PROGRAMME FOR THE COMING WEEK Varist! of Bills to be Discuss
 ed in the Senate
 
TONNE ON THE PHILIPPINES
Week in the House Will Probably be Monopoized by the Appropriation Bills Big Debate Expected
 on Postoffce Measure

Washington, January 27.-A variety of subjects, including appropriation bills, the war revenue reduction bill, the ship sub sidy bill, and, to some extent, the Philip pine question, will claim the attention of the Senate the coming week. On Monday MT. Towne will speak on the problems in- volved in the government of the Philippines. There is somewhat more than usual inter- est in this speech, because not only of MT. Towne's reputation as an orator and the fact that it will be his only speech in the Senate upon a political subject but also because of increased interest in the question aroused by the Presidents request for early legislation on this subject. It does not ap- pear probable that the Minnesota Senator's speech will call out other speeches on this subject, because even Senators who would like to see legislation during this session admit the impossiblity of taking up the matter seriously until the report of the Taft Commission can be printed, or so long as there are other pressing questions be- fore the Senate. Still, struggling references to the subject are not improbable at any time during the remainder of the session.
 Senator Aldrich, chairman of the finance committee, has given notice that he will ask the Senate to take up the war revenue bill early in the week. The understanding is that he will press that question to the ex- clusion of all other bills except appropria- ton bills. Being revenue measure, 1t will take precedence of other questions under the Senate rules. While there is no real opposition to the war revenue bill, it ap- pears ppobable that there will be some dis cussierl If 1t, as an easy means of delaying consid&ration of the subsidy bill.
 If there is an opportunity the subsidy bill will be taken up, not that 1t is expected that anything more definite will occur during the present week than the making of some speeches.

PAWNEE BILLS POSSE
 VISITS HOSTILE CREEKS

Bristow, l. T., January H.-Maj C. w. Lille, "Pawnee Bill," with posse includ- ing Capt. Edmund Harry of the Creek Light Horsemen, United States Marshals Eagan, Hogan and Churchwel and Indian Police Reyes, Howell and Saunders, visited the hostile Creek camping ground six miles south of this place, at noon today. The Indians were there, holding a big feast, and refused the posse admittance and declined to confer with them in any manner.
 Many of the fullboods who have been in the habit of wearing white mans apparel, were dressed in full Indian regalta. They were most bitter in their denunciation of the marshals who arrested Tom Tiger, cap- tain of the insurgent light horsemen, who left at dark in charge of United States Mar shals Dean, Hogan and posse for Musko- gee, as 1t is feared an attempt may be made during the night to release him if held here.
 Late last night a telegram was received from Marshal Bennett authorizing the Mayor and Council here to arm and swear in all able-bodied citizens to protect their property until soldiers could be sent here from Henrietta.

Announcement Created Great Emotion Throughout Italy.
 Theatres Were Closed.

Milan, January H.-Although preceded by struggle for life that lasted two days, Verdis death, when it came, was peace- full He did not regain consciousness When he passed away he was surrounded by relatives and intimate friends. The an- nouncement of his death created great emo- ton. Theatres, pleasure resorts and many stores were closed, and nearly all the prom inent residences were draped.
 King Victor Emanuel sent to the family a telegram of condolence on behalf of him. self and Queen Helena saying:
 We join in the homage regrets and ad- miration offered by Italy and the civilized world to the immortal memory of Verdi. The nation and the glorious art of our country have suffered a loss so serious that 1t Is beyond repair"
 In his will Verdi asks that the funeral may be ''very modest" He suggests that 1t take place either at daybreak or even- tide, and that the ceremony be without music. 'The chanting of two priests, two candles and a cross will sufice," he wrote.

THE WORLD SERVICES WERE HELD IN
 MEMORY OF DEAD QUEEN

London, January 2S.-Throughout the kingdom all places of worship yesterday held services in memory of Queen Victoria At St. Paurs cathedral there was an un- usual scene. Before o'clock in the morn- ing enormous crowd, wholly attired in black, streamed from all directions to the vast edifice, and by 10 o'clock it was pack ed. Thousands unable to obtain admission stood vainly waiting on the steps and around, listening to the low organ strains and muffied peal. The service began at lO:SO. The Most Rev. Frederick Temple, primate and archbishop of Canterbury, preached a most touching sermon.
 There was a similar scene at Westmin- ster Abbey, where all the services through out the day were attended by enormous con- gregations.
 All the Roman Catholic and foreign churches in England held special memorial serVices The members of the French em- oassy attended the French church; and very elaborate services were held at the chapel of the Russian embassy by command of Emperor Nicholas
 Everywhere particular attention was paid to the musical portion of the service. At Lincoln's Inn chapel Brahms Requiem" was performed. Special sermons were preached In St. Georges chapel at Windsor Everywhere cathedrals and churches were draped and hung with mourning emblems Telegrams from the colonies and from all the principal cities abroad where British subjects reside report memorial services Sir Alfred Milner attended the service at the cathedral in Capetown.

THE HOUSE..

Washington, January N.-The week in the House is likely to be monopolized by appropriation bills. Several have already passed the House, namely: the executive, legislative and judicial pension, military academy, Indian, naval, river and harbors and District of Columbia bills Three oth- CTS, the post office, agricultural and forti- fication bills have been reported to the House and the remaining four, the army, consular and diplomatic, sundry civil and general deficiency, are still in the commit tees, having them in charge. The three reported to the House, and the consular and diplomatic, which is practically com- pleted, probably will be disposed of during the week. Whatever time remains will be occupied with the bill to promote the eff fciency of the revenue cutter service, which has been made a continuing special order, not, however, to interfere with appropria- ton bills. The post office appropriation bill is likely to be made the occasion of much debate. All the questions raised by the report of the joint postal commission are likely to be dragged into the arena. An effort undoubtedly will be made to con- tinue the appropriation for pneumatic tube service which were eliminated from the bill and there probably will be the usual fight on the appropriations for special mail facilities. It may be that in the course of a week a special rule will be brought in for the consideration of one of the gold bills brought in by the committee banking and currency commissions, both of which are struggling for precedence in connection with this legislation. But the committee on rules, to which the committees appeal ed yesterday, has not yet come to any con clusiop and the gold bills place in the weeks programme remains probematical.

Ued yesterday morning by the Board of

stand later in the day and told his side of
the story.
From the testimony Of Knowlton's pu-
pills the children Of the A Eighth grade Of
the John SWEET Grammar School had so
many teachers they didn't know what to
DO. Eleven Of them within few months
they counted Of-sOme good, some bad,
some Indifferent. These children had a
good word to say for Knowlton and one
Of them even went so far as to circulate
a petition fOr his restoration.
The three pupils who testified are Miss
Lillian White, Miss May Cummings and
John Wright all bright, quick-witted chill
dren Miss White told how the class was
In state Of uncertainty most Of the time
on account Of the rapid change of teach

St. Nicholas Is Honored.

The barkentine Bering was gayly
decked with flags yesterday. She flies the
Russian ensign, and in honor of st. Mich
olas day the captain dressed his ship If
looked odd among the mass of shipping
to see one solitary vessel with al her
flags flying, but when it came to be
known that not only was ST. Nicholas the
patron saint of Russia but that Nicholas
was also the Car and the best beloved
monarch that ever ruled over all the Rus
sas the secret was easy to explain.
The Bering brought very valuable car
go of furs from Siberia, and after dis
charging will sail again for Vladivostok.
