SENATE BILL LIKELY
TO BE AGREED TO

Washington, April 1.-THE Senate
this afternoon Strengthened out the
parliamentary questions concerping
the Chinese exclusion bill, and pro.
yided that the Senate bin should go
nt once to conference. AS the Sen.
ate yesterday, in passing the bill, did
not consider the House bill at all, but
PASSED an entirely new bill, 1t still has
tho House bill on its hands. Under
ordinary procedure the Senate bill
would have to go to the House and be
considered as new legislation. This
was avoided today by the Senate's &C.
ton in taking up the house bill, strilI-
Jig out all after the enacting clause
and inserting the Senate bill. The
House bill, thus amended, goes into
conference. 1t is likely that the con.
terees on the part OF the Senate will
be Senators Penrose, Fairbanks and
Rawlins or Turner while the House
conferees will probably be Hit, Per.
luns and Clark. Dnsmore, who would,
under the usual rule. be conferee,
valves his right in favor of Champ
Clark, who is leading the Democratic
contingent in trying to extract little
political capital out of the Chinese
question.
The impression appears to have
gone abroad in the East that Callfor.

martial of Arthur Howard, alias Wal
Ter. deserter from the United States
army who was captured in August
last by Lieutenant Hazard. was con-
tinued today Towards trial on the
charge Of desertion was delayed, ow-
ing to his being used as a civilian
scout under J. Franklin Bell in the
latter's campaign against the insur-
gents in Batangas province. It is be
ieved that II Howard is convicted he
viii be pardoned because Of the serv-
ices he rendered 70 the government.
but he will probably be rearrested by
the civil authorities on a charge Of
murder.
Howard denied that ne was ever an
American soldier. and claimed that he
was born in Spain Of English and
Spanish parentage. He asserted that
he cast his lot with AguinaldO at the
time Of the rupture with the Ameri-
cans and that he brought in sixteen
American prisoners, under a flag of
truce at Angeles. Pampanga province.
in September. 1899
Among other charges brought
against him was that he commanded
the Filipino force at san Mateo. which
killed General Henry +. LawtOn. Dec.

American holdings of Cuban sugar. He
said that Mr. Havemeyer's statement
yesterday to the effect that his com
pany had purchased SO 900 tons Of sugar
since the first Of January last, was
correct. No more Cuban sugar could
have been bought as none could have
been purchased without his knowledge

ised Senator Plat to send to the COM
mittee a memoranda showing the pur-
chases made and giving dates. All the

statement as TO purchases amounting
to $4,000 tons and the returns made by
the war department, placing the
American cOmpany's options at 325, 900
tons up TO March, but Mr.. Bonner was
not able to explain it. Responding to
questions by Senator Teller, Mr.. Don

ment that the trusts purchases of Gu
