A TRANSPORT ADRIFT AT SEA.
The McPherson Breaks Her Propeller.
Adrfft for Four Days.

Norfolk, Va, February A.-The Unit
ed States a. my transport Mcpherson,
Commander Hutchins, was towed into
Hampton Roads this morning by the
Jamaica fruit steamer Admiral Samp-
son, which found the big transport
drifting helplessly about at sea several
hundred miles off Charleston. S. c. The
Mcpherson broke her propeller Mon
day and had a severe experience in the
storm Of last Wednesday night. She
will be brought to the Norfolk navy
yard for repairs.
The story Of the voyage and the mis-
hap of the transport were CLEANED to-
night by a representative Of the As
sociated Press from ex-Assistant Quar-
termaster c. E. Norton and Lieutenant
Macklin.
Mr.. Norton went to Cuba and Porto
Rico for the purpose Of assisting in the
exhuming and shipment to America Of
the bodies of our soldiers who died in
Cuba and Porto Rico, as the result Of
wounds, accidents and disease. He
left Gibara, Cuba, on the Mcfnerson
on February 18th for the home. The
transport had on board about 165 bod
les, sixty-five of them being bodies of
soldiers who died Of yellow fever.
When several days out Of San Juan
the Mcpherson encountered very heavy
weather and on the night Of the 21st,
her main shaft broke and left her
selpless. After four days the fruit
steamer Admiral Sampson, bound from
Jamaica, saw the Mcpherson, steamed
up and took her in tow and dropped her
off Old Point Comfort this morning Ct
s o'clock.
Major Hutchins, who is in command

ed during the storm by being thrown
against a deck house.
During the storm, after great difficult
| ty, four of the sailors succeeded in
lashing the propeller SO it would not
turn and beat the rudder post. A leg
o-mutton sail was rugged and this
gave progress enough to permit steer
| ing. On Thursday an unknown Ward
Liner came along, remained by the
| Mcpherson for three hours, then con-
| cluded the latter could get into port
without assistance and steamed away

to keep the "nigger" from voting.
After an extended discussion Of the
pending amendment without result,
Senator Tillman gave notice of an
amendment substituting the suffrage
provisions of the South Carolina con-
stitution for the suffrage provisions Of
the pending bill.
The senate at 4:45 o'clock p. m, ad-
journed.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE
Throughout the debate on the Porto
Rico bill in the house Of representa-
tives today there was an undercurrent
Of speculation on the outcome Of the
efforts to bring about united action on
the present majority members Of the
house. Frequent conferences were held
between representatives Of the vari-
Gus elements.
The debate brought out a speech by
Representative Tawney, of Minnesota,
scoring Mr.. Littlefield, of Maine, for
his speech of yesterday, and also two
speeches from the republican side, by
Mr.. Tompkins, of New York, and Mr..
Powers, Of Vermont, opposing the bill.
Mr. Thayer, of Massachusetts,, closed
the day with a defence Of the anti-im-
perialists. The other speakers were
Mr. Eddick, of Minnesota, for the bill
and Messrs. Clayton, Of Alabama, and
Brousard, of Louisiana, against it.
Mr.. Clayton, of Alabama, was the
first speaker of the day, presenting q
legal argument against thI Eli. He
maintained that the United States mil
itary forces held Porto Rico at the time
of the treaty and that the island be-
came as much a part of the United
States as the territory Of Arizona.
Mr.. Tawney, of Minnesota; a men,
ber Of the ways and means committee,
enlivened the debate by a severe ar
raignment of Mr.. Littlefield, of Maine,
for his speech of yesterday, attacking
the bill and it's promoters. What rea-
son is there" exclaimed Mr. Tawney
for the unusual and unprecedented
course of the gentleman from Maine
compelling him to leave the ranks OF
the republican party and to join the
ranks of the democratic party? Why
is it that he should exhibit the want
of decent courtesy to the ways and
| means committee and to the distin-
guished gentlemen on the floor? Car
it be the spruce lumber interests OF
| Maine who will have to pay on theil
| product entering Porto Rico SO cents
per 1000 feet? Is it the people OF
| Maine who raise their voice against
! this? No, it is the lumber baronS Of
Maine, the oppressors of the people fol
| whom the gentleman declaims so fierce
| ly."
Mr.. Littlefield listened to the speech
| but made no effort to answer.
Mr.. BrouSsard, of Louisiana, opposed
! the bill and controverted the figures
given by Mr.. Payne, particularly IL
| their reference to sugar and rice. A:
! to the latter article, he said Porto Rice
\ afforded a large market for the Amer
| lean product, which should be re-
| tanned.
