SENATOR WITHOUT A PHONE.
Difficulty in the Way Of Granting His
Request.

The District Commissioners have been In
formed by Senator Joseph B. Foraker of
Ohio that he wrote a few days ago to the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany, stating that on the last day of Au-
gust, 1901, Mr.. c. E. Alden, clerk Of the
Senate committee on Pacific Islands and
Porto Rico. of which Mr.. Foraker is chair
man. who lives at 1919 1st street, made ap-
plicaton for the installation of telephone
al his residence. He has repeated the APP
plications, but so far without avail.
1T is a matter Of great inconvenience to
me, as we'll as to him." said the Ohio sena-
tor in his letter, Ito be without this SER
vice. 1 have been particularly annoyed. It
does seem that there must be something
very inefficient about the management of q
public utility that cannot accommodate
patrons promptly and satisfactorily, and
that, unless there is some reason to be
given In explanation, your failure in this
instance is entirely inexcusable. If you are
unable to supply service when called for.
are unwilling to supply it, l will be
obliged to you if you will SO inform me by
answer to this communication"
The matter was taken up by the Commits
sioners, and w. c. Allen, the electrical en-
gineer, today placed before the board let
ter from the contract agent of the tele-
phone company, in which he says in order
to supply the telephone service in the resi-
dence Of Mr.. Alden IT will be necessary to
obtain permission to erect aerial cables.
This class of construction" says the
electrical engineer. 1.-The Commissioners
have decided not to permit, pending the
submission Of general plan for such work
by the telephone company. Although the
president Of the telephone company had a
conference with the Commissioners on this
subject In January last, they have not yet
submitted their plans. and until they do so
l am of the opinion that it would be unde-
srable to permit the erection Of such aerial
cables as are cOntemplat ted in this case"
The Commissioners will SO inform Sena-
tor Foraker.

THE CENSUS CLERKS
RESOLUTIONS CONSIDERED BY
HOUSE COMMITTEE.
Two Views Expressed as to Theiy
Transfer to the Civil Ser
vice Rolls.

At a meeting of the House special COM
mittee on census today a subcommittee.
consisting of Representatives Heatwole OF
Minnesota. Crumpacker OF Indiana and
Hay of Virginia, was appointed to consider
the pending resolutions on the subject of
covering the clerks into the classified SER
vice. as we'll other resolutions which it
is understood will be introduced on this
subject.
Opinion expressed privately by members
of the committee varies as to whether the
committee will report any measure on this
subject. A conservative republican mem
Der of the committee said to a Star report
er in discussing the subject today:
A Republican View.
1T Is my opinion from talk with some
of my colleagues the committee, that no
bill will be reported which has for its pur-
pose the repeal of section of the census
law.
''Such a course would be to take direct
issue with President Roosevelt. He would.
of, course. veto such bill, and If 1t became
law 1t would have to be passed over that
veto by a two-thirdS majority.
This Is too small question on which to
make a direct issue between the President
and Congress. 1t Is. after all. only a ques-
tion of small politics"
An opposite opinion.
A leading democrat on the committee,
however. takes a diametricaily~ opposite
view of what the committee action will be.
I'VE will amend section g. he declared.
$50 as to extend the provisions of the civil
service law over and make eligible for
transfer all clerks on the rolls of the CEN
sus bureau at the time the President signed
the bill making that bureau perma nent. II
the President vetoes it We will pass it over
his head"
1t is understood that a bill to this end is
now in course of preparation. and will
shortly be introduced.
Mr. Russell presided at the meeting today
In the absence of Mr. Hopkins. and nine
members OF the committee were present.
To Transfer Records.
The first action of the committee was
taken after hearing Director Merriam on
Senate bill to transfer all of the census
records beginning with the first census, to
the census office from the Interior Depart
ment The committee decided to report
this bill favorabiy.
The discussion on the civil service mat
ter was not participated in by Mr.. Mer-
riam The two resolutions on this subject
now before the committee are those of Mr..
Hughes and Mr.. Sims.
No meeting of the subcommittee has been
called as yet.

RUSSIA NOT PLEASED

JAPAN WITH ENGLAND
THE INSPIRED PRESS COMMENT
rs VERY GUARDED.
Censor Does Not Wish the Matter Dis
cussed-An Editors Per-
sonal Views.
WITH ENGLAND
Of the Associated Press.

CORRESPONDENCE OF the Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, February 19.-The
Russian press has had extraordinarily lit
tie to say about the Anglo-Japanese treaty.
Neither the Novoye Vremya nor the St..
Petersburg Vedomosti, the two newspapers
which are usually most interested in the
far east, have had a word of comment.
The Svjet published a paragraph briefly
rejecting the official view. The Novosti
devoted to the subject one Of its usual
colorless articles.
The Bourse Gazette alone entered into
the subject at length. but 1t also studied
it's inspired information closely. Today
one finds a sarcastic and ironical article
in the extreme reactionary Moscow We'd
omosti. in which the treaty is chara cter-
lied as being as complete a fasco as the
AnglO-German agreement, and as having
merely journalistic Importance. OF course,
says this paper it cannot change the orr
entail policy of Russia.
The explanation Of the silence of the
tent merely to mirror official views is
simple. Count LamsdOrf, the foreign min
lister. Immediately gave the newspapers
notice that he did not desire unfavorable
comment on the treaty such comment as
would indicate chagrin.
Ed1IOr,S S PerSOnal views.
what do you think of the treaty." the
Associated Press correspondent asked one
responsible editor.
4 think it is not very nice for Russia"
he replied. but l dare not say SO in my
paper"
Apparently Count Lamsdorfs injunction
did not reach the provinces. The comment
of the Odessa papers is in different vein
The Yujnoe Cbozrenie Southern Review
says:
THE real Importance of such treaties
rarely corresponds precisely TO the text.
Therefore, one must suspend judgment. At
present it would seem that the principal
object in view is the naturalization of
France in case Of war between Russia and
Japan
The paper italicizes the last sentence.
The Odessa Novosti pronounces the treaty
tremendous surprise and an act Of the
highest political wisdom. The rapproche-
ment of Japan and China naturally lends
the treaty increased Importance in British
eyes, since it creates a sort of dreibund for
the maintenance OF the status quo in the
far east.

The present coffee crop of Salvador
win not exceed 4O,OOO,OOO pounds accord
ing to the report of Consul General Jen-
kins The yield for 1901 was 55.600000
pounds. The deficit is due to the early
rains, which fell soon after the harvest
of last year and caused the coffee
plants to blossom prcmaurely. This
bloom, however, was destroyed by the
north winds. Later, when the rains
came i'm their proper season, the plants
bIossomed a second time, but very fee
bly, From the present outlook a de-
creased crop viii be harvested. To our
coffee growers it may be some satisfac-
ton that portion of the coffee crop is
coming short, but Central American
coffee is a drop in the bucket, 1t is
Brazilian coffee that troubles the mar
.ket.

THE SURPLUS.

If the excess of receipts over eXpen-
.ditures for the eight-months' period of
this and the preceding fiscal year be
compared, says Bradstreets, quoting
from the Treasury Reports, it will be
seen that the surplus for the eight
months Of this year is over $19,5OO,OOO
in excess of that for the corresponding
period of last year, the figures being
$52, 759,OOl for the eight months ending
with February, 1902, and $33,16S,7O for
the eight months ending with Febru-
airy, 1901.
The operations for February have
tended to lower somewhat the estimates
as to the probable surplus at the end
of the fiscal year. If the surplus should
grow during the remainder of the
year at the same rate as during the
first two-thirds of the year the surplus
at the end of June would be under $780,
OOO,O The repeal bill recently passed
by the House of Representatives would
cut off almost the whole of this sur
plus.
Perhaps the Senate Finance Commit
tee, which has the War Tax Repeal
bill before it for consideration, will see
the wisdom of not making so radical
an excelsior of the internal revenue
taxes, for the reason that there is still
uncertainty as to the extent Of the gov
.ernments expenditures in the near flu
ture.

After giving us a couple Of days re-
spite, the storm turned up again on
Thursday night, and we were treated
to a great electrical display accom-
panied by some thunder. Yesterday
came in very blustery with heavy rains
in all the valleys. This morning every
thing was swimming after steady
nights rain. We certainly have had
our share Of moisture for a time and
would like little sunshine to warm
the air and dry up the muddied roads
and flooded lawns. However we have
nothing really to complain Of. The
rain is Of the utmost value to our agri-
cultural products.
