DEBATE ON THE LOUD BILL
Its Author Makes a Plea for
His Measure.
NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK
when Mr.. kitchin of North Caro-
lima Began to Arraign the Re
publican Party, SPEAKER Reed
STOPS Hmm. McMiIIin Came to
His Colleagues Rescue in Vain.

The House yesterday devoted its time
exclusively to a debate on the Loud bill,
which provides an amendment to the
postal laws relating TO second-class mat
ter. The discussion viii be continued to-
day ana tomorrow.
Under the proposed measure hut 10 per
cent of the bona fide circulation of a
newspaper can be sent through the mails
as second-class matter as sample copies
of papers. When papers are sent from
news agency to actual subscribers or TO
other news agents the bill excludes them
from the mails as Second-class matter.
Bound publications are likewise excluded.
Mr.. Loud of California made long
speech in favor OF his bill saying among
other things that the passage of the
measure would save the Government a
great deal of money. He declared the
deficiency in the postal revenues increas-
ed each year; that il amounted to $9.0GG.-
000 in 1896 and in lS9. it was So, 600 900, and
this year the deficiency will almost reach
S14.0G00 900. He attributed this deficiency
to the existing regulations for second
class mail matter, and declared that this
item alone cost the Government $4,000 900,
and returned Il revenue of but 50 D0J, 900.
Mr.. Loud asserted that the opposition
manifested by the country press to the
bill had been instigated by publishing
houses in the great cities, which, if the
bill becomes a law. viii have to pay a
heavier postage for the transmission of
books
Mr. Bingham of Pennsylvania opposed
the bill on the ground that it retarded
educational facilities Mr. Hinrichsen of
Illinois and Mr. Perkins of Iowa favored
the bill.
Late in the afternoon Mr.. Kitchin of
North Carolina obtained the floor and
proceeded to arraign the Republican par
ty for not Keeping faith with the people.
He was interrupted by Speaker Reed,
who declared him out of order. Mr.. Me-
Millin of Tennessee took issue with the
Speaker, and insisted that Mr.. Kitchin
was not out of order. Mr. Grow of Penn
sylvania upheld the Speaker. and further
debate was cut short by the Speaker en-
forcing his ruling and entertaining a mo-
tiOn to adjourn.

". r. Hearst Of the New York Jour
nal. who has been friend of Cuba IL
more ways than one. has decided that the
present attitude Of the Administration in
regard TO tho Maine disaster is such that
an investigation by Congress is neces-
sary
Mr. Hearst realizes that only positive
and indispujable evidence would cause
Congress To take matters out of the hands
Of tn Administration. and he has deter
mined that several conservative members
of both Houses. whose word is unques-
lionabIe. shall be put in possession OF
fscts that viii be d convincing proof that
H.. Administration has been dallying with
lis duty IN a manner that may cause its
eventual disgrace and shame, if not the
impeachment OF some persons in high
places.
TIL failure on the part Of the President
te forward TO Congress the reports on the
Cuban situation. and also in regard to the
Maine disaster. has created a feeling Of
lively Indignation in the bosoms of more
than one prominent statesman, and the
horrible suspicion mat Wall street may
he bottlmg up the Americanism OF the
President has seized hold Of some of the
hitherto warm supporters of any policy
adopted 10y the Administration For this
reason Senators Gallinger. Thurston and
Money and Representatives Cummings
and William Alden Smith have started
for Havana as the guests of Mr. Hearst
Senators Gray and Burrows had promised
TO 20 with the party, but at the last mo-
mept decided HOt to 10 So
All of the evidence which the party can
obtain from Gen. Lee and others in re
gard to the Maine disaster win be ad-
judged carefully and the condition of the
starving reconcentrados will be noted
closely. A cruise along the coast of
Cuba stopping al different ports, will be
n feature OF the expedition. and when
the members Of it shall have returned it
is expected that the evidence they will
bring win be Of such nature as to con-
vince the most skeptical that Spain is re-
Sponsble for the wreck of the Maine and
p that This Government must intervene in
cuba al once
II was rumored last night that at Key
West the party would be shown evidence
of Spanish treachery which cannot be re-
fUied. The story goes that Mr.. Hearst's
correspondents in Havana discovered and
transported 10 Key West portions or
fragments Of gigantic torpedo which
caused Jhr wreck. This, however, could
not be confirmed.

Sheriff Smith and District Attorney

mother was notified and she said she
would rather take care of him herself
than have u nurse do it. She came here
last Friday morning and began nursing
her son. He refused to take nourishment,
and began to fail rapidly.
Mrs Smith knocked on the window of
Jailer Baumbaushs room at o'clock
on Sunday morning and told him he had
better send for doctor, as her son was
worse. and would probably not live long.
Before the jailer had dressed Mrs. Smith
again came TO his window and told him

SHOWED THE WHITE FEATHER.
Ralph Irving Runs Away From
Jack Farrell

Jack Farrell was given the decision last
night over Ralph Irving after the latter
had shown his cowartlice by turning his
back upon his opponent before he was
whipped, and by spelling a good fight in
a crazy retreat.
There was a large crowd at Steuben-
ers roadhouse, where the fight took place.
many of the sports who had been disap-
pointed so many times before having
shown up to see what promised to be a
real battle.
Farrell entered the ring first with his
seconds-Messrs. Farrell. Nash, OConnor
and Patterson. AS the white man en-
tered the ring a few minutes later the
demonstration showed that he was the
favorite. In his corner were Jack Smith,
Ed Mcclure, Jack Hensel and jim
Thecker.
The fight began with frving leading. He
played around the eolored boy, who was
waiting for an opening. Farrell began by
stopping the white mans dance with a
stiff right-hand blow over the heart. This
was followed with a left lead for the head,
which was cieverly lodged. Irving then
tried to mix things up. but got only a
stiff one in the ribs for his trouble. Far
rell then began to follow his man around
the ring, making things pretty lively for
him and getting in two more good body
blows.
In the second round Farrell took the
lead and worked his left onto the white
mans ribs. He. had his man on the ropes,
but the latter got away Farrell follow
ed him across the ring and gave him a
right swing on the jaw. This seemed to
daze Irving. He looked frightened, and
hung onto the ropes, turning his back
when the colored boy struck at him. Far
rell hit him twice, and then before any
one could interfere irving jumped over
the ropes and tried TO climb up the seats
His seconds tried to get him in the ring
before he was counted out, but he only
tried to get away ali the more.
The fight was awarded 10 Farrell.
After the farce described above there
was Il boxing match Of six rounds between
Monk Robinson and Billy Nash, both of
this city.
