to the ministers. 1t fully complies
with the punishments originally de-
manded, except in the cases of Chao
Chu Chiao, and Wing Men who are

Senator Morgan denounced the &C
ton of the republican majority in
bringing into the senate at this time
propositions Of so faT-reaching a char
acJer as those relating to the Philip
pines and Cuba. 1t was, he said
most important and dangerous move
ment and as ne and the large body on
his side of the chamber believed in
direct conflict with the constitution.
THE action of the majority"
he declared, lis despotism in
the history of this country"
At great length Senator Morgan dis
cussed the constitutional phases of the
Philippine question. He insisted there
was no war in the Philippine islands.
In the course of his discussion of the
Philippine question, Senator Morgan
referred in terms of high praise to
the work of the Taft commission and
to the government which had been es-
| tablished in the islands. Without the
| completion of his speech, Senator
| Morgan yielded at $780, in order that
| the senate might recess until evening.
In the House.
The house yesterday jettisoned au-
| thorizations for two battleships and
| two cruisers which were in the naval
| appropriation bill as it passed that
body. The senate had rejected the
| proposition and, against the appeals
of the house conferees, the house yes.
| terday voted by a big majority to
agree to the senate amendment strik
| ing out the authorizations. Chairman
Cannon of the appropriations commit
tee contributed largely to this result
by a vigorous speech in favor of the
ference report of the naval bill was
agreed to and the bill went back to the
| conference. The house also agreed
to the conference report of the bill tC
| create a commission of five to adiudi
| cate the claims of Unluou States citi
Zens against Spain assumed by the
United States under the treaty OF
Paris. Just before adjournment, Mr.
Tawney, chairman of the st. Louis
exposition committee, asked unani
nous consent to ulsagree to the sen
ate amendments to the exposition bill
but Mr.. Shepherd of Texas objected
The senate resolution to donate Ger
tain letters of early governors of Iowa
now in the interior department to the
state of Iowa was adopted.
Senator Morgan resumed his speech
at the night session. He spoke tive
hours and then stated he expected tC
resume his speech today Senator
Pettus moved adjournment, but on q
yea and nay vote. the motion was de
feated. The senate's refusal to ad
journ compelled Senator Morgan tC
continue his speech. He said the sen
ate was determined to force an ole
man to go on with his speech, "but,
he added, speaking with impressive
deliberation, Il had rather leave this
chamber a dead man than leave it {

UNITED STATES LIBRARIES.
RspiA Growth anA UasxesllsA Meth.

b. Statistics.

The latest report on the subject Of
public libraries, just issued by the
United States bureau OF education.
bears testimony to the fact that the
libraries OF this country, compara-
lively young as 1t is. are making rapid
progress. and a. methods OF popular
education are now unexcel!cd by those
Of the old world. The statistics cited
in the report are eloquent In their sug-
gestiveness, says the Chicago Tribune.
There are now $3.50 public libraries
containing more than, 1000 volumes
each. S,s7S having 800 volumes and
over. but less than 1000. while many
thousands have fewer than 800 vol
umes each. The total number Of vol
umes in oil these public libraries hav-
ing over 800 volumes each Is 46.6l0. 500.
In Ave years the gain has been In H.
braries. 2.077; volumes, IL. 2.0l4.25l. The
circulating libraries last year issued
over $4,000, 900 volumes. Add to this
great accumulation and output Of
books the correspondingly large pri-
vate reference libraries of scholars
and collections OF rare and curious
books. like that. for instance. made by
the late John Fiske, and the sum total
will demons,rate that the American
people are not wholly given over to
the pursuit Of the dollar. but have NJ
eraPy ambitions and intellectual At
tAiuments in the book line quite equal
to the older communities OF the world.
II the report Of the United States
bureau of education were brought
down to date II would show still more
astonishing figures than those above
quoted. II would show that In money
contributions and in gifts Of books and
pamphlets money value of more than
$l6,oo0. 900 was added 10 the library
fund OF the country. II would also
show that Mr.. Carnegie's munificence
10 spreparing the way for still greater
increase in the number OF libraries and
their endowment. In 1899 he gave
H,3oa. 500 for 81 libraries, in 1900 $685.
900 for 10 libraries. and in 1901 TO date
Sl2.l+s.soo for ss libraries, a total for
the three years OF sls,2o7. 900 for l3o
libraries. all Of which. with one or two
exceptions. are new. Such liberslky
as this has had and will continue 70
have . stimulating effect upon 9th
srs. a. has been shown in the numer-
Gus instances where wealthy men have
erected libraries in their native places
as memorials OF themselves or Of some
Of their family. These quiet bu; po-
tent influences are leavening the whole
lump of American life. The public IL
braries show that the American peo-
pie. and particularly the working peo-
pie, have the reading hsbi, quite a.
much ~ the dollar habit. and the i'm
mense catalogue OF private libraries ON
special subjects, recently compiled in
Germany, shows that American schol-
arship. particularly in original re-
search. already ranks with that OF tho
old world.

President NJ. M. Parker Talks.

"The territorial legislature has made warm friends with the univer- sity and other educational institutions this session" said President NJ. NJ. Parker, of the university this morn ing. With few exceptions the terri torial legislatures have always treat ed the educational interests well, but in the present instance they have ex- ceeded former sessions.
 "The university authorities are highly pleased with the treatment ac- corded the institution" he continued, "as the appropriations will tend to make.it possible to meet the expan- sion that is now in progress. The legislature has passed bills this year over the committee On education to meet the actual needs of the institu- tion. Such action caused no little qualification as the current funds of the university are not adequate, and the extra appropriations are God send.
 The institution is advancing stead fly in standard and in attendance New men have been added as occasion demanded so that now special work in several lines not heretofore possi. ble is offered in many branches. The engineering course is much strength ened.
