He Finds That the Late Congress APP
prOprIated Over 81. 900. 900. 900.
WASHINGTON, March s.-Representa-
ative Cannon of Illinois, on behalf of
the Republican minority of the house
committee on appropriations, has pre-
pared a summary showing the total
expenditures of the Fifty third con-
gress and comparing them with the
expenditures of the so-ca1led "billion
dollar congress-, - in which Mr.. Cannon
was at the head of the appropriation
committee. The statement will be
published as part of the Con-
gressional Record.
From this statement it appears
the appropriations CT the Fifty first
congress, when Mr.. Reed was speaker
of the house, and the president and
the senate were Republican, were, in
round numbers, $685. 600, 600. while
the appropriations of the Fifty sec
ond congress, when the house was
Democratic and Mr.. Crisp was speaker,
was, in round numbers, 81, OPT, 600, 600,
and the appropriations of this con-
gress, with president, house and
senate all Democratic, are in round
numbers 1890, 600, 600. Moreover, the
late sale of the thirty year per cent
United States bonds-the payment of
interest upon which is permane Mt
swells the total appropriations for
this and the next fiscal year by
50, 900, 900, making the grand total
actually appropriated by this con-
gress, in round numbers, $993, 600, 900.
This exceeds the appropriations made
by the Fifty-first congress. called by
our Democratic friends the billion
dollar congress- in round numbers by
S.. 600, 900.
This congress. furthermore, in
addition to the actual increase of. APP
preparations, has authorized public
work to be done under contract, leav-
ing the next congress to make appro-
fertilization act 1925, 900; by sundry
civil act, So, Ss5, 900; by District Of
Columbia act, 1851, 1894; by naval ap-
preparation act, $14, IT'S, 900; total
$21. CSC, Isl.
''Thus the appropriations and au-
thorizations of this congress are seen
to be, in round numbers, 81, OILS, 900, 600.
81 call attention that the appropria-
tions of pensions to the defenders of
the republic in war, and to their
widows and orphans, by this congress.
under Cleveland, are $40, 12o, 616 less
than those made by the Fifty
congress-the last two years under
Harrison. This $42, 900, 600 decrease
gives in figures the tangible result of
an unfriendly-I will not go further
and say unjust-administ ira ton of
the pension laws under Cleveland"

Chance for the Civilized Tribes.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The contin-
uance of the Dawes Commission I'M
der the circumstances attending the
making of the appropriation for its

cant action of congress. The FIVE
tribes are face to face with their last
opportunity for dealing with the gov
eminent as independent authorities.
If the next congress shall find nc
change in the attitude, no yielding to
the effort of the re1uvenated commits
sion, no expression of recognition
that the existing order must pass
away and no cooperation with au.
thorized endeavor to effect the neces-
sary change with as little friction as
possible, then those tribal sovereign
ties will be obliterated with a scratch

known how soon the commission will
resume its labors It's mem bers will
be increased by two, and it is already
said that Secretary Frank Armstrong
and ex-senator Butler will be the APP

No Seed Distribution.

WASHINGTON, March S.-Secretary
Morton says there will be no distri-
button of seeds to drought sufferers
in Oklahoma, Kansas and other
states, although both houses adopted
an amendment to the sundry civil
bill appropriating $500, 900 for that
purpose. According to Secretary Nor
ton, Mr.. Cleveland notified the con-
ference committee that he would
veto the bill if this provision re-
NAMED in it, and it was therefore sur
reptitiously stricken out, thing
which the conferrees clearly had no

A PIOUS THIEF.
He Stole During a Period of
Ten Years.
Robbed a Missionary Society OF
Nineteen Thousand Dollars.
MAKES A CONFESSION
He Was Trusted Implicitly by
Everybody.

New YORK. March s.-George1 "
White, chairman of the finance COM
mittee of the American Church Mis-
sionary society has IN ade the follow
ing statement: 'sAt the January
finance committee. A month ago I
put an expert at work on the books.
There appeared to be several items
j n regard to General Secretary New
b ODDS accounts which required ex-
PLANTATION. At the end of few days
Mr.. Newbold, finding the temperature
of the Office getting too hot for him,
sent his keys to the finance commit
tee and announced that he had sew
cred his connection with the society.
1t was afterward found that Mr..
Newbold had retained a duplicate set
of keys, which I took from biIn.
''The result of the expert account
ants examination showed that Mr..
Newbold had overdrawu from the
society the sum of about $12, 900 over
and above all that was due him for
salary. Furthermore. the examine
tion shows that moneys received from
interest and other sources to the
amount of $1,000, he has failed to
credit on the books and the checks
for the same were not deposited in
the society's bank account.
MIR. Newbold has confessed these
defalcations to four different mem
bers of the society and we also have
a letter written by him confessing his
crime and pleading on the score of
past faithfulness for leniency and
claiming that he was obliged to use
the money to support large and ex-
pensive family. He lives in fine
place at Mont Clair, n. J., the value,
he says, he estimates at $40, 900. He
also keeps horses, carriages, cows,
etc.
''He was general secretary of the
socie ty for twenty-si years and was
always impli city trusted by the
mem bers. The expert accountant has
ascertained that certainly for the
past ten years, and for how much
more we do not know, Newbold has
been robbing the treasury of the So
ciety.''
Mr.. White said that this statement
was provoked by Newbold's attempt
to pose as a martyr. He would not
say what steps would be taken by the
society against Mr.. Newbold, nor
would he show the latter's written
confession.

mended in the bill were approved.

increase the appropriation for the
lunatic asylum at Fulton SIS, 500,
which was not agreed to. Fifty

The OMeara election bill came up
next as the special order. After a
