CIVIL SERVICE WINS.
House Vote in Committee of the
Whole is Reversed.

Washington, Jan. AT the opening
of the session of the house today a gem
eral order was adopted providing for
the consideration of the naval person.
mel bill as soon as the bill for the codifi-
cation of the laws of Alaska is disposed
of, the order, however. not to interfere
with the consideration of appropriation
bills or conference reports. The diplo-
matte and consular appropriation bill
was reported and Mr.. Hit, chairman
of the foreign affairs committee gave
notice that he would call it up at the
earliest possible moment.
A bill was passed providing for the
free entry of certain bills presented by
Edwin NJ. Stanton, to the Iowa Agri-
cultural college and for the removal OF
the remains of Major General John
Rawlins, from the congressional ceme-
terry in this city to the cemetery at Ar
lington. The regular order was then
demanded and the house proceeded to
vote upon the amendment to the legis-
1atiVe executive and judicial appropri-
alton bill, which strikes out of that bill
the appropriation for the maintenance
of the civil service commission. This
amendment was adopted in COMMITTEES
of the whole by a vote of 67 to 81.
Mr. Moody Rep., ,Mass.) demanded the
yeas and nays and amid an uproarious
demand both from the friends and op-
ponents of the amendment, the clerk
called the roll.
The vote resulted in a reversal of the
decision of the committee of the whole.
The appropriation for the support OF
the commission was restored, the mo-
ton to strike out the appropriation be-
ing defeated 95 to 119.
The legislative bill was then passed
without division and under the continu-
ing order the house resumed considera-
ton OF the bill for the codifcation OF
the laws of Alaska, which was inter-
rupted last week when the legislative
bill was taken up.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1899-01-09

the latter try for reelection. Mr.. Bur-
ton is shrewd, smart and has world
of patience and he seems to always say
when he is downed: He who laughs
last, ETC."
By the way Cy Leland has hied him
self to Washington. Whether he was
sure of Speaker Osborne's election when
he left, is not known. Perhaps he was
more anxious to whisper in Bakers ear
than he was to congratulate Steve.
Now there is another fight on which
will be disposed of by the caucus to-
night. There is a disposition among
some of the politicians to name the as
SiStant clerks in the house but Mr.. Lob
delPS friends are opposing this plan and
have at this time the best of the argu-
ment and a fair prospect of preventing
such action.
Mr.. Burton was smart enough at the
opening of the last campaign to go out
into the representative districts and Sc
cure for candidates for representatives
men who had not been recognized in
connection with the political crowd
that has been running things in Kansas.
For that reason there will be new faces
in almost every seat in the house of
representatives tomorrow. Yet, they
are Burton men, having been nominated
and elected as such.

BURTON is
STRONG.
Has Organized the Lower House
of the Legislature.
The Ambition of Years on Mr..
Burton's Part
MAY BE REALIZED.
The Plan is to Put Baker Into
the Judgeship
And to Elect United States
Senator This Term.

]. r. Burton is slowly pushing tow
ards the United States senate and has
already taken the second important step
in that direction by organizing the lower
house of the new legislature which con-
Venes at noon tomorrow.
Mr.. Burton's managers have been
working night and day to elect S. J.
Osborn of Salina speaker of the house
and this has been accomplished. They
also worked w. E. Thompson of Scott
City against A. C. Jordan of Lyons for
sergeant-at-arms and he went down in
defeat. Charlie Lobden for chief clerk
met the approval of the Burton mana
gers and he was selected for the place.
Ed McKeever of Shawnee, a candidate
for speaker and recognized as an anti
Burton man was defeated. Benefiel of
Montgomery is to be speaker pro tenn.
All of these things tend to make j. r.
Burton United States senator. Now
Judge Foster has been retired by an act
of congress. The only thing remaining
for Mr.. Burton, Mr.. Leland and the
rest of the planners to accomplish is to
have President Mckinley tender the ap-
pointment of federal judge to Senator
Baker, bring sufficient pressure to bear
upon him to secure his resignation for
the judgeship, then have the present
legislature elect Mr.. Burton.
This could be done easily.
OF course a few cogs may slip in the
machine. For instance, Judge Foster
is very much alive yet. He may not be
docile and accommodating enough to re-
sign. He may serve on the bench some
years.
Another thing Senator Baker does not
want to be judge, at least he is pretty
we'll satisfied where he is. He has two
years more to complete his term and he
wants his law partner, Judge Hook, to
succeed Judge Foster.
However, Mr.. Burton is in pretty good
shape anyway. He is in close touch
with the members who have been elect
ed to this house and he knows many of
them may be reelected and two years
from now-if nothing tranSpireS mean
while-cOuld give Baker odds should

END OF SESSION.
The Special Session Comes to an End
at 1890 This Morning.

The special session of the Legislature
went out of business at 1920 o'clock to-
day, quietly and peacefully. The crowds
which were present at the opening of
the session were present today, but con-
fined to the house, where the people had
assembled on mission other than wit

They were there to crowd each other
for places of advantage to witness the
Inauguration of Governor Stanley.
The senate convened at 10 O'Clock and
inlmediately adopted the house concur
rent resolution, fixing the time of final
adjournment at IL o'clock.
The house and. senate clocks were
turned ahead half an hour and at 1920
by the correct time, the two bodies ad-
journed sine die.

A FIGHT Inevitable.
FiIipinOs Cable That They Are
Not the AggressOrs.

London, Jan. 9.-The Filipino commit
tees in Paris, Madrid and London tele-
graphed on Saturday to President Nc
protest against the Decentralization of
American troops at Iloilo."
The London telegram said: 1.-THE
treaty of peace still unratified. Ameri-
can claim of sovereignty premature.
Pray reconsider resolution regarding
Iloilo. Filipinos wish for the friendship
of America and abhor militarism and
deceit
A representative of the Associated
Press learns that the Filipino junta of
Paris has received a telegram from the
Filipino agent at Hong Kong, dated
Saturday and saying: Flight with
Americans unavoidable. We are not
the aggressors.'
A telegram from an English house at
Manila today says the situation is very
strained and that there is much anxiety
there. The dispatch also contains news
from Iloilo, the substance of which was
that the American troops had not yet
landed.
The members of the Filipino junta
discredit statement published in the
Globe here this afternoon that the
United States government has ordered
Agoncillo, the representative of
Aguinaldo, to leave Washington. They
say they surely would have heard the
news if it had been true.
Mail adViceS from the So-called Fill
pino government received here today
say that AguinaidO has decided that all
foreign trade entering ports under Fill
pino control will be admitted on the
valorem and that all export trade is
liable to a duty of per cent adValorem.

THE OLD HOUSES LAST HOURS
Less Than Half Quorum Present on
the Floor This Morning.

The house was called to order this
morning at $3.50 by Speaker Street. AS
there was no adjournment Saturday
evening, but simply a recess taken, it
was unnecessary to call the roll, and if
the roll had been called, it would have
disclosed the fact that not half of
quorum was present.
The desks had all been removed and
the chairs were punched in the front
part of the hall. On them lounged 25 or
80 members, and although the house
was assembled for business, the work
men about the hall kept on with their
work of preparing it for the Inaugural
ton.
The only business transacted was the
Introduction of two concurrent resolu-
tions, one providing for the final ad
journment of the house at IL o'clock
and the other providing for a joint COM
Inittee of three from the house and two
from the senate to wait upon Governor
Leedy and ascertain if he had further
communications for the legislature.
Representatives Hackney, Lewis and
Try were appointed as the house part of
the committee.
The house then took a recess till 10
o'clock.

nation for forwarded.to Gov. Leedy on
Sunday, Jan. 8, 1898, and Immediately
afterward, upon learning the fact, l
wired the governor Withdrawing my said
resignation. Contrary to my instruc-
tions and against my direct request,
the governor accepted said resignation
and placed the same on file in the of
now remains. Said acceptance and fill
ing was made after 1 had withdrawn
the resignation to the governor and be-
fore he had sent notice, if such notice
was sent, of his acceptance.
I therefore ask that this senate, by
proper proceedings, declare me qualified
to hold the said office and sit in the
senate during the remainder of the term
for which 1 was elected.

than thirty days
Governor Leedy may leave this work
for Governor Stanley as he had not this
morning made up his mind concerning
it.
Last Friday the people of Clay county
telegraphed to Mr.. Hanna to support
the supplemental railroad bill. He de-
clined to do so and went home to Clay
Center for a conference with the local
workers. They insisted that he support
the measure but he declined and de-
clared that he would vote against it at
all times. When his constituents in
sisted Mr.. Hanna wrote out his resig-
nation and placed it in the hands of the
committee. Mr.. Hanna said he would
not support the bill and suggested to
the people at home that if they did not
like his action they could send the reSig-
nation to the governor.
Mr.. Hanna, however, scarcely antici-
pated such sudden action. He did not
think that his constituents at Clay Cen
ter would act so precipitately. As it
was, they rushed the resignation down
to the governor on Sunday and de-
manded immediate action, so the gov
ernor accepted it Sunday morning Soon
after it was accepted, the governor re-
ceived a message from Senator Hanna
withdrawing the resignation
But it was too late.
Immediately after the senate con-
vened this morning a message from the
governor announced the acceptance of
Senator Hanna'S resignation.
Immediately Senator Hanna offered
the following statement:
January 9, 1899.
To the Senate:
Some days ago, a question having
arisen regarding my vote in certain
matters pending in the senate, I deem
ed it right and proper to place my resig-
nation as senator in the hands of the
secretary of the senatorial committee,

ernOr upon certain conditions and
limitations, which were expressed by
