THE SENATE.

When the Senate convened today two
resolutions offered yesterday by Mr.. Petit
grew were continued until Monday
bill extending the mining laws to sa-
line lands was passed. 1t declares all I'M
occupied public lands containing salt
springs or deposits to be subject to locat ton
and purchase under the mining laws
The Senate then proceeded to the con-
sideration of the army reorganization bill.
Mr.. Proctor Wt), for the military com
mitlee, offered as amendment to section
% the provision introduced by himself yes
terday concerning vacancies in the posi- ion
of chief Of staff. The amendment was
adopted.
When the section Of the bill was reached
providing for the appointment of volunteer
officers to be officers in the regular army
an extended discussion ensued.
Mr.. Money declared there were MANY Off
GERS In the volunteer army who were as
clearly entitled, as gentlemen and officers
to commissions In the regular army us the
cadets who, by hazing and by their testi-
mony before investigating committees, "are
today disgracing the whole country at West
Point
The committee amendment providing that
volunteer officers might be appointed to sec
ond Heutenancies was disagreed to, thus
restoring the House provision that volun-
teer officers might be appointed to the
grade Of first lieutenant.
Commenting upon this part Of the bill,
Mr.. Daniel (Va) declared that he wholly
disagreed with the committee which had
drawn the bill AS to the proposition for
the appointment Of volunteer officers to the
regular army, Mr.. Daniel said: 'It looks
like q skillful piece Of engineering by a
regular army officer to keep out Of the
army many Of the brightest and best mill
tary spirits Of the country. This is the
most proscriptive bill against the volun-
teers Of this country that has ever been
presented"
Mr.. Daniel declared sarcastically that the
bill constituted beautiful welcome to the
volunteers returning from the Philippines
providing, as 1t did. that no volunteer Of
Ger could look forward to any better grade
than that Of first lieutenant in the regular
army
This Is an exclusive bill,' he declared,
provided for the purpose of being exclu-
sive. l am not in favor of turning over
the military affairs Of the country to the
regular army.
Mr.. Hawley offered from the committee
on military affairs an amendment provid-
ing that the President Of the United States
shall have authority to fix the component
parts Of the army ration. It was adopted.
Tho Bill Completed.
This completed the bill, SO far as the
committee amendments were concerned. all
other committee amendments except those
to which objection had been offered having
been agreed to-
ate proceed to the consideration Of execu-
tive business.
The motion prevailed.
After few minutes spent in executive
session business was resumed In open ses-
sion. Mr.. Platt lConn.) asked for unani-
nous consent to proceed to the considera-
ten Of a bill to ratify and confirm an
agreement with the Muscogee or Creek tr,pe
, of Indians.
Mr.. Pettigrew objected.
Mr.. Plat was urged by his colleagues to

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Washing- ron has seldom celebrated Christmas more quietly. Owing to the police reg nlations there were no noisy demon strations on the street. The depart ments were all closed, the chief off cials generally spending the day with their respective families. The White House was closed to the public. and large portion of the clerical force was excused for the day. The president put in much of the time i'll the residence part of the building. his principal at tention being given to the children of tlIe household, who were the recipients of many presents both from their par ants and from others. The smaller members generally hung their stock mgs mp Tuesday night, and all found upon awakening at an early hour that Santa Claus had been astir ahead of them and had left liberal contributions. Later in the day all assembled in the family room, where the general ex- change of presents occurred and where jolly hour was spent. The family dinner took place at 7:30 last night.
