Washington, Jan. 1.-THE senate
acted promptly on the house bill pro-
viding rebates of the duty on coal and
passed it unanimously, without debate
few minutes after it was brought
over from the house. The militia bill
was also passed with an amendment
striking out the section providing for
reserve force of trained men, thus
removing the objection made against
it. For an hour and a half Senator
Tfllman occupied the attention of the
senate in characteristic speech in
which he denounced trusts and mo-
nopolies and severely criticised the at
torney general. The statehood bill

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, Jan. lathe proceed
ings of the senate were enlivened by
speeches affecting the reciprocity pro-
vision of the Dingley act. While the
Vest resolution removing the duty on
coal was under discussion, Senator
Dolliver of Iowa vigorously attacked
those senators as responsible for the
holding up of the reciprocity treaties
in the senate. He defended Secre-
tary Shaw for issuing the order in
structing collectors to resolve differ
ences regarding the grades of coal in
favor of the importer. 1t was true,
he declared, that Dingley had put the
tariff rates high so they could be re-
duced by reciprocity agreements.
This statement called Senator Aid
rich vehemently to denounce Senator
Dolliver and others for making it..
The only intention, he said, of the
reciprocity provision of the Dingley
law was to secure agreements on
non-competitive products and he con-
tended it was not to be expected that
republican administration would
at the heart of protection. The res
olution went over. Among the bills
introduced was one by Senator Jones
introduced was one by Senator Jones
of Arkansas for an amendment to the
anti-lottery law so as to make the
prohibition extend to guessing con-
tests or competition of any kind for
prizes.
In the house Messrs. Grosvenor of
Ohio and Clark CT Missouri crossed
swords during the general debate on
the army appropriation bill Mr.. Hull
of Iowa argued against the abandon
ment of the army transport service;
Mr.. Shattuck of Ohio assailed Ed
ward Atkinson and the anti-imperial-
lists; Mr.. Moon of Tennessee de-
nounced the refusal of the house
leaders to allow the consideration of
the Indian Territory statehood bill
and announced a policy of obstruc-
ton which he intended to pursue I'M
less consideration was given it; Mr.
Swanson of Virginia argued the neces-
sity for tariff revision, and Mr. Gains
of Tennessee urged the advisability of
placing coal on the free list. A bill
was introduced by Mr.. Gibson of
Tennessee making it the duty of the
attorney general to apply to feder-
al courts for receiver in the event
of strike or disagreements which
stop the operations of the coal mines.
A bill was introduced by Representa-
tive Cochran of Missouri to authorize
national banks to issue currency Sc
cured by deposits of United States or
state and municipal bonds.

Washington, Jan. 15.-In the senate
/ Senator Tillman continued his ar
raignment of trusts and monopolies
/ and again charged the attorney gen
eral with responsibility primarily for
the lack of action against the trusts.
The statehood bill was under discus
sion for a short time, Senator Foraker
urging the right of Oklahoma, Arizona
and New Mexico to be admitted into
the union. Senator McLaurin of Miss
issippi called attention to the charges
that the people of Indianola, Miss.
were guilty of threats and intimida-
ton against the postmaster, and de-
clared them to be untrue. In ex-
ecutive session Senator Cullam re-
ported the Cuban treaty, and gave
notice that he would call it I'D next
Monday. An amendment adopted by
the senates committee contains this
proviso:
That while this convention is in
force, no sugar being the product of
the soil or the industry of the repub-
lie of Cuba shall be exported from
said republic to the United States at
a greater reduction of duty than 20
per cent. below the rates prescribed
by the act of July "a. 1897; that while
this convention is in force no sugar
shall be imported into the United
States from any foreign country at
lower rate of duty than that imposed
by the act of July "a. 1897
The house passed the army appro-
priation bill and began the consider
alton of the department of commerce
bill. The opposition to the measure
came from democrats and it was
based chiefly on the ground that the
transfer of the bureau OF labor to the
new department would subordinate
that bureau to department which
would represent capitalistic interests.
Representative Joy introduced
concurrent resolution directing the
house committee on naval affairs to
prepare bill providing for the con-
struction of rs additional battleships
at a cost not TO exceed $4,000, 900 each.
