A CABLE TO MANILA.
Cabinet Considers Commercial Pacific
Company's Proposition.

Washington, July 2.-Secreatry
Moody laid before the cabinet the
proposition of the Commercial Pacific
Cable company to hasten the construc-
ton of their cable across the Pacific
and offer important advantages to the
government in return for the use of
the surveys made by the United States
steamship Nero for a cable route con-
Meeting San Francisco, Honolulu, Mid
way island, Guam and Manila. The
officials of the company state that
they are asking these plats solely in
the name of their own company and
that no other cable company, domestic
or foreign, has joined in the applica.
tion
The navy department is earnestly
DESTROYS, for military reasons, that the
cable shall be laid as soon as possible.
But certain safeguards are desired,
and these formed the basis of discus
sion before the cabinet It is regard
ed as essential that the route shall be
all American, a point which will be
secured by the use of Midway island
as relay station, and provision to
avoid touching on foreign soil between
the terminals. Another point was that
the. United States government should
have preferential in rates and time of
transmission for it's messages, and
have the sole right, in it's discretion,
to use the cable in time of war.

With these words President Roose-

hymn, "How Firm a Foundation, We
Saints OF the Lord" was then sung,

sixth psalm, the president, with a
wooden gavel, lightly tapped the stone
IS he pronounced the words of the
cornerstone ceremony. The president
left after the placing of the corner
stone. AS he stepped down from the
platform he cordially grasped the
hand of the mason, J. F. Duncan, who
handled the stone, and then in turn
shook hands with the architect and
contractor. The new church will be
completed in November and will cost
$4,000.

A TART DEBATE.

Philippine Question Occupies the Clos
ing Hours in the Senate.
Washington. July 2.-After a ses-
sion marked by some of the stormiest
debates ever heard in the American
congress the senate has adjourned sine
die
During the last hours of the session
there was tart debate on the Philip
pine question, participated in by
Messrs. Carmack of Tennessee, Spoon
er Of Wisconsin, Culberson of Texas,
McComas OF Maryland and Lodge of
Massachusetts,
The conference report on the Phil
1ppine government bill was adopted
without very serious opposition, and
then, when the decks of the senate
were cleared for adjournment, Mr..
Carmack called up his resolution pro-
viding for a continuance of the in
vestigation of the Philippine commit
tee and for a visit to the Philippines
by the committee during the present
summer. This started the trouble and
for more than an hour a battle of
words was waged. Mr.. Spooner deliv-
cred scathing denunciation of the
minority of the Philippine committee
for what he declared was an attack
upon the American army.
Mr.. Carmack denied that any attack
had been made upon the army and de-
clared that any fool could charge
such a calumny and any parrot could
be taught to repeat it. The resolution
was referred to a committee, thus
effectually killing it.
Just before adjournment the usual
resolutions were adopted, including
one offered by Mr.. Cockrell, the ven
cradle Democrat of Missouri, cordially
thanking President Pro Tempore Frye
for "the dignified, impartial and cour.
teous manner in which he had presid.
ed over the deliberations of the sen.
ate"
After the adoption of the resolution
Mr.. Frye delivered a feeling response
and then declared the senate ad.
journed without day.

Last Hours in the Senate.
Washington, July 2.-Amid a scene
OF enthusiasm that has not been paral-
leled since the exciting and stirring
days of the Spanish war, Speaker Hen
derson declared the house of repre-
sentatlves adjourned sine die. In do
Ing so he said that no house of repre-
sentatives since the adoption of the
Constitution had done as much work
as this one. The audience to which
he made his brief address was a bril-
liant one. The galleries were packed
to the doors and almost two-thirds of
the members were in their seats on the
floor. The speakers appreciative
words to the members in thanking
them for their cooperation during the
session had touched responsive
chord and they gave him a remarkable
demonstration of their friendship and
good will. While the cheering and
applause were still in progress the
members on the floor began singing
my Country, Ills of Thee" It was
taken up by the correspondents in the
press gallery over the speakers chair
and by the spectators in the surround
Ing galleries and soon the vast hall
was ringing with the swelling chorus
Other patriotic airs followed as the
members exchanged farewells, 1.-The
Star Spangled Banner" alternating
with Dixie The speaker came
down from his rostrum, his appear
ance on the floor being greeted with
For He's a jolly Good Fellow" and
perfect rush of members to grasp
his hand. Standing in the area in
front of the clerks desk he joined in
the songs and there was a wild scene
when General Hooker of Mississippi,
the old one-armed Confederate vet
eran, took his place by the side of the
speaker and together they sang
Dixie Mr. Gambler, a Mississippi
Democrat, jumped upon a desk and
let out yell of jubilation that fairly
shook the rafters. For almost half an
hour the jubilation continued All
this time the spectators remained
standing in the galleries watching the
animated scene below and joining in
the singing
The adjournment came at the end
OF a seven and half hours session,
during which much minor business was
transacted. In all seventy bills and
resolutions were passed. The general
good feeling in the house had been
heightened by the victory won over
the senate on the item in the naval
appropriation bill for the building of
battleship in a government yard.
The closing hour was occupied with
a spirited debate between Mr.. Cousins
of Iowa and Mr.. Richardson, the Demo-
cratic leader, over the report on the
investigation into the charges made
by Captain Christmas concerning the
sale Of the Danish West Indies. Mr.
Cousins ridiculed Mr. Richardson for
bringing the matter to the attention of
congress. The latter defended his
course.
