yesterday passed without objection or
discussion the Elkins bill to further
regulate railroad transportation. The
army appropriation bill was passed.
The provision establishing a general
stan was eliminated. Later the indie

continued his remarks in opposition to
the statehood bill.
In the House..
The house spent practically the
whole day on claims bills coming over
from last week. Mr.. Payne, the floor
leader OF the majority, fought them
all, but succeeded in defeating only
three bills. After the claims measures
were disposed Of, general debate on
the postoffice appropriation bill was

In the House,

Washington, Feb. 6.-The antitrust
bill debate, which opened in the house
yesterday did not develop much ami
nation. although there was a fairly
large attendance in the galleries. The
rule under which the house was to
operate. however. precipitated a live
ly discussion. The Democrats pro-
tested vigorously against the rule for
consideration of the bill because it did
not permit them to cur a record
vote on a substitute, but the Republic
ans replied that they were willing to
accept the responsibility. The bill to
expedite antitrust prosecutions &c
casioned 40 debate. 1t passed the
house. as it did the senate, yesterday,
without a word of debate. The postof-
fee appropriation bill was passed be-
fore the trust bills were taken up.

Discussion of the statehood bill in
the senate yesterday turned on the
question of polygamy. The influence
of the Mormon church over politics

bate on the antitrust bill closed in the

galleries and to a very large attend
ance on the floor. To-day for three
hours the bill will be considered under

In the Senate.
For a time yesterday in the senate
it looked as If the question of construc-
ton of an isthmian canal would be dis
cussed in open session. Mr.. Morgan
spoke on his resolution calling on the
secretary of the navy for correspond
ence regarding the military occupation
of the Bays of Panama and Colon. He
had no proceeded far. however, when
Mr.. Cullom, who had been following
him closely, interrupted with a motion
for an executive session, which MI.
Morgan resisted. The chair overruled
Mr.. Morgan's objections and the doors
were closed. When open session was
resumed Mr.. Morgan predicted that if
the United States continued it's policy
with reference to the construction of
an isthmian canal war with Colombia
was inevitable.
After Mr.. Kean had spoken a short
time in opposition to the statehood
bill, the senate adjourned out OF re-
spect to the memory of the late Repre-

Conference on the Plague.

The law also provides that upon the petit
ton of the health authorities Of five or
more states, such a conference shall be
called by the surgeon general of the states
joining in the petition. Acting under this
last provision SOME twenty states joined in
a petition for conference to take action
regarding the San Francisco plague situa-
ton last winter; the conference was held
in this city. and, as result, 1t is believed
that measures have been taken whereby
the plague on the Pacific coast has been
gotten under entire control. Suggestions
were adopted for certain sanitary measures
In Chinatown, San Francisco, and matters
seem to have gone much more smoothly in
that city as the result of the conference
The subject matter which may be discussed
at such conferences is practically not limit
ed and there will undoubtedly be efforts
made to bring about uniformity in the vari-
GUS state quarantine laws through this
means This 1t Is believed, may be done by
calling conference of, say, half dozen
states, agreeing on certain uniform laws
and securing their enactment. With this
as a basis other states may be called in
ment Of the same suggestions, and in this
way gradual uniformity be established
which would be practically impossible
should all of the states participate in the
initial conference.
There is authority given In the new law
by which the service may publish mortality
statistics gathered by the various state
health organizations. This feature has not
yet been put into practice, but will be as
soon as possible, and will result according

try. through a compilation of reliable sta
