NEEDS OF WASHINGTON
NOT THE .CTfY, But THE STATE OF
THAT NAME.


Representative, Francis W. Cushman OF
Washington arrived In this city with MRS.
Cushman last night and took up their win
ter quarters at 922 NJ street northwest. MI
CushRan was seen this morning by Star
reporter and asked his views regarding the
national legislative situation as viewed from
the west. He replied that there were many
national questions which were vital TO the
interests of his state, and mentioned the
Nicaragua canal Pacific cable, reciprocity
and perhaps the right kind OF snip SUD-
sidy bill. However; he was, he said, most
profoundly impressed with the fact that the
state of Washington did not have an army
Of representative IN Congress, and that the
needs of his state were the paramount m
things for his consideration ana efforts IN
Congress.
"In this connection would mention the
river and harber bill" said Mr. Cushman.
I'VE had the river and harbor committee IN
Washington during the summer, ana al
though no indication was given that they
were impressed with our crying neeos, we
are not without hope that the next river
and harbor measure will not require .sae .ae
drastic measures against its passage that
the last one did" Mr.. Cushman's speech IN
the House against the river and harbor Dill
last winter Is well remembered mere ne
matte and effective manner, and was not
sparing of his criticism Of the manner IN
which 1t was made up
A Mint at Tacoma.
A United States mint at Tacoma. his
home city, beside several lighthouses along
the coast. are Incidental. though locally I'M
portant matters which Mr.. Cushman ex-
poets to devote considerable attention to.
The mint proposition was reported favor
ably from the House commltte on coinage.
weights and measures, OF which Mr.. Cush-
man Is a member, last winter. the at
fairs of Alaska, which naturally fall TO
considerable extent to the Washington del
egates, will also receive the careful atten-
tion of Mr.. Cushman particularly the de-
mand from, that region for more Light
houses
I'VE have very fine navy yard on Puget
sound" continued Mr.. Cushman." " which has
also been the subject of inspection during
the past summer by members Of the House
committee on naval affairs. The natural
advantages and site of this navy yard are
second to none in the world, and this tact
seems to be receiving recognition by the
Navy Department, as well as the necessity
for a fully equipped navy yard In that sec
tion Of our territory. The indications are
now that the Puget sound navy yard Will
be used to a much greater extent than the
Mare Island, California, yard. The water
way to the latter yard Is decidedly insult
able, and in order to be used at all requires
constant dredging. We hope and expect
generous appropriation for Puget sound at
the coming session..
The public building bill will also be one
| of the measures which Mr. Cushman hopes
! will reflect some Of his successful efforts at
| the present session.
Mr.. and Mrs sCushman came to Washing
ton by the way. of San Francisco, Los An
geles, New Orleans and st. Louis, and have
| been on the road for some time.

not make at this time any statement in
regard to the matter, but 1t is known that
he regards the shipments as very natural
movement In view Of the quite general de-
mand for money in Europe, and that he be-
lieves there is nothing in the situation to
cause the least uneasiness. At this time
there is an unusual demand for money in
several European financial centers. and it
is to be expectedO it is said. that United
States investors, would take advantage of
the increased interest rates and ship their
funds to the best market. The officials do
not believe. however. that the shipments
will assume very large proportions, espe-
ciaily as any cbhsiderable Withdrawals

measure.

planters, who are unable to obtain funds to
husband their crops until harvest time;
Funds are also necessary for cleaning and

The loan bill Of the House Of Delegates
was killed by the Executive Council; but 1t
il now believed that. when the facts are
property presented. the formal objections
will be removed. Small returns are made
by large plantations solely because Of the
lack of a little capital.

There is good authority for the statement

ing they would yield 50 1-2 per cent on the
