GENERAL DEFICIENCY BILL PASSED

But Afterwards WithdrawS
His Protest.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, June 26.-At o'clock to-
night, at the end of nine-hour session
and of debate lasting night and day
for a week, the House passed the Phil
ippine Civil bill practically as it came
from the committee. 1t was a party
vote-141- -97-with the exception Of Mr.
Mccall, of Massachusetts, who voted
with the Democrats. The minority sub
stitute for the establishment of a tenn
porary government in the islands and
their permanent independence as soon as
a stable government could be establish
ed, was defeated IS to 1885,
The debate during the day was at
times of a lively character.
The Democrats offered a multitude of
amendments, but all were voted down,
including one offered by Mr.. Patterson,
Of Tennessee, to prohibit slavery or in
voluntary servitude in the islands. The
greatest interest attachedsto an amend
ment offered by Mr.. Mccall (Republi-
cam of Massachusetts, to the end of the
bill to declare the policy of the United
States to be to develop the capacity of
the Filipinos for self government and
pledging the faith of the United States
to grant them self-g government He
supported an amendment in an eloquent
speech and the Democrats challenged
their political adversaries to declare
their future policy. Mr.. Grosvenor, of
Ohio, and Mr. Cooper, of Wisconsin, said
it would be unwise to mortgage the fu-
ture by making such a declaration now
and the latter quoted Governor Taft as
saying that such a promise now would
tend to prevent the pacification of the
islands The amendment was lost. SO to
128 1t was a strict party vote except for
Mr.. Mccall and Mr.. Littlefield, of
Maine, who voted with the Democrats
for the amendment
Before the consideration of the Philip
pine bill was resumed today the House
by a vote of 252-S adopted the confer
ence report on the Isthmian aCnal bill,
thus accepting in toto the Senate bill.
The bill now goes to the President.

SPLIT IN REPUBLICAN CAMP.
Two Separate State Conventions are Held in
Arkansae.
(By the Associated Press.)

Little Rock Ark, June 26.-Two sepa-
rate Republican State conventions were
held here today as the result of fac
tional differences. One convention nomi-
mated Charles d. Greaves, of Hot Springs,
for governor, and protested by resolu-
tion against what it terms the unfair
practices and methods of the so-called
Republican Central Committee" and the
arbitrary dictation of boss rule, other
wise known as Claytonism.
The other convention called the regu-
lar assemblage, met this afternoon and
busted itself in the appointment of COM
mittees. 1t received telegram of cor
dial greeting from General Powell Clay
ton, Ambassador to Mexico Clayton's
name was cheered by the regulars. He
was reelected a member at large of the
State committee.
After the transaction of routine busi-
ness recess was taken till p. m The
convention that nominated Greaves for
governor adopted a platform which en-
dorses the administration of President
Roosevelt and pledges him support, Sin
the continuance of our national prosper
lty and the maintenance at home and
abroad of the nations honor
Should he be the Republican standard
bearer in 1904" the platform continues,
1--WE pledge an increased Republican
vote from the State of Arkansas"
It endorses the Cuban reciprocity
views of President Roosevelt, favors i'm
mediate building of an inter oceanic
canal and endorses the efforts of the ma
tional administration to enforce the pro-
vision of the Sherman Trust Law.

CALLERS AT THE PALACE.
Edward Secs Several Members of the Royal
Family.
(By the Associated Press.l

(By the Associated PreSs.)
London, June 26.-King Edwards prog
ress in convalescence occasions the
greatest satisfaction in all official cir
cles. t.s.
His Majesty already is displaying the
greatest interest in all public questions.
and is expressing his gratitude over the
evidence of the worlds solicitude by
opening a number of kilograms with his
own hands. This action excited him
slightly, caused some restlessness dur
ing the night and aroused some triling
solicitude on the part of the attendants.
Improvement in the Kings condition
this morning was most marked. Every
body in Buckingham Palace was de-
lighted and high hopes are entertained
that his convalescence will be much
more speedy than was expected last
night.
At no time has there been a serious
suggestion of the establishment of a
regency. The most that was done was
in the way of pure speculaton-a sug-
gestion that the Prince of Wales might
act for his father, as King Edward
(then Prince of Wales) frequently did for
Queen Victoria in former days and, par
ticularly during her last illness, but
without his having formally been ap-
pointed regent.
King Edward saw several members of
his family during the morning. The
Queen remained at the palace, but the
Princess Victoria drove out.
According to the Birmingham Post,
Immediately after hearing of King Ed
wards illness, Emperor William tele-
graphed to Prince Henry of Prussia, who
was in London, setting forth how he
was moved by the news, and Offering to
come Immediately to London to see his
uncle if there was any immediate danger.
Prince Henry is said to have replied
with a. reassuring message.
Among the callers at Buckingham Pal
ace today were the Prince and Princess
of Wales, Prince and Princess Henry of
Prussia, the Duke, of Cambridge, most
OF the special ambassadors still in Lon
don and many of the diplomatists.

THE SURRENDER OF MANILA.
Dewey saysIt Was Given Up to Him When
he Sunk Spain's Fleet.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, June 26.-Admiral Dew
ey made a statement before the Senate
Committee on the Philippines today con-
cerning the early operations at Manila
when he was in command of the Ameri-
can naval forces in the Philippine waters.
The admiraIs statement contributed al
important addition to the history of the
surrender of the city of Manila. This con-
sisted of a positive statement by the
admiral to the effect that the city had
been surrendered to him at the time
that the Spanish fleet was sunk and that
when the city did surrender it was in
pursuance of a definite understanding
between himself and the Spanish gov
ernor general.
Admiral Dewey said that during the
naval engagement several guns had been
fired at him from the shore batteries, and
that as soon as the Spanish squadron
was destroyed he steamed toward the
city, sending word to the governor that
if another shot was fired from the shore
he would fire upon the city. "The gov
ernor replied" the admiral went on,
that if did not fire upon the city the
shore batteries would remain silent. The
Spanish flag was not taken down, but
white flags were raised.
'It was a surrender, and if 1 had had
with me 5000 troops with which to oc-
cupy the city 1 could have taken it and
held it. / anchored my ships
under his guns 1000 yards and lay there
twenty -four hours During that
time the governor general sent word to
me several times that he want
ed to surrender to me-to the navy I
could not entertain his proposition OF
formal surrender, because of the lack
of troops to take possession of the city.
Admiral Dewey then told of the ar
rival at Manila of Aguinaldo, saying he
had come from Hong Kong on the reve
nue. cutter McCulloch and that upon his
reporting to him on his flagship he had
told him to go ashore and organize his
army. Accordingly Aguinaldo had land
ed, but he came back few hours after
ward apparently discouraged and asked
leave of absence in order to go to Japan.
The admiral said that he dissuaded him
from pursuing this course and urged
him not to give up. He advised him
further to continue his efforts outside
the American lines and gave him seven

Central Deficiency Bill.
(By the Associated Pregg.l

Washington, June 26.-During the COM
paratively brief time the Senate was in
session today Mr.. Morgan, of Alabama,
presented the conference report on the
Isthmian Canal Bill, the House confer
ees accepting the Senate substitute. On
motion of the Alabama Senator the re-
port was agreed to without comment.
The General Deficiency Bill the last of
the big supply measures, was passed
practically without debate. A slight pro-
test was made against the appropriations
of $500, 600 for the Buffalo Exposition and
$16O 900 for the Charleston Is. c. Expo
sition, but finally they were included in
the bill. The measure also carries $45,
OG0 for the payment Of the expenses of
the last illness and death of President
Mckinley, that amount including the pay
of the physicians.
When the appropriations Of $590,000
for the Buffalo Pan-American Exposition
and 100000 for the Charleston Is CO
Exposition were reached Mr.. Bailey, Of
Texas, protested He insisted that if
Congress should meet the present de
mands it would be called upon to meet
still greater deficit in the st. Louis
Exposition. He thought it was a gross
misanplication of public money.
Other Senators, Mr.. Hale, Mr. Spooner
and Mr.. Teller, while they sympathized
with Mr.. Bailey's views, thought that

cided difference. Yale did her work with
more ease than Harvard
The crews entered the lone avenue of
yachts in grand style. Harvard's cox
swaine dashed a little water in the face
of McGraw, who was rowing up to the
limit of his power. Little by little Yale
increased her lead until at the 312 mile
flag she was nine full seconds ahead of
Harvard
1t was now squirt for the last half
mile of the race. Yale raised her stroke
to SO and then to "a. Harvard held hers
at "a for minute but had to drop it
at last to 32 The Harvard coxswain
made a bad mess of his steering over this
last mile of the race.
Long before the crews reached the 3R
mile flag it was apparent that Jackson
steered his eight miles almost squarely
into the f1agpost, so that the oars hanged
against it and the oarsmen lost the bene-
fit of two or three seconds of time. Sud-
denly the flag dropped for Yale. The
blues time was 1920, just ten seconds
slower than the record made by the ia
nous Yale crew of 1888.
Harvard's time was 2O93, which gave
to Yale the victory by four good boat
lengths. Just as the finish flag fell and
Yale's men stopped rowing, Waterman,
the bow in the Yale boat, dropped limp
over the side of the shell. He finally
got into his seat and rowed over to the
launch with the rest of the men. Har-
wards oarsmen were all literally pumped
out at the finish.
The story of the freshman race is
easily told for the first mile. The Yale
eight got away at 81 strokes to>the min
ute, Harvard at &c. The Yale boys got
the best of the start and held it.
Just beyond the mile flag the Harvard
boys began to spurt. Little by little
they cut down Yales lead until at the
mile and half flag they were leading
Yale.
The Harvard boys put their soroke up
to SO and Yale raised hers to 81, in one
river between freshmen crews. The flags
at the finish dropped and no one could
tell which had dropped first. The
watches made it dead heat in 1913,
and a moment later the judges an
nounced that the race was a draw. The
Yale freshmen had rowed the two miles
in just two seconds slower time than the
Yale varsity.
The four cared race was victory for
ward four got the lead at the crack Of
the pistol and never lost it, leading by
trife over two lengths at the finish.
Harvard's time was 11:19h; Yale's
11:25h.
