ton and also into the legal status Of its
charter. 1t is also provided that the United
States government shall not be liable for
the support of the home.
The plans for the building are made sub
ject to revision and approval by the Secre-
tary OF War. The bill provides also that

Senate bill authorizing the extension of
Euclid avenue from University place to 18th
street. Euclid avenue is an extension west
ward of 14th street Of Roanoke street, and
with the proposed extension of half block

a mile north of Florida avenue The bill
carries an appropriation Of $4,000 for open
Ing and paving and provides for the usual
condemnation proceedings.

Alleged Usurpation.

Prior to the announcement of the confer
ees Mr.. Cannon offered a resolution that
the managers on the part OF the House at
the conference on the disagreeing votes
of the two houses be instructed not to rec
modification of the amendment that will,
under authority of the army appropriation
bill. permit the expenditure of any sum for
construction of permanent buildings at es-
tablished military posts, except as author
lied by the revised statutes. This resolu-
tton has direct bearing upon the appropria-
tion Of Si.U00.oeO for barracks and quarters
which the Senate amendments provided for.
MIR. cannon said the amendments were
eubversive of the rules OF the House.
The committee on military affairs had
osurped its functions and presumed to take
sway from the committee on appropria-
lions rights given II by the law.
Mr. Richardson CTenn.J said II was a
most unusual thing. that had been done.
and he hoped the House would see to II
mat such things should not be permitted
to go On.
Mr.. Hull. chairman OF the military af
fairs committee. In reply said that the com
mfttee had considered these amendments
and in order to have a full and free con.
ference and In order that 1T might have
something to trade on. the committee dis.
agreed to- all the Senate amendments. He
said he thought 1t ul-tmed to instruct con-
ferees before any conference had taken
place.

o'BRIEN AGAIN TESTIFIES,
Did Not Have His Explosive Bullets
on Hand.

Corporal Richard O'Brien was again on
the witness stand today when the Senate
committee on the Philippines met, but he
added little to what he had said yesterday
He failed to produce the sample bullets Of
which he had spoken yesterday, intimating
that they were explosives. He said he had
sent to Massachusetts for the bullets but
that they had not yet arrived. He was
questioned in regard to the minute appear
ance of the wounds which he said ha been
produced by the explosive bullets. He said
that one Of the old men killed at La Nog,
when they were advancing toward the
American soldiers with flag of truce as
described yesterday afternoon, h. the en-
tire top of his head shot off, while an
others abdomen was split open. In the lat
ter case the bullet had first entered the
abdomen and then passed through one of
the mans arms. there being a smooth hole
where the ball entered the arm and a
large one where 1t left it.
In reply to questions from Senator's Bey-
eridge and Culberson the witness said he
mad not been very close to the bodies when
he saw the wounds; nor could he explain
domen OF one Of the victims and again in
his arm.
Nor do I think that any one else could
remarked Senator Bevertdge.
OBrien also admitted in response tn
questions from Senator Dietrich that the
firing was tpdisCriminate and that the two
men with the flag might have been killed
by bullets from guns in the hands Of others
than United States soldiers. The witness
also said he knew Of no experiments with
explosive bullets.
Mr.: Patterson took occasion to express
his disbelief in the theory that the Amert
can soldiers had been supplied with other
than proper bullets and other members of
the committee Endorsed the statement
The witness then was excused until he
could secure the sample bullets.
Senator Lodge said he had received tele-
gram from Capt. Mcdonald and would i'm
mediately subpoena him as witness in
view Of OBrien's Testimony
