Notable Amendment to

SMALL LOAN TO Be PROVIDED FOR
Measure Practically Compatibility
Be Reported in Senate Tomorrow and
Voted on Mcnday-Other Important
Changes-Personal Tax Plan.

The District appropriation bill as it has
been amended by the District subcommit-
tee of the Senate Appropriation Commit
tee provides for the doubling of the re-
tail Liquor license tax from $500 to $500
per annum.
This radical amendment was agreed
upon by the committee only at the last
moment before it completed its work yes
terday IT is considered one of the most
important changes in the bill and one OF
its chief features.
The news that the amendment had been
made by the subcommittee was received
with great interest both at the Capitol
and elsewhere yesterday afternoon. II is
understood that there it will meet with
determined opposition from the liquor
dealers.
The appropriation bill is now practi-
cally in shape, and 1t will be reported to
the full appropriation committee today.
II will probably be reported to the Sem
ate tomorrow, and will be voted on next
Monday

WITNESS CITES THREE
CASES OF WATER CURE
Private Evans Testifes That Filipinos
Were Treated Humanely and
Kindly by Americans.

The inquiry into the affairs in the
Philippine Islands was taken Up again
yesterday by the Senate committee on
that subject. The witness was Mark
H. Evans. of Des Mones. Ia. who had
served in the Island of Luzon as ser
geant of Company f Of the Thirty sec
ond United States Volunteer Infantry.
He had seen three cases of the water
cure, and the burning of some villages.
His description did not vary to any ex-
tent from those given by other wit
nesses. The cure was administered, he
said, for the purpose of obtaining con-
fessions.
In answer to questions by Senator
McComas the witness said that the
Philippine women and children and
prisoners OF war were treated kindly
and humanely by the Americans. The
orders were to treat them we'll; and the
occurrences which he mentioned were
the only exceptions that he knew of to
the general rule.
In reply to question by Senator
Patterson. the witness said that all the
native ''shacks" for about 30 miles
along the Bay OF Manila, and at the
base of the mountains where there were
bands of insurgents. were destroyed.
His estimate was that there was not
more than 10 or 10 per cent of all the
houses burned.

Proceedings to Set Aside Conveyances
Valued at $4,000.

Proceedings in equity were yesterday
Instituted by Mary C. Weinberg and
Adam Weinberg, through their solicit
tors. Strausberger e. Dammann, against
Annie B. Post and others, for the pur-
pose of setting aside certain deeds of
conveyance of real estate in this city
of the value of 500, 900.
1t is claimed that one John Port the
father of Mrs. Weinberg. shortly before
his death, executed a deed of the prop
erty in question to a trustee for the
benefit of his wife, and that he was
induced 10 do so through the undue in
fuence of Annie b. Post. II is alleged
that at the time of the execution of the
deed Mr. Post was seventy-six years of
age, and for number of years had been
so feeble and infirm that he was un-
able to understand and appreciate the
character of the deed presented TO him
by Mrs. Port, who was his third wife.
The complainants claim that by the
will executed by Mr.. Port they were
literally provided for. but that by vir-
tue of the deed there remained a bal
ance OF but s2+ TO the credit of the es-
tate after all expenses had been paid
The court is asked to pass a decree de-
claring the deed null and void. and that
pending the hearing of the cause. the
defendants be restrained from disposing
of the property.

TO JUSTIFY GOV. WOOD.
Not Doubted That Administration Will
Defend His Course.

Owing 10 the absence from Washing
tor of Secretary Root and other War
Department officials. there was no one
at the War Department yesterday au-
thorized 10 say anything in explanation
of the testimony of Mr. Thurber. Assis-
tant Secretary of War Sanger does not
feel at liberty to discuss the matter
but there is no doubt as to the position
OF the President and Secretary of War
on the subject. Secretary Root will UNI
doubtedly make some explanation, as he
did when the expenditures of General
Wood in Cuba were criticised several
weeks ago.
II was admitted at that time that
money had been paid General Gomez By
General Wood, from Cuban revenues.
He derived his authority to do so from
the President. IL was explained that
the interests of Cuba required the eX-
penditure of this money, and that the
President. as the appropriating power,
had authorized General Wood to
make the payments mentioned in
a like manner, II is said, that a
guardian has complete power TO make
expenditures of the funds of his ward

The people OF Cuba wanted reciprocity,
they wanted lower duties on their pro-

to build union station. Mr.. Green re-
Piled by saying that the railroads had
never brought the question before Con-
gress. but after 1t was raised the atti-
tude of the railroads underwent change.
Railroads Become Anxious.
we are willing" he said, ito 90
ahead and spend this extra amount Of
money, and give the people of Washing
ton this station il they want it." He
added, however. that the railroads
wanted. to know what was to be re-
quired of them, and not be held up in
the air. So far as traffic was concerned,
he said. there was no necessity for
union station. but from an architectural
standpoint for the aggrandizement OF
Washington the station was a step in
the, right direction. There was such a
thing as having a union station too
large.
Of Benefit to the People.
The union station. he thought, would
be benefit to the people, but not much
advantage to the railroad. The Balti-
more and Ohio. he stated. was preparing
to carry out the legislation of 1901. and
had already secured the land necessary
for Il. What the company did desire
was a speedy settlement of the question
in order that 1t might know what was
to be done. The measure was proposed
by the public, he said, and had not been
asked for by the railroads.
Mr.. Mudd called attention to the
clause in the bill which renders it void
If the companies do not accept its terms
In ninety days
Nj. Hamilton said that the Baltimore
and Ohio would accept the terms Of the
bill in its present form, but If it was
materially changed or altered they
wanted that clause to remain in the
bill In order that they might reject the
provisions.

Depredations of Federal Troops.

Senator Patterson offered in the SEN

Sedgwick is located, just within the

For some time a large force of clerks

Cuban Commissioners Views.
l.. V. Abad, Cuban commissioner to
the United States, representing the
economical associations OF Cuba, said
yesterday regarding Mr.. Thurber's testi-
mony:
The fact that Mr.. Havemeyer gave
a few hundred dollars to Mr.. Thurber
proves the lukewarmness of the trust
for what could be done in the way OF
distributing literature with such a sum?
The Cuban commission was absolutely
ignorant OF the fact that Mr.. Thurber
had received anything from Mr.. Have
meyer until he so stated in his testi-
mony yesterday before the committee.
with reference to the expenses paid
from the treasury of Cuba by order OF
General Wood. the only regret of the
Cubans is that General Wood spent so
little and if Mr.. Thurber spent the en-
tire $4,000 in literature, Cuban money
vas never better expended in the opin-
ion OF all those who have been working
for the prosperity of our land, and who
desire to strengthen the bonds of friend
ship which should always unite the Unit
ed States and Cuba.

CLYDE FITCH ILL.

NEW YORK, June 12.-Word has been
received by a friend of Mr.. Clyde Fitch
in this city that the playwright will prob
ably have TO undergo an operation for
appendicitis, and that his condition is
serious.

from Mr.. Fitch. who was then in Flor

Berne. Switzerland, to see a specialist In
regard 10 the disease, which was already
threatening.
MIR Fitch's friends in this city have ex-
pressed surprise concerning the news of
a proposed operation, as 1t was supposed
that his stay at Salsomaggiore, where he
had been taking the waters, had entirely
relieved him of any indisposition which
might have affected him
il was said that he had again begun
work on play for Mary Mannering.

The hope of the Appropriation Com
mittee and the District Committee is
that the personal tax bill as now framed
will raise about $4,000 a year. The
Senate bill would have given revenue
OF 81 000, 900. II IS estimated.
Another feature of the appropriation
bill will be provision for a small loan
to the District by the United States
Treasury. If any is needed. for the com
pletien of important works.
The plan for a loan of s1o.00O.000 has
been abandoned for this session at least.
