Republican Committee Finds DILL
Guilty in Reaching solution.

! Republican members of the Committee
on Ways and Means yesterday afternoon
resumed their conference upon the subject
of concessions for the benefit of Cuban
sugar planters and adjourned after a ses-
sion of two hours without having accom-
plished anything.
Various propositions to meet the situa-
ton and afford the relief desired were
presented and reviewed but, in the Ian
guage of one of the members, leach prop
osition was accompanied by an apology"
There was nothing, he said. that any
member desired to stand sponsor for.
Within the past week there has been
decided change of opinion regarding the
question of Cuban concessions on the part
of several members of the committee ana
the Republicans are all now working
earnestly together to find a satisfactory
solution of the problem that confronts
them. 1t was said yesterday by one OF
them that an agreement was hardly pos
sble this week, but that it might Genre
unexpectedly and suddenly before the
week ends.
one member. who has not favored ac-
tiOn on the recommendation of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Root, says
he now expects that the House will have
an opportunity, or, as he expressed it,
be compelled to vote upon proposition
to reduce the tariff on importatiOns from
Cuba to the extent of % to 80 per cent
for Il limited period

Secretary Root Submits IL Record of
Ensurgent Crimes

Among the documents sent to the Sen

nection with his letter denying the al
leyed cruelty Of American soldiers to the
Filipiros were statements from com
manders of the military districts showing
the number Of natives killed and assaulted
by the insurgents because Of real or sus-
pected sympathy with the Americans.
These reports extend only to the middle
Of December, 1900, but show that the

gated 50i: while S13 were more or loss
seriously assaulted and wounded. In ad-
dition to these. ninety municipal officials
were murdered by the instructors he
cause they took office under the Ameri-
cans, and sixty-two were victims of as
sault
The records also show that up to Aug
ust last eight American officers, thirty
one enlisted men and three civilians had
been tried by court martial in The Philip-
pines for offences committed against ma
tiyes. Ten of these were sentenced TO
death, four to life Imprisonment, and
twenty to various terms of confinement
ranging to twenty years.

The delegation announced that they
would favor no particular bill now under

lection of a proper measure to Congress.
They advocated simply a law which
would absolutely prohibit all use of the
Stars and Stripes for other purposes than
il was intended for
There are now before the Senate five
bills to prevent the dissertation of the
flag. 1t is understood that the committee
is favorable to the enactment of some one

Representatives of New York City. Chi

present.
The committee has before it two bills
one introduced by Representative Adams
of Pennsylvania and the other by Repre-
sentative Burton of Ohio. Both of these
measures propose to establish some sort
of permanent consular service, although
by appointment by the President after
proper examination as to qualification
and adaptability.
A majority of the business men present
favored the Burton bill, but the advo-
Gates of the other measure thought that
it is almost too rigid TO pass the House,
and expressed the belief that the Adams
bill would stand a better chance of enact
ment.
Mr.. John Joy Edison, the president Of
the Washington Board OF Trade. and Mr..
Corcoran Thorn were present upon behalf
of the City of Washington and the bust

grant twenty days annual leave and
twenty days sick leave to street railway
crossing policemen.
General Harries said there were thirty
four of these special employees, and that
his company paid in salaries to them last

ed putting the crossing policemen on the

From south Carolina.

Election Committee No. 2 yesterday be
gan the hearing Of the contest brought
by A. d. Dantzler against ]. William
Stokes. from the Seventh South Caro-
lima district.
The contestant is a negro and the CON
testee died several months ago. The seat
is now held by his former secretary.
Representative Asbury f. Lever.
The contestant maintains that his right
to the seat is not impaired by the death
OF Mr.. Stokes, who received the certif-
cate of election.
Mr.. Lever was elected at special cleo
ton, and had no opposition. lie is the
second youngest member of the House.
and singular coincidence is the fact that
one of the members of the committee is
Mr.. Feely. the junior member Of the
House.
Mr.. Moss appeared in behalf of Mr..
Lever yesterday. He showed that in one
county of the district Dantzler received
but two votes. and yet he had taken no
evidence to show that any voters in that
country who wanted to vote had been
denied the right to do So
He declared that if all Of the 1 $50 per
sons whom the contestant says were
denied the right to vote had actually
voted for the contestant, the contestee's

the point that If the annual leaves were
granted to these men, as they are now in
the employ of the street railway COM
panies the effect would be that the Gov
eminent, under the bill. would be paying
annual and sick leave salaries to employees
of private corporations. They did not
think such bill could pass the House.
Mr. Otey moved to reconsider, which
was done, and the bill now remains where
it was before being voted upon.
Deeds and Chimney Sweeps.
The committee took favorable action
upon Representative jenkins substitute
bill providing for the execution of deeds
to property in the District of Columbia

United STATES VIII Assume Sovereignty Soon Denasl
Raty1es Treaty Purchase Price.

AS soon as the ratifcations ofthe trans
fer treaty are exchanged, this Govern
ment will take possession Of the islands.
1t has been determined that there is no
necessity of waiting till Congress has
appropriated the purchase moneys
600. OO0-and it has been paid to Denmark.
The treaty it is held constitutes bar
gain. and the purchase price is debt
which can be subsequently paid. There
fore. it is probable that the Stars and
Stripes will be raised over the islands in
a very short time.

TO PRESERVE THE BUFFALO.
Secretary Wilson Urges the Pur-
chase of Private Herds.

In response to an enquiry, the Secre-
tary of Agriculture has sent to the Sen
ate a report on the American buhalo'
which he says is on the verge of eXterml-
nation.
There are two herds owned by the Gov
eminent. he says. one of twenty-five IN
dividuals in Yellowstone Park and an
other of ten in Lost Park. In addition to
these in geological parks, there are three
herds on private reservations-the Corbin
Reserve in New Hampshire, the Allard
nerd On the Flathead Reservation. Mon,
and the Goodnight herd in Texas. the lat
ter containing about seventy pure-bred
and 100 cross-bred buffaloes.
Secretary Wilson suggests as means
of deferring the final determination of the
specIes that the Government purchase
some of the animals now owned by indi-
viduals and the establishment of a reser-
walton in New Mexico.

southeast. We are there, and l want to
tell Senators on the other side that the
people OF this country. whatever else
they may do, will never consent to pull
down the American flag in those islands,
and never consent to abandon them.
When did it come to pass that the
American people have got to be set of
tyrants? When did it come to pass that
our soldiers have become Bashi- bazouks
over those islands? 1t is a SANDER on the
American nation. | take ii that no Sen
ator will say that the American people
are not capable of doing more for the
people of the Philippine islands than any
other people are"
Mr. McCumber Rep., n. D., spoke in
support of the American policy in the
Philippine Islands and in favor of the
bill. The Filipinos, he said. could learn
only from Americans how to maintain
self-government. What the result of the
experiment would be nobody he said,
could foretell.
Commercial advantages. he said were
to be considered. but they were only Incl
dent. They Were overshadowed by three
great duties-duty to the people of the
Philippine Islands. duty to the world and
duty TO the American people. When those
duties had been performed and all that
could be done for the betterment OF the
Philippine people mad been done. then
would be the time to make a final de-
cision as TO future relations OF the islands
to the United States.
Notice of an Amendment.

The suggestion was made facetiously
in one of the committee rooms yesterday
that some one might arise TO the occa-
