Senator Hoar Introduces Bill
for Increase.
Vice President and Speaker to Re

bcrs $500 Per Annum.

Senator Hoar yesterday introduced a
bill to increase the salaries of members
of Congress to $500 year. and the
salaries of the Vice President of the
United States and the Speaker of TIE
House of Representatives to SIS a
year
The bill! also provides that the s.iary
of the President pro ten. of the Sem
ate shall be $4,000 when either The Pres
idential or the Vice Presidential office
shall be vacant. and the President pro
TEN. of the Senate shall perform the du-
ties Of the President Of the Senate
No Provision for Vice President
By curious oversight. the measure
was first sent to the Senate with no pro
vision for the Vice President Later in
the day. when Senator Hoar-s attention
was called to this, he had the necessary
interiineation made in the bill
The measure is similar to a portion
OF the judicial salaries bill as it was
originally introduced. The portion of
that bill increasing the salaries of meia-
bers Of Congress was stricken cut in com
mittee aat later when an amendment
was offered providing for the Increase.
ii was lost In view of this fact it is not
thought probable that the present bill
will pass.

LEPERS FILE PETITION.
Oppose the Placing of MOIOkni Set
tIement Under National Control.


There was one petition received by the
Senate yesterday which the clerks whose
duties include the indexing and handling
of petitions wished to touch only with
tongs.
This was owing to the fact that the
312 signers of the petition were lepers.
belonging to the leper colony OF Molokai.
in the Hawaiian Islands.
The document was presented by Sen
ator Foraker who is chairman of the
Committee on Pacific Islands and Porto
Rico, whose Jurisdiction extends over
legislation affecting the Hawaiian group.
The petition is in the kanaka language
and the signatures in great part are dis
tinctly native. and lack the Christian
name.
translation of the petition shows that
it is protest against the = sage OF the
bill introduced in the House ~ Delegate
Wilcox of Hawaii to make ne Molokai
settlement a national leper colony under
the control OF the Federal Government.
The lepers state they are satisfied to re-
main under the care and control of the
Territorial government and board of
health, and strongly urge that the islands
re not segregated, as is proposed in the
Wilcox bill. They designate themselves
the unfortunate residents of the Molokai
settlements"
The petition was referred to the Com
mittce on Pacific Islands and Porto Rico.

day concluded it's hearings on the Bar
tholdt resolution prohibiting enlisted mu-
sicians from competing with civilians en-
gagged in the same profession.
Mr.. Herman J. Schulties. who appeared

that there was at least an implied con-
tract between the Government and the
members of the band that they should be
allowed to accept private engagements.
otherwise the band would be unable to
secure such talented artists.

Prof. Will Haley appeared in behalf OF
the civilian musicians, and declared that
the Marine Band underbid the civilians
Lieutenant Santelmann. who was present,
vigorously denied the charge.
Prof. Haley read two letters from Sister
Agnes. of st. Apne's. tending to show that
she had written to Prof. Haley in regard
to engaging his band for an entertain
ment, and had later secured the services
of the Marine Band. because it was neces-
sary to keep expenses down as low as
possible.
No Evidence of Cut Rate.
Mr.. Emerson. of the committee, de-
clared that that was no evidence that
the Marine Band had urderbid Prof.
Haley. Prof. Haley admitted this
Prof. Haley contended the musicians of
the Marine Band were better paid than
civilian musicians who had TO buy thei.
own uniforms, instruments and music,
and received no allowances.

Mr.. Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor. concluded
his argument yesterday before the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs in favor
Of the Chinese Exclusion bill.

vigorously Attacks Proposition to
Discriminate Between ColOred and
Inroiorcd Variety. by Taxing One
nnd Not the other.

The fight between creamery butter and
oleomargarine was continued in the House
yesterday. 1t is probable that vote on
the measure will not be reached before
the early part of next week.
An agreement was reached yesterday
morning to continue the general debate
for two days. and to allow one day addi-
tional for discussion of the measure under
the five minute rule. number of amend
ments will then be offered.
This would carry the bill over until
Friday afternoon. but it is probable that
vote will not be taken until Monday.
Representative Hemenway in charge Of
the legislative, executive, and judicial ap-
preparation bill, which was reported yes
terday. will make an effort this morning
to have that measure taken up today,
and in case he succeeds, the oleo bill will
be temporarily sidetracked.
Opposition to the Measure.
Representative Allen Dem, KyD opened
the discussion yesterday in opposition to
the measure. He attacked it upon con-
stitutionai grounds, and advocated the
bill reported by the minority of the COM
mittee.
During the course Of his remarks. Mr..
Allen charged Mr.. Knight, the secretary
of the National Dairy Association. with an
attempt to accomplish his defeat for cleo
tion to Congress because he (Allen) had
opposed the passage Of the Grout bill at
the last session. Mr.. Moon (Dem., Tenn
said he did not think the minority bill
went far enough, but that the majority
bill was also defective. Mr.. Kluttz tDem.,

APPEAL In MOVES CASE.
Attorney General Knox Sets Hearing
for Saturday Morning.

Mr.. P. j. Mclaughlin. the attorney of
Judge Noyes and his colleagues, of Alas
ka. who were recently convicted of con-
tempt by the Court OF Appeals at San
Francisco, appeared before Attorney Gen
eral Knox yesterday in behalf of his
clients.
As 1t developed that ii was the purpose
of Mr.. Mclaughlin to make an attack
against the Court of Appeals. the Attor-
ney General decided that it would not be
fair to grant the hearing unless the court
vas represented. The hearing was ac-
cordingly postponed until Saturday morn
ing.
Judge Noyes is said to be dying in a
San Francisco hospital of consumption,
brought on by the strain and worry of the
trial.
The discussion of the newspaper
stories regarding Judge Noyes and other
Alaskan officials came up again yester-
day in the Senate in the consideration
of the urgent deficiency bill.
Mr.. Hale. who is in charge of the
measure, stated that ne hoped the
Alaskan scandal would not be allowed
to delay the bill but it did. nevertheless.

HOUSE DIVIDED ON
OLEOMARGARINE BILL

cies. you must pay tax of 10 cents a
pound"
He vigorously attacked the proposition
to discriminate between colore1 and un-
colored oleo by taxing the one and not
taxing the other. BY the same principle
it would be as well to propose tax on
crude oil and none on refined oil, on bay
horses and not on white horses. on blue
fish and not on whitefish. to tax coiored
men and exempt white men.
Principle of Sumptuary LAWS.
Such principle. he said, was repug-
nant 10 our Federal institutions. but was
tl- principle of the sumptuary laws. The
farmer. in whose interest the measure
was proposed. would not be deceived
thereby. 1t was admitted, he said, that
there was no fraud in the manufacture of
oieo, but only in its sale. The proposed
bill, he asserted, would not meet that
fraud.
Mr.. Boutell argued that if the bill did
not prohibit the manufacture of oleo. as
its advocates said it would not. then 1t
would produce revenue, yet there was no
need for revenue from such a source.
While the bill was pending the chair
man of the Ways and Means Committee
had presented report on the bill to re-
peal the war revenue tax, because it was
adding surplus to the Treasury. Why,
therefore, he asked, was there need for
an additional revenue measure?
Mr.. McCIeary Advocates BILL
Mr. McCleary (Rep.. Mimi advocated
the passage of the bill. He gave brief
history of the manufacture of oleomar-
garine. and said that in thirty-two States
its manufacture and sale were under GER

REPRESENTATIVES PETITION
AGAINST CUBAN CONCESSIONS
House; and En-
peaed 10 PeUena Faoabe Report BY the Ways and Means
-SenahA

This is really what prompts the Ways
and Means Committee to ignore the
Presidents recommendation for Iegisla-
tion to aid Cuba.
From all that could be learned last
evening the Administration forces will
transfer their efforts to the Senate. where
an effort will be made to amend the
Philippine tariff bill by attaching a rider
making % per cent reduction in the
Cuban tariff.
A move of this character. it is beliey-
ed, would tie the hands of the members
in the House who are anxious to have
the Dingley act revised.
