LEADERS MORE CONFIDENT.
Believe the Cuban Reciprocity Bill
Will Pass the House.

Believe the Cuban Reciprocity Bill
Will Pass the House.
Washington, April 16.-With the
close of the Cuban reciprocity de-
bate in the house yesterday the lead
ers announced that all danger of the
bills being weighted down with
undesirable amendments was over,
and that they felt assured the bill
would pass in the shape in which II
came from the committee. AS the
bill in its present form is sure to com
mand threefourths of each side of
the house, its passage was certain if
it successfully passed the stage
when amendments could be offered
The only cause of anxiety heretofore
has been the possibility that enough
Republicans would join with the Dem
ocrats to overrule the chair and tack
on to the bill an amendment to abol-
ish the differential on refined sugar.
All the energies of the leaders have
been directed therefore to bringing
pressure to bear ON the reealeitrant
Republicans to induce them to re
frain from aiding this PLAN and lastt
evening at the close of the session
of the house it was announced that
the entire Republican delegations
from Michigan and California who
constitute the head and front of the
opposition, had agreed not to vote to
override the ruling of the chair. Mr..
Watson, of Indiana, who is acting as
the whip for the majority, does not
believe over a dozen Republicans a.
the outside will join the Democrats
On this proposition. 1t would require
more than 20 Republican votes to
place on the bill the amendment
which might endanger its ultimate
passage, as several Democrats, it is
understood, also have declared their
intention to stand by the ruling Of
the chair.
An unsuccessful effort was made
yesterday again by Mr.. Payne to Sc.
cure an agreement to limit the gen
eral debate When the house ad
journed yesterday there remained So
members who desire to speak.
The debate yesterday was without
particular interest. The speakers
were Messrs. Swanson. Of Virginia,
and White, of Kentucky, for the bill,
and Messrs. S. w. Smith, of Michi.
gan; Dayton, West Virginia; Bur
CESS. Texas; Myers, Louisiana. and
Sutherland, Utah. against 1t.

Bower Makes improvements

Adam Bowers Barber shop has al
ways been a favorite place with the
public OF Morgantown. The best at
tention and the best BARRIERS have
always been given his customers.
He is better fixed than ever to look
after the comfort of those who pat
ronize him now. Five BARRIERS are
on hand at all times so that there
need be no long waits. Drop in
and be through with your shave or
your hair cut while you are waiting
in other shops where there are not
enough BARRIERS to care for the peo-
pie. Bowers rooms have been re-
modelled and refurnished and they
would be a credit to place much
larger than Morgantown.

VOTING TO BEGIN TODAY.
Chinese Exclusion Bill and Amend.
ments to Come Up For Action.
Some Voting Yesterday.

Washington. April 16.-The debate
on the Chinese exclusion bill was
practically concluded yesterday, and
voting on the bill and amendments
will begin at l o'clock today By
general consent a vote was taken
yesterday on two important amend
ments, offered by Mr.. Fairbanks, of
Indiana, striking out the definition as
to Chinese students and teachers, and
they were agreed to without division.
These changes were made with a view
to reconcfling some of the opposition
to the measure which has been di-
reoted against the rigid restrictions
on students and teachers, and the un-
necessary inconvenience this would
impose on the educated Chinese
classes coming to this country.
The debate was participated in by
Senators Heitfeld, of Idaho; Penrose,
of Pennsylvania, and Turner, Of
Washington. in favor of the bill, and
Senators Pritchard, of North Caro-
lima. and Spooner, of Wisconsin, in
opposition. Mr. Turner made the as
sertfon that politics had crept into the
discussion, and that most of the
members of the majority are opposed
to the bill This brought out sharp
rejoinder from Mr.. Spooner, who
maintained that politics had not fig.
ured in the discussion, and that the
opposition to the present bill was due
entirely to the conflict with the
treaty and NOT becauSe of any onnoSi
ton to Chinese exclusion, which was
an established doctrine of the govern.
ment.

Rumors of Settlement Between G. sIn,..s4ios. Cor, rn ss T,

Rumors of settlement Between Gov
 er1ment and Securities Company.
 CHICAGO, May 21.-An amicable understanding is about to be effected between. the federal government at Washington and the Northern Securi- ties company, according to The Daily News. It says that for some time friends of J. F. Morgan and J. J. Hill have been importuning President Roosevelt to have the suit against the company called off. From one of the stockholders of the Northern Securities company it has been learned that as- surances have been given by the fed eral officials that if certain modifica- tions in the company's financial con- struction be made the attorney general would consider withdrawing the gov ernment's suit against the company. 'sThe chief charges consider traffic ar- engagements" says The News, land it may be stated on the best authority that the alterations will be complied 1 with.
 "One of the largest stockholders in the Northern Securities company states that the association will be so reorgan- ized as to make practically nothing more of the concern than mere hold l ing company. There will be an admin l istratiye head of financial character, but for the rest the Burlington, the Northern Pacific and the Great North ern will be absolutely independent"

POLICE COURT DoINGS.
A Baby Carriage Made Business for
 the Court This Morning.


 A baby carriage was the chief cause of contention in the city court to-day before Judge Burpee. The owner or the carriage was Mrs Margaret Kane of 352 Washington avenue. Mrs Kane and her daughter Lizzie, aged Il years, as we'll as MT Kane testified that the carriage was invaluable to them not in matter of money but through asso- citation. Mrs Kane said it was worth s but she had been offered S6 for It, while her husband said he would not give it for $50 simply because it was a present to his little girl. At all events the carriage was in the shed for two years and Eugene Bovally, who was charged with breaking it up for kind ing wood said it was no good and was in the way and it's front wheels were missing for some time and it was 1n general way done up. Attorney Rus sell, who defended Bovally, said also that if the vehicle was worth $50
 owner would not let it go to ruin for two years in an outhouse. Prosecutor Durant said that no matter what it was worth Bovally had no right to break 1t Ip. There was a great deal more said about the carriage but it was cut short by Judge Burpee saying that technically Bova1ly had no right to break the carriage, civilly he was amenable for the loss of the carriage no matter whether it was worth only five cents and criminally it did not amount to much anyway so he contin- ued the matter for thirty days to await developments.
 Thomas Murphy was found wander ing around East Clay sctreet last nigh dragging his coat after him looking fo1 trouble He was arrested by Officer Brearton and fined $10 and costs.

CHIEF OF TAMMANY HALL.

Murphy the Man-Sullivan-Croker Fac
 ton Elects Judge O'Gorman.
 In the first skirmish for control of Tammany Hall. the election of the grand sachem of the Tammany society, held in New York on Monday nighr, victory perched in the banner of the Sullivan-Croker faction, which, through the accession to it's ranks of former District Attorney Gardiner, elected Justice James A. O'Gorman of the su- preme court over former former Mayor Van Wyck by vote of to 4. Justice O'Gorman was personally selected as the candidate of the anti-Carroll ele- ment by Charles F. Murphy, whom Senator Sullivan has chosen for leader of the Tammany organization. When the executive committee meets on Thursday MT CarrolPs plan for a lead erless Tammany will be defeated, and Mir Murphy will take up the reins of power which Lewis Nixon relinquished last week Wednesday.
 After the election of Senator George w. Plunkitt as father of the council. to succeed Asa Bird Gardiner. Monday evening, former Fire Commissioner John J. Scannell made brief but forci- ble speech, in which he pleaded with his fellow sachems to support Mir Van Wyck, who, he said, had always been faithful to his friends.
 On the first ballot Justice O'Gorman :. received seven votes and Mir Van Wyck five Patrick Keenan and John Fox. who are among Mir Croker's oldest friends, voted against the former mayor, as had been expected, to show their opposition to the anti Croker eIe- ment.
 When the second ballot was taken MT Scannell, who was one of the tell CTS, discovered that his spech had not fallen on barren soil, for there were eight votes for Justice O'Gorman and four for Mir Van Wyck. It needed nc extensive calculations to show to the sachems that Colonel Gardiner had de serted the former mayor and had cast his lot with the Sullivan Croker com bination, although he had publicly de nounced MT Croker repeatedly in re cent months, through pique at having failed to obtain the nomination for dis trict attorney last fall.
 Those who voted for Justice O'Gor man were: Charles F. Murphy, Danie F. McMahon. John Fox, Thomas ] Dunn, Patrick Keenan, Asa Bird Gard iner. Maurice Featherson and Georg W. Plunkitt
 MT Van Wyck's supporters were Johl F. Carroll, John W. Keller, John , Scannell and Randolph Guggenheime1
