FULL OF COURAGE
The Raeifs Railroad Libby Want to Have
svata
The situation Believed to BE Favor.
and Action WIN Soon be Had.

Friends Of the Pacific railroad say pri-
vately that they are sure Of getting time
for the consider alton Of the funding bill in
the House this session. The belief is grow
ing that, In spite Of the great anxiety to
secure an early adjournment. a concession
may be made to Mr.. Huntington's friends.
and the bill agreed upon late yesterday
afternoon, which extends the time for the
settlement Of the debt Indefinitely. possibly
ninety years. will be voted on before the
session closes. The bill was framed after
consultation between the Senate and the
House committees. The belief is that there
is an understanding by which the friends
Of the measure hope to rush 1t through
both Houses.
The representatives Of Mr.. Huntington
have been numerous and active about the
Hobbies of Congress since the session begun.
This must necessarily be. very expensive
to the railroad interests, and they natural
ly do not want 1t protracted into another
session. During the many years that
this question of refunding has been before
Congress there has probably never been a
larger or more active lobby in the interest
of the railroads.
From the first it has been recognized that
a majority Of the committee was amiably
and 1t IL not altogether certain that ma
jority Of the House is not Of the same
mind. Doubt IL expressed as to how vote
in the House might result, but. apparently.
the railroad people have confidence enough
to want a vote as soon as possible.
The opposition however, Is Of a deter
mined kind. and, If the rules of the House
do not permit protracted fight, in the Sen
!, ate. at least. they are likely to prolong the
struggle to the utmost limit. The illness Of
Senator Morgan. who Is probably the best
informed Of the opponents to the extension.
greatly cripples the anti-extension side.

RUSSELL AND OLNEY.
Both Are Working for the Massachu-
sets Democratic Enforcement.

Both Are Working for the Massachu-
setts Democratic Enforcement.
Ex-Governor Russell Of Massachusetts
passed through Washington today on his
return from the home Of Jefferson, where
the democrats quarreled over the honored
statesman's grave. Following in the young
governors trail are the faint rumblings of
contest between him and Olney for the in
dorsement Of the Massachusetts conven-
ton for the democratic presidential NOM
ination. Josiah Quincy, John w. Corcoran,
John f. Russell and J. H. O'Neill the four
great democratic managers of Massachu-
sets. are working up the Olney boom, and
have been expecting that 1t would be
launched at the Massachusetts, convention.
1t turns out now that ex-Gov. Russell
with the assistance of Chas. H. Taylor the
wealthy proprietor Of the Boston Globs, has
been working for himself in an effective
way. The Massachusetts, people here say
that during his five campaigns and three
terms as governor Russell has offended
most Of the big democratic politicians in
nearly every man In Massachusetts,, and
has got wonderful hold upon the masses
Of his party.
The result Is, they say. that while the
political slate leaders have been planning
to make Olney- the favorite son of New
England. Russell has been getting control
of the districts. and will probably control
the state convention. They say moreover,
that Russell has his friends at work in
other states. conspicuoLsly in New York
and Virginia.

NATIONAL DEFENsEs.
senator Squire ON the Unprotected
SeacOast Cities.

senator Squire ON the Unprotected
SeacOast Cities.
National Defenses'' was the subject Of
Senator Squirrels speech in; the Senate to-
day. and. as a preliminary to q more de-
tailed discussion of the subject. the Sena-
tor said:
I'VE are for peace Are we for peace at
any price? We are for independence. Are
we for independence without taking steps
to maintain that independence? We are
for progress and advancement of the inter-
ests not only Of our own people, but of all
mankind. We are full of sympathy for the
oppressed and downtrodden in every part of
the civilized world. We are for the Monroe
doctrine: for the preservation of the soil
inviolate from European aggression on both
the American continents.
Are we willing to support our belief In
the Monroe doctrine by something more
than empty declarations, which are as
Again. we are for economy in expenditures.
Are We for that false economy that makes
no proper thought Of tomorrow and makes
no provision against the greatest possible
risks to our safety, dignity and peace as
nation?"
The people, he laid. did not know how
shamefully their interests are being banded
and played with by those who represent
them in the halls of Congress They sup
posed. in the simplicity of their hearts. the
Senator said, that we are prepared to pro-
ftect ourselves In case Of war with any of
the secoad or third-class powers, or even
against a first-class power.
They Know that the nation has millions
of brave and patriotic men, who would
gather at the cssl to arms. But they do not
know that there iS no means Of arming
these hosts upon thu emergency that may
arise. They do not kn6Y that the great sea-
coast cities, teeming With wealth, are ex-
posed and defanseless against attack by
foreign navies. with vessels<ar outnumber-
ing ours In strength. They NO not know
that our navy itself may be hopelessly Grip
pied by the destruction of our hpdefen1ed
navy yards. depots of supplies. doak yards,
powder mills and arsenals
IF the people understood these facts as
they exist they would say Stop buffding
ships-as you do not mean to protect bur
cities, dockyards and bases of supplies, 1t
is folly to spend so much money upon the
navy. If they knew the hollowness of our
talk the people would cry out for shame at
this travesty upon the maintenance Of the
Monroe doctrine and the Intervention for
Cuban independence"
In closing the Senator expressed the hope
that the bill providing for the expenditure
of $SO.OOO.OOO for sea coast defenses would
be adopted without serious modification.

POST OFFICE
PLANS
Secretary Carlsla Repeats His Request fol
Moro Money.
The Plans to He Changed and the
Cost to De Increased by the
SUM of $A7O,OOO.

Yesterday afternoon. just before adjourn
ment. the Vice President laid before the
Senate a letter from Secretary Carlisle,
again asking for larger appropriations for
the construction Of the city post office
building, and for an increase in the fixed
cost to which he is limited. In his letter
the Secretary says:
Under date of February Is, 1906, this de-
partment addressed a communication to the
Speaker Of the House of Representatives in
connection with the United States post Office
building being erected in this city. in which
II was stated that deficiency appropria-
ton OF $355OO0 was imperatively needed to
complete the building as at present designed,
and that, deficiency appropriation of $115.-
O00 additional to the above, making a total
OF $47O,OOO, would be required for the COM
pletion Of the building, If. besides complet-
ing the same as at present designed, an in
dependent light and power plant were to
be supplied therein. and If the plan of the
six upper stories were to be changed from
the present design to a modified design
which would make available Office rooms
for the railway mail service, the bureau OF
statistics. the department of labor, the
offices OF education, Indian affairs. geologi-
cal survey. the United States civil service
commission, the bureau Of ethnology, and
Occupying rented quarters in THIS city, and
In the same letter this department requested
that the total amount of Sf7O,OOO be appro-
priated for the purpose named above
In the. annual estimates for appropria-
lions for public buildings submitted to Con-
gress by this department there was included
an item Of $S75.OOO, this being the balance
to be appropriated under the present limit
Tor the continuation Of the building during
the fiscal year ending June 80 1897
AT the request Of the chairman Of the
Rouse committee on appropriations this
department ascerrained that for the con tin
uation of work on the building until March
8 1877, this latter estimate could be re-
duced to E70.OOO. with the result that the
latter amount was reported by the said
committee In the sundry civil bill, and the
appropriation made by the House of Rep
resentatives, but no increase of limit of
cost was included.
Although the Secretary Of the Treasury
has the right to contract in advance of ap-
propriations made available for this build
fng.h cannot exceed the limit Of cost fixed,
and 1t ID Imperative to the successful COM
pletton OF the building that the limit be ex-
tended at this session of Congress, in order
that this department may be able to make
the contracts necessary to prosecute the
work uninterruptedly.
Il therefore have the honor to repeat to
the Senate my recommendation made to the
House Of Representatives. as above stated,
or In case this ia not approved, that the
limit of cost of this building be increa sed
by the sum Of $4,000 which amount, how
ever, need not necessarily be appropriated
at this session Of Congress-"

Some Facts About Cincinnati.

in charge Of the sewer departr ent, has

of the proceedings Of the second convention
of the American Society of Municipal I'm

Upon all house services. II the distance
from the water main to the house is con-

residence portions Of the city on the hills,
lead pipe Is required to a meter situated
upon the house lot. beyond which point
wrought iron is permitted. The city fur

water consumer at an advance Of to 3
per cent over cost. The Worthington, Her

Cincinnati has done a great deal of
street paving In recent years. nearly all Of
