Washington, Jan. 12.-The open ses-
sion of the senate was very brief to-
day. The only business was the adop-
tion of a resolution presented by Mr..
Chandler, asking the secretary OF the
navy to furnish the senate list of the
active officers of the navy in each corps
together with those who are at sea and
those who are on shore duty, and
those who are on waiting orders.
IN THE HOUSE.
The house today passed an urgent
deficiency bill carrying s1,574,s43. one
Of the items authorizing a further ex-
penditure of $4,000 for the soldiers
home at Danville H., for which $780,
900 was appropriated in the last sun
dry civil bill was used by Mr.. Dear
mond (Dem., MOI as a basis for a bit
ter personal attack upon Chairman
Cannon, whose home is at Danvile.
He charged the chairman of the APP
preparation committee with having
used his powers and position to secure
the location of the home at Danville.
Mr.. Cannon in reply branded Mr.. De-
Almond as a common scold who would
have been ducked under the town
pump had he lived in the old days. He
said he would stand or fall on his rec
ord. The house by a vote of 1913 to "a,
sustained the appropriation.
There was also a lively debate over
the provision in the bill requiring the
owners Of bullion hereafter to pay the
cost of transporting bullion from assay
offices to the mints. The western
members and the free silver advocates
generally took the position that this
change of policy on the part of the
government (Which now pays these
charges) would discourage gold produc-
tion. appreciate its values, and might
result in driving the gold to foreign
mints. The Republicans and some of
the Democrats, including Mr.. Sayres,
of Texas denied that it would have
any such effect and meant simply the
repeal of a bounty granted to miners
since 1879. The motion to strike out
the proviso was defeated, 10 to 125.
Messrs. Henderson (Rep., Ia.O and
w. A. Stone (Rep., Pa.) spoke briefly
of the testimony showing the necessity
for new soldiers home in the Missis-
sippi valley. and the propriety of locat-
| ing it at DanVille.
When the item appropriating $4,000
for the repair of dry dock No. 8 at
New York was reached, Mr.. Bennett
| (Rep, N. Y.,) said it had been his in
| tention to oppose any further appro-
| pration for this dock, but he had been
assured by the secretary of the navy
| that a thorough investigation would be
| made, and on this condition he had
withdrawn his opposition.
Mr. Cannon also said that the secre-
| tary of the navy would order a court
martial to probe this scandal. The
appropriations committee, he said rec
commended $4,000 because Naval Con-
structor Bowles believed the dock could
| be completed with that sum. Without
further amendment the bill was passed

 Martin Bedding, diver, returned here today. He was taken to Havana to work on the wreck and his arrival today caused much comment, it being stated that he had talked too much at Havana and had been removed in con- sequence.

THE SANTA FEE, PRESCOTT 6
 PHOENIX RAILROAD.

The building of this road has done more for the development of central Arizona than any other incident, prob ably more than all other incidents combined. It has been in success full operation about three years. It's construction along the northern part of it is regarded as one of the most difficult feats ever attempted in the west, and it is now one of the best equipped roads in the west. The northern terminus is Ash Fork, the southern, Phoenix. It traverses the richest mineral region of the territory which is now in process of rapid de- velopment. The same energy which characterized the building of it has ever since marked it's operation. The president and general manager is F. M. Murphy of Prescott, Assistant Gen. eral Manager R. B. Wells of Prescott, General Freight and Passenger Agent George M. Sargent of Prescott, Train master A. s. Greig of Prescott, Chief Engineer w. A.

ORDERED IN COMMISSION.
Excitement at the League Island Navy
 Yard.

Philadelphia, Feb. 27.-The League Island navy yard was literally swarmed with visitors today in consequence of a report from Washington that the cruisers Columbia and Minneapolis, the double turreted monitor Mianto- nomah, and the ram Katahdin had been ordered to go into commission with dispatches Both cruisers have skeleton crews aboard, while the mon- itor has been lying at the dock sev- eral years, and the Katahdin since last winter.
 None of the naval officials at the yard would say anything relating to the future movements of the vessels, but from the workmen it was learned that commission orders had been is sued. This was borne out by the fact that all day large force of men in the construction and repair depart ments were actively at work on the Miantonomah and Katahdin. Visit ors were kept off these boats and only those having friends among officers and the crews of the cruisers were al- lowed on board.
