coNcREssMEN VAcATE THEIR
SEATS TO SPEND HOLIDAYS
WITH THEIR FAM
LIES.

WASHINGTON, Dec 2O.-After the
vote on the Philippines revenue bill We'd
nesday there was a general exodus Of
members OF the house for their homes to
spend Christmas holidays. and yesterday
when the house met there was a waste
Of vacant seats. The session of the house
was brief.
Mr.. Cannon, of Illinois, asked unani-
nous consent for consideration of a bill
for deficiency appropriation Of $4,000
for furnishing transcript Of records in the
general land Office. The bin was passed.
The message of the president, relative
TO the creation OF an Appalachian forest
reserve, was laid before the house. Mr.
DeArmond, OF Missouri. rose to a question
of personal privilege. He said that while
he was absent in the Philippines a report
was circulated IN his state to the effect
that the rural free delivery service was
being held up in his district until his re-
turn.
81 DESIRE" said Mr.. DeArmond, ito
present some testimony to disabuse the
minds of those who may have been mis-
led. to uncover those who may have been
hypocritical and to confute those who
may have lied"
Mr.. DeArmond then obtained unani-
nous consent to make personal state
ment. He said statements had been made
that he had taken action upon rural free
mail delivery routes held up while he
was in the Philippines. but that those
who had made such statements had lied.
He declared that the postoff1ce depart
ment had not treated him in manly
way. Mr.. DeArmond charged that his
letter to the postmaster general had
been held up. He said Mr.. Smith was leav-
ing the department, because he was weary
of trying to solve the rural free delivery
and patronage problem.
The house had agreed to consider the
Nicaragua canal bill Tuesday, January
Z. and thereafter until disposed OF, the
order not, however, to interfere with rev.
enue or appropriation bills.
At Las D. m. the house adjourned until
Monday, January 8, 1902.

TO GET CHECKS

TODAY
THEY WILL Be MAILED TONIGHT.
NEARLY ALL THE WARRANTS
HAVE BEEN SIGNED BY
THE GOVERNOR.

Nearly all the warrants for the payment
of the school teachers have been signed
by Governor Gambler and Comptroller
General Wright. The work will be nm
General Wright The work was finished
up Saturday afternoon.
The teachers will be enabled to get
their money today. Owing the the
heavy pressure of work brought on by the
legislature Governor Gambler was unable
to give the warrants his attention as
promptly as he desired. The delay was
not intentional and could not be avoided.
The amount called for the warrants ag-
gregates $300,00 State School Commis-
sioner Glenn is sending the checks to the
teachers, and is sending out also. the
following letter:
Ny Dear Sir:
The amount apportioned to your coun-
ty for 1902 is -. am sending you here
with check for one months payment on
account of 1901. The balance due your
county on account of 1901 will be paid
about the middle Of January. Let your
ftemized statement. covering all balance
due on account of 1901, be here not later
than January 9th. 1t Is important to have
all these claims paid as early as possible.
At the present moment nobody can tell
how the payments win be made next year.
II the decision Of the supreme court makes
the Howell resolution legal, we wilr GER
tainly be able to make two payments next
spring, of one month each.
Until that matter is settled the treasurer
cannot state definitely how much money
viii be available for payment to the
teachers in the early part of the year.
We will continue to use Roarks methods
next year and in connection with 1t the
teachers will also study Shaw's School
Hygiene. This book can be had from the
Southern School Book Depository, Bur-
CESS Smith, General Manager, Atlanta,
Ca. You will find this School Hygiene by
DR.. Shaw a most helpful book for your
selves as well as your teachers.
The legislature passed law requiring
the teaching of physiology. will send you
a copy of the law as soon as the governor
signs it and I can have it printed. The
teachers will have to be examined on
physiology and hygiene next year.
I will send you in few days supply
Of the new manual and copies Of my re-
port to the legislature, together with all
the supplies you will need for next year.
Wishing you and your board, and your
people. a happy Xmas and prosperous
New Year, I am yours truly,

LONG is A TYRANT,
SAYS ISADoR RAYNER

BALTIMORE, Dec. A.-Isidor Rayner,
attorney general of Maryland and counsel
for Admiral Schley, when shown the de-
cisIon of Secretary Long today, declared:
"The whole proceeding lie arbitrary
and very tyrannical."
He manifested great surprise and indig-
nation.
''The court decided the case" said he.
without considering the testimony of Ad-
miral Schley and his witnesses, and Sec
rotary Long seems to have decided IL
without so much as permitting US to hle
a reply to the protest fled by Admiral
SIMPSONS attorneys.
This protest was fled late yesterday
afternoon, and Just one hour ago we nm
ished our reply to 1t and sent It to WASH
ington.
NOW, I understand that the secretary
has decided against Admiral Dewey and
adverse to Schley's being in command at
Santiago, and virtually in favor OF Samp-
son, without even permitting US 70 pro-
duce before him the conclusive proof, adj
mitted at the hearing by consent, that
the command practically and officially de-
volved upon Schley. The whole proceed
ing is too arbitrary and they are too ty-
rannicaI for me now to discuss. I really
wonder whether the people who live I'M
der free Institutions Will tolerate such
exercise Of despotic measures.
you ask me what our next step VIII
be. I do not know, unless the president
intervenes. There Is q power in the courts
TO compel the secretary to file the dis
senting opinion OF Admiral Dewey wheth-
er he agrees with II or not We viii de-
termine next week what procedure we
will adopt"

AND LONG
MAY RESIGN
1T IS SAID IN WASHINGTON CITY
THAT THEY ARE SOON TO
LEAVE THE cAsI.
NET.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 2o.-Two
cabinet changes are Imminent.
Secretary Lyman j. Gage, Of the treas
ury department, has not resigned. but
his resignation will certainly shortly be
rendered. There has been no disagreement
with the president The relations have
been exceedingly cordial but Mr.. Gage
has been ascabinet officer for almost five
years. He wanted to retire at the be-
ginning OF Mr. McKfnley's second admin
istration, but remained because he loved
the late president, and now though he has
every respect for Mr.. Roosevelt, and their
relations are cordial, there is not the same
reason for remaining and Mr.. Roosevelt
has been in Office long enough to get the
run OF matters.
The other cabinet change to occur after
awhile is in the navy department where
Secretary John d. Long. will retire. The
time for his retirement has not been fixed
and 1t will probably not be until the
Schley case has been settled, but Mr..
Long will go back to his law practice. He
too, has been here almost five years and
while his relations with Mr.. Roosevelt
are very friendly, there is not the same
reason for remaining as there was.
No other changes in the cabinet seem
now to be likely.

STORY OF ASSAULT
IS FLATLY DENIED
1T WAS ONLY A DRUNKEN MAN
THAT STAGGERED AGAINST
ROOSEVELT.

WASHINGTON, Dec. n.-Both at the
white house and at the British embassy
an emphatic denial is made Of the pub
lished story Of an assault alleged to have
been made upon the president Thursday
afternoon. The president himself declares
the story Is not true and authorizes the
denial Of it. Lord Pauncefote, the British
ambassador. who is said to have been q
witness of the assault emphatically de-
MES the statement. 3
The story Of the assault grew out Of
the fact that an intoxicated man was
lurching along Massachusetts avenue
Thursday afternoon as the president was
taking his daily walk, and that the man
brushed against the president secret
service officer arrested the man, but It is
understood he was soon afterward re-
leased
A sensational story that the president
had been struck in the presence Of Lord
Pauncefote was printed in New York
today.

CAN'T KILL POLYGAMY
WITHOUT CIVIL WAR
Missionary to the Mormons Declares That They WIFE
Soon Have Complete Control of Thirteen
Western States-Idaho is Said
To Be Worse Than Utah

NEW YORK. Dec. z.-At a recent
meeting OF the members Of the West End
Presbyterian church it was decided to
endorse and work for the proposed amend
ment to the constitution so that polygamy
may be made impossible in the United
States.
Rev. n. z. Clemenson. Of Logan, Utah,
was the principal speaker. He told Of po-
lygamy as he had seen II In his own state.
and how the Mormons were still living
with many wives, contrary to their
pledges when Utah was admitted into
statehood. He thought the dangers In
Idaho greater than in Utah, as less at
tention is paid 10 Mormons there, and
they live openly with their wives under
the system they call celestial marriage, >"
and which they deny 70 be polygamy.
Mrs. w. p. White, who for some years
has been doing missionary and education
al work among Mormons. told how her
school house had been attacked and
wrecked by a mob. She declared that the
Mormon church had political control Of
seven western states. Mrs. White also
said that under their marvellous system OF
colOnizing doubtful states the Mormons
before long would control thirteen states,
and IL would then be impossible to kill
poliEamy without civil war.

COUNSEL FOR SAMPSON
DO NOT LIKE VERDICT

WASHINGTON. D4ae, 2e.--Mr. Theau,
acting for Mr.. stayton, counsel for Rear
Admiral Sampson, yesterday called at
the navy department to see Judge Advo-
cate General Lemley. Mr.. Theall stated
that the objections to the findings of Ad-
rniral Dewey will not be filed with Secre-
tary Long until tomorrow morning. In
brief, the statement will object to Admiral
Dewey's opinion that Admiral Schley was
in complete command at the battle of San
tiago bay, and that the testimony touch
ing this point was not admitted during
the session of the inquiry. Nc-
The bill of exceptions filed by counsel
for Admiral Schley with Secretary Long
yesterday and the accompanying letter OF
Mr.. Raynor have been referred to Judge
Advocate Lemley, who is engaged in the
preparation of a reply.

LONG DISPOSES OF SCHLEY CASE;
QUESTION OF COMMAND RULED OUT
MILES CALLED TO TASK
FOR PRAISING SCHLEY

WASHINGTON, Dec n.-Secretary Root
has determined that the Sampson-Schley
controversy which has tormented the
navy since the Spanish war, shan not
invade the army.
Therefore. when his attention was drawn
20 an interview published IN a Cincinnati
paper. wherein General Miles is represent
ed 10 have commented upon the findings
OF the court, the secretary decided TO can
upou Mr.. Miles for an explanation.
He did this through letter which was
delivered to the general by hand.
Today. General Miles was at the secre-
tary's door almost as soon as the once
was opened.
He had a verbal explanation TO make,
and this he accompanied by letter.
Secretary Root took the letter 70 the
white house and talked with PRESIDENT
Roosevelt over the matter, with view
TO deciding whether or not the explana-
ton was satisfactory.
When the secretary returned 70 the war
department General Miles called again up
on him and supplemented his first letter
with a further explanatory note. rms
also was sent to the white house. II Is
understood that the incident win be ter
minated on the basis. Of General Miles

General Miles was unwilling to say any

PITTsBURG, Dec. n.-For the third
time within p hours, Pittsburg steel work
ers have been killed or manned BY terrific
explosions.
Following on the heels Of the awful dis
asters at the Soho furnace Of Jones g.
Laughlins. on Thursday, and at the Black
Diamond Steel works yesterday, the city
was shocked this morning by the report
Of another explosion at Singer-Ninicks'
West End plant of the Crucible Steel com

burned.
At s:55 O'Clock, two Of a battery Of ave

There are at least 20 other men who
were at work in the mill at the time Of
the explosion who were more or less In
jured. The men were all hurt by the
escaping steam.
The cause OF the explosion Is attributed
to frozen pipes which supplied the two
boilers OF the five with water. This froze
some time early this morning. About six

the fidelity and courage with which an
officer had executed the duties falling up
on him.
This is the only statement General Miles
v,ould authorize on tho subject, and he
was loath to say even this much, feeling
that one remark would lead to another
and a controversy thus would be soon
under way. It is understood that the m
terview which is now the subject OF IN
ouirv. occurred rather casually, not being
prepared with any purpose of giving 1t
formal authorization.
Secretary OF War Root, by direction OF
the president, administered a strong reprl-
mand to Lieutenant Colonel Miles for Ut
tering the sentiments attributed to him
in the Cincinnati interview touching the
Schley case.
The secretary said in part:

versy, and no right, holding the offlee
which you do, to express any opinion"
