NEW SENATOR FROM TEXAS.
Gey. CuIbersOn, Who viii Succeed
Mr.. Mills. Highly Praised.

The Texas people at the Capitol speak In
glowing terms of praise about Governor
CulberSon, who has been elected to sue
ceed Mr.. Mills in the United States Senate,
Governor Culberson is a son of Judge Cul-
berson, who is now member of the COM
mission for the codifcation Of the laws,
and who until his voluntary retirement was
for several terms one of the most diStin-
guished members Of the House of Repre-
sentatives. The senator-elect is spoken of
as possessing as great ability as his father,
together with characteristics of his own
that heighten his powers in a way to at
tract to himself more of the public atten-
tion than the judge ever enjoyed The new
senator is about forty-four years old, and
has the reputation, similar to that of his
father, of being a lawyer of great ability.
He is also an orator of reputation. and one
of the cleverest politicians Of the state.
He is spoken of as a man who always has
something to say when he makes a speech
and can say it in a peculiarly graceful,
forcefui and effective way.
great career in the Senate is predicted
for him, as he is a man of Judgment as
well as of ability, and Is not apt to over
reach himself at the start. 1t is said that
he is likely to be regarded as the finest
frank, sociabie manner which is SURE TO
make him popular.
1t is said that Senator Mills who retires
from the Senate On the 4th of March. is
rapidly getting rich and will probably soon
he Il millionaire. During his whole career
in Congress Mr.. Mills has been poor but
short time ago oil was discovered on his
property, and the wells are now producing 2
great quantities of this weaith-producing
fluid

SITUATION IMPROVING,
Gen. Otis Reports Less Excitement at
Manila.

Secretary Alger received a long cable
message from Maj. Gen. Otis at Manila
last evening, the contents of which were
very gratifying to the officers of the admin
istration. The following brief extracts
from the message were made public:
Situation improving. Less excitement
prevailing"
There were no special Developments in
the Philippine situation today so far as the
executive branch of the government is M
cerned, and the official statement was made
that there would be no change in the ID. J.
icy OF the administration pending the action
of the Senate on the treaty of peace. No
communication passed between Secretary
Hay and Agonciiio. 50 far as known, and
there is no indication of any proposed in
reference with the iatter's freedom in this
country under existing conditions. 1t has
been intimated that Agoucllo is seeking to
secure his arrest by this government with
view 10 becoming martyr to his cause,
but II Is not likely that he will be graft
fed in this respect even if such is his pur-
pose.

TO VOTE ON THE TREATY
Senator Mason's Resolution to Be Made a
Test Of Strength.
1t Will Probably BE Defeated and
Opposition Will Then
Dwindie.

On the authority of several leading SEN
ators who were at the White House today
it is learned that it Is the intention of the
advocates of the adoption of the peace
treaty to permit a vote to be taken in the
Senate before February on the question Of
the policy this country will pursue as TO
the Philippines. Senator Aldrich, when
asked about the matter at the White House,
said that he understood that a vote would
be arranged for.
The Mason Resolution n Test
1t is further learned that the resolution
Of Senator Mason will probably be the one
to be selected fer a test vote. This vote
will decide whether the Senate will commit
the country at this time or postpone the
matter until the next session of Congress
The question is of the greatest Importance
and those who oppose the adoption of any
policy now say that they do not believe the
Senate will pass any resolution formulating
a policy or putting this country in a posi-
ton from which it cannot be extricated
Senator Carter, who was at the White
House today, said he believed the treaty
will be ratified.
1t is conjectured that after a vote has
been taken in the Senate on the resolution
of Senator Mason and it has been defeated
the opposition to the ratification of the
treaty Will u"lndle, tHuS pfacllcaliy max
ing sure of the adoption of the treaty. 1t
is not known whether the President gave
his sanction to the plan, but it is known
that the matter has been agreed to and
will be carried out unless there is a change
between now and next week.
The Army Bill.
Influential republicans at the White
House today, including floor leaders of the
House, say that the army reorganization
bill will probably become law after it has
authorized the increase of the army to
$4,000 men. 1t will, however contain a
proviso that If the President finds any
situation demanding an Increase he may
temporarily increase the army to 100000
men. Such men General Grosvenor be-
lieve that the bill will pass Congress in the
shape named.

WOULD WRECK PERSONNEL BILL.
Opposition to Appointment of Civil
fans in the Navy.

The Introduction of an amendment to
the naval personnel bill in the Senate COM
mittee on naval affairs permitting the d.
rect appoints tment in the navy of civilians,
has had tho effect to unite all branches of
the service in opposition, and It is asserted
at the Navy Department today that If
the amendment is persisted in the whole
bill will be lost. The main argument is
that the appointment of a number of civil
ians now would Greats just such hump
as resulted from the appointments made
during the civil war, which caused the
fatal stagnation from which the service
is still suffering.
