DoiNes OF CONGRESS.
Philippine BiE Debate Continued.
 Oleo Measure Before House.

eA
 WASHINGTON, April 24.-Mr. Raw lins (Utah) yesterday continued his speech in the senate opposing the Phil ippine temporary government bill. He devoted the greater part of his speech to a discussion of the testimony pre- sented to the Philippines committee re- lating to the administration of the wa ter cure" to natives and to other forms of torture inflicted on the Filipinos. He had not concluded his remarks when the senate adjourned.
 During the early part of the session the bill providing for a union railroad station in Washington was under con- sideration, but no action was taken.
 The house began consideration of the senate amendments to the oleomarga- rine bill. A special rule for this pur- pose was adopted by a vote of 152 to 79. By the ruling of the chair the ques- tion of further amendment of the sen- ate propositions was confined within very narrow limits

Every club woman, by now, knows OF "a
sreat work accomplished by the circnat .ns
