INCREASE OF S375,OOO.
Senator Carter Secures Additional Sum
for Public Building at Helena.

Washington, June 6.-The members of
both branches Of congress looked tired
and wan as they re-assembled this
terday-the house meeting at 8 o'clock
and the senate at 10.
While the sessions lasted practically
all night, the exciting scenes and Incl
dents of former days We're missing.
The senate held short executive ses-
sion at II: 40, after which the conference
reports on the sundry bill, the appropri-
alton, the naval academy and the gen.
eral deficiency bills were presented and
adopted
The sundry civil bill was complete
agreement, except on one item relating
to the Nevada claims.
The naval conferees We're deadlocked
on the armor plate provision.
There was complete agreement on
the deficiency bills.
The military academy bill was passed
and sent to the president.
At 2:3O this morning the senate went
into executive session after which a
recess was taken until 10 o'clock. The
house during the early hours of morning
was without a quorum until $3.50 O'Clock
Recess was then taken until O. clock
this morning. At 10 a. m, today the SEN
ate reconvened to prepare for final ad-
journment. The naval and sundry civil
appropriation bills remained in the con-
ference, all others having beeen agreed
to. The usual routine of business practi-
cally, was abandoned today Carter Sc
cured passage of the bill providing for
an increase to $4,000 of the limit of the
cost of the public building at Helena
Mont. A recess was then taken to await
the presentation of the conference re-
ports. When the senate reconvened at
1890 Allison reported a concurrent reso-
luton providing for final adjournment at
p. M, today. 1t was permitted to tenn
porarily to lie on the table. Hale pre-
sented the conference report on the naval
appropriation bill. 1t was a disagree
ment upon all questions that have
been in dispute for three or four
days. Hale explained that the armor
plate question was the great stumbling
block to the agreement No price had
been agreed upon by the conferees be-
cause the house conferees believed the
price should be left to the discretion of
the secretary of the navy.
Senator Penrose offered the following
proposition: That the secretary of the
navy is hereby authorized to procure by
contract armor of the best quality for
any or all of the vessels above referred
to, provided that such contracts can be
made at the price which Is now, in his
judgment. reasonable and equitable, but
in case he is unable to make contracts
for armor under the above conditions, he
procure a site for and to erect thereon, a
factory for the manufacture of armor
plate and the sum of $4,000. 900 is hereby
appropriated toward the erection of said
factory.

COLLISION OF THE TWO POWERS WILL RESULT CAR PER-

THE JAPANESE FLEET MOBILIZATION
SOLDIERS HAVE ENGAGEMENT WITH BOXERS AND MANY ARE
KILLED ON BOTH SIDES-B0DES OF MURDERED MIS-
Sl0NARES ARE MUTILATED AND DISEMB0WELED.

Shanghai, June 6.-The soldiers dis
patched to attack the Boxers have
fought an engagement quite close to
Pekin. Many were killed on both sides.
In consequence Of the representations of
Japan, the landing of large Russian
force at Taku is alleged to have been
stopped. 1t is believed here that should
Russia persist in sending prepondering
military force to the front, collision
with Japan will inevitably result.
Alarming reports are current here OF
the hurried completion of the mobiliza-
ton of the Japanese fleet.
The Russian minister at Pekin, NJ De
Gier, has made another attempt to in
duce the Chinese foreign office to for
mally request Russian assistance to re-
store order, but the offer has not yet
been accepted.
Violent dissentions are reported to
exist between the Chinese commander
in-chief of the forces, Jung-Lu, and
Prince ChingTuan, who, in accordance
with the wishes of the dowager empress,
is strongly supporting the cause of the
Boxers"

We're badly cut up in the adjacent broken
country. 1t is stated that 60 were killed
or wounded Some of their bodies were
recovered, frightfully mutilated.
Bands of Boxers are patrolling the
neighborhood but have not interfered
with the party of the Associated Press
representatives. All the Chinese railway
employees are deserting their posts and
troops sent to guard the stations ap-
pear to be worse than useless. A guard
of $50 sent to Feng Tai bolted at Lu Kou
Chao yesterday, when they heard Of the
trouble at Huang Tsun.
Trains cannot get through to Pek1n on
account of burning bridges.
