It's clearance that is going to clear the Suit

We've had big season in the School of

favorable We had to have big stock to do

THE LEGISLATURES.

The legislature reconvened yesterday.
AS stated in the Gazette there was
quorum 10 the Senate, but not IN the
House, and neither body transacted any
business,
A message was laid before the lattes
body BY Governor Montague yetoing the
bill which seeks to Withhold from the State
banks the privilege of issuance of notes of
circulation. The Governor says:
at is true that this privilege has not
been exercised for many years by reason
of the very large tax imposed by the
national Government. Yet no one can
foresee when it may be most desirable or
urgent to exercise such authority. The
existence of the law comforting power
unavailed of is harmless and future ext
gences or a repeal of the Federal tax
might necessitste the exercise of such
privilege in theinterest Of public welfare.
| would therefore suggest that if the
present statute authorizing State banks of
circulation be incompatible with any
existing law the statute be not repealed,
but rather perfected to preserve the full
power of issuance.

WAR CLAIMS.

At the last session OF Congress bill was
passed for the allowance of claims Of certain
citizens of Virginia for damages to their
property incident to the encampment at Ma
nassas and march from Camp Alger TO
Thoroughfare Gap, Virginia, as recommended
by board Of officers appointed for the con-
sideration of claims for damages to property
by volunteer soldiers during the war with
Spain. The bill was vetoed by the President
on the ground that some of those whose names
appeared ia the bill had no just claims for
damages or had already been compensated
for any damages they had sustained. Mr..
Rixey at this session reintroduced the bill,
eliminating the names of those whose claims
were not Just, and it was referred 10 the COM
mittee on war claims. A favorable report up
on the bill has been made and it is now on
the House calendar. Mr.. Rixey will en-
deavor to have it passed at the first oppor-
tunity. The following names we're stricken

MIR. RIXEY AND SOLDIERS
HOMES.

Congressman John F. Rixey has
written to Adjutant J. Taylor Stratton,
of Lee Camp of Richmond, in regard to
the following resolution recently adopted
by the camp'
''Whereas, R. E. Lee Camp, No. /,
Confederate Veterans, has learned Of the
introduction in the national House of
Representatives of resolution looking
to the admission of Confederate veterans
into National Soldiers Homes, and
"Whereas, the camp comedies to the
mover patriotic and praiseworthy motives,
vet believes that such law would meet
with no favor in any part of the South
ern States; therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Hon. John F.
Rixey be. and he is hereby, respectfully
requested to withdraw said resolution"
The letter of Mr.. Rixey is as follows :
December 30, 1908.
Captain j. Taylor Stratton. Adjutant,
r. E. Lee Camp, No, l, G. ", Rich
mond, Va:
My Dear Sir.-I acknowledge receipt
Of your favor of the 10Th instant, en-
closing copy of resolution adopted by R.
E. Lee Camp, condemning "a resolution
looking to the admission of Confederate
veterans into National Soldiers Homes. J"
invite the attention of your camp to
the factthat the resolution only referes to
the first section of the bill. The sec
ond section has no reference to the Ma
tional Homes, nor does it admit Union
veterans into State Confederate Homes,
nor Confederate veterans into State
Union Homes. This second section pro-
vides, as you will see from a copy of the
bill which | enclose, that the benefit of
laws giving aid to States maintaining
Union Homes shall be extended to those
States maintaining Confederate Homes.
This would occasion no mingling Of the
veterans, and the Homes would remain
as they now are, under the control of the
respective States.
In view Of the fact that all sections
contribute alike to the amounts which
the national government paysthe States
for this purpose, should not the.proyision
be broad enough to embrace all States
maintaining Soldiers Homes? Why re-
strict the benefit to those States main
tanning homes for Union veterans? Why
not include all States maintaining homes
for veterans, whether Union or Confed-
crate?
l should be glad to know if your camp
also objects to this provision.
Under all of the circumstances, / sub
nit that it would be proper, before con-
demning the bill, at least to afford me
an opportunity to be heard in its de-
tense.
l have great respect for the views of
Lee Camp, and its conclusions, after fair
discussion, would have great weight
with me.
With sentiments of respect, | remain,
Very truly yours,
John 4. RIXEY.

In REFERENCE to the opposition IL
the Senate to the confirmation OF Gen
Wood a Washington paper says; Ill il
even said that Senator German, who
still bitterly resents the action OF the
President in interfering in the election
in MARYLAND, and the attempt made 10
defeat him, intends to make personal
fight upon General Wood and any other
Of the friends Of the President who may
come before the Senate for confirmation
Senator German has just gound for re-
sentipg the President interferenceln the
MARYLAND election last fall and admins
tered such a rebuke to Mr.. Roosevelt at
that time that doubtless the latter regrets
having ever heard of a Maryland election
But Senator German is too broad man
10 visit the shortcomings of the Presl-
dent upon Others, and if he opposes the
confirmation of Gen. Wood it will be on
the ground of the latter's unhtness to
hold the position, as has been clearly
shown by the published testimony in
the matter.

COMMUNICATED
A LESSON FROM CHICAGO.

There is not a town or city in the United
States with population of 500or more that is
exempt from the fate that befell Chicago sew
eral days ago. There are houses Of worship,
halls of amusement, school buildings, lodge
rooms, &C., all of which need arbitrary build
ing regulations and periodical inspections by
persons competent to perform such duties.
The cry of Fire" under any circumstances is
alarming, and alarm is the cause Of certain
degrees of insanity. But when this occurs Ia
crowded hall, this form of insanity gets be-
yond control therefore, we must have meet
ing rooms arranged so that large audience
can be discharged with the least loss Of time.
We have what some believe are death traps in
our city. The Mayor and the City Council
should leave no stone unturned in their exer-
tions to have all halls and other places of pub
lie assemblage made absolutely perfect 50 far
as safety is concerned. j. V. X.

IOWA'S CAPITOL DAMAGED.

AS has been stated in the Gazette, fire
Yesterday Quilted the northwest wing Of
the Iowa capitol at Des Moines, causing
loss of $500, 600 The chamber OF the
h 1use of representatives is charred mass
of debris and cannot be repaired in time
for the approaching session of the legis-
lature. At one time it was thought that
the entire building was doomed, and
Gov. Cummins ordered the contents of
all the Offices removed. The origin of
the fire is unknown. The supposition is
that it started from a candle or from an
electric light wire. The fire originated
near shaft in a committee room and
spread upward and all around the CELL
ing of the chamber. The fire depart
ment was hindered in fighting the
flames by the height of the building
and the elevation of the capitol.
They worked only to cut off the progress
of the flames. The gallery of the house
chamber fell with a crash, the debris in
juring two firemen and endangering the
lives of several. The State library was
hastily removed and the State Offices
were emptied. The funds of the State
treasurer were hastily loaded on a wagon
and carried to bank. Gov. Cummins9
clad in rubber boots and rough coat,
fought the fire. The fire finally burned
itself out. Last night the capitol pre-
sented scene of desolation. The mar
BILE stair-cases are covered with ice, the
floors are floating with water, and the
Offices under the burned part of the
building are flooded. The Iowa capitol
is built along the lines of the New York
capital at Albany. 1t cost SO, 900, 600.

RUSSIA AND JkPAN.

A dispatch from St. Petersburg says
the following is the actual situation in the
Far East: Russia's reply to Japan is
now in thehands of the Viceroy, Admiral
Alexieff, for him to deliver when he
considers the fitting moment has arrived.
1t is emphatically asserted at the
Foreign Office that Russia has not
given up the idea of a peaceful
issue, all depending upon whether Japan
is in earnest in her declarations to this
government regarding her desire FIR peace
which is beginning to be much doubt
ed, in view of her extensive war prepare
tons daily being announced.
As to whether Russia's reply will be
acceptable to Japan or not, no one
will give an opinion. 1t has been calm
" and carefully considered and, from
Russia's point of view, is framed in terms
which Japan can accept with honor,
and she must take the gravest response
bility by refusing it.
The next word lies with Japan. Ac-
cordingly the question of peace or wal
rests in her hands. The answer may be
known at any moment.

TUESDAY EVENING. JAN. ., 1904.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT YESTERDAY

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT yesterday
sent to Congress a special message de-
Tending the administration position
as regards Panama and the isthmlsn
canal. The message contained little thai
is new and its chief feature is the Pre'I-
dents denial that the administration IN
any way fomented or melted the reyolu-
ton in Panama, or that it gave aid or
encouragement to the reyolutionlsts.
1t, however, ignored entirely the main
fact, ''that by the armed power OF the
United States Colombia has been pre-
vented from asserting her authority in
Panama" AS we'll said by Senator
Bacon:
1.-The Pesident ignores that which Is
the most pertinent andimportant fact IN
the transaction; that is, that by the
armed power of the United States Co.
lombia has been prevented from assert
ing her authority in Panama. Outside
of this armed intervention of the United
States there would be no case. 1t Is
this fact, thus ignored, which raises all
the serious questions in this transaction
If Panama. had achieved her indepen-
dence without this direct aid from the
United States, there would be no diff
ficulty presented as to what we
should do"
The message is said in Congress by
republicans to be a strong State paper
and by democrats to be as fimsy as any
which ever emanated from the White
House.

in the medical department of the Uni

Brown, the adopted daughter of Mrs.
c. NJ. Brown, mother of Kenneth Brown,
the author, were secretly married at
Lynchburg on the evening of Tuesday,
December %.
No foreign insurance companies were
qualified to do business in Virginia yes
terday because of their failure to comply
with the law, which requires them to file
copies of their charters with the auditor

lieving them of these requirements is
now pending in the legislature and has
passed one branch.
Near Orlean, in Fauquier county, on
New Years eve, large barn, on which

Commonwealth Attorney Wenden-
burg has taken a hand in the much
complicated dual treasurership of Henrico
county, and yesterday he informed Mr..

collect the uncollected taxes, but directs
that they shall be turned over to the

yesterday appointed deputy treasurers.
At meeting OF the executive COM
mittee of the jamestown Exposition,

subscribed was made, and a call issued
for a meeting of the stockholders of the
exposition on January Is, when board
of directors will be elected. The new
directors of the exposition will elect a
president, director general, secretary, and
other officers. 1t was predicted last
night that Gen. Fitz Lee would be re-
elected president, but this is not in any
way certain, as a strong faction of stock
holders are in favor Of electing an expe
rienced exposition man as president and
director general.
