SEVENTEEN MILLIONS
FOR PUBLIC BUILDINGS
Omnibus Appropriation Bill to
Be Reported Tomorrow.
New York Delegation Perturbed Con-
corning New Gotham Postoffice-
Assurances Given by Committee.

The omnibus public building appropria-
Committee on Public Buildings and
Grounds tomorrow.
The committee has been at work on 1t
all session, with two ends In view. first to
apportion the appropriations as equitably
as possible. and secondly to secure as
much support for the bill as was neces-
sary TO insure its passage through the
House.
Forty-three States and one Territory are
cared for in the bill. which will carry APP
preparations for about seventy five build
ings, amounting in all to about $4,000. 900.
A Modest Amount.
This is regarded as very modest
amount for an appropriation bill of this
character. But as many amendments are
expected in the Senate the total will prob
ably be greatly Increased before the bill
becomes law. 3D..
The members OF the House from New
York city are greatly exercised over the
charge that they have been negligent in
pressing the claims of New York for a
ucW pOStOulCe. lney Qeuy tudt any
stone has been left unturned.
1t was thought best to separate the
project for new postofice in New York
city from the omnibus bill, as 1t might
endanger its success.
Consequently the New York members in
a body appeared before the Committee on
Claims and advocated the passage Of a
separate bill introduced by Representative
Cummings of New York for the construc- I
ton Of postofice.
This bill, however. does not seem to
have met with the approval Of all the
New York delegation nor Of the members
OF the committee.
Assurances Given.
Members of the delegation were inform
ed yesterday bL Mr.. Gillet. of that State.
a member otshe committee. that the COM
mittee would report Senator Platt's bill
providing for the appointment of COM
mission to select site for the New York
postoffice. ~ 9
1t will have a provision inserted. it
was said. authorizing the commission to
purchase the site selected. together with |
an indefinite appropriation to pay for the
same. This announcement was made after |
a conference between Senator Plat and
Mr. Gillet. and was quite surprise to |
the city members. who had not been ad |
yised that the matter was to be discussed |

Part of Structure to Be
Built at Once at Cost
of 100000.
IMMENSE BUILDING PLANNED
To Contain Five Million Cubic Feet
Site to Cost s5oo,ooo--May Be Erected
on Grounds West of War, State, and
Navy Building.

The hall OF records bill was passed by
the Senate yesterday without objection.
The bill was reported by the Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds two
weeks ago. and has tho sanction and sup
port Of the Administration. =. ,-.7-ualt
1t provides for q structure to contain
100000 cubic feet OF space, one OF the
largest in the District. A portion OF the
building is to be erected Immediately at
a cost of 100000. and the remainder as
needed. The limit of cost for the site Is
$500. 900. $50
No particular site is mentioned in the
measure. but it is understood the Treas
ury Department officials. who win have
charge OF the building. are in favor OF
square to the west Of the State. War, and
Navy Building. -
Long Step Forward.
The passage Of the bill by the Senate
Is considered a long step toward the ac-
compiishment Of the wishes Of the de-
partments for the building. and large
hopes are based on the action. There has
been continuous plea for twenty-five
years from the executive departments for
a hall OF records, but for some reason.
hard to understand, II has never borne
any fruit. I.-
Secretary Shaw recently sent to the
Senate the most urgent letter in all the
long series OF pleas. and IT Is perhaps ow-
ing to him that favorable action was
taken.
MI. Vest Supports Bill.
Senator Vest made short speech In
favor Of the bill before it was passed. He
called attention to the many pleas made
for the building. saying that three Pres
dents have duplicated Congress for ac-
lion In the past quarter century.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY
In SENATE COMMITTEE
Session Yesterday Spent in
General Consideration.
Divergence of Views Regarding Senator
Teller's Resolution Calling for In
vestigation of Sugar Trust
Holdings.

meeting of the Senate Committee on
Relations with Cuba las been called to
meet at II o'clock this morning to consid-
member of the committee. to investigate
the alleged ownership of the Cuban sugar
crop by the Sugar Trust.
In accordance with the determination
of the Republican Senators to themselves
prepare Cuban reciprocity bill without
the assistance Of the Democrats. pre-
liminary conference of the Republican
members OF the Cuban committee was held
yesterday. No conclusion was reached
and most of the time was spent in gen.
eral consideration of the many complex
questions involved
The question as TO what action should
be taken on Mr.. TelIers resolution call
ing for an investigation of the extent Of
the Sugar Trusts interests in Cuban sugar
vas brought up and a wide divergence of
opinion was developed. s
A Was, of Time.
Some of the members opposed the hold
ing OF such an inquiry on the ground that
il would simply be waste of time.
Others favored the adoption of the reso-
luton because. as they said. it could not
possibly do any harm.
These contended that the Sugar Trust
has less interest in Cuban sugars now
than it has ever had and that it. would
be good politics to demonstrate that fact.
in view of the reiterated charge made by
the Democrats that the proposed relief
for Cuba would really only benefit the
trust.
Beet Sugar Senators Still Firm.
The beet sugar Senator's. or some of
them at least. are not as yet disposed to |
succumb TO the party demands for har-
mony TO the extent of accepting the plan |
submitted by Senator Platt.
Senators Mcmillan and Burrows of |
Michigan and Senator Elkins are under
stood 10 be very positive ia their opin-
ion that such bill does not meet the
situation.

Booker Washington Incident-Petty
Politicians Seeking to Disturb Exist

tion for the Investigation of suffrage con-
ditions in the South.
Defends Loyalty of South.
Mr.. Fox vigorously defended the loyalty
Of the Southern people and the constitu-
tion OF his own State. He said that there
was nothing in that instrument which de-
prived any man of the right of suffrage
except for crime. 1t was not q difficult
thing. he said. to comply with an educa-
tional qualification.
Mr.. Fox said that the time had come
when members of Congress ought not to
be tainted with reference to the civil
war.
He declared that there was no race
question in Mississippi: that the condi-
tons there prevailing promoted the well
fare of both races. that both we're salts
fed. and that none but petty politicians
were seeking to disturb the peace and
contentment which exists.

Booker Washington Incident.
Mr.. Smith-The gentleman ought to in
clude in his remarks the opinion ex-
pressed by his associates regarding the
President OF the United States because he
invited the whitest black man in the Unit
ed States against the protests of the
blacklist white men in the United States.
to eat at his table,
Mr.. Fox did no. respond to this directly,
but expressed his regret that he had been
diverted from q legal argument b. an eff
fort to induce aim to discuss the social
features of the question. But he would
say that no one had ever heard him criti-
else the President for that matter. 1t was
none Of his business. Every man had the
right. IL he had the might. to fix his So
cial status for himself. IApplause.l

ton on the bill. The measure carries an
