exclusion bill occupied the attention
of the senate throughout the day, Sen
ators Foraker and McLourin of South
Carolina making extended speeches in
opposition. Senator Foraker con-
tended that the measure was violatiye
of our treaty with China and calcu-
lated to prevent our commercial ex-
pansion in the far east While strong
iy supporting the policy of the gov
eminent to exclude Chinese laborers,
the Ohio senator maintained that
this could best be accomplished by an
extension of the present law. Sena-
tor Teller briefly responded, urging
that the right to abrogate treaties
was fully recognized.
Interest in the Cuba reciprocity de-
bate in the house seems to be waning.

but the earnestness of the speeches
on both sides Of the question increased
rather than decreased in intensity.
That the republican opponents of the
bill are determined to prolong the
struggle as much as possible was
made manifest by their refusal to al
low speeches to be printed in the
record.

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, April 10.-An effort
was made in the senate to obtain an
agreement for a vote on the Chinese
exclusion bill, but it was unsuccess-
full. The measure was under discus
sion during the entire session, except
for about an hour in which time the
postoffice appropriation bill was
PASSED. Senator Depew of New York
spoke briefly against the adoption Of
the resolution providing for the
election of senators by popular vote.
In effect, he served notice on those
states which had limited their SUI
frage that If the resolution was
enacted the demand would be made
on them to accord all their citizens
the right to vote, or suffer loss or
representatives in congress.
The debate on the Cuban re-
ciprocity bill in the house was devoid
OF enlivening features. The most
notable speech of the day was by
Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio. He answered
the critics who have charged him
with inconsistency by saying re-
cIprocity was sound republican
doctrine and the tariff schedules were
rot sacred. He predicted the time
would come, although it had not yet
arrived, when there would be an in
exOrable demand for a revision OF the
present rates.

Washington, April 15.--The debate
on the Chinese exclusion bill was
practically concluded. A favorable
vote was taken on two amendments
offered by Senator Fairbanks striking
out the definition as to Chinese stu
dents and teachers. These changes
were made with a view to reconciling
some of, the opposition to the
measure which has been directed
against the rigid restrictions on stu

With the close OF the Cuban reci-

leaders announced that all danger OF

and that they felt assured that the

there remained 35 members who de-
sired to speak. The debate was with

Washington, April 11-Some re-
marks which Senator Depew of New
York made Thursday concerning the
proposed amendment to the constitu-
ton providing for the election Of
senators by popular vote, in the course
of which he advelted to southern cleo
ton methods, precipitated a lively
three hours debate in the senate.
Senator Money of Mississippi, ode
tended the suffrage clauses in the
Mississippi constitution. Senator
Depew made warm reply and at
tackled the election methods not only
of Mississippi but several other south
ern states He intimated that if
fair methods were employed in those
states republican senators would b.:
here stheir representatives. Senator
Blackburn of Kentucky defended what
is known as the Goebel election law
and asserted that the New York sena-
tor was not informed IS to the facts
OF Kentucky politics. When the
Chinese exclusion bill was taken up
an agreement was reached that the
vote should be taken on it next
Wednesday,
The debate on the Cuban reciprocity
bill was continued in the house, the
principal speeches being made by Mr.
Long of Kansas, member of the ways
and means committee, who from the
first ardently supported the PROPOSE
ton for reciprocity and who originally
favored a reduction of 40 per cent,
and by Mr.. Shafroth of Colorado, who
vigorously opposed the bill on the
ground that the sugar trust, which, he
said, was waging war of eXtermina-
ton against the beet sugar industry,
would be its chief beneficiary.
Washington, April 12.-The feature
of the Chinese exclusion debate III
the senate was a sharp criticism OF
Minister WI of China, because of his
protest to the secretary of state
against the enactment Of the pending
bill. Senators Mitchell OF Oregon
and Teller of Colorado attacked him.
declaring he deserved being given his
passports and that no Self-resDecting
nation would permit such an inter

ators Foraker of Ohio and Hoar of
Massachusetts insisted that the
Chinese minister had done no more
than his duty and that he would
have been derelict had he done less.
The house passed the bill granting
q pension to the widow Of President
Mckinley of $4,000 per year It had

LEST WE FORGET.

A Washington dispatch of a recent
date says:

troduced c. U. Heuser. of Fort Scott,
Kan, to the president. Heuser was a
member of the Twentieth Kansas and

NEED a NEW OFFICER.

Topeka needs another official. The
mayor should appoint a tithing man,
whose sole duty should be to preser We
order at all public entertainments. The
fheater and concert going population
is so devoid of an understanding of the
proprieties that such an old-time Off
cial might find plenty to do.
There has not been a theatrical nor
musical entertainment this season.. ex-
cept the song recital of Nine. Lillian
Nordica, that the audience has not
been annoyed. In the theater the boots
and yells of the rowdies in the gallery
is a constant source of annoyance to
the players and the orderly portion of
the audience. To be sure, there is an
officer in the gallery who shouts that's
off, in very stentorian manner, but
he nor the management of the theater
makes any further effort at order in
that apartment of the house The dis
order is not confined to the gallery. In
the parquet there are always dozens
of people who come III late and annoy
the audience by compelling perhaps Il
dozen persons to rise in order that the
late-comers may be seated. Then be-
tween the acts the ushers and boys,
and sometimes men who sit close to
the stage, make a rush for the lobby.
