Washington. Feb. 25.--The House to-
day passed the diplomatic and consular
appropriation bill. 1t was the fifth of
the regular annual supply measures to
be sent TO the Senate at this session.
No amendments of Importance were
adopted. The feature of the day was
the speech of Mr.. Richardson of Ala
bama in reply to Mr.. Corliss' speech
few days ago in favor of the con-
struction of a Pacific cable by the gov
ernment. The question of reforming
the consular service was debated at
some length, but no amendments upon
that subject were offered.
Mr.. Richardson protested against
Mr.. Corliss' course in delivering what
he termed his 'well prepared and
widely disseminated speeches" before
the subject had come before the House
to reconsideration and said it looked
like an effort to forestall the Judgment
of the House. He warned the members
OF the House not to decide the question
until the facts on both sides had been
regularly and finally presented.
Champ Clark on Cleveland.
Champ Clark of Missouri made a
characteristic speech. urging that in
stead of 'criticising the present consul

the system should be presented. For
himself, he dod not favor the so-cailed
merit system. When the Republicans
carried the elections he believed they
had right to the offices: when the
Democrats carried the elections he be-
Heved they had a. right to the offices.

man race since the fall of Adam"

MINERS DIED BY FIRE.

Four Lost Their Lives In Boarding
House Blaze In Idaho and Others
Fatally Injured.
Spokane. Wash, Feb. 25.-Four men
lost their lives and. dozen others were
injured, three probably fatally, in a
fire of unknown origin which destroyed
the boarding and bunk houses Of the
Standard mine at Mace, Ida, early to-
day.
The dead are ]. w. Edwards, d. r.
Mann, Eugene Bangs and NJ. 4. Moore.
The fatally injured are T.. !. Arbor-
ough, f. McCallum and John Bowbay.
Sixty men were asleep in the two
buildings when the fire was discovered
in the second floor of the boarding
house.
The alarm was quickly given, but
the flames spread with such rapldity
that all escape was cut off, except
through the windows. Most of the in
jured were hurt while making their
escape in this manner, though several
were burned. 1t is supposed that the
men who lost their lives became con-
fused by the fire and smoke in the
Railways and were unable to find a
window Their bodies have been re-
covered.

Washington, Feb. PA large num-
Der Of ladies representing the FEEDER
alton of Women's Clubs, the Inter-
national Council of Women, and kim
dred organizations opposed to polyga-
my were heard by the House Com
mittee on Judiciary to-day in favor of
a stringent constitutional amendment
against polygamous practices. 1t was
stated by the various speakers that
Mormonism and polygamy was largely
increasing in several states of the
West, and was rapidly invading the
Eastern states. The state of West
Virginia, it was stated, furnished 5000
converts to Mormonism last year.
Pennsylvania and other states were dl
vided into districts and were being
Systematically canvassed by Mormon
missionaries.
Representative Fleming OF Georgia
suggested that a congressional COM
nittee of investigation go to Utah and
learn the facts. The ladies were will

mittee if constitutional amendment
could not be secured. The committee,
however, did not take final action.

GERMANS ARE WARMING UP.
They Begin to Feel Very Cordial

trait scene i'm Berlin.
Berlin, Feb. 25.--All day long crowds
started at the portraits of President
Roosevelt and Prince Henry, which
hung side by side in front of a news
paper office on 'JTnter den Linden"
and part of the time this crowd was
so dense that the police had to clear
the way for traffic.
Emperor William, who with the Em-
press, drove by the newspaper office
this afternoon. noticed the portraits
and saluted a small American flag
above them. Upon perceiving this the
assembled crowd applauded.
The Germans are slowly working up
to animation over the reception in the
United States to Prince Henry, and
are glowing with good feeling toward
America.
All the correspondents in the United
States for German newspapers agree
upon the warmth of the reception to
Prince Henry by President Roosevelt
and by the American officials.
Die Post prints the following ca ble-
gram from Washington:
"All preparations for the reception of
the Prince were under the personal su-
pervision of President Roosevelt. Pres
ident Roosevelt wanted to give Prince
come, and has thoroughly succeeded in
doing So The Prince has showed how
much he rejoiced at the really cordial
attitude of the President, and all those
about him. Prince Henry has unani-
mously won the hearts of all at the
White House,"
The attitude of all newspapers, the
correspondent of Die Post says, Is ex-
traordinarily cordial, without excep-
ton, and shows Prince Henry in his best
light. Papers were particularly pleased,
concludes the correspondent, with
Prince Henry's expression of his wish,
ITO learn to know men and
and things with the least ceremony"
The North German Gazette an
nounces that instead of the usual in
stallment of it's serial novel, it will
print selected chapters from President
Roosevelt's Ranch Life and the Hunt
ing Trail"
