ALASKAN CODE BILL.
Passed by the Senate Without Mining
Amendments.

Washington, May 1.-The Senate to-
day passed the Alaskan code bill and
took up the army appropriation bill.
Mr.. Stewart OF Nevada offered an
amendment to the army bill providing
that nothing in the Foraker amend
ment to the last army bill should pre-
vent the landing Of a cable in Cuba. 1t
went out on a point Of order.
Before the vote was taken on the
Alaskan code bill. Mr.. Carter. in
charge Of the measure. said it had be-
come evident that further effort to
press the pending amendments relat-
ing to the location of mining claims
would result in the defeat Of the bill.
He therefore asked unanimous consent
that sections " and 70 Of the bill and
all amendments thereto, including his
own. be withdrawn. The request vas
granted and the bill passed.
