Officials Have Serious Trouble With
the Traffic.

the Traffic.
Topeka, Kan, Dec. 9.-Considerable
difficulty attended the operation of the
Santa Fe trains today. Announcement
was made last night by the officials
that all trains would run on time, and
that all kinds of freight would be han
died in the usual quantities All the
trains were run on time card sched
ules.
The troubles commenced this morn
ing when the California limited train
No. I came in from the west four hours
late. When the train reached EmpOria
it was confronted with the strike con-
ditions to such an extent that it was
held up for some time, awaiting orders
None came. and the train started.
When it reached the first small station
the danger signal was out, and it had
to stop. The process was repeated at
all the small stations between EN-
pOria and Topeka The limited never
stops at the small stations under or
binary conditions. The officials were
much chagTined to find that their IA
vOrite train had lost so much time.
No. 2, another California train, due
in Topeka at 2:S0, was seriously de-
layed and the officials of the road did
not know exactly where to look for it..

on time Instead of being long dis

uaIIy is, it cOnsiste4 of only three
coaches, and was pulled by two en-
Eines. This was done to preclude the
possibility of any delay, as it is a
matter of the utmost Importance that
all trains run as nearly to the time
limit as possible. It received no clear
auce at any station.
All the trains from the east were
from one to three hours late, the Chi
cago train being the latest. Travel to-
day has been unusually light. The
AtchisOn train, which Is usually crowd
ed with passengers on Sunday, had
only fifteen today. People were afraid
to travel on account of the possibility
of accidents.
The fast mail service west was all
right this morning, and the rOadmen
hope the same onditions will prevail
tomorrow morning. They will not eX-

ton of today in which the statement was made that a combination of Senators had been formed to press certain claims now pending before the Senate The publication asserted that the combination had deter mined upon the passage of those claims, even though an extra session of Congress was forced in the effort.
 MT. Money declared that so far as he knew. no such combination existed. He never had heard of such a combination, and was satisfied there was no desire on his side of the chamber to press claims beyond their merits. He disclaimed any intention to delay action upon any measure pending before the Senate.
 At 1:20 p. m., on motion of MT. Lodge, Massachusetts, the Senate went into execu- tive session to resume consideration of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and at 4:45 p. m. adjourned, after having reached an agree ment to vote on the Hay-Pauncefote treaty next Thursday, beginning with the votes on the amendment at 3 o'clock in the after noon.

Pauncefote treaty. MT. Chandler of New Hampshire created little furry by en- deavoring again to get up the resolution relating to the Montana senatorial case. The effort was futile. No legislative busl- ness aside from the purest routinne was transacted
 The Montana senatorial case was brought again to the attention of the Sem ate by an inquiry of MT. Chandler, chair man of the Committee on Privileges and Elections, as to whether the committee on contingent expenses was ready to re- port back the resolution authorizing the Committee on Privileges and Elections-to send for persons and papers in the inves- tigation of the right of w. A. Clark and Martin Maginnis to a seat in the Senate.
 MT Gallinger of New ampshire explained that no action had been taken by the com- mittee because of the absence of the chair man, MT. Jones of Nevada and also of Mir Jones of Arkansas.
 MT. Chandler said he thought the Senate had a right to an early report from the committee and said he would be glad to know what had influenced members of the committee to delay action. This aroused MT. Jones of Arkansas, who questioned the right of any Senator to demand the reasons which might influence the action of a member of any committee. He could not understand why MT. Chandler should seek to punish him and intimated that MT. Chandler must have some personal inter est in the resolution.
 MT. Chandler said there was no use for the member on contingent expenses to put on any disguise. It was perfectly evident that no such treatment had ever before been given a resolution of the character of that pending
 The matter finally went over.

QUESTION BEFORE
 SUPREME COURT Whether the Constitution Fol-

 the United States.
CASES HAVE BEEN TAKEN UP

Washington, December 17.-In the United States Supreme Court today argument was begun in two cases, the decision in which is expected to fix the status of Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands and other insu- lar possessions acquired through the war with Spain with respect to the United States proper; to say whether their people are citizens and indicate whether the con stitution follows the flag.
 One of the cases Is that of John H. Goetz, who in June, 1899, imported from Porto Rico a quantity of leaf tobacco into the United States through the port of New York and protested against the assess ment of duty on the importation, claiming that the tobacco was not subject to duty because "Porto Rico at the time of the importation was not foreign country and because, therefore, the imposition of duties upon goods from a place within the terri tory of the United States into a port of the United States is not lawful and valid under the constitution"
 The collector of the port and the board of general appraisers both ruled against him, as did the United States Circuit Court for the southern district of New York when Goetz took the case before that tribunal. From the opinion of that court the impor- ter appealed to the United States Supreme Court

Other Cases Cited.


 A large number of cases were cited 10 Supreme Court on analogous issues in the maintained, established that the prohibi- the government of the territory of the United States. The other chief points ad- vanced in behalf of the appellant were: -''The treaty of Paris is now open to con- struction that it provides for the govern ing of Porto Rico without regard to con- stitutional limitations and as country for eign to the United States. If it were pos- sible to place that construction upon the treaty the provision would be void as con- trary to the constitution, but this would not in any way prevent or affect the &C., complishment or the usual results of an- neXation.
 If the tariff act imposes duty or tax upon goods brought from Porto Rico to a place elsewhere in the United States after the annexation, the imposition is void as being in conflict with an express provision of the constitution
 ''When the treaty of Paris took effect Porto Rico ceased to be a foreign coun- try within the meaning of those words as used in the tariff act"
 MT. Perkins argument was in progress when, at 4:30 p. m., the court adjourned until tomorrow, when MT. Perkins will continue and the other counsel will be heard.
 The five hours on each side which the court has allowed will extend the hearing through tomorrow and part of the next day, if all of the time is occupied.

 MT. Brown rehearsed the main features as to the cession of Porto Rico, with the circumstances ot the enactment of the tar if law of 1897 and the imposition of the du- ties on the goods of GoetZ. The main con- tentions he said, were that Porto Rico was not foreign country" as contemplated by the tariff act, and that Porto Rico was within the United States, so that an impost duty against the goods of Porto Rico would be in violation of the constitutional pro- vision that all articles, imposts and ex- cises shall be uniform throughout the United States.
 MT. Brown remarked that the counsel who had opposed this view had maintained that torto Rico was a part of the United States only in a Pickwickian sense. It was con- ceded, he said that 'the people of the United States constituted an absolute sov- ereign nation; that the power to declare and carry on war has been delegated by the people to it's constitutional agents, and this includes the power to occupy foreign ter while 1t remains foreign territory, subject only to the rules and usages of civilized warfare under international laws"
 It was also conceded, MT. Brown said, that the people had delegated the power to add permanent acquisition to its territory
 MT Perkins followed, taking up more par ticularly the constitutional phases of the cases He maintained that the constitution was in effect a power of attorney and said the question was as to what those powers were.
 The metaphor as to the constitution fol- lowing the flag MT. Perkins regarded as equivalent to saying that a mans shadow followed him. The first constitutional point urged by MT. Perkins was that "the claim of unlimited power in new territories is opposed to our entire theory of consti- tutional government"
