WILL CALL MISS LOPEZ
DECISION OF SENATE PHILIP
PINE COMMITTEE.
Belief Expressed That a Vote on the
Government Bill May Be Had
Next Week.

The Senate committee on Philippines to-
day decided to call as witness before that
committee Miss Clemencia Lopez, sister
of Sixto Lopez. The lady is now in Boston,
and she will be asked to come from that
city to Washington to give her testimony,
although the date of her appearance has
not been fixed There was some opposition
to calling her on the ground that she is
Filipino, but this opposition was overcome
by the argument that she is in this country
and that on this account her testimony is
easily available. Senators Lodge, Hale and
BURROWS voted with the democratic men,
bers to ask her attendance
The committee also discussed the prob
abilities as to securing, vote on the Phil
lpplne government bill, and the democratic
members all gave assurance that they had
no desire to prolong the debate beyond
legitimate bounds. The opinion was gen.
orally expressed that the vote could be
taken by the middle of next week
senator Rawlins, senior democratic MEM
Der on the committee, has expressed the
opinion that vote would be reached on the
Dill toward the end Of the present week
Other members of the committee think the
date of the vote may be postponed until
some time next week, but none of them
place the vote later than the oath instant
They say that whenever the debate is ex-
hausted they will agree to vote, but that
they object to naming day for vote until
they are quite certain that there is nothing
more to say pertinent to the subject.
The consideration of the bill this week
will be interspersed with the consideration
of the appropriation bills. Today was set
apart for the fertilization bill and tomorrow
for the agricultural appropriation bill.
Neither of these measures will consume
great deal of time, and on each day 1t is
expected there will be time left for the
consideration of the Philippine bill. Sena
tor Stewart will speak tomorrow in support
of the pending bill; Senator Spooner also
probably will be heard on the bill during
the week. Among the opponents of the bill
stu to be heard are Senators Clay and
Money. 1t Is probable that considerable
debate will grow out of the speeches OF
Senators Foraker and Spooner. Senator
Lodge has given notice that tomorrow he
VIII move to meet at II o'clock each day to
facilitate consideration of the Philippine
bill

HARBoR REGULATIONS.
Amendment Submitted by City solici-
tor for Transmission to CONGRESS-.


A. b. Duvall. the city solicitor, has re-
turned to the District Commissioners the
communication of Harbormaster Sutton
calling attention to the necessity for an
amendment to the act of Congress approx
ed March 2 1895, ITO establish harbor
regulations In the District of Columbia"
respecting its provision that no vessel
shall be permitted to anchor in the Wash
ington channel of the Potomac river be-
tween the ended lines of P or X streets
south"
An amendment is deemed desirable on
account of the ambiguity of this phrase
ology aid in view of a decision in the
Police Court to the effect that the area in
which vessels cannot anchor Is limited only
to the space between the north and south
lines of each Of said streets The act of
Congress 1t is desired to amend has been
carried into the code. Solicitor Duvall says
the suggestion of the harbormaster that
the amendment should provide that no ves-
sci be permitted to anchor from LOCO feet
south Of street to the north line of X
street south extended, each point to be
designated by white buoy, can be ac-
praph Of section 500 Of the code.
Mr.. Duvau submits the draft of an
amendment which is as follows:
No vessel shall be permitted to anchor
IN the Washington channel of the Potomac
river between point 1000 feet south of
the south line Of P street and the north
line Of K street south extended each point
to be designated by a white buoy, and all
vessels coming to anchor above the north
line of K street south aforesaid shall come
to anchor as near the flats as possible and
so that the channel will not be obstructed,
and all vessels coming to anchor shall be SO
moored by the use of both anchors as to
prevent obstruction of the channel within
400 feet Of the nearest wharf, the said an
chorage to continue only twenty-four hours
unless otherwise ordered or directed by the
harbormaSter,"
