THE HOUSE

Washington, April 19.-After the turbu- lent scenes of yesterday making the pas sage of the revised Cuban reciprocity bill. the House settled down to routine busi- ness today. An opportunity was found however. for the two clements in the recent struggle to give expression to their feelings. This occurred while the forti- hcation appropriation bill was under con- sideration. MT. Grosv nor (Ohio) one of the Ways and Means leaders said that the amendment which the opponents Of the Ways and Means Commitete had inRrsfted upon the Payne bill not only wiped out the differcntial on sugar, hut also did away with the countervsilins duty of the DnEley law. Mir Weeks Mich. made spirited rejoinder. In be- half of those who opposed the Ways and Means Committee. He frankly com ceded that the motive of the opposition had been to kill the reciprocity bill The fertilization appropriation bill was passed and the conference report on the legl glsla- tive appropriation bill agreed to.

coNGREssMAN's SCHEME
Negro Will Be Shown in His \ Native Element.
Senator. Frye of Maine and Speaker Henderson May cSme--Prssident
 Roosevelt May Accompany the Ogden Party

A
 Washington. April Especial )--The impending row over tho Crumpacker resolution to asitste the negro question in the South is likely to be settled in a novel and effective plan of Representa- tive Charles Thompson of the Iuskegee, Ala. District.
 lie will take twenty leading Republican .Ccnsressmen, including Mir. Crumpacker himself, on d weeks visit to his planta- tion home in Macon County, Ala, leaving here May 2oth. They will be shown the Southern negro in his highest type. rep resented by the students of Booker Wash ington's school, and also in his lowest , type, as represented by the cotton field hands. Not one of the party except MT thompson has ever seen the negro in his native element.
 in the party will be Senator Frye of Maine Representatives Crumpacker of Indisna. litilcfeld of Maine, Jenkins of N isconsin, ketchem of New York, South ard of Ohio, Conner Of Iowa, Smith of Iowa, Leavison of Iowa, Barney of Wis consin, Brown of Wisconsin, Roberts of Massachusetts, Gillett of Massachusetts. and others.
 speaker Henderson has been invited and will go if he can leave Congress. The Consrcssmen will be accompanied by their wives.
 Mir. Thompson invited the Congressmcn to be his guests primarily because they are personal friends of his, but the deep political significance of such visit can hardy be estimated. There has>slw6ys bc"n s conversion of Northern to the Southern view of the negro question when they visit the South and see the condir tions for themselves and q conversion Of these twenty political leaders may lead tc unexpected results especially as some of them arc strong advocates of the Crumpackcr agitation at this time. The spct they will visit is not only in State that would be deeply affected by the passage uf such d measure. but it is in Inc very heart of the ;Blackbclt of the South.

ARGUMENT DEFECTIVE.
Won Vlissingen's Letter Will Be Sub mitted to Attorney General.

Washington. April 19.--It is stated that the argument addressed to the President in an open letter by Attorney Peter Van vIissingen of Chicago. to demonstrate the unlawful character of the mule snip ments from Port Chalmette, will be sub mitted to the Attorney General, as have been all the other papers in the case. ! At the State Department 1t is pointed out that the argument. while ingenious. is defecive,, because it Is founded upon probable ignorance of the basis upon which the articles in the treaty of Wash- ington relative to war material were drawn. Thus. for instance. it Is held that by exact agreement between the counsel for tue United. States and for Great Bttsin,'. the. particular articles or the treaty referred to in the argument of the Chicago attorney were limitcdl en- tirely to tho fitting out of naval ships, and that commercial operations of the proceeding at Chaimette were expressly excluded from the prohibition.
 There are other flaws indicated, but the above is the most substantial.
