The House continued Its deliberations
on the appropriation bill this afternoon,
starting where Il left on for its lunch

ton was passed over temporarily and
that for the deaf, dumb and blind
school taken up. Mr.. Anderson moved
that the maintenance appropriation for
that institution be raised from Si5, 900
10 81, 900 and the change was made.
Mr.. Smith asked that the attention OF
the House be called back TO the Uni
verslty fund. which he asked should be
made 10 include interest on the perma
nent land fund. The amendment was
adopted.
In the Industrial school report Mr.
Davis asked that $1,000 be added for the
completion OF the women's cottage. The
Increase was allowed.
In the appropriation for the State
prison Mr. Smith said that he would
like 10 have the wording Of the appro-

COUNT Won BUELOW
ON CHINA CRISIS,
In the Reichstag He Admits Differences Of
Opinion Have Arisen Anglo-German
Agreement Means Integrity of Empire.

Berlin, March 15.--The imperial
chancellor, Count Won Buelow, In a
speech in the reichstag today admitted
that differences OF opinion had arisen
between the powers IN regard to Chi
nese affairs. but he hoped they would
be overcome.
The debate on the supplementary es-
Inmates for China furnished the oppor.
tunity for the statement from the chan
cellor. IN anticipation OF something in
teresting occurring, both the floor Of
the house and the galleries were filled.
The chancellor began by declaring that
the negotiations on the Chinese ques-
lion were making slow but steady prog
ress. Although II had not been easy
to secure an agreement, owing TO the
naturally conflicting interests Of the
different governments It had been pos
sible to draw up a reasonable peace
program. The harmony Of the powers,
thus far, had been preserved and hope
was entertained that the feeling OF
solidarity among the civilized nations
would suffice 10 overcome the differ
ences of opinion which had lately be-
come apparent In regard to the matters
In China.
The chancellor traced the delibera-
tons OF the powers, following which ne
gotiations had been entered upon with
China.

gan company has arrived in this city

the Tabernacle organ. With him Is Mr.
Wiener, the chief organ yoicer OF the

that the entire inside Of the grand old

Mr.. Hedgeland was even more enthu-
slastic. When seen this afternoon he
was In the bowels OF the grand old In
