SOME INCIDENTS OF THE DEBATE.
Berry Draws an Odious Comparison
Wants 10 DO Some Kicking

Berry Draws an OdiOus Cornparison-
Wants Ia Do Some Kicking.
During the debate there were several
interesting episodes. Berry of. Kentucky.
replying to remark by Clark of Mis-
souri, relative to the national immoral
dance of Hawaii and statesmen who
had seen it, said he had witnessed the
dance while in Hawaii, and more i'm
moral performances could be seen night
ly in Washington theatres.
Later when Rhea of Kentucky was
speaking upon the immortality Of the
Hawaiians, Berry interrupted to assert
vigorously. There is more immortality
in this city south of Pennsylvania ave-
nue. than in all Honolulu. Were l an
American representative" responded
Rhea, ard knew that to be true, /
would blush to say it,"
During a speech by Myers CT Louisiana
he was interrupted by Sulzer of New
York, who asserted the agent OF the
sugar trust was at the Capitol working
against annexation. by what author
ity do you say that?" queried Gaines
BY the newspaper now in your hand.
which says Mr.. Oxnard, representing
the trust, is here, and asserts these res
olutiors Will pass the house. but that
the senate will adjourn before they can
get through there
He ought to he kicked out Of town"
declared the Tennesseean.
That's right" replied the New
Yorker
And if he comes talking around me,
I'll kick him out" asserted the member
from Tennessee with rising indignation.
And l hope the gentleman will do So
said Sulzer. when the members laughed.
johnson of Indiana. was recognized
for speech in opposition. He laid down
| the three propositions that annexation
was unnecessary as a war measure in
the present conflict with Spain. that
annexation was unnecessary to prevent
the islands from falling into the hands
Of some other power to be used against
us, and that the proposition to annex
was inherently wrong, and was the
opening wedge upon an undesirable and
disastrous policy of colonization. He
also antagonized the claims Of military
! men as to the advantage Of holding
those islands.
Dolliver of IoIa, speaking in support
of the resolutions. complimented the
speech of the Indiana member. but sug-
ges I'd its success as an applause getter
would be greater than as a maker of
votes. II have always had difficulty in
putting my judgment against that of
the great statesmen Of the country.

poses. gift from +. j. Robinson. c..
H. Deere. Morris Rosenfield and Fred
Weverhauser, was read to the council
at its semi-monthly meeting last
night. The land is bounded
on the east by Seventeenth street and
on the south by Eighteenth avenue.
1t is given with the agreement that
the sale Of Intoxicating liquors shall
forever be prohibited within its Dor
ders. the donors also having the first
option on surplus dirt which the city
may remove while grading the prem
ises. The donors were given a unani-
nous rising vote of thanks bv the
councilmen for their generous gift.
The Rock Island & Peoria Railway
company's ordinance for an additional
main track west from Twentieth
street and the right to maintain all
tracks now in use by the company.
etc. is still up for consideration and
investigation. The only obstacle in
the way of its passage is the failure
to provide definitely for the moving
of the team track between Twelfth
and Fifteenth streets to insure a
uniform width to that portion of First
avenue. The ordinance reads
that the Peoria will move the
track i'll question providing the
Burlington consents to the moving
back of its rails a sufficient distance
to allow the change. The matter is
one that gives promise of satisfac-
tory adjustment.
Lawrence Kramer and George PAIL.
confirmed for patrolmen, are from the
Second and Sixth wards respectively.

j. F. Dindinger was the only one
who had a bid in for the printing of
the annual city reports.
City Attorney Marshall stated that
the assessment roll for the Twenty
sixth street Improvement had been
confirmed by the county court.
Aids. Bleuer. Maucker and Law
head believed it would be well to have
more than one voting place for the
school election. j. w. Cavanaugh,
as chairman of the committee ap-
pointed at the Turner hall meeting.
also informed the mayor that the de-
sire among the laboring people was
general for additional voting places,
at least one in either end of town.
The mayor said the law provides that
there shall be either one. or one for
each ward. The latter would be
rather expensive. All seemed salts
fled with the course the mayor had
taken after hearing the law read.
