HOUSE TAXES UP
 BILLS FUR NAVY Senate Amendments to Indian
 Measure Disagreed To LlTTLEFIELD VS SULZER Former Rises to Point of Privilege and
Former Rises to Point of Privilege and Takes Exception to Remarks of Gentleman From New York
 and Sulzer Gets Even.

l Washington, February 1.-The house l began today the consideration of the na- val appropriation bill under the operation of rule which made the new legislation relative to the increase of the personnel of the navy and for the increase of the naval academy in order
 The senate amendments to the Indian appropria tion bill were disagreed to and the bill sent to conference. Messrs. Sher- man. Curtis of Kansas and Little of Ar kansas were appointed conferees.
 Mr. Littlefed and MT. Sulzer had an interesting clash before the naval bill was taken up.
 Mir Littlefeld arose to a question of privilege in connection with same remarks made by MT. Sulzer last Saturday, He charged that MT. Sulzer on that occasion had misrepresented him in various ways He said MT. Sulzer subsequently, had ! corrected his remarks to make it appear that he, MT. I4ttefed, was present and characterized the alleged misrepresenta- tion as deliberate, premeo.tated and in- tentional" He read a newspaper article inserted in Mr. Sulzers remarks describ-
  bill and commented upon the statements in the article denying them seriatim. He declared among other things that the antitrust bill had been prepared by him self and the other members of the sub committee of the judiciary committee af- ter consulta tions with the attorney gen eral
 He also denied the reports of an alleged conference between the President and himself, at which the President was rep resented as displeased with the Little field bill.
 MT. Sulzer replied to MT Littlefeld In semi-humorous vein. He spoke of MT. Lit tlefeld's speech just made as his de fense for his failure to pass his antitrust bill in fulfllment of his alleged promise to his constituents last summer to pass it, or know the reason why"
 The issue raised by MT. Littlefield he denominated a mere quibble," which demonstrated the gentleman's inability to be flair, decent or courteous"
 "He is so puffed up with his own van- ity," said MT. Sulzer, that he can see no good in anybody or anything except himself and his measures. He is like the dog that barks, gets bitten and then whines. He whines not so much against me as against the powers that be, and not so much against the powers that be, as to square himself with the promise he made last summer"
 Amid great laughter he said: Let the galled jade vince, my withers | are unwrung"
 At D. m. the house adjourned.

UNITARIAN CHURCH MOVEMENT.
The Rev. MT. Langston Spoke at Tenn
 pie Emanuel Last Night.

A brief preliminary Unitarian service was held last night in the Sunday school room of Temple Emanuel. Plans for the meetings tonight and tomorrow night were discussed. The Rev. c. A. Lang ston. pastor of the First Unitarian church of Atlanta. was present and made short talk on the general subject of re- ligion.
 The cold snap prevented many from be- ing out Mir. Langston will speak tonight and the Rev. Thomas R. Slicer, D. D., of New York city. will speak tomorrow even ing. All the services will be held at Temple Emanuel.
 Dr. Slicer is one of the most distln- guished Unitarian ministers in this coun- try. and many will doubtless go to hear him.

 The speaker said that if the bill passed the house, carrying as It does S6,ooo,Voo' the senate would likely increase thls amount to s15,OO0 GOO, which he did not propose to stand for" He had there- fore. decided to have the measure go through the senate and then the house would act upon it If it were kept down to a reasonable amount.
 Chairman Mercer, Representative Bank head of Alabama and other members of the committee talked the matter over to- day with the speaker They are trying to get him to change his determination though 1t seems likely that the bill must first be acted upon by the senate.
