfounded claims would be barred, and
the promoters thereof be driven into better
business; the claim agents lobby, if such
a thing exists, would be abolished. Many
thousands of dollars would be saved each
year in printing, and the time of Congress
and its committees greatly economical for
larger and more important affairs.
More important than all else, however.
the government would be relieved from the
scadalous charge of not paying it's honest
debts, many needy and deserving persons
would receive what is rightly due them.
and the scheme in the end would be a
measure of substantial economy to the
country

New Ground Keeper.

Jack Murphy, who had charge of the
ball park at Erie, Pa, last season, and is
a brother of the Murphy in charge of the
Baltimore league grounds, will be ground
keeper at National Park this year. Before
going to Erie he had charge of the parks
at Minneapolis and Milwaukee. His cor
tract calls for him to come to Washington
on March /, on which day he will select a
force of laborers and put in nearly two
months of work at National Park. The
grounds certainly need it. Compared with
such grounds as those at Eastern Park,
Brooklyn. the outfield last season was
