SENATOR TURNER
 ON COLONIALISM Speaks in Favor of the Vest Anti-
 Expansion Resolution. NICARAUGA CANAL BILL No Vote on the Measure Mas Secured
 in Senate Yesterday. SOUTHERN MAIL APPROPRIATION Stricken from the Postoffice Bill on Mo- tion of Moody of Massachusetts
 -Foraker Replies to Tur-
 ner in the Senate.
SOUTHERN MAIL APPROPRIATION

Washington, January 19.-The senate list ened further today to discussion of the pol icy of expansion. MT. Turner (pop) of Washington delivered a speech on the Vest resolution in which he took issue with Sen- ator Foraker upon his recent utterances.
 At the conclusion of Mir Turner's argu- ment, Mr Foraker took some sharp excep- tions to statements made in the speech, especially those referring to him person- ally. He explained at length the nature of his statements, declaring, among other things that he had spoken only for himself and had no intention or desire to pose as the representative of the administration 50 far as his utterances were concerned.
 The Nicaragua canal bill was under con- sideration nearly three hours. After much debate a substitute presented by MT. Mor- gan for the bond amendment offered by MT. Allison was adopted. It provides that the secretary of the treasury should not pay out for work on the canal more than $2OOO0,- 900 during any fiscal year.
 MT. Mills, of Texas, presented joint res- olution directing the secretary of war to have made survey and estimate of cost or a channel between Texas City and Calves ton, and it was adopted
 Senator Turner Speaks
 Mr. Turner, of Washington, took the floor to address the senate on the anti-expanslon resolution of MT Vest, of Missouri. He op- posed our acquiring the Philippines, and said the noble ship of state, its chart nav ing been torn to tatters, was drlA.,ng whither she would on wild and unknown sea. This dangerous condition, he said, was being forced upon the ship by "the pretense that Providence had cast upon us new re- responsibilities which we may not shirk." He could not agree, however, that this dan gerous responsibility was one for the Amer ican people to assume.
 MT. Turner denied the contention that the acquisition of distant territory had been forced upon this country by the arbitra- ment of war. This country was at liberty to retain such foreign territory as 1t had conquered if it so desired, and such Of It as was suitable in soil climate and inhab- itants, we might want to keep, but he de- ned that our only recourse was to give back the conquered territory to the enemy.
 "If we may keep it ourselves said ne, i've may acquire it to be given to the peo- ple who inhabit it for the purpose of inoe- pendence and 'ibatf5,

 ueme~se4s by declining to consider the case.
 The postoffice appropriation bill was then taken up. The greatest surprise of the day was the adoption of two amendments strik- ing out of the bill the appropriation of $171 900 for the fast Southern mail and $25,- 900 for special mail facilities between Kan sas City and Newton, Kas. This appropria- ton for the Southern mail has been fought annually for six or seven years, but has always been retained. The increase in the appropriation for the pneumatic tube serv- ice from S225, 900 to $30O,000 was knocked out by the elimination of the provision which fell under point of order, for the repeal of the law against the extension of this service. The house adjourned with a mo- tion to recommit it pending. The motion carried instructions to strike out the words newly acquired territory" in connection with an appropriation of sSOO,OOO for mail facilities in Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines.
 Senate bills were passed authorizing the Arkansas and Choctaw Railroad company to construct railroad through the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations, in Indian Territory, and authorizing the Georgia and Alabama Railroad company to construct bridge across the Savannah river from the man- land to Hutchinson Island. Contested Election MT Crumpacker (rep.) of Indiana then called up the contested election case of Brown vs. Swanson, from the Fifth Vir- | ginia district.
 | MT. Miers (dem) of Indiana opposed con- | sideration, and the house decided, P to IS, not to consider the case. President A. D. Angel, of the Michigan university, was re-appointed president of | the Smithsonian Institute. A bill was passed granting a site on Fort l Supply Military reservation to Oklahoma | for an insane asylum. A~ The house then went into committee of | the whole on the postoffice appropriation bill.

Galveston, Tex, January 19.-The twenty five round glove contest booked for tonight between Coynski and Jim Hall was declared off today account of the sheriff having interfered. Adjutant-General Tom s. Curry and seven Texas rangers were here to see that the fight did not take place. A bag punching exhibition lasting about ten min utes was substituted for the occasion and 300 people paid admission to the show. Many believed that the fight would be pulled off in spite of the warning, and this accounted for the attendance.

This, he to pursue TL~ 1@-

....# ##== F.-#=# "A. tne domain of pru-
 -. of principle, MT. Turner main- .alned that the proposition of power urged by many breaks down every fundamental principle on which our institutions are founded. Under such proposition the principles of the declaration of indepen- dence that taxation without representation is tyranny and that the powers of govern ment are derived from the consent of the governed, could no longer be guide to our statesmen.
 "Senators may say" he declared, "that their positions do not lead to those things, but there Is only one escape fyom them: A universal miscegenation of blood, or re- ligion and of government, with the yellow Buddhsts, Mohammedans and Confuccians over whom it is proposed to extend our protecting wing, and with whom it proposes to attempt the process of degluttonization and digestion disguised under the Christian and euphonious name of benevolent assim- ilation.'
 Foraker's Statement
 Mr. Turner adverted to the statement of MT. Foraker few days ago that it was not the purpose of the United States to retain the Philippines permanently, but he said he was forced to differ from the Ohio senator, because he found in the treaty which had been negotiated under the direction of the president "evidence of such character that it must override the opinion of the dis tinguished senator from Ohio." He refer red to that part of the treaty, he said, which made not only a cession to this coun- thn I..,f an acceptance by us of that sovereignty. It was impossible to forget, too, that the treaty was negotiated in the midst of a clamor for an extension of our dominions. As further proof of his position MT. Turner referred to the presidents speech at At lanta in which he asked, ''Who is there that will dare to haul down the American fag from the soil upon which it has once been planted"
 He said the president had made the mean ing of the administration too plain for con- troversy.
 A Pleasing Thought In conclusion, MT. Turner said: 'Tt Is well enough to hug the pleasing thought that we are great people and that there is no responsibility that can be thrust on us which we canot meet and face and accept with safety That this is true, all may well believe, else our fathers fought and wrought in vain, and we, of this day. are degenerate children. But it is the height of quixotism and the reverse of the teachings of the fathers to go around the world hunting re- responsibilities and counting dangers because we are able to meet them"
 MT. Foraker maintained that neither he nor any other senator had held that con-

 There have been so many rumors from time to time regarding the starting of the rolling mill and all with so little foundation, in fact that all such reports have come to be received with skepticism here. It is now said, however, that arrangements have been made by Birmingham parties understood to be connected with the Birmingham rolling mill to start up the sheet mill of the plant here, the ingots to be furnished by the Bir- mingham mill.

MERITS OF CANDIDATES

Prefers the Election of the Leading
Candidate Because He Has Pushed
His Own Way to the Front

as Judge Powers.
Cspeetal Correspondence

Washington, D. c., Feb. 1.-The long,
drawn out struggle for the Utah SEN
atorship has been watched in Washing
ton with no diminution of interest from
day TO day AS has been before stated
in this correspondence, the Washington
observers were generally more inter
ested in the candidates with whom they
were acquainted than in those of the
leading candidate, Hon. a. W. McCune-
This was due to the natural desire Of
all public men to see those now mere
continue in public life. The desire Tor
prolongation Of careers in congress IS
like the longing for immortality. The
man who is now in is interested in the
others, for their success may be pro-
phetic OF his own, just as man would
like other me.i 20 live forever, chiefly
because it gives him a. chance himself.
Mr. McCune, however, has not been
without strong friends in the senate
who have hoped for his success. Among
these have been some Of the best known
OF the western senators. senator Shoup
said today: While 1 am not particu-
larry interested in the election Of any
Democrat from any state, Tor political
reasons. I should like TO see Mr.. Nc
Cune succeed, because he is weli-known
throughCut the mining country and is
a man who has pushed his own way to
the front. despite many obstacles. and
become one Of the substantial men of
the mountain country.
Judge Kings friends have been large
" in the house, where he made bril-
liant record during his single term.
The leaders Of the Democratic party in
that body from the beginning OF the
contest have been warmly DESTROYS Of
his success. Leader Joseph w. Bailey
has been particularly interested in the
outcome.
Senator Jones, chairman OF the Demo-
cratic national committee, would have
been pleased if Senator Frank J. Can
non could have been returned, and this
result was also much desider by Sen
ator Teller Of Colorado. Up to the time
of his retirement, Judge Powers also
had leading men here who were earn
es.tly ..touting'' for him. These friends
included many prominent men whom he
has met in the several national cOnven-
lions in which he has been delegated
from Michigan and Utah.
From the first. however, there has
been no doubt that whatever the re-
suit. Utah Democracy was sure to con-
tribute to the nations councils a DEM
ocrat Of ability, character and force.

TAGGED TO A CONGRESSMAN.
Mr.. Norton's 11-year-old Visitor
From Tifin, Ohio.
New York WorldJ

ANtN eOIk w OElu.y
esWashington-A bit of human freight,
properly tagged, presented itself at the
house of representatives Thursday and
asked the dOorkeeper TO send its card
to Representative James 4. Norton of
Ohio. The doorkeeper asked the boy
for the freight happened to be of this
gender-tO wait a moment, but he in
sisted that his card be taken at once.
In a few moments Representative Nor
ton appeared and looked about for his
visitor. He asked the boy who he was
and what he wanted. The lad nodded
in the direction of tag suspended
about his neck by a bit of Irvine, and
the astOnished congressman read upon
the bit of brass:
This boy is on his way to visit the
Hon. James \. Norton at Washington.
Push him along,"
Before Mr.. Norton could recover his
breath the boy explained that his name
was Walter Koch of Tiffin, o., the city
in which Mr.. Norton resides. and that
he was the son of Mr.. J. c. Koch, a
druggist, and political friend of Mr..
Norton.
Walter is bright lad, IL years old,
and was willing enough to discuss his
journey, but when asked why he left,
who tagged him, and what his visit
meant he became very uncommunica-
tive. He said that he left Tftiin Tues
day evening and came through to
Washington without a layover, except
to get his meals. He had not a penny
in money but was we'll dressed and
had no complaint to make about his
treatment. From Tiffin he Travelled by
the Big Four road to Shelby, o., and
simply showed his tag to the conduc-
Ors when they came to collect the tick
cts, and was promptly pushed along
At Shelby he was switched on TO the
Baltimore 6 Ohio, and made the jour-
ney to Washington by that road. He
said the passengers We're very good to
him, and that ne had more invitations
to dine than he could accept.
Representative Norton is nonDlussed
by the visit of the strange human
package and does not attempt to ex-
plain it in any way. The probabilities
are, however. that the boy, who is well
known IN his native town, expressed
a desire to go to Washington and some
local wag, who knew of the friendship
of the lads father for Mr.. Norton,
tagged him and started him on his
way. Mr. Norton has provided for him
until he can communicate with the
boys parents. and Thursday evening.
Walter, minus his tag, took in the
sights of the capital.
