The WorId,s reIegraph Lines.

The actual length of the telegraph
lines Of the world is 100000 kilome-
ters-not including nearly 100000 kilo-
meters of submarine cable. This total
is divided as follows: America, 1885,
600 kilometers; Europe, 2,840,0O0; Asia,
100000; Australia, $4,000; Africa, 160.-
600. The entire length of all these
wires joined together would permit of
the establishment of twenty lines Of
telegraph between the earth and the
moon.

PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS
DISCUSS THE NATIONS AFFAIRS
Leaders i'm Both Branches of the Ma
tionaI Legislature Consume Time
in Talk as Well as Transact Some
Public Business-What Has Been
Done.

After a debate, animated at all times
and occasionally acrimonious, which oc-
cupied the greater part of the week, the
senate Friday evening, by a decisive vote
of Al to 30, passed the Teller concurrent
resolution. The resolution is a practical
reaffirmation of that of Stanley Matth-
ews in 1878 and is as follows:
THAT all the bonds of the United States
issued or authorized TO be issued, under
the said acts of congress hereinbefore re-
cited, are payable, principal and interest,
at the option of the government of the
United States in silver dollars of the
coinage of the United States containing
4l24 grains of standard silver, and that
to restore to its coinage such silver coins
as legal tender in payment of said bonds,
principal and interest, is not in violation
of public faith nor in derogation of the
right of the public creditor"
All efforts to amend the resolution were
voted down by majorities ranging from
5 to 20. Senator Lodges gold standard
substitute being defeated by the latter
majority. The vote on the Lodge amend
ment was, ayes "a, noes SO.
The house passed the bill to reimburse
the book publishing company of the
Methodist Episcopal church for S2Ss,0O0
damages sustained during the war.
House on Teller Resolution.
The house Monday buried the Teller
resolution, declaring the bonds of the
United States payable in silver under an
adverse majority of so votes The repub-
licans were solidly arrayed in opposition
with two exceptions-Mr. Linney of
North Carolina, who voted with the dem
ocrats and populists, and Mr.. White. of
North Carolina, the only colored member
of the house, who answered present
when his name was called. The assertions
from the democratic side were Mr. Me
Aleer of Pennsylvania and Mr.. Elliott of
South Carolina. Both voted with the re-
publicans against the proposition. Speak
er Reed, although it is not customary for
him to vote, had his name called, and
amid the cheers of his followers, went on
record in opposition to the resolution.
In the senate two of the general appro-
priation bills-that of the army, carrying
S23, 243 ,492, and the legislative, executive
and judiciary departments, carrying $2l,-
COS, 520-were passed, the latter consist
ing of l2l pages and occupying the atten-
ton of the senate during the greater part
of the session. John MclIaurin was sworn
i'll as senator from South Carolina to fiji
the uneXpired term of the late Senator
Earle, ending 1908.

The civil Service.

The military academy appropriation
bill was reported to the house Tuesday.
The anti-civil service reformers won a
slight victory when Mr.. Perkins of Iowa
presented a resolution for printing the
hearings before the civil service commits
sion. Mr.. Grosvenor antagonized the res
olution. He said the hearings had taken
an eX-parte turn and he desired to submit
some facts in REPUTATION of certain state
ments before the hearings We're printed.
A bill was passed Authorizing the secre-
tary of the treasury to build or purchase
suitable vessel for revenue cutter serv-
ice ON the Yukon river to cost not ex-
ceeding $4,000. At 4 p. IN. the debate
drifted into politics. Mr.. Simpson of Kan
sas attempted to show from clippings
from Maine papers that there had been
no return of prosperity in the lumber in
dustry in that state. He also attacked
New Jersey as the home of the trust. Mr..
Dingley in reply declared that the Maine
