the majority, ''are trying to solve it fairly to both races and I appeal to you. if you are in favor of upholding the negro race, if you are in favor of protecting the in- vestments which the North has sent there, to send this resolution to commit tee and let 1t die there"

 Resolution is Stupid"
 MT. Williams of Mississippi said that of recent years some of the people Of the South had listened to the siren voice of the North that sectionaism was dead. This resolution would pluck rom the eyes ot those who had been partially deceived the veil that had been placed over tnem After declaring that the resolution was stupid and impracticable and citing the voting requirements of various other States, he made an ardent defense of the course Of Mississippi and other Southern States
 There is no man who loves American civilization said he, "who is not glad in his heart that by constitutional and legal methods-analagous to those adopted in Massachusetts and other States-the South has solved this troublesome and almost un- solvable problem"
 MT. Olmsted said he did not want the res- olution to die and would move its reference to the census committee If the chairman of that committee would agree to call the com mittee together to consider it within one week.
 Chairman Hopkins said he was not in sthe mood to make bargain today, but assured MT. Omsted that his committee would do it's duty.
 MT. Olmsted then made the motion to refer and it was carried without division.
 Mr. Hopkins immediately called up the reapportionment bill. He sought to make an arrangement to vote upon the bill on Monday, but MT. Mann of Illinois objected.
 MT. Hopkins opened the debate in a care full explana tion of his bill. He stated that the majority of the census committee ia vored keeping the membership down to the present number, 357, from considerations of economy and intelligent legislation.
 MT. Shafroth of Colorado wanted MT. Hopkins to explain how 1t was that Colo rado would gain one representative under the system adopted if the total number was 356 or 35S, but would not if it were 357.
 MT. Hopkins replied that the fact which MT Shafroth cited was what was called years ago the Alabama paradox" Any system, he said, would not deal exact jus tice to every State. The membership was arbitrarily fixed at 357, which made the basis of representation POS, S6S. Dividing the population of the States by this division, 335 members were assigned. The other P were assigned to those States having the largest majority fractions.
 MT. Shafroth contended that a larger House was not menace to legislation and cited the popular assemblage of European Parliaments to show that larger House would not be cumbersome.
 At 5 o'clock the House adjourned.

MANY PENSIONS
Members Passed 10 Private
Bills at One Sitting
Yesterday

Washington. Jan. 12-Not since the
Fifty-frst congress has the house pass
ed as many private pension bills at
a single sitting as it did yesterday.
In all 40 special pension bills were
passed. The most important was one
to increase the pension Of Charles
Americus V. Rice from $36 to 500.
Gen. Rice made a gallant record dur
ing the rebellion. He was wounded
several times and lost leg at Vicks-
burg. He was formerly member OF
congress from Ohio. and was the au
thor Of the arrearages Of pension act.
The senate had passed a bill to in
crease his pension to $50, and the
house raised the amount to 500.
In the senate a vigorous attack was
made upon that portion Of the army re-
organization bill which confers upon
the president discretionary power TO
Increase the strength of the army 20
the maximum limit fixed by the bill
Mr.. Bacon, of Georgia, began the at
tack and Mr.. Platt, of Connecticut, re-
plying, maintained that discretionary
power ought to be conferred upon the
president. and expressed astonishment
that anybody should entertain a fear
that the power ever should be abused.
Mr.. Bacon declared he would rather
sec his party condemned 10 universal
and never ending banishment from
political power than to see such au-
thority placed in the hands Of the
president.

passed the reaportionment bill as it
came from the house. The bin now
goes to the president for his signature.

Of Double Dealing
Says Russia Is Not Trying 10 Make
Special agreement With
China

Pellin Jan l2-M De Giers, the
Russian minister to China denies the
current report that Russia il endeav-
Oring to make special agreement with
China. irrespective Of the other powers.
Had this been the case he said.
81 would not have signed the joint
note, although probably. so far as
Manchuria is concerned. Russia and
China will make special arrangements
which will not conflict with any
treaties or agreements made by Russia
and the other joint powers.
81 do not believe that Russia has any
intention OF keeping Manchuria. In
deed, she is placing all the Chinese Of
iicials possible in Office Probably,
however, it will be necessary TO guard
the railroad for an indefinite period
/ do not believe that there are ESQ, 600
Russian soldiers in Manchuria'
With reference to the claim made by
some Of The other envcys that Russia
violated her word in taking a conces-
sion at Tien Tsin NJ. De Giers said
Nothing of the kind. Tien Tsin is
practically a foreign city and Russia
felt the necessity of having a certain
portion of the land there for the benefit
of her trade interests. The land grant
ed had been virtually unused for any
purpose, and was almost worthless.
Russia will make a valuable property,
beneftting herself and China. l do not
consider this like an acquisition Of
territory"
