IMPROVEMENTS ON THE MANSION
ARE CRITICISED.

Senators Consider That the Outlay

Inadequate ResuIts-secOnd Class

the observation-disclosures Sarcastic
over 1t.
Washington. Feb. 29.-The architec-
tural changes made in the White House
were the subject of large share of to-
days discussion in the Senate, and they
were generally criticised as falling far
short of the improvements which should
have been secured with the 100000 ap-
propriated for the purpose.
The discussion arose in connection
with the consideration of the bill pro-
viding for the erection of building for
the joint use of the Departments of
State, Justice and Commerce and La
Dor. That bill was the special order of
the day, and it's consideration was not
concluded.
Mr.. Cockrell thought there were sec
ond-class lawyers offices all over the
country better than the executive office
on the White House grounds.
Mr.. Tillman styled the Presidents
office an abortion and the Washington
postoffice an abomination.
Mr.. Bailey called attention to the
needs of an Office building for the use
of senators, saying that the Senate an
mex was so unsafe that senators were
not allowed III "a ysrvvS hooEs n their
rooms in that building. He thought
safe building for senators the most ur-
gent building need of the government.
. Mr.. Newlands suggested that an an
mex to the Senate be constructed like
that~to the White House, and this sug-
gestion brought from Mr.. Bacon the,
sarcastic remark that the country could
better afford to take a risk upon the
lives of senators than to duplicate the
White House addition.

TURNED UPON TRADE.
Reciprocity With Canada Discussed
in the House.

in the House.
Washington, Feb. 29.-In the House
to-day Mr.. DaizeH of ,Pennsgl-
vania, discussing Canadian recip-
rocity. said he had been unable
to find. after exhaustive re-
search, a single, solitary argument
which would justify the negotiation of
a reciprocity treaty between the Unit
ed States and Canada.
Mr.. Williams of Mississippi, respond
ing to Mr.. Dalzell, asked the majority
why they did not pass the Kasson
treaties, which, he said, represented
Mckinley reciprocity.
Mr.. Lowering of Massachusetts
aroused the minority to applause when
he declared that, while we are talking
about standing pat, the great ship of
business is drifting on the rocks and
our boasted prosperity is fast coming
to an end
Mr.. Lowering prefaced this by say
ing that millions of dollars had been
lost to manufacturers and thousands
OF laborers had been deprived of work
because the government had not en-
larged the drawback system.
He said the manufacturers wanted
an outlet for their surplus products,
and that the demand for the new mar
kets caused them to realize that pro-
duction had passed beyond domestic
consumption, and therefore relief must
be afforded. 3ae
He urged the South to increase the
output of cotton and said immigra-
Ilon was greatly needed in the South.
Ihese things, he said, would material
ly aid in the solution of the race ques-
ton. A number of Southern members
congratulated Mr. Lowering when he
had concluded.
The House adjourned until to-mor-
row
