WEEK IN CONGRESS.
Forecast of Plans for the Senate
and House.

Washington, Dec. 9.-The only meas
ure of Importance which the senate
has on it's calendar for the present
week is the new Hay-Pauncefote
treaty making provision for the alb
rOgation of the CIayton-Bulwer treaty
and opening the way for the unob-
structtd construction of an isthmian
canal by the United States. Acting
for the committee on foreign rela-
tious, Senator Lodge will ask the SEN
ate to go into executive session to-
day for the consideration of the
treaty and each day thereafter until
the convention is disposed of. 1t can
be said that at this time the prospect
is very strong that the treaty will be
ratified, and it now looks as if this
result would be secured after com
paratively little delay. There will be
some debate and some features of
the document will be criticised as I'M
desirable, but there is no proba bility
of captious opposition. The criticism
will be along the lines indicated by
Senator's Money and Bacon in the
committee in foreign relations at its
meeting on Friday last. No senator
thus far, however, has shown a dispo-
sitiOn to carry his objections to the
point of ultimate effort to defeat rati-
ticatiOn. The principal authors of the
criticism of the treaty are southern
senators who are, generally, very
anxious for the construction of the
canal. They find that all canal legis-
lation will be tied up until action can
be secured on the treaty, and they
are, on this account, less liable than
they otherwise would be to do any
thing to delay action upon the treaty
itself. The most active friends OF the
treaty now claim that ratification
win be secured during the present
week, and the opinion is very general
that ratification viii be obtained be-
fore the Christmas holidays.
Reciprocity TO Wait.
Beyond the consideration Of the
treaty very little business win be
undertaken before the holidays Ii
is now generally agreed that the ques-
tion of reciprocity viii 60 over until
january, probably without SO much
as being mentioned, and II may be
added that, from being for time the
subject most likely to attract atten-

ment of the condition of all. They
also announce that they will oppose
trade autonomy to the bitter end.
The miners, in their argument, say
that if handful of engineers, or
iremen, employed in a mine should
strike, it would cause the mine to be
closed, and thus throw out of work
hundreds Of men who may have no
grievances. If all trades in the mine
were united under one head, the mine
workers say much friction could be
avoided. Those who advocate trade
autonomy claim IT would he fatal for

out of his endowment. No site has
yet been selected. 1t will, however,
necessarily be very large, as it is pro-
posed to erect series of magnificent
structures.
The amount of money to be given
by Mr.. Carnegie equals the shm of the
present endowment fund of Harvard,
and is considerably more than the in.
vested fund of Yale. With the Catholic
university, the Methodist university,
and the proposed Carnegie university,
Washington will be the educational
center of the country.

American Federation Convention
Completes Organization.

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 9.-The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor completed
Sts organization Saturday, and the
real work of the convention will be
begun to-day. The official roll shows
the presence of 312 delegates, the
largest attendance in the history of
the organization. w. D. Mahon, of
Detroit, president of the Amalgama-
ted Association of Street Railway
Employees, introduced a resolution,
which was adopted, indorsing the
strike of the local street car union
against the Scranton Street Railway
company. 1t is likely that the coun-
Gil will make a substantial appropri-
alton. The men have been ON strike
for ten weeks. The company is run
ming cars regularly with nonunion
men, but the public is not patroniz-
ing the company to any extent.
Among important resolutions intro
duced Saturday were these:
Demanding municipal, state and gov
ernmental ownership Of railroads, tele-
graph lines, etc; asking woTknen TO aid
IN the requirement Of the power Of gov
eminent for the purpose Of Matchmaking
Industrial Combinations; demanding the
organization Of an independent political
party; protesting against ship subsidy
legislation; expressing sympathy for the
Beers; for the establishment Of socialism;
providing for the organization Of school
teachers; requesting woTkmeu to hold
Rloof from the militia, and indorsing the
Swiss military system
Committees at Work.
Notwithstanding that yesterday
was Sunday, many of the delegates
70 the convention of the American
Federation of Labor, now in session
In this city, did not cease their ac-
tivity the day being given up to the
transaction Of committee business.
A majority Of the committees were
organized, and not a few of them
took up questions that will engage
the attention OF the convention dur
ing the coming week. The executive
council, which is composed Of the
president, the six vice presidents, the
secretary and treasurer Of the feder-
alton, went into session early and
did not adjourn until long after noon.
The session was secret and nothing
was given out for publication.

HIGHER EDUCATION.
Mr.. Carnegie to Endow a Great
University.

washington, Dec. lU.-lne NaSnlng-
ton Post says: President Roosevelt
has received a letter from Andrew Car
negie in which the latter offers to make
a donation of $4,000, 800 to the United
States. The letter will be referred
to congress by the president in a spe-
cial message. Mr.. Carnegie's gift is
for the purpose of establishing in
Washington a university for higher
education.
The Donors Ideas.
AS far as his idea has been developed,
it proposes a gift after the manner
of the beQuest of James Smithson, the
EngIishman, who gave $1,00O,O00 for
the establishment and maintenance of
what is now known as the Smithsonian
Institution. SmithsOn desired the in
gtitution founded by him to be fac
tor in "the diffusion of scientific
knowledge" MIR. Carnegie proposes
that the university which he is to en-
dow shall be the greatest institution
in the world for the development of
higher education. He has consulted
L
university; President Hadley, of Yale;
President Eliot, of Harvard; former
President White, of Cornell, and all
The leading educators of the country.
They heartily indorse his plans. The
proposed university will not interfere
in the least with the educational in
situations already established, but will
supplement them, for, according to the
present pan, it's doors will be open to
those who desire to take up a post
graduate course. Mr.. Carnegie also
wants the new university to take the
lead in original research, so that the
United States can eventually stand
side by side with Germany. if not ex-
eel that nation in scientific develop
ment.
Government to he Trustee.
Mr. Carnegie's plan does not propose
national university in the sense that
an appropriation will be asked or need
ed. The government is Simply to be
the trustee Of the magnificent endow-
ment, just as it administers the fund
bequeathed by Smithson. 1t is prob
able that board OF regents will be
appointed as in the case Of the Smith
sonian Institution, or 1t may be that
the government will be represented
upon the board Of directors, which, it
is contemplated. shall consist Of men
Of national reputation.
VIII Bear Entire Expense.
Mr., Carnegie has kept the proposed
endowment secret until he could
definitely arrange the plans and scope
Of the new university. Even yet all
these details have not been ar
ranged, 50 that little more than the
outline of his gilt can be published
1t II known, however, that he does
not propose 10 ask from congress a

In the House.

The house this week probably will
pass a measure to meet the situation
created by the Philippine decision at
the supreme court last Monday. Up
to the present time, however, the re-
publican members of the ways and
means committee have not decided
upon the character of the measure
which will be reported. A difference
of opinion exists as to whether there
should be a temporary enactment of
the Dingley rates on goods entering
the United States from the Philip
pines or whether permanent scheme
of tariff legislation should be pre-
pared. 1t is understood that Mr..
Payne. chairman of the committee,
and Mr. Dalzeu (Pa.) favor the lat
ter course. The republican members
of the committee will meet again to-
day. Of course, if it is decided to
enact temporary measure the pro-
cedure will be exceedingly simple, and
it probably can be passed in a day.
If. on the other hand, an entire
scheme of tariff legislation is to be
enacted more time will be consumed,
both in the preparation and passage
of the measure.
