TRENTON, y. D., March 1.-The two
houses of the leg stature held busy ses-
sions last night. and a volume of rou-
tine business was handled, indicating
Il preparation for final adjournment
in the near future 1t is thought now
that the session will not continue be-
yond March II. Most of the work of
the two houses was the handling of
bills on second reading. The senate
confirmed the nominations of H. =.
Reynolds and Or. James B. Buckley as
managers Of the state village for cpl
leptics. Mr.. Carter reported n substitute
for his bill to provide that the state
money in banks shall draw at least 2
per cent interest. The bill leaves the
designation Of the banks entirely in the
hands OF the state treasurer. When ill.,
tercst cannot be obtained, it was made
unlawful to deposit more than 100000

Displcnscd with Census Hill,

WASHINGTON, March An con-
ference with members of congress
President Roosevelt expressed his Sc
we're lisapproval of the civil service
provision Of the bill creating a perma-
ncnt census bill, which has passed
both houses and is now before him.
The bill extends the provisions of the
civil service law TO all the clerks at
present employed in the census office,
numbering about LOO, and the presi-
dent takes the position that this action
is an injustice to those who have pass
cd and who may pass the civil service
examination prescribed by law. He is,
however, very anxious to have Il per-
manent census bureau, and the opinion
is expressed by those who have talked
with him that he will sign the bill and
then seek TO regulate by executive or
der the appointments under the bill so
as to avoid the injusticrs of which he

An IMPORTANT INDUSTRY NEGLECTED
Policy of Protection, Says Gentleman
From Maine, So Beneficial to

Extend to Merchant Marine.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The SEN
ate yesterday began consideration Of
what is popularity known as the ship
ping blll, Il measure to provide for
ocean mai! service between the United
States and foreign ports and for the
common defense to promote commerce
and to encourage deep sea fisheries.
Mr.. Frye lMel, chairman of the com
mlttee Oh commerce. made the opening
statements in support of the bill. lie
occupied the floor for nearly two
hours. The policy of protection which
has been applied. he said. to American
industries with such benefcent re-
suits had not been applied TO the ship
ping industry. The result of this
short sighted policy had been the de-
cadence Of the American merchant
marine and the consequent humiliation
Of Americans engaged in the shipping
industry.
Mr. Frye's address was largely tech
meal, but his argument was listened
to viii, close attention by senators on
both sides Of the chamber.
Prior to the consideration of the ship
ping bill many minor measures were
passed.
The house began consideration of the
bill to classify the rural free delivery
service and to place the carriers under
the contract system. Only two speech |;

Swanson (Na.) led the opposition. The
debate was interrupted before the close
of the session by the presentation Of
tho conference report on the Philippine
tariff bill. Mr.. Payne, the majority
leader, declined to allow the minority
more than thirty minutes in which TO
discuss the report. and this offer was
rejected. a lilibuSter followed, and the

question on the adoption Of the report
had been ordered.
