The House Of representatives, IS
now considering the Naval Appro-
priation bill which it is believed
Will occupy the remainder OF the
week. 1t has been practically de-
cided, though notyet officially an
nounced, that nothing will be done
during this session with the Crum-
packer resolution, which provides
for a Congressional investigation
of election methods in the South
ern states, with a view to reducing
the representation of those states
in which negroes have been dis
franchised. The resolution will
be permitted to remain on the cal
endar, however, for the action at
the short session. Judge Crum-
packer is indignant at the treat
ment he has received but like other
insubordinate Republicans he can
do nothing but make the best OF
his discontinue.

serious opposition to the bill which
the committee will report. While
the leaders are non-committal on
the subject of the isthmian canal
bill ii is manifest that there is a
decided disposition on the part of
certain Republican Senator'S to
avoid all canal legislation. They
fear the effect of a large appropri-
alton, which such Legislation would
entail, on the fall elections and
particularly is this true of the
Western Senators who have been
unable to secure any action in the
House on the irrigation bill.

FOR REPRESENTATIVE
WASHINGTON LETTER.

The debate on the Philippine
bill is at last drawing to a close
and, while there are still a number
of Senators who wish to speak on
on the subject, the end is regard
ed as in sight. Senator Rawlins
who is senior Democrat on the
Philippines Committee, told me
yesterday that there would be no
fIibusterlng on the part of the
Democrats and that all the sensa-
tional stories to that effect had en-
enated from unreliable sources, as
such tactics had never been con-
templated by the party leaders.
When one or two more Democrat
ic Senators have expressed their
views on the policy of the admins
tration, the minority will make an
effort to secure the amendment of
the bill along lines calculated to
curtail the autocratlc power con-
ferred on the Philippine Commits
sion and to reserve to the Filipinos
a large share of the special rights
and privileges of their country.
The mining law, which was drawn
up by a subcommittee, of which
Senator Rawlins was chairman, is
satisfactory to all concerned. The
land laws, the minority hopes to
amend by substituting the home
stead laws of the United States
with reduction of the amount of
land granted to each individual to,
probably, forty acres, and they
will contend for the greatest pos
ible reduction of the amount of
land which the commission will be
empowered to lease or sell to cor,
porations. 1t is also hoped that
the judicial provisions of the bill
may be so amended as to extend
the provision regarding the right
of appeal to the Supreme Court
of the United States and to accord
the Filipinos the right of trial by
jury. If cases are to be tried by
Filipino judges, it certainly seems
reasonable toassume that Filipinos
woult be competent to serve as ju-
rors" said Senator Rawlins, speak
ing Of this phase of the bill.

The President has finally listen
ed to the Establishments, or the
threats, of Senator Hannah and
has consented to order o new trial
of the defauIter, Rathbone, One
Washington correspondent de-
cIares that Senator Hanna said to
him that he would raise a scandal
in regard to the expense account
of General Wood which would
bring a storm about the ears of
the Administration, if his demands
in regard to Rathbone were not
needed. Whether Rathbone's ac-
quittal is accomplished or not,
Senator Hanna, by his steadfast
friendship to Rathbone, has won
the admiration of that element of
his party which always tries to
have q friend at court to protect
them from the strong arm of the
law. The Cuban Supreme Court
will review Rathbone's case and
from now on Mr.. Hanna's ener-
gies will probably be directed to-
ward Havana.

DR.. Eugene F. Ware yesterday
assumed the duties of Pension
Commissioner, vice II. Clay Ev-
ans, but it was not with any great
compIacency that DR.. Ware en-
tered upon his arduous labors.
Before going to the Pension Of
flee he had long conference with
Mr.. Roosevelt during which the
latter enjoined upon him the ne
cessity of carrying out the policy
of his predecessor. AS there are
at least 25, 900 cases which were
rejected by Mr.. Evans and which
will doubtless be renewed before
DR.. Ware, and as the rejection of
these cases formed the chief
ground of complaint which the G..
A. R. had against Evans, the Doc
tor feels that the President has
practically instructed him to com
NIT official suicide. If he follows
to the letter, as Mr.. Roosevelt
wishes him to do, the policy OF
Mr.. Evans, and administers his of
flee with the same strict regard
for the law, the G. A. r. will be
equally dissatisfied with his SER
vices and will be soon organizing
a movement looking to his dismis-
sal. The politicians say that Mr..
Roosevelt is committing his own
political suicide by giving such in
structions, as the G. A. R. will
oppose his election even if they
do not prevent his nomination.
