 "Congressman Amos J. Cummings told of the history of British aggression fin South Africa. beginning with the taking of Cape Colony in trust. when Napoleon took Hol- land, and the refusal to give it back to the Dutch after Napoleon's defeat. "She hated Napoleon,' said he, "but was willing to pick up the scraps that he left" He re- ferred to Chamberlain's recent change of front, and added: chamberlain Is a liar and that is not putting it bit too strong for three years ago he said the same things that I have told you tonight"
 While he was telling how England had gone to all of her colonies for help in this war, somebody yelled out In the audience And she'll go to Ireland for some more"
 "She had some from Ireland and the Boers disposed of them" replied Mir. Cum mings, and the Irish in the hall cheered.
 Congressman Cummings blamed Ambas- sador Choate, among others, for the exist ing situation of affairs, as far as the posi- tionIof the United States Is concerned.

THE HOUSE

Washington, December 31.LThe coming week in the house does not give promise of much business. The committees have not yet begun active work and there has not been any legislation of pressing im- portance reported.
 The appropriations committee has not yet considered the urgent deficiency bill, al- though the measure has been prepared. This bill may be brought in during the week if there should be a request from the executive department asking it's early passage. As the bill will carry nearly fifty millions of dollars for the army, most of which is on account of the Philippines, it is quite likely that there will be consider able discussion of the proposed policy while the measure is before the house There are some minor matters, such as provision for clerks and routine manage ment of house affairs that are to be passed upon.
