THE ROOT ARMY BILL.
Discussed at a Caucus of Democratic
Representatives.

Representative Hull, Chairman of the
Committee on Military Affairs, yesterday
introduced the Root Army bill in the
House. The bill was referred to the Com
mittee on Military Affairs, and when per-
iected will, with certain amendments. be
reported to the House and placed on the
calendar. The bill. it is said. will be con-
sidered under special order and passed
before the holiday recess.
The Democratic members of the House
held d caucus yesterday afternoon on the
bill. After the caucus it was admitted that
the call was somewhat premature. as the
bill had not been reported from the Com
mittee on Military Affairs and few of the
members present had any opportunity of
learning the nature of the measure which
the Republicans propose to submit. On
this account, for as much as any other rea-
son, the caucus adjourned without taking
any action whatever
Representative Hay. who is the leading
Democratic member on the Committee on
Military Affairs and at whose suggestion
the caucus was held offered a resolution
that it was the sense of the caucus that
the army should be maintained in statu
quo fer two years longer. He reported
his proposition by saying that it was rot
his intention to agree with the Republi-
cans, but to obtain the best terms pos
sible. Representative Kleberg of Texas
pointed out that by accepting even a con-
tinuance OF the army at it's present force
for two years longer, the Democrats we're
countenancing an unjust war and further
ing the projects of the Administration
for the subsection of the Filipnos and it
would be far more Democratic to fight
all propositions to increase the army,
whether of a temporary or of a Derma-
nent nature. than to agree to Mr. Hays
resolution.
Representative Davis of Florida moved
to amend the motion by making the ex-
tension for one year. proposition was
made that the Democrats oppose any bill
the Republicans might submit, but this
did not meet with much favor. as the
members did not like to commit them
selves in 'adtGrce. 1t being evident that
the discussion would be extended and lit
tie desire being shown for definite action
motion to adjourn was carried
The House Committee on Military At
fairs will meet today and it is expected
the bill will be perfected and reported to
the House tomorrow. Many changes will
be made. especially in the part of Mr.

The message from the President was an
nounced directly after the call to order
at o'clock, and its reading was at once
entered upon by Reading Clerk Lampson.
Comparatively few members were in their
seats, and the public galleries were about
one-third occupied. The diplomatic and
executive galleries were vacant.
Members followed the reading by means
of printed copies of the message which
had been distributed when the document
was delivered to the House. During the
reaulng the order in the galleries and on
the moor was only moderate. A large per-
ceh'aSe OF the visitors were women. mere
was a constant movement of pages and
other employees. and there was consider
able shifting of position among the mem
beys.
Inc real ling of the message was inter-
rupted to receive message from the Sen
ate announcing the death of Senators Gear
OF Iowa and Davis of Minnesota. and of
'he Senate's adjournment as mark of
respect to the memory of the deceased.
AT the conclusion of the reading of the
message there was gentle ripple of ap
pause, ana on motion of Mr.. Payne the
message and accompanying documents
were referred to the Committee of the
Whole House on the State of the Union.
Resolutions expressing the profound
sorrow OF the House at the announcement
OF the death of Representatives John
hofecker of Delaware and William d. DAILY
OF New Jersey were agreed to; also SINH
lar resolutions regarding the death of
senators John Henry Gear OF Iowa and
Cushman Kellogg Davis of Minnesota.
!hough generally understood that the adj
1ournment of the House was as a tribute
10 the memory of deceased members of
congress, the adjournment was ordered
on the Davis resolution offered by Mr.
Tawney.

small but tidy bunch of roses. Oddly
enough the desk of Senator Depew was

Senator Jones of Arkansas was remem-
bered by his friends with small bas-
ket of roses. bearing a printed card.
In his opening prayer Chaplain Milburn
referred feelingly to the death of Senators
Gear and Davis, saying. in part:
And yet, as our psalm of thanks crises.
we pause as We remember the irreparable
loss to this body and to the country at
large in the departure of two members CT
the Senate. When We recall the lity
years of public service of Mr.. Gear. We
stand with unspeakable grief. And only
the other day We viewed the new-jnaie
grave of the brilliant the noble, the nn-
tiring Senator from Minnesota. His ge-
Mus. labor. and devotion to his country
have drawn our love and made our sense
of sorrow great. Let Thy consolation
come to his wife, OH Lord, and to us all.
May we walk more reverently before
Thee"
At the conclusion of the prayer the roll
was called and a quorum being present,
the Senate proceeded to business. Sena-
tor Proctor presented the credentials of
W. G. Dillingham;, who was elected to fill
the vacancy caused by the death Of the
late Justin Morrill,. Senator Proctor ac-
companied his colleague TO the clerks
desk when the oath was administered.

sented a resolution that a committee be
appointed to wait on the President and in
form him that the Senate was in session.
Mr.. Hoar presented a resolution that

act with like committee appointed by
the House. The President pro tempore ap

took recess of forty minutes.
At Las o'clock the Senate was called to
order and a message was received from
the House stating that that body had
ganized and was ready TO proceed with
business.
