UNION DEPOT BILL RRPoRT.-Gen.
Gillespie, chief OF engineers, returned
yel srdsy to the House District COM
mittee the Senste bill for union depot
iu Washington. Nothing Is said about
the tunnel under Capitol Hill, which is
one OF the matters on which the COM
mittee much desired statement from
the War Department. Secrttiry Root,
10 transmitting the report from Gen.
Gillespie, remarks that about the only
things the department is interested 10
are improvements 10 public buildings
and grounds, Involved in moving the
depot from the Mall and the reeervs
ton OF a sufficient space In front OF the
new depot for the msssiDg and move
ment of military escorts on state &C.
casions. Gen. Gilliespie's report says:
SO far as the parks are concerned, no
objection isseen to the passage OF the
proposed measure, but before favorable
action is taken thereon adequate provi-
sion should be inserted for the protec-
ton of the water supply mains and for
the execution OF the work under the
supervision OF the officer In charge OF
the Washington aqueduct at all points
where the interests OF the squeduct or
any portion OF its water mains are con.
cernsd.
A copy of the bill was referred to the
officer in charge Of public buildings end
grounds, who states that he knows OF
no objection to the enactment OF the
legislation therein proposed.
IL would seem that the subjsc matter
OF this measure peitiins more particu.
lsrly to the government OF the District
OF Columbi aud that the views OF the

CUBAN RECIPROCITY, - President
Roosevelt, as stated yesterday, has be-
gun missionary work among the Sena-
tors with q view of getting enough re-
publican votes to pass the Cuban reci-
procity bill. The opposition Senators
also had q conference.
They yesterday decided that any &C.
tion looking to a reduction in the tariff
rates imposed on Cuban products
should be opposed. Also that any
proposition looking to the payment OF
a rebs to on duties collected from the
CUbans should be supported by t1e
men representing the be, t-sugsr inter-
eats, but that this is IS far as they are
now ready to go.
1t is & question whether these Seps-
tors can stand sgsintt the powerful 10.
fluences which the administration will
bring to bear TO secure enough repub.
licsn votes TO pass reciprocity bill
without the aid Of democratic votss.
Supporters of the administration policy
say that when the inal roundup il
