This is Done in Executive Session Without the
Formality of Roll Call. Debate on
Philippine Tariff Begins in
House TODAY.
House Today.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington. Dec. 16.--An echo of the
verdict of the Court of Inquiry in the
case of Rear Admiral Schley was heard
in the Senate today when Mr.. Jones, OF
Arkansas. introduced a resolution ex-
tending the thanks of Congress and OF
the American people to Admiral Schley
and the officers and men under his com
maad during the battle OF July 5, 1898, Off
mitting the resolution Mr.. Jones made no
statement, and it was referred without
comment to the Committee ON Naval
Affairs.
A resolution heretofore, offered by Mr..
Vest, of Missouri, instructing the Com
nittee on Judiciary to inquire into the
subject of anarchy. and to report to the
Senate by bill or otherwise, constitu-
tional method by which Congress may
legislate for the suppression of anarchy
and for the control of anarchists, was
adopted.
Mr. Jones' resolution is as follows:
That the thanks of Congress and the
American people are hereby rendered to
Rear Admiral Winfield S. Schley and the
officers and men under his command for
highly distinguished conduct in conflict
with the enemy, as displayed by them in
the destruction of the Spanish fleet off
the harbor of Santiago, Cuba, July 8,
1898.
THAT the President of the United
States be requested to cause this resolu-
tion to be communicated to Rear Admiral
Schley and through him to the officers
and men under his command
A resolution offered by Mr.. Clay (Geor-
gia) directing the Secretary of War to
make survey of Plantation and Club
Greeks, Ga, with view of making them
navigable for river steamers, was
agreed to.
Another resolution offered by Mr.. Clay
directing the Postmaster General to send
10 the Senate a complete statement of
the amounts paid by the United States
Government to various steamship lines
for mail service, together with copies of
the contract in each case, also was
agreed to.
Mr.. Clapp (Minn.) called up his resolu-
ton providing that further discussion of
the pending Hay Pauncefote treaty
should be had in open session
Addressing the Senate briefly, he said
that while the resolution was not intro
duced as joke, the country regarded the
executive sessions of the Senate as a
farce While his resolution, he believed
would be shelved, he was of the opinion
mat the executive sessions '.will become
part of the tradition and rubbish of
this great people OF ours
Ihe resolution was referred to the
Committee on Rules.
Then the Senate went into executive
session.

DURHAM GOES FORWARD.
Great improvements Going On. Gov, Aycock
Will Speak in January.
Especial to News and Observer

-
Durham N. c.. Dec. 16.-Great i'm
provements are going on here, and those
| in progress now and in prospective, will
entail an expenditure of nearly a million
dollars for the year ending next August.
The bond issue for $1,000 is being used
for improvements on streets, sewers,
school buildings and market, and the
work is being pushed. The gas company
and the traction company will each spend
about 100000, while another gas COM
pany is expected to begin work at any
time. The water company has lately
spent about $50, 600 in improvements, and
handsome residences and business houses
keep going up
The work on the Streets aided by Sat
urday's rains, makes them almost i'm
passable now, but after awhile we will
all be repaid for the present inconven-
ience. The Traction Company has torn
up between seven and eight miles of
street putting in their road, and but lit
tie of this has yet been replaced. The
city is grading and macadamizing a num-
ber of streets. There is work being
done by both the gas company and the
water works company and this causes
more tearing up of the streets.
Governor Aycock will speak here on
educational affairs during January by in
vitation of the Junior Order United
American Mechanics. At this time flags
and Bibles will be presented to be used
at the new school buildings.
Yesterday Rev. ]. H. McCracken
preached his farewell sermon here in
Trinity Methodist church. His new work
will be on the Yanceyville circuit,
where he goes from this circuit, leaving
here the last of this week.
