MINOR CHANGES IN RUSSIAN TREATY
PHILIPPINE BILL UP.
Proposed Guarantee of Railroad
Bonds Discussed.

Washington Dec 12-The Senate had the Pure
Food and Philippine Government bills under consd
Grafton to-day. Debate the former was confined
calling attention the inadequacy Of the pro-
lection given the people of the United States
against impure foods and drugs.
The discussion OF the Philippine bill related solely
to the question of the guarantee by the Philippine
government of the income interest on bonds o.
railroads in those islands.
Mr. spooner alta cked the provision relating TO
the guarantee. and said the Philippine Commission
should not be authorized to make it, Replying to
suggestion by, Mr. Newlands. that the Philippine
government build the railroads. Mr.. Spooner said
he was not much caraiva ted with the idea Of
eminent ownership OF railroads If the government
under any circumstances was to guarantee divi-
dends stock. the railroad company ought not to
be permitted to put that property q mortgage
lien ahead of that stock without the consent OF
Congress
This suggestion Mr. Lodge chairman of the
committee thought a wise one. He said it might
be necessary to protect interests of the govern
ment although he felt the Philippine Commission
would safeguard the interests OF the United States
Denying that he had become convert to gov

IRON THE TRIBUNE BUREAU.l

Washington. Dec 12-Judge Swayne, of the
United States District Court of Florida, will prob
ably be mpeached by the House and tried before

consequence Of the unanimous report Of the House

action.
Just before Congress adjourned last session, the
House Notwithstanding majority report favor
ing the Impeachment Of Judge Swayne referred
the whole back to the committee the testi-
mony already taken being not considered OF q
character 10 Justify extreme measures. Since then
the additional evidence given before the committee
has indicated to its members, the minority
which had opposed impeachment, that the state
ments OF Judge Swayne concerning his travelling
expenditures were false. offence sufficiently
grave. in the committees judgment to warrant his
impeachment The, majority and the minority OF
the committee now recommend impeachment al
though they arrive at this conclusion by different
lines of reasoning The majority report previously
submitted. sets forth that Judge Swaynes judicial
acts call for his impeachment. while the minority
report, handed in to-day. condemns the practice Of
the accused judge IN falsely certifying that he ex
pended SO day, while in reality he had spent con-
s!deraby less in legitimate expenses for travel and
attendance.
The case. as IT now stands, is tantamount to a
unanimous indictment by grand jury composed
exclusively Of able lawyers. who after IN ex-
haustive investigation OF the charges against the
accused man, recommended his impeachment If
this indictment is approved by the House. the
Senate will be the court before which the Indicted

that Of high crimes and misdeneanors. punishable
