HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

After passing a bill - extend the provis-
lens of the-act Of January u, 1903, to the
Usage reservation, in Oklahoma, the House
resumed consideration of .the naval appro-
priation bill. and Mr. Cooper continued his
fight against the provision for naval train
ing station on the great lakes.
At the conclusion of rdr. Coopers remarks
Chairman Foss entered upon an elaborate
defense of the board that selected the site.
When Mr.. Foss disclaimed any personal
interest in the selection of site, Mr. Payne
asked if he would object to an amendment
limiting the amount to be paid per acre to
$3.50 or $500, in view of the fact that the
price of the Lake Bluff site was held at
$500 an acre.
Yes, l WILL replied Mr.. Foss, with the
declarations that it was the naval station
he wanted, although he saw reason why
site should not be selected in his district
simply because he was chairman of the
naval committee.
Mr.. Foss read a letter from the board
to select site sent to him this morn
ing through the Secretary of the Navy,
stating that the Racine site never was
offered, and that at another time when
they went to Racine the carriage horses
We're so slow that the proposed site was
not reached until after dark.
When Mr.. Foss had spoken half an hour
he asked unanimous consent for thirty
minutes more.
Il object interrupted Mr.. Grosvenor.
Mr.. Hepburn, who was in the chair. put
the request of Mr.. Fess to the committee.
Mr.. Grosvenor failed to repeat his objec-
ton, and the time asked was granted.
Shortly afterward Mr.. Grosvenor protested.
II objected in a loud voice, he declared,
'snd with so much vehemence that / was
personally threatened by one of these Fake
Bluff representatives"
In explaining further Mr.. Grosvenor said
he had been refused a question by Mr..
Foss in a most insulting manner, and that
Immediately thereafter Mr.. Foss had
yielded TO two or three other gentlemen.
Mr.. Foss disclaimed any intention to be
discourteous. He was allowed to conclude.
Mr. Southland (Ohio) followed in favor of
the selection of Put-in-Bay on Lake Erie.
He began with the statement that the
report of the board had evidently created
considerable commotion on the shores of
Lake Michigan ''south of 43 degrees and
20 minutes
Mr.. Crumpacker Und) spoke briefly for
the Lake Bluff site.
Mr.. Stafford (Wis.) spoke for Milwau-
kee as the proper site for the training
station.

The House committee on judiciary today
began series of hearings on the Grosvenor
bill, to limit the meaning of the word
conspiracy, sand 'the use of restraining
orders" ard 5nlpnctions.
lean Federation of Labor, presented his
views in favof1of the measure before leav-
ing for Porto Rico.
A large delegation, headed by James NJ
Beck former assistant attorney general,
and Daniel Davenport were present today
in oppositlpn itpft.
S. Keighfer sfNPittsburg, representing the
National, Building Trades Employees AsSo-
citation, A4tereh a protest in behalf of his
associates on the ground that existing laws
were amply sufficient to enable employees to
secure their rights and none too strong to
secure to tfie en- piOying classes the security
of their property. 1t would destroy per-
sonal liberty and free institutions of gov
eminent, he declared.
Mr.. Beck said he represented the Building
Trades League of Chicago, the American
Anti-Boycott Association and the National
Association OF Marble Dealers. Mr.. Beck
based his opposition on four fundamental
reasons: First, the bill was ambiguous and
would give rise to a flood of evils; second,
Il was Gncafled for; third, it would legalize
nlawfuls violent and criminal conspiracieS
in restraint of trade, and fourth, its provis-
ions were Unconstitutional
Mr.. Beck declared that If enacted into
law the bill would effectually repeal the
Sherman antitrust law. Under it is would
be possiblett0 form the Northern Securities
Company on the ground that such a COM
bination would be in furtherance of settle
ment of trade disputes. Mr.. Beck quoted
Mr. Gompers of the Federation of Labor
and Mr. Mitchell of the Mine Workers AS
ISOLATION as Saying that they would not
personally obey an injunction If they
deemed it an interference with their rights
as they saw them.

COMMISSIONERS FORBES.
May Decline Appointment Because of
His Uncle's Death.

Secretary Taft returned to Washington
from Cincinnati this morning, and had a
very busy day at the department. Came
ron Forbes, confirmed as a Philippine COM
missioner, called by appointment upon the
Secretary and indicated disposition to
decline the appointment on the ground
that the recent death of his uncle re-
auired his undivided attention In caring
for the business interests that fell to his
charge. The Secretary was extremely anX-
ious to secure Mr. Forbes services because
of his executive and technical abilities, and
induced him to withhold final decision Tor
a time 1t is probable that II the new
commissioner is not required to repair 10
Manila in the immediate future he may
be able to arrange his business so as uiti-
mately to accept the appointment.
