WASHINGTON, Feb. l3-General de.
bate on the sundry civil app"opria.

The speakers during the day touched
variety of topics, but as rule the

priatioas committee, reinforced Mr..
Cannop's figures as to the deficiency in

souri,, Mr.. Gillett of Massachusetts
and others discussed the policy OF ex.
paAsion. and Mr.. Lentz of Ohio
severely criticised the admins ration
for exercising clemency in the case Of
General Eagan.
The latter charged there was an evil
dent disposition to reward those who
attacked General Miles. because the
latter had the manhood to tell the
truth about the alleged rotten food
fed to our troops in Porto Rico and
Cube.
During the course of the debate Mr..
Hepburn. chairman Of the interstate
and foreign commerce committee. gave
notice that he would of r the Nicar.

passed. Among them were the Senate
bill to pension Letitia Tyler Sem,le,
the daughter of President Tyler, which
deadlocked the House q week ago, and
