The Executive Session.

Washington, Jan. l5.-The senate
galleries were cleared and the the doors
closed Immediately after the session
opened today, on adoption of Sherman's
motion that the senate 60 into execu-
tive session.
Immediately after going into execu-
tive session the senate took up the mo-
tion of Senator Sherman, made at the
request OF Secretary 0lney, to recon
slider the vote by which the extradition
treaties between this country and Ar
gentina and the Orange Free State
were amended. The motion was de-
bated at considerable length.
The principal point in contention is
the authority given foreign governments
to take by force from this country per-
sons who have escaped to this country
and are charged with certain offenses.
This was stricken out. Secretary Olney
asks that it be retained.
Senator Davis, member of the COM
mittee on foreign relations, made q
strong argument against the principle
that Secretary Olney desired to have
retained. The discussion took wide
range and covered general features and
precedents OF extradition.

Grout Bill in the House.

Washington, Jan. 16.-The house
spent almost the entire day debating
the Grout bill, which was under con
sideration for a time yesterday, to sub
ject oleomargarine and other imitation
dairy products to the laws of the states
into which they are transported. The
advocates of the measure took the view
that the states should be allowed to
regulate the sale of a product sailing
under false colors, and the opponents
argued that the bill would establish
a dangerous precedent and invade the
power of congress to regulate interstate
commerce. Those who supported the
measure were Messrs. Northway,
Morse, Lacey, llainer, Willis, Grosve-
nor and Henderson. Those who op-
posed it were Messrs. Cooper, Tucker,
Cannon, Boatner, Glardy and Williams
The bill is as follows:
THAT all articles known as oleomar-
garine, butterine, imitation butter or
imitation cheese, or any substance in
the semblance Of butter or cheese,
not the usual product of the dairy, and
not made exclusively Of pure and un-
I adulterated milk or cream, transported
into any state or territory, or remain
ing therein for use, consumption, sale
or storage, shall, upon arrival in such
state or territory, be subject to the
operation and effect Of the laws of such
state or territory, enacted in the exer-
else Of its police powers, to the same
extent and In the same manner as those
articles or substances that had been
produced in such state or territory, and
shall not be exempt therefrom by rea-
son of being introduced there in origin
al packages or otherwise, provided thai
nothing in this act shall be construed
so as to permit any state to forbid th'
sale of oleomargarine except in sucl
manner as will advise customer of it
real character.
Elmore bulletin. [volume] (Rocky Bar, Idaho) 1889-1906, 1897-01-20

Washington, Jan. l5-After very
dull day, devoted to passing bills of
minor importance, the house plunged
into warm controversy over a bill to
make oleomargarine and other imita-
tions OF dairy products subject to the
laws of states into which they are trans
ported. The author of the bill, Grout
OF Vermont, led the fight for it, and it
was opposed by Democrats and Repub-
lcans, chiefly on the ground that it
would give the states power to prohibit
the use of such products.
The house got into parliamentary
struggle over the measure on account
of the determination of Cameron to
secure some time for its consideration,
and adjourned, leaving it unfinished.
One of the senate bills passed was 10
withdraw from the supreme court GRIM
inal cases, other than capital, and leave
jurisdiction over them to the courts OF
appeal.

Policy Toward Cuba.

Pittsburg, Jan. lS.-The Dispatch
says: The Cuban policy of the McKin-
ley administration will differ very lit
tie from that which has been laid down
by President Cleveland and his secre-
tary of state. This statement is based
on remarks made to reporter by the
man who will be premier Of the next
administration, Senator sherman, at
the union depot this evening.
The veteran statesman was on his
way to Washington from Canton. Al
ter stating that his position in the next
cabinet had been determined, Senator
Sherman said in answer to question;
q think the United States govern
ment should not interfere with the
Cuban war, either to aid in its settle
ment or to do anything which would
make n peaceful government OF the
island a charge upon this country. !
think Canovas has outlined program
of governmental reforms, which will
be applied both in Spain and Cuba.
These reforms will give the Cubans
practical autonomy, and will, | hope,
settle the question !"

LAND Fer EVERYBODY.
The Free Homestead Bin Has Passed
the Senate.

Washington, Jan. 16.--The senate
today passed the measure known as
the free homestead bill, which has been
under discussion since the holiday re-
cess. 1t is measure of far-reaching
importance, particularly TO the West
ern states, and the interest in it was
shown by the fact that a plank concern
ing it was feature of the several ma
tional platforms. The effect of the
bill is TO open to settlement all the
public lands acquired from Indians,
free of payment to the government, be-
yond the minor Office fees, and to re-
lease from payment those who have
heretofore settled on those lands. The
number of acres involved, according to
an estimate made by the commissioner
of the general land office, is 33, 207, Sal,
which would have yielded the govern
ment, at the prices heretofore estab-
hshed, $50, 343, 006. To offset this
statement it was brought out during
the debate that the lands were mainly
arid and that those who had settled
upon them were unable to make pay
ment by reason of the scanty products
of the soil The Western senators in
the main favored the bill as an exten-
sion of the general homestead policy of
the government. The opposition was
directed mainly by Platt of Connecticut
and Villas. As the bin passed in the
house it covered only lands acquired
from Indians in Oklahoma but as
passed today the bill includes all In
dian lands. The final vote taken by
agreement at p. NJ, showed decisive
majority in favor of the measure.
Following the disposition of this bill
which had held the advantageous posi-
tion of the unfinished business of the
senate, Morgan sought to have the Mica
rauga canal bill made the untinishe,
business. This preciptated a vot
which to some extent was a test o
strength of the bill itself. On Nor
gan's motion to take up the bill, tn
vote was 33 to 6, or less than quorum
SO the motion did not prevail, although
it disclosed the strength of the measure
During the day Morgan secured til
adoption of resolution for an inquir
by the judiciary committee us T.
whether the properties of the Uniol
Pacific and Central Pacific companie
now belong to the United States, b,
reason of alleged defaults in paymen
of bonds.
A resolution by Cullom, calling OF
the civil service commission to explain
the delay in making annual reports
was adopted.

The Penalty for Popularity.

Madrid, Jan. l5.-The Marquis OF
Gabriana, who became a popular hero
by bringing charges of corruption
against municipal officers, and who
was at one time attacked by roughs in
Madrid, as an outcome of those charges
has been sentenced for two months in
prison for libel The public prosecutor
asked that he should be sentenced to
two years in prison. Sensational evi-
dence was developed at the trial. The
conde Of San Bernardino testified that
he had refused the mayorality of Mad
rid owing to the fact that an examina-
tion of the facts showed that there had
been gross dishonesty in connection
with the Columbus fetes.

THE CASE OF FRANCIS
Senate Wrangling Over Ap-

VEST AND PUGH IN OPPOSITION.
Discussion of the Proposed Dairy
Products Bill.

Washington, Jan. 15.--The senate in
executive session today had up for
time the nomination of David r. Fran
els to be secretary of the interior, but
no action was taken.
Senators Vest and Pugh made
speeches against the confirmation,
and alleged various reasons, one being
the conduct of Secretary Francis dur
ing the campaign. Vest referred to
the letter Francis wrote, supporting
the Indianapolis ticket and opposing
the regular Democratic ticket SEN
ator White said that, while he did not
approve of the course OF Secretary
Francis during the campaign, he would
vote for his confirmation. Both Demdz
cratic and Republican silver senators
stated they would vote for the confir-
nation, and that it was foregone con-
clusion when the vote is taken the sec
retary will be confirmed.

VIII Not Surrender.

Washington, Jan. 18.-Mr. Quesada,
of the Cuban junta, today received a
long letter from his uncle, Salvador de
Cisneros, president of the Cuban repub-
lie, who, by inference, gives a denial
to the reports that the insurgents are
willing to negotiate terms of peace on
any other basis than absolute inde-
pendence. The letter says, in part:
1--WE will renew our offensive cam
paign in a few days. Gomez has left
me to enter Santa Clara with reinforce
ments and munitions Of war. lie will
go further west. Our situation is most
prosperous, and if we had plenty of
ammunition, not only for rifles, but for
cannon, and in Camaguey dynamite
cannon, the railroads would be de-
stroyed and the few garrisoned inland
towns would be abandoned by the
enemy, and they would be confined to
the coast. As | expect to receive these
war materials from abroad, we very
soon will drive them to the sea and be
in position to tell them, when they
depart, our last goodbye.

The senator had but few moments be-
fore left the presence OF the president
elect. Concerning other matters con
nected with the incoming administra-
ton, the senator was very reticent.
Asked as to whether Mr.. Hanna would
be appointed senator, he replied that
he did not know. Senator sherman
was in the city little more than
three hours, and all the while was at
the Mckinley home, where he took
lunch with other prominent callers.

Menominee, Mich, Jan. 18.-To
night nine men are clinging to block
OF ice few rods square that is being
driven out of Green bay into Lake
Michigan by fierce southerly gale.
The wind is blowing thirty miles an
hour, and carries a zero temperature,
and an occasional snow squall. The
men are fishermen, clad only in the
none too heavy clothing worn while
tending their nets, and unless the ice
foe has been blown against Chambers
island or Green island, there is little
probability they will live through the
night The doomed men are residents
of the little fishing village of Menekau-
nee, and their wives and children and
neighbors are spending the night on
the mountains of ice that fringe the
beach weeping.
