debate upon the anti-anarcby bill
closed to-day. The incident of the
day was speech-by Mr.. Richard
son, an Alabama Democrat, con
demning the president in severe
terms for references in his mem
olial day oration at Arlington TO
the erlthets applied to Lincoln
and Grant during the Civil war
and to to his allusions to lynch
ings. He declared that the epresl>
dents remarks violated the pro
prieties of the occasion.
Mr.. Littlefeld made a lsgal
argument Of an hour and a half in
closing the debate upon the an.
archy bill. The section of the
senate bill providing a bodyguard
forthe president was stricken from
the bill as precaution IN case
the house substitute failed. An
effort was made TO strike from the
first section of the substitute the
words limiting the crime of kill.

i'll his official capacity, but the
motion was lost, 63 to 50. Only
one of the sections had been dis
posed of when the house adjourn
ed.
Mr.. Richardson of Alabama
during the course of his remarks
recalled the visit Of the late Pre,i.
dent Mckinley at Huntsville, Ala :.
year ago, the reception given
then by Confederate aud Union
veterans. The noble sentiments
Mr.. Mckinley uttered upon thai,
occasion, Mr Richardson said, en-
deared him to the south, and he
told OF the great sorrow felt when
Mir. Mckinley fell at Buffalo.
Ruluctant as he was to DO so, MIR.
Richardson said he felt it was his
painful duty to contrast Mr.. Nc
Knley's sentiments ut Huntsville
with Mr.. Roosevelt's remarks al
Arlington, May 30.
He then read that portion Of
President Roosevclfs speech in
in which he referred to the cpl
thets applied to Grant and Lin
coin, and the resolution passed by
the Confederate congress denounc-
ing the methods Of warfare ON
ployed by the union armies. Mr..
Richardson said he Bbould not so
forget his envitons as to charac.
terlze as it deserved the language
which came from the president OF
the United States upon solemn
memorial day occasion when hon.
or was being done to the thousands
of brave who died in defence Of
their flag. But he would dare to
say that 1T would have hcen far
more appropriate if the president
had referred upon that occasion
to the magnanlmous terms which
Grant accorded Lee at Appomat.
toX which had done 20 much to
reconcile the divided sections.
81 doubt whether there is, :"
said he, "a brave Federal soldier
within the sound of my voice who
would have uttered the sentiments
expressed by the president even
in the heat Of debate, much less
upon memorial day. say the
proprieties of the occasion were
violated when the president re,
ferred to what had been said

STRONG NAVAL FORCE SENT OUT
NORTH ATLANTIC SQUADRON Or
DERED HELD IN READINESS
FOR A MOVE.
COOPERATE WITH OTHER POWERS
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT IS
PREPARED FOR TROU-
BILE,

Washington, Jan. 49, - The govern
ment has information that the uprising
in Venezuela against the rule of Presi-
dent Castro is much more serious than
has been generally understood, and in
view of the possible danger Of an OUT
break of disorder in Caracas and La
Guayra, where American interests are
considerable, orders have been or will
be sent to Rear Admiral Higginson,
cornmander-in-ch chief of the North AT
lantic naval station. who is at Cu]ebra
island, near Porto Rico, with his squad
ron, to prepare for q movement to La
Guayra. The utmost reticence is
shown by officials here, but enough is
known to justify the assertion that the
government fears that a condition OF
anarchy is imminent in the Venezuelan
capital, the result of marked demon
strations against Castro. The orders
to Admiral Higginson are intended as
precautionary with a view to meeting
any condition that may arise.
1t is evident that the government
contemplates the contingency of being
obliged to land armed forces at La
Guayra, and it is desired to have an
| American officer on the spot of sufti-
cient rank to be senior to the highest
ranking officer Of any other navy who
may also find it expedient
To land His Forces.
| French, German and English ships
are being kept in the vicinity of the
Venezuelan coast, and it is probable
that should the necessity arise a joint
| force from these and the American
ships will be sent ashore. AS the Of
ficer of highest rank Admiral Higgin-
son would be in command.
The government has suspected for
some time that the Venezuelan insur-
rection had been we'll planned and that
results might be expected from it. This
suspicion has now been confirmed by
specific advices. Within the past week
extra detachmcnts of marines have
been shipped from Norfolk and else
where to the North Atlantic squadron
with view to having OH hand large
landing party.
These measures of the government
have no bearing on the proposed opera
lions of Germany to bring Venezuela tc
terms or to any desire to participate in
the internal troubles with which Castro
is beset. They are intended solely to
prevent the occurrence of any rlotous
outbreak in Caracas and La Guayra
a condition that may be expected Il
| Castro is overthroWn.

House Constd crs Bill for Permanent
Census Bureau.
Washington, Jan. II. - The house
spent the day considering the Hopkins
Dill to create q permanent census bu.
reau. While The general sentiment was
In favor of n permanent bureau, there
was strong, opposition to the bill as

ly recommitted with instructions to re-
port back a bill containing a plan for
detailed organization of a permanent
census bureau. to include also a pro-
vision to place the present employees

INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
Thinks Compulsory Competition Il
Not Advantageous.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Martia a.
Knapp, chairman Of the interstate COM
merce commission, in referring to the
Chicago meeting of that body, says:
Iii is my personal conviction that the
effect Of consolidation is to lower rates
and to make conditions more favorable
TO: the shipper. Compulsory competi-
tioa is not to the advantage Of shippers
in general. 1t is sure to result in in
justice and inequalities in rates. The
shipper who is best able to pay high
rates gets low ones and the little man
pays high rates. l believe the history
OF ten years attempts to enforce COM
Tet;tic2 between railroads Where such
competition is not natural Will prove
that consolidation will result in econo-
ms iii carriage and advantage to the
shipper Consolidation and proper SUI
c,vision is the proper thing for ship
pers."

DEFICIT IN FRANCE.
Large DecreNne ill the Revenue Re.
I'm. R1,,a

turns for Last Year.
Paris, Jan. IL. = A decrease in the
revenue returns is again shown by the
figures Of the last three months which
are S,271, S4S francs below the estimates,
and 2O,15O,OOO francs below the returns
for the same period of 1900. The total
deficit for 1901, compared with the esti-
mates, is 100000 francs. The falling
off is attributed to the non-importation
of wine in consequence of the excep-
tional crops Of 1900 and 1901, to the re-
arrangement of the excise liquor duties
and to the sugar bounty policy. The
latter is responsible for 100000 francs
OF the deficit.
