| Washington, March 7.-Today's SEES

to considerat ton Of the District of Co.

of adjournment the bill had not been
disposed of and its discussion Will be
continued tomorrow.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.
! The spirit Of patriotism was rampant
in the house today and by almost an
unanimous vote, the Hawley bill, pro-
viding for two additional regiments of
artillery was passed under suspension
of the rules. No effort was made to
obstruct action, but Mr.. Bailey, the
democrat leader, pleaded for more time
than the forty minutes allowed under
the rule, and because it was refused
after the bill had been passed he in
augurated a filibuster against District
of Columbia legislation that continued
an day. MI. Bailey desired to speak in
favor of the bill, but could not get time.
During the day he had several sharp
tilts with the speaker.
Most of the time in ia Of the bill
was consumed in one minute speeches.
Mr.. Hull and two republicans refrain
ed from referring 30 any emergency,
but some of the democrats who spoke
did and Mr.. Williams, of Mississippi,
referred directly to prOba BILE war with
Spain. Every expression construed
into a reference to a support of the
government in a possible crisis was
received with applause.
Mr.. HUH, in opening the debate, eX-
plained brief1y the necessity for these
men Ito man the coast defenSeS of the
country. But July LIST, he said, 244 big
gun and 232 mOrtars would be mount
ed, 416 in all. These guns required is

Of war sixty. here were but OPS ar
tillerymen all told in the service. The
guns emDlaced July LIST would require
1000 men, regardless of any ~exigency
that might arise. Even if no eXigency
arose these men, he insisted, would be
necessary to care for the Notifications
and guns upon which we were eXpend-
ing millions of dollars. The charge
that this bin was an attempt to in
crease the standing army, to be used
possibly to OveTarWe the cities, he said,
he considered too frivolous to discuss.
Mr.. Jones, democrat, of Virginia, the
other democrat Who OPPOSED the bin,
insisted that the bill was not a war
measure; it had been recommend for
several years. He claimed that it made

OTHER THINGS NEEDED.

There are things wanted much more
than warships in case of trouble and
the army shares these needs, so that a
fair proportion for the $50, OO0, 900 would
have to go to the war department.
These are abundant supplies of shot
and shell and powder. The army is as
short as the navy of these essential
stores. Tt has been found greatly to
the qualification of the army officers,
that there will not be nearly as much
difficulty in securing modern arms for
