APPROPRIATION OF 100000 is
UNDISTURBED.
Attempt to Cut Down the Funds to
Start the Army Post Was
Headed Off.

Washington, May 19-Just when every
thing seemed smooth sailing for the Spo-
kane army post appropriation Senator
Wilson and Representative Hyde learned
that the conference committee on the
sundry civil bill had knocked OF $2oOoO
and was preparing to report an agreement.
Both Wilson and Hyde fastened to their
respective cOnfereeS, and it is SAID lnat
there was some OF the strongest KIND OF
kicking at TINS sort of snap judgment.
Those who know the men can but appre-
ciate what they would say under such cir
cumstanceS. The result was a direct prom
Use that the enJlre amount of 500 ,OOO should
remain untouched.
The report on the sundry civil Dill
was presented today. The senate receded
from amendments for light VeSSeI az
Overfall shoal, New Jersey; for RELIEF OF
light vessel for the Atlantic coast, and for
revenue cutters on the Gulf of Mexico ana
Atlantic and Pacific coasts. These items
accordingly go out of the bill. Inc mouse
acceded to the following amendments
made by the senate: To allow officers and
others of the revenue cutter service to
make allotments from their pay; for a
light vessel at Fire island and San Fran
cisco harbor; for tenders for the second,
seventh and eighth lighthouse districts;
fixing the total for payment or United
States marshals and deputies at $l,O00O0o
for United States district attorneys, $275,-
600. The important items on which dis

NOmi alton.

Washington, May lS.-The confirmation

terminates a contest that has been in
progress for two or three years. Joplin

of the present administration to succeed
Emily T. Helen, who was sister of Mrs.
Abraham Lincoln. Mrs. Helen's friends
antagonized the conirmation and have
been able to prevent 1t up to the present
time. The confirmation was made with
out objection.

sECTARIAN MATTER CROPPED OUT
Senate Allowed Charity ApprOpria-
tiOns as Before.

Washington, May 19.-The senate today
passed the District of Columbia appropria-
ton bill, carrying approximately $7,SOO,ooo
A debate on the question of appropriations
for sectarian purposes cropped out on the
paragraph making appropriations for
charities in the district. On vote the
senate sustained the committee in pro-
viding specific appropriations for numer-
Gus private charitable institutions, some
of them of a sectarian character. A fur
Their provision was adopted for an investi-
cation into the charity system of the dis
trict with view to ascertain what IL any
OF the public appropriations are used for
church purposes.
Shortly after the reading Of the bill be-
gan q terrific rainstorm broke over the
capitol. The senators were first startled
by q report like the discharge Of a heavy
gun on the roof. Then torrents of rain.
swept across the roof, forcing a way
through the glass ceiling until the chamber
was filled with thick mist and large
drops fell on the desks of the senators.
Senator Plat opposed the committee
change. He said the best sentiment OF
the country upheld the view that the gov
eminent, state or national. ought not to
appropriate money to private charities,
whether sectarian or not.
Senator PETER also opposed the commit
tee change, saying that the senate should
adopt heroic treatment In dealing with the
question.
Senator Teller said, while in favor of
government conduct of government insti-
tutions, yet it was felt the government
charities were not yet adequate in the
District of Columbia to permit an imme-
diate abandonment of the old system.
Senator Gallinger added a protest
against the committee change.
Senator Sherman expressed his belief in
the general principles Of restricting aid to
government institutions, yet, he said. the
present private system Of charity in the
district should not be struck down until a
government service was provided for sick
and needy.
Senators German and Cockrell support
ed the committee amendment, and Senator
George opposed 1t.
Senator Allison, chairman Of the appro-
priation committee, said the amendments
were designed to make the largest posi-
BILE use Of the limited government charities
in Washington without Gripping many
worthy private charities.
The committee amendment giving stated
sums to numerous private charities was

crease.
Mr.. Bartholdt challenged this statement,
contending that the natural increase was
l.00000 year, while the immigration had
averaged only about 250,O00 a year.
Mr.. Stone said that during the hard
times Of the last three years immigration
had fallen Off. but with the prospect Of re-
turning prosperity and high wages it
would increase to startling proportions.
Mr.. Corliss of Michigan submitted an
argument in favor Of his bill for the ex-
clusion of foreigners who crossed our
frontiers each year to compete with
American labor. He read the testimony
of inspection agents and others along the
Canadian border as to the evil effects of
the annual influx Of the Canadian birds
of passage
Mr.. Morse of Massachusetts, favored the
Mccall bill. He said that there was a
strong demand in the country for radical
legislation to restrict immigration, and
that congress could not afford to disrc-
gard It.
Mr.. Buck of Louisiana, naturalized
German. opposed restriction of immigra-
ton in eloquent language. An educa-
tional test was, he insisted, valueless as
a measure of a mans capacities

Atlanta, Ca, May 1.-THE most serious

The New Road.

Locating Engineer F. E. Baxter of
the Rio Grande Western was in Heber
Wednesday looking over the proposed
site for depot grounds offered the new
road. He is head man at the camp of
the surveyors now located near the
North Fork in Provo canyon. and had
orders from General Palmer, president
of the Rio Grande Western. to be pre-
pared to make a report concerning To-
cations on the proposed line through
this valley to Park City, upon his ar
rival in Salt Lake City from the coast
this week. The general will be met in
Zion by First Vice President George
f. Peabody from the east, and it is
thought the two head officials of the
Western will likely take trip over the
proposed new route. Mr.. Baxter in
formed us also that the preliminary
line of survey will be completed to the
river bridge below Charleston this week
and that they would finish the line to
Heber in about two weeks more He
had no idea that the line would be per-
manently located on the other side of
the river, but that Heber would most
certainly be the main point in the coun-
ty. He is much taken up with this val
ley and the people with whom he has
come in contact, and while no author
ity TO say so prompted him. he was of
the OPINION that the road will be built
as soon as i can be reasonably got at

Scattered the sheen.

j. H. Adams came in from his sheep
herd, over beyond Three Creeks. in the
vicinity of Black Rock, last Monday
evening. He says that he has sustain
ed quite heavy losses since taking to
the mountains with his flock. The
weather UP there has been very severe,
and the sheep being thin, many have
persisted with the cold. The storm that
he encountered in going over scattered
his herd so that now he has sheep in
almost every flock on the mountain,
and viii necessarily lose many in this
way. He says that the weather is so
cold up in that region that the grass
has not yet started to grow, and that
he looks for more losses before grazing
is good enough to improve the condi-
ton of the sheep. Mr. Adams will re-
main in the city looking after his wool
and other interests for a few days,
when he will return to the herd.-Iron
