Mr.. Turley went on to argue that the

duty in choosing a Senator somebody else
should perform that duty. Far better"
he continued, would it be for the safety
of tho Republic to establish the doctrine
firmly and forever that il the Legislature
of State willfully and deliberately falls to
perform the duty Of electing Senator that
State shall go unrepresented.'
After a long legal, constitutional. and
pathological argument in support Of his po-
sition, Mr.. Turley said:
Better that this Senate have many
vacant seats than have these disgraceful
legislative contests that are now SO COM
mon. Far better for the welfare Of the
country and the safety of the Republic
that every State be notified. in language
that cannot be mistaken. that its perma

lature who will do their duty, and lot be

illegitimate or corrupt motive. Let it be
once understood that vacancy of this
kind (when the Legislature has had an
opportunity to fill IT. will not be filed IL
the Legislature fails to DO its duty in
that regard.
Mr. Hawley called Mr.. Turkeys atten-
ton to the fact that notwithstanding that
according to his statements there has for
seventy-fve years been an unbroken pre-
cedent that Governor should not fill by
appointment a vacancy that existed dur
ing the session OF the Legislature, the
number of instances in which Legislatures
which have failed to elect has become
greater each year.
Mr. Turley replied that in his opinion.
without that precedent. the number would
have been still greater. He was proceed
ing with the subject of the precedent which
the Senate has established in cases OF this
nature. when. at 2 O'Clock, the unfinished
business-the Hawaiian biIl-was laid be-
fore the Senate.
Mr. Turley yielded the floor and said
that he would conclude his remarks today.
Mr. Hoar asked unanimous consent that
the Quay case be taken up at the conclu-

members of Congress who are eminent
legal authorities on the precise terms Oh
those treaties, say that such is not the
case, and that this provision is in no sense
synonymous with that suggested in the
way OF bountics upon our exports Ihls
assurance enables us to so safeguard the
provisions of the bill as to make 1t i'm
possible-as it is in any event quite un-
likely under the peculiar conditions of our
foreign trade-for empty ships to be run
only for the purpose OF earning the COM
pensation. Moreover, this provision is eX-
pected constantly to stimulate our export
trade.
by placing a limit Of expedture in any

the compensation to all vessels participat-

see what we do: We make it impossible
for any type of ship to receive especial IA

class of trade or route by any one line
or by any especial type OF vessel. Should

ADMIRAL DEwEY's CLAIMS.
A Decision in the Prize Money Gas.
Reached.


Justice Weldon announced in the Court
of Claims yesterday that decision had
been reached in the claim of the members
of the force composing the squadron COM
manded by Admiral Dewey at the battle of
Manila Bay The announcement made by
the court does not cover all the claimants,
but is thorough in so far as it goes. and
denies to the Admiral and his men the
prize money for which they contend. on
the basis that the Spanish fleet destroyed
was not a more powerful force than that
OF the United States.
The decision in effect is that the claim
aats will be entitled to 800 for each m. n
in the Spanish fleet, instead of s2o9 for
each man. which is contended for.
II is held, In the opinion of the court,
that the shore batteries, torpedoes and
mines in the harbor cannot be taken into
consideration in estimating the strength
CT an enemy in a naval action. and since it
was upon the assumption that these de-
fences formed a part of the strength of the
enemy at the time OF the destruction of
the feet by Dewey's squadron, the claim
is held to be baseless.
The decision of the court has not yet
been fled but the full text will be ready
for publicity in few days. In the argu-
ment before the court much law was
quoted to show that the forces of an enemy
included all defences. OF whatever nature,
and it was held by the claimants that the
mines. torpedoes. and shore batteries were
as much part of the enemy's squadron
at the time of the battle as il they had
been vessels OF war.
The decision of the court will not be ac-
eepted as final by the attorneys for the
claimants without a strong fight. The
matter involves a large sum, and an ap-
peal to the Supreme Court will be taken
before the case is finally settled.

CONTRACTOR KELLOGG RETURNS

Months Ago.

Edgar C. Kellogg. forty-eight years of
age, the contractor and builder whose sud-
den disappearance from his home in this
city on November 81 last caused apprehen-
sion among his friends. is reported to have
returned to his residence at 1912 North

seen last night by reporters. At his home
on North Capitol Street it was stated that
he had retired early and had nothing to
say for publication. Mrs. Kellogg was
equally reticent.
The sudden departure of Mr.. Kellogg
from this city was the subject for an in
vestigation by the Police Department. T Is
was undertaken at the request of his wife
and family, who, it was stated, were ignor-
ant of his whereabouts.
Two thousand circulars were prepared
by the police and mailed to all important
points in the country. They contained a
minute description of the missing man. and
requested Information regarding him.
These were sent out at the solicitation OF
his family, but until his unexpected return
last week the police were without kroxl-

AN APPEAL FROM PORTO RICO.
A Petition for Free Trade Trnus-
mitted to the Senate

mIttt0 IN she senate.
Secretary Rool yesterday transmitted to
the Senate letter from General Davis,
Military Governor of Porto Rico. enclosing
petitions from several hundred tobacco
merchants, growers, and manufacturers,
asking for free trade relations with the
United States so that some market may
be found not only for the surplus crops
of 1898 and 1899. but also for the matur-
ing crop Of 1900. The surplus referred TO
amounts to about 1850 600 pounds, and
the maturing crop is estimated at 1000, coo
pounds.
Under date of February II. General Davis
says that he has very fully stated in fire.
quent reports TO the Department, the
gravity Of the industrial situation. He
cannot, he adds, in any words at his com
mand, overstate the urgency and gravity
of the industrial paralysis now existing
in the island. Nne-tenths of the usual
export of coffee had been destroyed, the
tobacco crop was hardly half the average.
with 10 market for it; the cane crop
was only three-fourths the average. The
island had no credit. impcrtations had
fallen of more than one-half business was
at a standstill, and one-tbird the popula-
ton were paupers.
THE only available remedy for the in
dustrial conditions l can suggest says
General Davis, lis the opening of markets
for accumulated surplus of productions
and the establishment of such trade con-
ditions. by Congressional legislation, as
will give confidence to investors and en-
courage the development of the natural
resources. Until this is done the paraiy-
sis must continue, and the poor and help
less in increasing numbers must be fed
