No show for PorrI1 Bfu-oro ~ n

No show for Rouuts BiII.-One Of the
most conservative members Of the Demo-
cratic side Of the Senate said yesterday
The Payne Hanna SHiP Subsidy bill stool
no show Of getting through at this session.
It appears that MIR Han-a has tried in vain
TO get the Republican steering committee
10 give his pet measure the right Of way
and that he at last has appealed TO he
White House for ala in his determination
TO have the steering committee see the
proposition just as he does 1t is not be-
licved however that even if the Pres
dent should undertake TO dictate to the
steering committee in this matter. that
Mr Hanuas bill would fare any better.
Senator Frye, who is as heartily in favor
Of the bounty scheme as Mr.. Hanna him.
self, IS reported TO have had several con-
fsreuces recently with several members
OF the steering committee. and has learned
from them that if the bill is forced for
ward for consideration 1t Will prolong the
session indefinitely. The steering COM
mittee conceIves one Of its chief duties at
present to be to push the session through
to a speedy close. The Democrats have
determined TO string out the session to the
uttermost limit If the Hanna Payne meas
ult IS forced lbINdlu- lutN Ntl fanny
could keep Congress here until after the
Republican National Convention is held,
and as Mr.. Hanna is extremely anxious TO
get Congress of the Presidents hands
before that time. II seems that he Will lie
compelled reluctantly to yield his conten-
ton on the Ship Subsidy bill. Another
adverse influence dt work Is contained in
the attitude OF eight or ten Democrats in
the House. This number Of the minority.
all Of them representing districts directly
interested in the shipping trade. are
committed to the bounty scheme, but they
dare not vote for 1t at this session. Every
thing considered, therefore, it seems that
the chances are decidedly unfavOrable 10
action on the Payne Hanna bill at this
session. Il is expected that Mr. Hanna
will continue TO advocate the bill in ali
his pOstprandial oTatory as by that course
he Will be able TO TeassGre the sne idl
interests clamoring loulest for bounty
legislation that he is their friend. so that
he Will be on the proper terms with them
when he passes the hat for campaign con-
tributions

If We may rely upon the press dispatches
from Chicago. The reception of Admiral
Dewey in that great Western city is even
more enthusiastic than anyone would have
predicted with confidence week ago. It
also appears TO b. not without some evil
deuce OF a local feeling that the victor Of
Manila is worthy Of respectful considera-
tion as a political as well as a martial
quantity. Mr. Hanna will perhaps CON
graduate himself on having done what he
could to dampen The arior Of the Cleveland
movement 10 welcome Dewey. The Ameri-
cans are strange people. and those Of them
who are Republicans are more so. 1t need
not surprise anybody TO see a sudden
Dewey sentiment spring up among the lat
ter-among the millions who resent the
plain duty" perfly and who respect the
Constitution.

There are strong evidences that A great
deal Of unfayorable news is being sup

conclusion is that Otis has so completely
mismanaged operations against the in
surrection that il will take a competent

considerable reinforcement at that, to

Otis is out Of the archipelago. the real
truth as TO prevailing conditions may reach

the Administration alone is responsible.

Kinley from carrying such load on his

that OTIS has created by his policy and

that his late hackers can do is TO smother
the facts as well as they can until after
