WE'RE DUE TO THE WAR.

Chairman Cannon Explains Hevy Expend-
:. itures of the Recent Congress.
WASHINGTON, March THE official
statement Of Representative Cannon of
Illinois, the chairman of the house APP
proprias ions committee, summing up
the appropriations for the. Fifty-ffth
congress. shows an aggregate appropri-
alton by tie entire congress of 81, $50, :
S90,0l6 and for the session. just closed a
total of $67S, 65s, 400, with authority for:
contracts subject to future appropria-
lions amounting to 100000, 900. Chair
man Cannon says: sss9s
1.-The appropriations made at the ses-
sion of congress just closed amount APP
proximately to ae73, 65S, 400 and show an
apparent reduction of s219, 573, 600 under
the appropriations made at the preced-
ing session. This is attributable to the
large expenses
Occasioned by the War With Spain
that were provided for during the pre-
ceding session. The entire appropria-
lions made by the Fifty-fifth congress
aggregate 81, 569, 890, 0l6.2S. Of this
1892. 562 0S3. AZ is directly chargeable to
our late war orincident thereto. Deduct
ing this charge from the whole amount
of the appropriations the remainder,
81, 1884. 327e32.S 81, represents the ordi-
nary appropriations made by the Fifty
fifth congress.
1.-The appropriations made by the pre-
ceding congress. the Fifty-fourth,
amounted to 81 ,044 $50, 273.S7. A COM
parison shows an increase in ordinary
appropriations made by this congress
over those made by that congress of
$50, TAI ,000."
Mr. Doclzery's Comment.
Mr.. Dockery, the ranking Democratic
member of the house appropriations
committee, in reviewing the work of
the last congress. says: sd
'This congress easily surpasses all its
predecessors in the stupendous aggre-
gate of its appropriations. 1t was
thought that the Fifty-frst congress,
commonly known as the billion dollar
congress- had, in point of extravaganza
of appropriations, touched limit
which would not be reached or, at least,
surpassed by any of its successors.
This congress, however, has far ex-
ceeded the appalling total of appropria-
lions then made and it will be remem-
bered that the billion dollar congress
was followed by overwhelming disaster
to the Republican party at the ensuing
election.
War Appropriations Cheerfully Made.
Confronted with a war with Spain,
requiring the imposition Of additional
taxation. it is obvious that rigid econ
omy should have been applied in all
other directions to the expenditure. of
public money. The people were willing
to meet all the demands upon the ma
tional treasury made necessary by the
Spanish war, but it is fair to presume
that they expected their Representatives.
in view of the cheerful disposition man
Tested to meet these added burdens, to
limit the ordinary appropriations to the
necessities Of a wise and economical adj
s'These expectations have not been
realized. The result is an actual def
cheney in current revenues amounting
on the first of this month to 500,

WASHINGTON, March Z. - There is
some reason to expect important news
from Manila within the next fortnight.
1t has developed that General Otis has
practically completed his plans for
grand onslaught on the insurgents which
is expeeted to deprive them of offensive
power at least. It is probable that he
will form a large part of his force into
columns, as soon as reinforcements are
all at hand, and will push these in par
allel lines straight through the jungies,
clearing Oul the insurgents In every
direction as the troops move forward.
The American troops are getting rest
less and nervous under the petty but
annoying sharp-shooting of the Fill
pinos, and are SO ANXIOUS to put stop
to this that General Otis has yielded to
their desire.
Forces in the Philippines. sa
Forty-one thousand officers and men
of the combined army and navy forces
comprise the approximate total Ameri-
can strength now at, en- route and under
orders for service at the Philippines.
No further, reinforcenents are now in
contemplation. The forces of the two
services already stationed in and about
the archipelago consists of 20 regiments
of infantry, l engineer battalion, Z
troops of cavalry and II batteries OF
artillery. an aggregate Of about 24,0J0
men. Nineteen vessels with an aggre-
gate at 297 officers, 1880 men and s53
marines make up the naval contingent.
This is exclusive of the transport Solace
with 162 officers and men all told, which
is constantly passing back anu forth
