Congress was to pass law to accomplish
this purpose. If the Government had the
constitutional power to spend Govern

cHIcAdo's DEMOCRATIC PAPER
The Tlmes-ferald Will Take Its Bow on
Monday

The Tlmea-heraId VIII Take It's BOW on
Monday
Chicago, March 2.-The Times-Herald
will be issued Monday morning, with
James W. Scott as editor-in-chlef and
publisher. and. Henry Hawley as man
aging editor. The Times was
started in 1854 by Isaac Cook, James
w. Sheahan and Daniel Cameron, Demo-
Gratis. In 1860 1t absorbed the original
Herald and the late Cyrus H. Mccormack
obtained control. Wilbur F. Story secured
it in June, 1861, and during the war it had
an eventful history, being once suppress
ed by General Burnside for reasonable ut
terances.
Like all Chicago papers, the Times was
burned out in 1871, but within week ap-
peared again. After Storey's death the
Times was the subject OF much litigation,
and when the various suits were settled
the late Carter Harrison bought it. His
two sons conducted it for time but lost
control through the sale by other heirs to
Adolph Kraus. Afterwards Mr.. Hawley ac-
quired controlling interest for the Harri-
son boys. Mr.. Hawley was successful
newspaper man.
The Herald was organized in May, 1881.
The owners were James W. Scott Frank
w. Palmer, A. NJ. Jones and Daniel Shep-
pard. It was stalwart Republican, and
Mr.. Palmer of the Syracuse Post was editor
in-chief. There was a change in 1883, all
except Scott selling their stock to John r.
Walsh, the banker. The paper became
Democratic. Recently Mr.. Scott acquired
The interest of Mr.. Walsh and brought
about the consolidation with the Times.
The Times-Herald will be the only
Democratic paper in Chicago. The exact
amount involved is not known, the Even
ing Post being included in the sale to Mr..
Scott. but it is said to be about 81, OO0,-
600, which would make the deal the larg-
est relating to newspapers in history.

Matters Put Through With Steady and
Swift Judgment
Flights Of Oratory In the Senate Over the
Naval Appropriation Blil-The
New Navy

Washington, March 2.-The near ap'
proach of the close of Congress maifested
itself today in the crowded galleries, eager
claimants about the corridors and the
hustle and cofusion Of important meas
ures hurriedly passed.
The Senate worked industriously through
out the day and although the naval appro

our new navy the demands of time re-
duced this to a minimum and made RAPID
progress possible. 1t was kept steadily
before the Senate throughout the day
and again at the night session with deter

There were constant interruptions, how
ever, as conference committees reported
their progress in reconciling dlnerences
on pending bills between the Senate and
House.
Early in the day the agricultural and
the fertilization bills were finally agreed
upon and made ready for the freSl'
dents signature. Five others besides the
naval bill are to have differences mar
mOnized in conference.
At the outset of the debate on the naya
bill an effort was made to defeat the plan
of reduction made by the Appropriation
Committee by which the House bill was
cut from about ", 900, 600 and the number
of battleships reduced from three to two
After sharp debate in which the
need of a strong navy was discussed the
committee was sustained.
The speech OF Hill of New York was
notable in urging that the United States
had won her greatest achievements With
out a navy, and urged both diplomacy
and reason instead of cannon balls and
force.
German took occasion during the day te
state if the wholesale appropriations
stood as already made, the total OF this
session would exceed that OF any session
since the Government was founded.
The House, figuratively speaking, rolled
up its sleeves and entered on the work o1
the last Legislative. day OF this session.
1t required steady, swift and accurate
Judgment to pilot matters through the
home stretch, and the Speaker who is as
much of an autocrat in the closing hours
of the dying Congress as the Gar OF Rus
sia, held tight rein. 1t was to be an
all night aession. Galleries were thronged
especially in the evening, when the scene
was truly brilliant one. In the after
noon the Speaker made a few recognl
tions to pass bills by unanimous consent
and under suspension OF rules several wer'
passed.
