CONGRESS THIS WEEK
The House Will Pass Tariff Bill for
the Philippines.
OPPOSITION TO BILL.
A Few Republicans Will Oppose the
Measure and Some Democrats WIN
Vote for it-Hay-PauncefOte
Treaty in the Senate.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE house
this week will pass the bill to provide
temporarily revenues for the Philip
pine islands, which was reported from
the ways and means committee last
Friday. Under the agreement made
the general debate will extend
throughout Tuesday and until o'clock
Wednesday, when vote will be taken.
There will be no opportunity to amend
the measure There will be break
in the party lines on both sides OF
the house. Mr.. Mccall Of Massachu-
sets, the Republican member OF the
ways and means committee who op-
posed the Porto Rican bill during the
last congress. Will speak against the
measure and will be supported In his
dissent by several Republicans and
some Democrats will not vote for the
bill.
The general belief is that the bill
will secure as many Democratic as
votes as it loses votes on the Repub-
lican side and that the majority III
its favor, when placed upon Its pass
age, will be about the Republican ma
jority in the house.
The disposition of the senate Is tic
do very little business beyond acting
upon the Hay-Pauncefote treaty before
adjournment for the holidays
| In accordance with the agreement
reached Friday the treaty will be votet
on before the senate adjourns today
On tomorrow the management o
the changes in committees Will b
made and there is a probability tina
after this announcement the senat
will adjourn until Thursday when tn
adjournment for the holidays Will TAX
place, extending 60 Jan. 6.
If there are business sessions Wed
nesday and Thursday Senator Nor
gan will make an effort to secure &C
ton on his bill authorizing the acqui
sition for right-of-way for the Nicar
aqua canal, -but senators on the Re
publican side of the chamber are in
clined to postpone all important leg
islation until after the holidays
There probably will be action be

PEOPLE ARE INDIGNANT.
Verdict in schley Case Condemned by
All Glasses of People.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Schley and
Dewey are praised and Benham and
Ramsay are condemned for the term
nation of the Schley court of inquiry
The verdict has aroused the greatest
indignation and Bonham and Ramsay
have forever discredIted themselves III
the eyes of the people.
For Admiral George Dewey nothing
he has ever done, not even the great
victory at Manila bay, could possibly
have been received with more general
satisfaction. That he has strengthen
ed himself in the graces of the Amerl-
can people can not for a moment be
doubted. Indeed, Dewey and Schley
have almost monopolized the te1e-
graphic wires leading into Washing
ton. These kilograms have expressed
in no uncertain manner the deep-seat-
ed disgust Of the people at the action
of the majority Of the court OF in
Quiry.
1t is not known just now what the
future of the case will be. Admiral
Schley will wait until he consults Isl
+ dor Rayner and other friends before
he makes a move.
AS for the congressional invostiga
ton, which is SO strongly urged, there
is no immediate prospect that one viii
be madc. Any resolution that may be
offered and no doubt many will be OF
fered just "a soon as the opportunity
is open. Will, under the rules, go to the
committee on naval affairs. where they
viii be promptly buried.
There is yet a possibility that thF
president himself may disprove thu
findings Of the court. Il the presiden
should 90 this it would AFFORD salts
factory solution of the whole difficulty
and at the same time greatly elevate
the president in the estimation II al
classes OF people.
