I'HEARMY BILL
Passed After q Motion to Recon-,
NIT for Amendment Was
Defeated.
Amendment Offered by MI &
Cummings Forbidding the
President
To Use the Army as 9 POss ga
Commitatus to Suppress
Riots, y
Except on the Request Of tho
Governor Of the State, Was
Defeated.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The army bill
passed the house by vote of 1865 to 1875,
after motion to recommit had been
lost, III to 10.
The opposition before the opening
had practically abandoned hope Of be-
ing able to compass either the defeat or
the recommittal Of the bill. When the
house resumed work upon the bill, Sec
ton 10, relating to the pay department,
had been reached. The number Of of
ficers in several grades were reduced BY
about one-fourth.
Mr.. Cannon Rep3 nls.) directed at.
tention to the amendment Mr.. Cum
mings Osm., N. W offered to prevent
the use Of United States troops as posse
commitatus or in putting down strikes
and riots, except upon the written ap-
plication Of the governor Of the state.
The amendment, said Mr.. Cannon, pro-
posed to put it out of the power of the
president, the constitution to the con-
trary notwithstanding, to enforce the
law within the territory of any state,
unless the governor appealed for help.
After brief but heated debate be-
tween Mr.. Cummings and Mr.. Cannon
the house rejected Mr.. Cummings'
amendment to prevent the army being
used to suppress riots in states except
upon application of the governors there
for. An amendment by Mr.. johnson
an. d. to prevent all sales of intoxicants
in army canteensiwas adopted.
A substitute was adopted for the:sec-s
ton providing for promotions, which
was designed to equalfze promotions. Al
fight was made to reduce the age limits
for officers to be appointed to the. vari-
GUS staff departments from 80 to, 80, but
it failed An amendment was, how
ever, adopted to require mental and
moral as well as physical examination
for such appointees. Much of the time
was occupied in short speeches on the
general proposition to increase the army
and annex the Philippines and there

Captain Phillips was born in New

retain 1t.

tomac River, when revenue cutters
acted as gunboats. More recently he
commanded the Dexter at Newport for
three years, then was assigned to the

Rev. Mr.. Knickerbocker of Trinity

Rain on the Just and the Unjust.
There is no prior reason he said,
against invading the physical realm in
our prayers. God is able to answer.
He hangs answers to prayers as ripe
fruit on a stem of intelligence and in
dustry. If we are able by new process
for invading a hitherto locked reservoir
to supply our need for rain, God will
not send it in answer to prayer. After
man has exhausted all resources does
God exercise his power"
Rev. Mr.. Mason's text was: Fear

Waves may roll mountain high; a
little bark may be sinking and every

his magic touch the blindness of sin
turned into the eyesight of truth, rags
of disobedience into garments of right

NEW YORK, March 12.-Mrs. Clar-

EXCURSION MARRIED
BY A SAD ACCIDENT
Young Sacramentan Drowned While
on an Outing With Party
of Foresters.

SACRAMENTO, March 12.-Last night
a large number of members of the Order
of Foresters went down the Sacramento
River by boat to Walnut Grove to assist
in instituting a new lodge there. Among
the number was Gottleb Schnitt, a well
known young Sacramentan. The steamer
was moored alongside the bank and a
gangplank afforded means for the eXcur-
sionists to debark. The ceremony of in
stituting the new lodge was gone through
with in the town hall, and then the large
assemblage sat down to a banquet.
The feast had not proceeded far when
the cry, Man overboard! was heard
coming from the direction of the river
closed the absence of Schmitt. The ban
queters, filled with forebodings, ran to
the steamer and found all in commotion
there. mans hat had been discovered
on the edge of the boat outside the guard
rail and near the gangplank. Somebody
had heard a splash and a despairing ap-
peal for help. The hat was examined by
the visiting Foresters and recognized as
that of Schmitt. Search was made for
the missing man, but without avail, and
this morning the excursionists returned
to the city convinced that their brother
member lay at the bottom of the river.
Young Schmitt was never known to
taste liquor and he certainly had drank
nothing on the trip down the river. How
he came to fall overheard is a mystery.
The theory of suicide is not seriously en-
tertained, since so far as known the young
man had no troubles which. should lead
him to take his life. While the banquet
was in progress a salute from a small
cannon was sent off at intervals, and ii
is thought by some that Schmitt was on
the gangpiank when the first of these re-
ports occurred, and that, startled by the
sudden noise, he lost his balance and fell
into the water.
Schmitt was employed at the candy fac
tory of w. +. Peterson and was unmar
ried. Men dragged the river bed in the
vicinity of the drowning all of to-day
without recovering. the body.

CORBIN DECLINED
TO BE PROMOTED
Was offered Major Generalship by
Mckinley During the
War

NEW YORK. March 12.-The Washing
ton correspondent of the Herald tele-
graphs: l learned to-day that President
Mckinley during the war offered an ap-
pointment as major general of volunteers
10 Rrigadier General Corbin, adjutant
general, but that officer respectfully de-
clined it.
General Corbin's declination is probably
unique in army history, as ii is extremely
doubtful IL any officer ever offered an ap-
army ever refused to accept it. General
Corbin's declination was due to the fact
that Congress had failed to. make pro-
vision for a reward Of Major General
Merritt and Major General Otis and other
officers. who distinguished themselves in
the field, while he, though his work was
arduoHs remained in Washington
throughout the struggle.
