CUBAN REOIPROCLTY MEN YIN.
Decisive Victory at Conference of Re'
 publican House Members.

Washington, March 1S.-The advo- cates of Cuban reciprocity scored de- cisive victory tonight at the conference of the republican members of the house of representatives, the proposition Of Chairman Payne of the ways and means committee for 20 per cent. re- duction of duty, with the Sibley amend ment limiting the duration of the re- duced rates to December l, 1905, being adopted by a vote of S5 years to 3l nays This result was reached at 11:3O o'clock, after a protracted debate fol lowed by a series of exciting roll calls. The first was when MT. Payne conclud- ed the speech making with motion for the previous question on all pending propositions. This motion prevailed,
 IS to 56. A vote was then taken on
 substitute offered by Representative
 Dick of Ohio, in behalf of those oppos-
 ing the reciprocity plan, offering in it's
 stead a plan of direct payment to Cuba
 covering several years. This was de
 feated, 57 to 79. An amendment by
 MT Morris of Minnesota to take off the
 differential sugar was defeated, 50 to
 72. The ways and means proposition
 for reciprocity with the Sibley amend
 ment limiting it's duration, was then
 agreed to, 85 to 31. While the voting
 was in progress quite a number of
 those who oppose the ways and means
 plan left the chamber.

BRITISH MINISTRY SUSTAINED.
Notion for War Investigation Commit
 tee Lost-An Angry Debate.

London March 1S.-The debate this evening in the House of Commons on the motion of the liberal leader, Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman, yesterday for the appointment of a select com mittee to investigate the whole com mercial history of the South African war, including the contracts for the purchase of remounts, meat and forage, and the contracts for freight and trans portation, called out several acrimoni- ous exchanges of remarks.
 Reginald McKenna liberal, comment ing on the remount department, declar- ed that widespread corruption in the horse purchases had been disclosed in almost every country on the globe.
 Lord Stanley financial secretary to the war office, interrupted MT. McKen- ma with an angry denial of a specific charge regarding the purchase of horses in Spain. He said the statement was maliciously false and demanded proofs of the assertion made. MT. McKenna said he took his facts from the report of the comptroller and auditor general.
 Mr. Lambton liberal-unionist, drew Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman fire by declaring that the leader of the op- position, by his reckless language, had taken from many people the consola- tion of feeling that their relatives who had died in South Africa had fallen honorably in the service of their coun- try.
 Ta t,;r ,,, Tor most complete and most circumstantial denial to every word the honorable gen. tleman has said"
 This statement caused confusion in the house and cries of Withdraw" But Sir Henry refused to withdraw his re- marks, and Mr. Lambton said his Ian guage to Sir Henry referred to meth ods of barbarian and similar talk about the concentration camps and other mat ters."
 The speaker declared both men out of order.
 MT. Norton advanced liberal, declar- ed that the losses on transport of each column in South Africa amounted to from 970,00O to z 100000
 H, Fl. Asquith, advanced liberal, strongly supported Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman's motion.
 A. J. Balfour, conservative, winding up the debate argued that the accept ance of the motion would hamper mili- tary operations and give advantage to the enemy, besides creating a bad precedent,
 Sir Henry's motion was rejected by vote of 346 to 191, the big majority ellie iting loud ministerial cheers.

CASE OF MAJOR WALLER.
4 SUCCESSFUL PLEA THAT ARMY
 HAS NO JURISDICTION.
CourtmartiaI Must Now be Mnde Under Naval Authority General ChRffee to Leave the Final Decision With the Authorities in Washington-Court Now Awaiting Orders.

| Manila, March 18.--The court martial appointed to try Major Littleton W. T. Waller and Lieutenant John H. l.. Day of the marine corps on the charge of executing natives of the island of Samar without trial held its first ses- sion to-day Major Waller was repre- sented by Captain Arthur T, Mark of the Marine corps, Major Edwin F.. Glenn of the armory and MT. sutro, a lawyer.
 The court over which General Will liam H. Bisbee presided was composed as follows: Marine corps, Colonel James Forney, Colonel Mancil c. Good rell Colonel Otway c. Berryman, Ma jor William P. Riddle, Captain Eli K. Cole and Captain Robert M. Gilson.
 Army-Colonel Cyrus S. Roberts, Col onel George S. Anderson, Colonel Allen Smith, Major Edgar B. Robertson and Captain Samson l. Faison.
 The judge advocate was Major Hen ry F. Kingsbury of the third cavalry.
 Captain Mark pleaded that the court lacked jurisdiction, as marines cannot be tried by the army, except when at tached to that service, whereas Major Waller returned to duty with the ma rines in February, though the acts charged occurred in January, and, con- sequently, the army had voluntarily forfeited it's right to a trial. The or ders of either General Chaffee, Secre- tary Long or the president, Captain Marix asserted, were not sufficient to legalize the proceedings.
 The court after a lengthy consider ation of the matter decided that the point was well taken.
 General Chaffee is now considering the courts decisions and probably, will leave the final decision to the author ities at Washington.
 The court, in the meantime is held, awaiting orders.

Position for Gnrheid's Son.

Washington, March 1S.-It is under stood that the president has about de cided to tender the civil service com missionership made vacant by the res ignation of w. A. Rodenburg to Harry A. Garfield of Cleveland, O., a son of President Garfield. There is some doubt, however as to whether he will accept the office, though it is believed to be an appointment with some attractions for him as he has taken an interest in civil service reform for some years, more es- pecially in connection with the i'm provement of municipal government and the consular service. Should he decline to accept it is said that the appointment may be rendered to his brother, James R. Garfield, who lives a t Mentor, the old Garfield home. He was a member of the Ohio state senate sev- eral years ago, and has taken an active part in politics.
