THE HOUSE A DAY BEHIND.
Effect of the Action of the Senate 1
AdjOurninx Before Noon.

A0JOufnlnx before noon.
Statesmen going from the Senate to the
House pass from today into yesterday. The
failure of the House to adjourn the legisla-
tive day of the 9Th before IL o'clock con-
tlnues the House in session in tho legisla-
tive day of yesterday. Thus the Senate.
which adjourned before II and recoEvened
at noon is in the Legislative day Of the 9th,
and the House Ia q day behind.
This. ss the Speaker Of the House has
ruled, does not interfere with the adjourn
ment Of Congress under the resolution of
the House II adopted by tho Senate. but it
may prove troublesome in the courts some
time or other.
It is held in law that the courts cannot
go behind the journal Of legislative body.
The House journal, to be accurate, must
bear the date Of the legislative day Of the
9th.
Acts approved by the President today will
be dated as approved on the 9th. BY the
journal Of the House 1t may be shown that
that body was not in session on that date,
but adjourned in the legislative day of the
5th and did not again meet.
II the courts should in this case adhere
to the uniform decisions that the journal
must be accepted in evidence without cues
ton the suggestion Is made that 1t might
invalidate on this technicality all acts ap-
proved on the 9Th.

The condemnation proceedings provided
for in the bill authorizing the Metro
politan railway to extend its lines up
old 10th street. which was signed
by the President today. are prescribed In
q manner that, 1t Is believed will meet the
difficulties better than the old law which
were developed In the Court of Appeals.
The Jury Is to assess the abutting prop
erty to the railroad and the District Of Co
lumbda to pay for the widening Of Columbia
road and 10Th street.
If the jury should assess the abutting
property less than one-half Of this cost the
Commissioners, in their discretion, may set
aside the verdict and order a new condem-
nation proceeding. The amount of the cost
to be assessed against the District Is to be
determined by the jury.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 6-Judge Nor
row. in the United States circuit court to-
day on the complaint made In the name Of
Jew Ho, granted an order temporarily re-
straining the board of health and chief of
police from prohibiting the surgeons en-
ployed by the Chinese to care for their sick
and to examine their dead entering the
quarantine lines. The health board was
also ordered to appear in court on Thurs
day with its witnesses, to show cause why
1T should not be permanently enjoined from
interfering with the physicians employed by
the Chinese.
The board must also show cause for the
denial Of the application of the Chinese. for
an order commanding them either to pro-
vide for the sustenance of those imprisoned
by the quarantine or to grant the quaran-
tined their liberty.
Owing to the quarantine, the prices of all
kinds of food have nearly doubled in China
town. The available supply of rice. 1t is
said, has been cornered by few Chinese
merchants.

MAJ. MARCH AT CANDON

having traveleds251 miles IN the noun
tains. during which they suffered greatly
from hunger. OF the fifty horses which
started with the battalion, thirteen sur
vived. The remainder died on the march
or fell into canyons. The battalion practi-
cally collapsed at Plat, thirty miles from
Tuguearao. as the result of fevers and ex-
haustfon. Eighty-sevep of the men were
conveyed from Plat to Muguegaro in bull
carts, and those falling on the way were
carried in filters by the Igerrots with the
column. -
The officers accompanying Major March
were Capts- Henry L. Jenkinson and Ed
ward Davis. Lieuts. Carroll Power and
Frank l.. Case and ,Dsctor John o. Green
walt, assistant surgeon. They say 1t Is all
guesswork as to whether Aguinaldo was
shot; Before the Americans struck Sagat
parties of then, following different trails.
The officer shot was perhaps Aguinaldo's
secretary or adjutant. The report among
the natives OF the region is that Aguinaldo
was wounded In the shoulder.
The papers secured show that nearly all
the presidents installed by the Americans
in Gen. Youngs territory are treacherous
and have been making regular reports to
Aguinaldo for the disposition and move
ments of the American troops, and they
have been collecting and forwarding taxes.
The captured papers also prove the dis
loyalty of the native telegraph operators
whom the Americans retained on the Cay
agan Valley line.
When Tirona surrendered the Filipino
forces In that section these operators pro-
fessed loyalty and took the oath of allie
glance. But 1t is now shown that they had
been sending Aguinaldo copies of important
teIegrams exchanged between the American
officials.
Letters were also found relating to large
contributions forwarded to Aguinaldo from
Spanish and other foreign business men.

CHEERS FOR GEN. GOMEZ.
Mass Meeting and Procession in His
Honor I'm Havana.


HAVANA, June GA mass meeting and
procession were held in honor of General
Maxine Gomez last night and were a great
success. Several thousands we're in line,
which ..ncluded four bands of music and a
long torchlight procession. General Gomez
was received with marked enthusiasm by
the crowd. who seemed to be more bent on
cheering than listening to the general. who
made short address in which he said that
the people could rest assured that their
wishes for absolute independence would
soon be gratified.
The registration list for Havana shows
that very few of the inscribed voters be-
long to the army. 1t also demonstrates
that those having property interests have
not paid attention to registration. the pro-
portion being about six to one between nom
holders and holders of property. Nearly all
of those who have inscribed their names
can read and write.
