PERMANENT CENSUS BUREAU
Senate Passes tue BiIl for inc Estabiish-
 meMf of One.

Washington, Feb. 17.-After an eX- tended debate the senate to- day passed tbe bill establishing a permanent census office. The discussion related principal ly to the collection and publication of statistics representing the production of cotton by the directors of the census. Mir Allison vigorously opposed the pro- vision, maintaining that the cotton sta- tstics gathered by the department of agriculture were complete and accurate and that no necessity existed for their duplication. Despite his opposition the provision was inserted in the bill. Sev- eral other bills of importance on the calendar were passed, among them the one extending the charters of national banks.

RATIFIED BY THE SENATE
TREATY FOR PURCHASE OFDANISH
 WEST INDIES.
Action Taken by Vive Voce Vote After but Little More Than an Hours Dis cusslom-An Amendment Voted Down Some of the Provisions of the Con- ventton Explained

Washington, Feb. 17.-In little more
 than an hours time to-day the senate
 disposed of the treaty with Denmark for the cession of the islands of St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix, con- posing the group of the Antilles known as the Danish West Indies and lying just east of Porto Rico, the United States for a consideration of $5,OOO,O 900. Thus, so far as this country is concern ed, a transaction was consummated which has been under consideration in ternittently since the administration of President Lincoln.
 The treaty and the report on 1t were read at length, and more or less ot a discussion on the proposition was en- gagged in. Senator Cullom as chairman of the committee on foreign relations, made speech explaining the advan- tages of the acquisition of the islands. Senators Bacon and McLaurin, of Miss issippi, each spoke briefly, saying that, whil they could not endorse all the provisions of the agreement, they would place no obstacles in the way of ratifi- cation.
 Senator Bacon moved to amend the treaty by striking out the second para graph of article three, reading as fol- lows: ''The civil rights and the politi- cal status of the inhabitants of the is- lands shall be determined by the con gress. subject to the stipulations con- tained in the present convention"
 He based his opposition to this pro- vision on the general ground that the constitution should extend to- the is- lands when they became a part of the United States. He said, however, that the failure to accept the amendment would not prevent his voting for the treaty for he believed in the Monroe doctrine. Under that doctrine this country could not permit any European power to acquire the islands, and we could not in fairness take this position and then ourselves refuse to buy them when they were for sale. The amend ment was rejected without division.
 Senator Cullom explained all the pro visions of the treaty and gave a detail- ed account of their resources and their commercial value to the United States. He said that the provision affecting the civil rights of the inhabitants was sim liar to the provision on the same sub ject in the Spanish treaty concerning Porto Rico.
 He said that in taking over the is lands the United States would assume no burden of debt, for by the terms of the agreement all claims held by Den mark against the insular treasury would be cancelled. He placed the total If these claims at $2,000, 900. He also explained the nature of the obligations |

WAR TAXES ARE REPEALED
BfLL UNANIMO USLY PASSED BY
 THE HOUSE.

Republicans Could See No Reason for
 Delaying Action After To-day and Adopt Special Order to This Effect Democrats Desire ed to Debate and Offer
 Amendments-Acs caused the Msjority of
 Applying the "Gng''-When Beaten
 They Asked for an ImIn nediate Vote.
 Washington, Feb 17.--The unexpect- ed happened in the house to-day when the bill to repeal the war revenue taxes was passed unanimously without a word of debate. This action was the outcome of challenge thrown down by MT. Richardson, of Tennessee, the mi nority leader. after the adoption, by a strict party vote, of special order for the consideration of the bill which per- mitted debate upon it until o'clock to- morrow afternoon, but cut off all op- portunity of offering amendments, eX- cept such as had been agreed upon by the ways and means committee.
 The adoption of the rule mad been preceded by a stormy debate, in the course of which the democrats protest ed against the application of the 'gag" which MT. Hay, of Virginia, charged was meant to prevent & free expression not only by the democrats but by some of the republicans, attention being es- pecially directed toward MT. Babcock, of Wisconsin, the father of the bill to amend the steel schedule of the present law They also charged that such method of procedurs was minimizing the influence of the house and making it simply machine to register the de- crees of the few men in control.
 MT. Babcock said that he supported the programme on the ground that the issue presented for the repeal of the war revenue taxes should be complicat- ed with other matters At the same time he gave notice that he should press his own bill at the first opportunity. Mir. Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, scored point against the minority by recalling the time when, under democratic con- trol of the house, 649 amendments to the Wilson tariff bill were forced through without being read.
 The rule was adopted by vote of 158 to 120 Mr Richardson, to emphasize the fact that debate on the bill could accomplish nothing and that delibera- ton on it would be fruitless, asked unanimous consent that the bill be placed upon it's passed. Not an objec- ion was voiced and the vote was taken forthwith. Every vote-278 in number was cast in the affirmative, and thus luietly and unanimously came the end If what at one time promised to be one If the most exciting contests of the ses-

PRES. HADLEY GUEST OF HONOR
ADnualDinnero of BostOn's Yale Alumni
 Pres EIfot's Tribufe

Boston, Feb. 1.-The Yale alumni of | Boston held their annual dinner to-
 night at the Tuilleries and President
 Hadley of the university was the guest
 of honor. President Sherman l.. Whip 1 pie was toastmaster. At the head ta-
 ble, beside the three presidents of Yale, Harvard and Dartmouth, were Major Henry Lee Higginson, Alfred Hemen-
 way and Mason Trowbridge, the latter | formerly of the Yale debating team and now head coach of the debaters. 1 In his short address after the dinner President Hadley said that the prepa-
 rations for the bicentennial being end ed the opportunity remains to use the lessons learned to the end that there
 may, be something grander to com
 memorate at the next anniversary one hundred years hence.
 After aluding to the celebration of last October the loyal spirit and united activity then so apparent, he referred to athletics, saying: 'It has always seemed to me that the very best thing about athletic contests was not their value in promoting physical exercise nor their use as a training to the con- testants, but their effect in bringing students and graduates, sons, fathers and grandfathers, into a common sym pathy which made them, on the field at least, part of a coherent community with common interests and ideals
 The main point which President Had ley wished to emphasize was the great power of graduate influence on the life of the university. He characterized graduate sympathy as an inspiration; graduate sentiment as an effective basis of discipline and graduate infu- enCe as the most potent force In the education of the intellect and con- science.
 He hoped in the future to see the mu- sical department of Yale developed and better equipped and the musical socie- ties If New Haven looking to Yale for guidance President Hadley congrat- ulaltG Harvard men on the recent gifts to theIr medical school.
 President Eliot of Harvard said that American institutions of higher educa- tior are becoming richer and stronger We are seeing at CnlS time, said he, 'the tremendous new power of associa- tive capital: we are yet to see the tre- mendous new power of associative la bor. These are problems to which President Hadley has given proficient attention, and l cannot but rejoice with you that just such a scholar is to lead Yale for the next forty years" (Ap- plauSe)
