WASHINGTON, Feb. 2G.-The senate
finance committee today ordered favor
able report ON an amendment to the
sundry civil appropriation bill, to provide
for the appointment Of commission of
nine on behalf of the United States to
attend an international conference on
the rehabilitation of silver in case one
shall be decided upon. At Voorhees,
request the senate referred it at once to
the appropriation committee, to be acted
on as part Of the sundry civil bill The
committee struck out the provision spe-
cifying the countries upon whose invita-
tion the president shall determine that
this country shall be represented, and
now it simply provides that he shall act
with such conference il called. The
provision regarding the appointment of
commissioners on behalf of the United
States is made to read as follows: The
president of the United States shall
select three delegates, the senate shall
select three members of the senate as
delegates, and the house of representa-
tives shall select three of it's members as
delegates. If at any time there shall be
any vacancy, such vacancy shall be filled
by the president of the United States.
Berry spoke against the proposed
committee amendment to the sundry
civil bill reducing the appropriation for
protecting timber lands from $4,000 to
100000, and moved an increase to 500,
600. German opposed the increase
When the appropriation for timber
inspectors was reached, Wolcott took the
floor.
"The socalled timber inspectors" said
Wolcott, contemptuously, "are lot of
broken down politicians who will trample
over each other as soon as this appropri-
alton is adopted" The senator declared
that when these men were not engaged
in blackmaiing railroads out Of passes
they we're dragging some poor prospectol
to the federal courts.

Berry made as to the increase of many
offices, but decrease in this particular
case. Gorman declared be knew no party
and no administration in his action on
these appropriations. 1T is the first,
said Berry excitedly, "that ever heard
of the senator from Maryland as a civil
service reformer. If the senator meant
to infer that he Berry was getting this
appropriation in order to put political
fayorites in place he was stating what
was not true. 1t had been repeatedly
charged that the senator from Maryland
had fitted out one of the great branches
of the government with his appontees
German, apparently unrutlled, made nc
reply. Stewart further denounced the
timber agents as curse to the west. Al
amendment for the payment OF q sugar
bounty was declal ed in order today on a
yea and nay vote of 10 to 1G, which prac
tica,ly carries it.

The subject of advertising is re-.
ceiving unusual attention among
puplic men as we'll as business men
now, and tue best methods of invest
ing money for that purpose comes
in for liberal share of the discus
sion. In public speech the other
day. Mr.. Balfour, the English states
man, said, the newspaper in Its ca
pacity as an advertising agent is af
ter all,of the first importance to any
civilized society, inasmuch as it
brings together those who have
something to sell and those who
have something to buy" Colonel
Frank n. Barksdale, advertising
manager for the Pennsylvania rail-
road, probably pays more money for
advertising that any individual in
the United States. In an interview
recently published in Printers Ink
he says he favors every method that
will attract attention to the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, and adds, "but our
principal advertising is done in the
newspapers. We do not get as good
results from any other source" This
is the common verdict of all expert.
enced and intelligent advertisers, and
Colonel Barksdales evidence on the
subject will go long way toward
convicing all who know him that he
has the right notion on the subject.

The robbery was successfully car
