ARMY
[ContInued from first page. !

1t was whispered IN naval circles to.
day that Schley had told the navy de
partment he was going TO give battle
to CerYera Immediately. To do this
he would have to sail through a mar
row entrtnce, taking the risk of de-
struction by .torpedoes and guns Of
the Qualifications. This. statement
was also attributed to the president,
and apparently there is something Ia
the story.
At any rate there is a feeling among
those connected with the naval ad-
minstration that big news will come
from Santiago very soon. Secretary
Long. however, is the authority for
the statement that Schley .will not
make any offensive movement for the
present.
Little remains for the administra.
tion to do until the army begins tC
carry out its program. Schley will
remain off Santiago until troops are
landed. A fear that Cervera may
escape on stormy night, may how
ever, induce the administration to
direct Schley to proceed against the
enemy without regard to the mill
ltary.

War Revenue Bill.

WAsHIN GToN. May 3l.-The senate
committeeon on finance was in session
considering amendments which have
been suggested to the war revenue
bill. The time was spent largely in
an exchange Of views upon the policy
of accepting amendments which are
not germane to the bill, the result be-
ing a determination to accept none
such, Of whaeYer character.
The talk was directed especially to-
warI the amendments Of Lodge
fer the aELexation of Hawaii, ahd of
Morgan, providing for Of form gov
ernment for acquired, territory, and
there was Ga general expression of
opinion that they would not be ac-
cepted by the committee, and. further
more, that if necessary, they should
be met with amendments to the bill
This was also made applicable to other
like amendments, such as that offered
by PettIgrew for the abrogation of
the Hawaiian reciprocity treaty.
There was no dissenting view from
this policy. Senators fayorable to
the amendments agreed with those
who were not, thaC with the door once
open to changes not pertinent to the
main subject of the bill, the end
would indefinitely be postponed.
The committee also discussed to
some extent amendments suggesting
changes in the method Of taxing
transactions Of stock and grain ex-
changes and insurance brokers, but
decided to leave the PROVISIONS relat-
ing TO these subjects as they now
stand. The only two changes of i'm
portance decided upon relates to drugs
and to receipts.
There was also virtual understand.

..Lll be adopted by the senate, there
wLu.i be still further changes in the
stamp tax, as in that event it, will
not be necessary to collect so large a
sum on stamps, The committee is

AS to the Iibelous insinuations and
aff1davits in the Salem Statesman OF

any foundation in truth OF fact, and

middle of the road candidate for
governor is campaigning in Southern
Oregon for Geer and has been working
for the Republican ticket in Eastern

The county clerk of Marion county
has been forced by the Republican
bosses and under the advice of Blng-
ham and Carson to tangle up the
ticket as much as possible and con-
fuse the voters. He has thus been
made to reverse the order OF the
Union state ticket. He has put the
Peoples party last when it was certl.
fed under the seal of the state, by
the secretary CT state, to be tirst-its
wonder he put it on at all. He has
thus made the state ticket different
from what it is in any other county
in the state in the hopes Of deluding
the voters. He has put the congress
man-who is only a candidate for a
district or part of the state-ahead OF
the governor and otherwise "doctored"

THE COMMITTEE STATEMENT.
We the undersigned have investi-
gated the insinuated charges made
against Hon. n. l. Barkley in the
Daily Statesman of May %, 1898, and
the Oregon City Enterprise of May 81,
1898, and we are fully satisfied that
they are utterly false and unfounded
and that the same haYe been made for
political purposes.
In tue course Of our Investigation n
we have found that Rev. r. Gwyrn
has made conflicting and Yacillating
statements In which, In our opinion,
he showed mental weakness, and we
are of tue opinion that his statements
are entirely unreliable.
We also find that the fac simile let
ter published had no reference what
ever to the secreting Of Il. II. Mitch
ell or any other dishonorable transac.
tiOn.
From the published aii1davit U T.
Fl. Mitchell and other facts brought
before us during the Investigation We
are of the opinion that the state
ments of said Mitchell are not worthy
Of consideration.
We, therefore, have full confidence
10 the honor and integrity OF Hon. ii
IT, Barkley, and we are fully satisfied
bat he has not been connected with
any questionable or dishonorablt
transaction.
