REPLY TO GOVERNOR LEE.

South Dakota Troops VIII He Returned
- Soon - Possible.
WASHINGTON, April 16.-The war de-
partment will reply to the telegram Of
Governor Lee of South Dakota to Presi-
dent Mckinley. asking for the imme-
date muster out and return of the
eouth Dakota troops in the Philippines,
that the troops will be brought home as
deemed expedient by the United States,
and as soon as possible with tho trans
ports at hand. It is held at the war de-
Dartment that the law requiring tho
muster out of troops contemplates that
the executive department shall have
SIMPLE time to issue the necessary orders
and make the necessary preparations to
properly discharge the soldiers and
bring them home. The provision In the
bill allowing the volunteers in the Phil
ippines to be enlisted for six months
may be construed to mean the volunteers
will not be mustered out before that
time, IL they are necessary to the gov
eminent. That this view will not be ten
able if the troops demand to be mustered
cut is generally conceded, for Chairman
Hull stated on the floor Of the house
when asked if the six months clause
would be construed to continue the
volunteers in the Philippines if they
wanted to come home, replied that he
had the assurance of the administration.
that such would not be the construc-
ton. -gn, .. .1.y. i.
An official Of the department said that
the matter was in the hands Of General
Otis, and it would be satisfactorily ar
ranged by him and the volunteers in
the islands. Already those who de-
ared to leave because of pressing busi-
ness needs, or because tfs support Of
their families depends on their return,
are being discharged. ~

SENT TO CONFERENCE.

House Hesitatss About Accepting Omni.
bus Bill Amendments.
The house disposed Of the calendar Of
IS bills at the afternoon session, IL of
the measures passing. On general Or
ders, which contained 68 bills, 6 were
advanced to the calendar and indef-
nitely postponed.
The omnibus appropriation bill was
returned to tho house from the senate
with additional appropriations amount
ing to $67. 600 added to the figures a.
passed by the house.
Mr.. jacobson Of Lac qui Parle in
sisted that the house not concur, and
Mr.. Yale of Winona moved as substi-
tute that the bill with the senate
amendments be passed. Jacobson's
motion was carried and Messrs. Jacob
son, Yale and Wallace were appointed
by the speaker as the conference com.
mittee.
Antitrust Bill Debated.
The antitrust bill was before the
house as special order, but final action
was deferred until lengthy amend
ment by Mr.. Dwinnell could be printed.
The amendment is virtually new BILL
Mr.. Dwinnell, in speaking on the meas
ure, said the original bill was too
sweeping. It involved any labor organ
ization which formed a combination; it
involved even dairy associations formed
to maintain prices on butter and cream.
In fact it involved q hundred useful do
mestic organizations formed to main
tain prices. This, Mr.. Dwinnel in
sisted, was far too radical, and said that
that was one Of the reasons the present
antitrust bill, which had been on the
books since 1891, had never been en-.
forced. .s%sA H.Gts
