The senate Friday.

the senate today joint resolu-
ton providing for survey and to de-
termine the practicability of opening
a navigable channel through the south
west pass of the Mississippi river was
passed Mr.. Allen introduced res
olution directing the committee on for
eign relations TO inquire whether OF
not the yacht Buccaneer, owned by
William r. Hearst, has been seized
and is being held by the Spanish gov
eminent. The resolution was agreed
to. The Indian appropriation bill
was then taken up and the following
amendment was adopted without dis
cussion. 1t is as follows:
'That all settlers under the home
stead laws of the United States upon
1.-The pubic lands acquired prior to the
passage of this act by treaty or agree
ment from the various Indian tribes,
who have or who shall hereafter reside
upon the tract entered in good faith
for the period required by. existing
law, shall be entitled to patent for
the land so entered upon the payment
to the local land officers of the usual
and customary fees and no other or
further charge of any kind whatsoever
shall be required from such settler to
entitle him to patent for the land
covered by his entry, provided. that
the right to commute such entry and
pay for said lands, in the option of any
settler and in the time and at the
prices now fixed by existing laws, shall
remain in full force and effect: pro-
vided, however, that all sums OF money
so released, which, if not released,
would belong to any Indian tribe,
shall be paid TO such Indian tribe by
the I'm ted States.

carries an appropriation of nearly 49,

The House-Thursday.

The house was in very bad temper
today and the whole session was con-
sumed in filibustering against two bills
of minor importance. Neither got
further than the engrossment and
third reading The trouble arose
over the enforcement of the rule
against the discussion Of irrelevant
subjects when Mr.. Handy, democrat,
of Delaware, attempted to reply on the
floor during the consideration of those
bills to letter recently written by
Mr. Thomas F. Bayard, secretary OF
state under the Cleve aud administra
ton, in denunciation Of the free silver
democracy. Roll call followed roll
call all day long and partisan feeling
reached high pitch. Finally when
1t BECAME evident no progress could
be made with the bills pre- -ented, an
ADJOURNMENT was taken until Monday.
The Senate.
General William Booth, of England,
founder of the Salvation army, offici-
ated as chaplain at the opening today
of the senate's session Ma. Frye
reported fayorably from the committee
on commerce bill to amend the laws
relating to navigation. He said that
as the.proposed bill related only to
Alaskan waters, it was necessary that
prompt action should be taken. The
bill was passed without division.
The Indian appropriation bill was
then considered. Considerable dis
cussion arose over an amendment pro-
posed by the committee, providing
that hereafter no Indian, or tribe OF
Indians, shall lease for mining pur-
poses lands that are not patented to
said Indians" 1t was agreed to. In
the course of discussion of an amend
ment offered by Mr.. Thurston, Mr..
Allen, of Nebraska, made a sharp at
tack upon the speaker of the house of
representatives. He declared that it
was impossible to secure the passage
through. the house of any mefitorious
measures because one man stood at
the entrance of the caverns into which
proposed legislation was dumped and
would permit nothing to be done about
that of which he did not approve. He
said that sin the other end of the
capitol this one man stands for 1928,
and his bold, unwarranted, undignified
action was disgrace to the congress
and to the American people" The
house then adjourned.

In anticipation of speeches to be de.
