Washington, Jan. Is. - Just at the
close Of a day Of dreary discussion of
technical delays Of the army reorgan-
ization bill Mr.. Teller Of Colorado,
speaking to an amendment he had Of
fered, delivered a sensational denuncia-
ton of Gen. Egan, former commissary
general Of the army. His denunciation
included also the administration, be-
cause Gen. Egan had been retired, ac-
cording to the Colorado senator's
charge, as a decoration and a reward
for his attack upon the commanding
general Of the army. In an appeal for
the early passage Of the pending bill,
Senator Carter of Montana declared
that delay now would mean an addi-
tional expenditure Of $500, 900 a day. He
asked that a time be set for a vote,
hut Mr.. Teller objected. Absolutely no
progress was made with h measure,
not a single amendment being disposed
. fffnally.
In the House. .
+ The house yesterday postponed Dis
trict Of Columbia business until next
Monday and proceeded with the river
and harbor bill. Good progress was
made, 50 of the 81 page of the bill be-
ing completed. Many amendments
we're offered, but without exception all
of them failed.

Many American Officers sick.

Washington, Jan. 22.-Reports from
the Philippines indicate a great deal or
sickness prevailing among both naval
and army officers on duty in the archi-
pelago. Long terms of duty in these
islands are likely to impair the most
robust constitution, according to the.
views Of army and naval medical Of
f1cers, and a limitation Of duty tours
in the Philippines to a period OF two
years is advocated.

In b senate.
Washington, Jan. II. A final t
dpon the pending army reorganization
bill will be taken by the senate at :
o'clock Friday under the terms OF
agreement reached late yesterday.
Speeches in opposition to the bill were
delivered by Mr.. Allen (Pop) of Ne
braska, MI. Teller (Silver) of Colorado
and Mr.. Butler Poppy of North Caro-
lima. MI. McCumber (Rep) OF North
Dakota made an argument In support
Of the measure. The feature Of the
debate was the denunciation of the
practice Of hazing at the West Point
military academy. Mr.. Allen, MT:
Money Of mississippi and Mr.. Mccum-
Der declared it to be an evidence OF
brutality and cowardice. the Missis-
sippi senator maintaining that a
whom others attempted to haze would
be justified in killing his assailants.
He declared that II he were a cadet
upon whom such cowardly brutality
were attempted he would kill those
who assaulted him II he had to walt q
hundred years for the opportunity.
In the House.
The river and harbor appropriation
oil was passed yesterday by the
house. The bill has been under cons:d-
Grafton over q week and has been as
sailed from many quarters. but its
)friends have stood solidly by it n
defeated every amendment to which
the river and harbor committee would
lot agree. The bill passed practically
as 1t came from the Committee. It
carries slixhtly less than $50, 000,0 900. Of
which $2s, oCo. 900 Is direct %appropria-
lions. The friends Of he Missouri
river improvement, although they were
unsuccessful in securing what they de-
sired. persuaded Chairman Burton to
offer an amendment to permit owners

In the SENATE,

VuS1l1uS IOL, jan. pTOST IS
was made by the senate yesterday in
the consideration of the army bill.
One amendment that has created muca
discussion was disposed of and a tacit
agreement has been reached for a vote
very soon. .t
Mr.. Cockrell Of Missouri emphasized
his opposition to the increase in the
army proposed by the bill and his in
tention to vote against it. but expressed
his opinion that the bill ought to be
disposed Of speedily. MI. Sewell of
New Jersey also urged speedy action
on the measure on account of. the SRI
-:us embarrassment the government
was laboring under in preparing for the
return of the volunteers from the Phil
ippines.
The principa. speeches against the
bill Were made by MI. Berry Of Arkan-
as, Mr.. Bacon of Georgia and Mr..
"-iler of Colorado. Mr.. Warren Of
Wyoming delivered an extended argu-
ment in support of the bill. During the
speech Of Mr.. Bacon a colloquy be-
tween him and Mr.. Hanna of Ohio as
to h issues in the November elections
created much interest. Mr.. Bacon's
j. amendment striking out of the bill the
discretionary authority conferred upon
the president to increase the size of
the rmy was laid on the table by the
decisive vote of 80 to 20.
In the House.
The house spent another day or the
river and harbor bill without COM
pleting it. Twenty-six pages were
disposed of. The friends of the bill
successfully resisted all attempts to
load down the bill with new projects
and only one or two unimportant
amendments were adopted. The West
ern members labored unnecessarily to
secure an entering wedge for their pet
scheme for the reclamation Of the arid
lands but received only very limited
support.
The senate resolution to appropriate
$1,000 to enable the secretary of the
senate to pay the expenses Of the In
auguration of the president and vice
president on March 4 was called up
and precipitated a lively discussion be-
cause it did not recognize the house as
a particular factor In the Inauguration
ceremonies. The resolution was re-
committed with instructions to report
back a resolution providing for inau-
gural ceremonies under h auspices OF
a joint committee Of he senate n
house.
