Debate on Venezuelan Question.

London, March 3.-The debate in
the house of lords yesterday on the
Venezuelan question served to fan tho
hame of editorial attack on the gov.
ernment for its conduct of tho Vene.
zuelan affair but failed to throw anv
FRESH light upon It. Lord Rosebery
was in his fighting mood and made a
brilliant and spirited attack on the
governments foreign policy, seizlne
upon Lord Lansdowne's statement
that Germany a year ago obtained
the consent OF the United States TO
coerce Venezuela. Lord Rosebery
centered his attack on the question OF
Great Britain's relations with the
United States. He said that the gov.
eminent had no right to approach

FILleUsTER WEARIEs HOUSE.
Clerks and Members Alike Feel StraIr
of Constant Roll Calls.

of Constant Roll Calls.
Washington, March 3.-From IL
O'Clock in the morning until late last
night the house struggled laboriously
against the Democratic filibuster,
working steadily to wind up the neces-
sary business of the session. Despite
another special rule adopted early in
the day, legislation proceeded at a
snail's pace. Roll call followed roll
call on every proposition. The voices
of the reading clerks were worn out
by the ceaseless call of the roll and
several clerks from committees have
been drafted to help out. Since Thurs
day last, when the filibuster was inau-
gurated there have been over sixty
roll calls, as against fifty-seven for
the entire long session, lasting from
Dec. 10, 1901, to July 13, 1902. The
members also show the effects of the
heavy strain, but they are sticking to
their posts. Last night the great hall
presented a dishevelled appearance.
The floor was strewn with bits Of pa
per, looking as If snow storm had
swept through the hall. In the gal
leries were many weary watchers In
terested in bills doomed to failure,
but still hoping on to the end. The
proceedings were enlivened several
times as the leaders Of the respect
i've sides crossed swords. Their
tempers had not been sweetened by
their long vigil and frequently the
sparks new.
The conference reports on the Alas
kan homestead bill and the immigra-
ton bill were adopted the omnibus
public building bill and the general
deficiency appropriation bill were sent
to conference. The Often bill, to pro-
hibit tobacco dealers from giving
prizes and the bill to provide for a
delegate from Porto Rico were passed
The house also adopted the confer
ence reports on the postoffice and agri
culture bills and shortly before mid
night, at the end Of continuous ses
sion OF almost thirteen hours, took a
recess until II a. m.

LOSS OF cAmsRlAN PRINCE.
Sole Survivor Picked Up at sea Says
Ship Capsized.


Ship capsized.
Hamburg, March 3.-The carpenter
Of the British ship Cambrian Prince.
Captain owens, from Coquimbo for
Middlesborough, has been picked up
In the North sea. He reports that the
Cambrian Prince capsized and sank.
The ships carpenter gives the follow.
Ing account Of his experiences
THE Cambrian Prince was driven
helplessly along the coast for six days
by the gale and we were unable to
make Middlesborough, our destina.
tion. On the morning OF Feb. 27 the
storm increased to a hurricane. A
tremendous'w wave rolled the ship over
to such an extent that the cargo
shifted and the succeeding waves
completely capsized her She sank
within a few minutes. and four
others managed to escape In smah
life boat. We had life belts on and
though we were repeatedly washed
out Of the boat by the heavy seas, we
succeeded with the greatest difficulty
In clambering back again. One after
another my comrades lost strength
and were lost overheard. One pre-.
viously went mad. When the storm
hac subsided was the sole survivor"
The carpenter, Hellsten by name,
had been drifting about in the life
boat for twenty-six hours, period of
agonizing suspense, before he was
picked up. He supposes that the re-
mainder OF the crew Of the Cambrian
Prince were all drowned.

FOLDS NIGHT SESSION
Senate Debates the Aldrich
Finance Bill.
HOUSE ADOPTS A NEW RULE

Design is to Further Limit Power OF
Minority to obstruct Business.
Makes Some Progress In Legislation
Despite Democratic Filibustering.
Washington, March 3.-The senate
yesterday passed the general deficien-
cy till after four hours considera-
tion and after 1t had been amended
in several particulars. An amend.
ment by Rawlins, calling for Cn ap-
preparation of S50,000000 to further
the work Of irrigating the arid lands,
furnished material for considerable
discussion, Rawlins contending that
the surplus in the treasury could be
better used in this manner than by
turning II into the national banks.
The amendment was rejected on a
financial bill was taken up, Teller con-
tinued his remarks begun Saturday.
He was followed by Carmack, who re-
piled to some criticisms OF a recent
speech by him on the subject of muir
ders in the Philippines. During the
course of the day the conference re-
port on the appropriation bills and
the Alaskan homestead bill were
agreed to. The immigration and ON
nibus buildings bills were sent to con.
ference.
Morgan got the floor soon after the
night session began and held it for
nearly two hours.
Bailey made a strong plea against
filibusterng.
Tillman convulsed the senate by dc
claring that Quay "the most a;tute
politician in the United States. had
buncoed the Democrats on the state
hood BILL using it to defeat tho trust
legislation.
Quay denied this, saying he hal
pressed the statehood bill before the
antitrust campaign began, Aldrich
said the obstructive tactics surprised
him and that he wanted the country
to know where the responsibility rests
should the bill fail.
The conference report on the post
office and the agricultural appropria.
ton bills were agreed to and the de-
ficiency bill sent to conference. AT
midnight the senate adjourned.

the first floor of his home on Ashland

pulp. During that time the district

force of the city have worked night
and day on the case. There does not
appear the remotest possibility OF an
arrest, although the authorities will
not deny that they are working along
some definite lines.

Fort Scott, Kan, March 3.-Mis-
souri, Pacific passenger train No. 40
collided head-on with freight train
on a trestle four miles west of Fort

tanned cuts and bruises but none are
