MANY MATTERS OF MOMENT

Washington. June when thu
senate convened at II O'Clock today
the confefees OF the naval appropria
ton bill were still in session.
On motion Of Cockrell, the senate
began the consideration of private pen
sion bills. Fifty-eight such bills were
passed.
An Intellectual attempt was made by
Chandler. of New Hampshire, to OBJ
tain consideration of his resolution
instructing the committee on elec-
tions to inquire into the constitution
ality of the electoral laws of certain
states. Berry, of Arkansas, and Pet
tus of Alabama, simultaneously OBJ
jected. At 11:45 the senate took a re.
cess for an hour.
Washington, June THE conferees
on the naval appropriation bill de-
cided to report a disagreement after a
session of two hours. The conferees
express confidence, however, of being
able to conclude the controversy If
another meeting is ordered. Repre-
sentatives of both houses were willing
to make mutual concessions and in
reality an agreement practically was
reached. The agreement eliminates
all the inland and coast work, con-
fines the survey to the ocean, elimi.
mating all reference to lakes and to
photographic surveys and reduces
the 100000 appropriated of the SEN
ate amendment to $4,000. This COM
promise is said to be satisfactory to
the superintendent of coast and geo
detic survey.
Washington, June 7-At 12:45 Hale
reported further disagreement on
the naval appropriation bill and moved
that the senate insist upon its amend.
ment. The report and motion were
agreed to. The senate took a recess {

At noon the legislative day Of Thurs
day began. Many members who
counted upon final adjournment yes
terday. had already left for their homes
and there was danger of quorum fail
ing. Leaders on both side could with
difficulty persuade members to remain.
A bill was passed to amend the car
coupler law so as to require railroads
to report monthly, under oath, to the
interstate commerce commission, all
accidents to their employees, and make
reports as to all collisions between
trains.
Cannon, on behalf of the conferees
Of the naval appropriation bill, formal
ly reported another disagreement and
moved that the house recede and con-
cur in the senate amendment, with
the amendment which struck out the
word photographs" and provided for
ocean surveys, including the waters of
Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Philippines
except the coasts thereof. Dayton,
Of West Virginia, one of the super
seeded conferees, moved to recede and
concur in the senate amendment. This {
motion took precedence over that of
Cannon. Dayton's motion carried. II

GENERAL EGAN RETIRED.
to BE Head of the Commits
sary Department..

Washington, Dee. THE pr sident
closed the unsavory Egan-Miles eri-
sode by restoring General Charles p
Egan, the suspended commissay
general. to the active list and imme
diately retiring him undgr authority
of the law permitting the retirement
of officers after 30 years of active
service. Egan was practically forced
on the retired list under threat that
if he did not retire now the president
would see to it that. vll1n the time
came for his restoration to active
service he should be held off until
after the arrival of the time for his
retirement on account of age.
An officer under sentence of sus.
pension cannot be retired hence the
effectiveness of this argument BY
going on the list now, Egan loses
one-fourth of his pay of 5000 for
four years. the remainder of the time
he was to have remained suspended
The pressure brought on Egan was
not for the purpose of Furnishing him
still further for the offense against
General Miles. but for the purpose of
correcting a fragrant injustice to Col
onel Jack Weston, the acting com
missary general. who has been doing
the work of brigadier general for
the pay OF a colonel. who will, it is
expected he promoted to the place.
Weston would have retired before
Egans suspension came to an end, SO
there was double reason for forcing
Egan out. Colonel Weston's appoint
ment to be commissary general will
be made in few days.

NON-SUIT FOR WANAMAKER
The Plaintiff May Have the Case Taken
to the Supreme Court.

Beaver, Pa. Dee. Judge J. Sharp
Wilson overruled his own decision
and granted II non-suit in the fa-
nous Islander case of Thomas Robin
son against John Wanamaker The
plaintiff then made motion that
the non-suit be taken off the record,
and the court entertained it for ar
gument. 1t will probably be argued
some time nexts month, and the case
then taken to the supreme court.
Pittsburg. Dec. Former Post
master General John Wanamaker,
Ex-Governor Daniel III. Hastings,
Judge Gordon and G. III. Bergner ar
rived in Pittsburg from Beaver and
went to the Hotel Lincoln.
Speaking of the outcome of the
suit against him for SANDER Mr.
Wanamaker said it was a victory for
the free press and free speech, and
that it gave the press and political
speakers the right to criticise public
officers.
Mr.. Wanamaker gave out the fol
lowing for publications:
THE decision of the court is in the
interests of the freedom of the news
papers and citizens to fairly discuss
public questions involving public Of
fcials and the administration of pub
nc affairs. The ruling of the dis
iinguished judge decided that free
speech in this commonwealth was
not to be barred and that actions to
succeed If brought into court, must
prove malice on the part of the news
papers. that there are privileged
statements in politics that are not
actionable'
Mr.. Wanamaker later left for Phil
adelphia.
