Some few years ago the railways of

but which are now manufactured there.

congress were presented to the house
yesterday by Chairman Hemenway,
of the appropriations committee, and
Representative Livingston, of Geor-
gia, the ranking democratic member
of that committee.
After reviewing the expenditures
for the next fiscal year, Mr.. Hemen-
way concludes: "The expenditures
of our government in their aggregate,
as exhibited by the appropriations of
congress, are large and yet, according
to the very best authority, our ma
tiOnal government is the most eco
nomically administered of any in the
civilized world" A table to substan-
tiate this statement is given showing
the per capita expenditures of the
leading nations. The highest given ia
New Zealand, where the per capita
expense is $303S, the lowest is the
United States, with a per capita of
$7.97.
The total appropriations made by
this congress aggregate, according to
Mr.. Hemenway, $7S1, ,574,629. OF this
sum $2G,S01, ,S43 was to pay deficien-
cies for prior fiscal years and $780,
100000 is set aside for application to
the sinking fund. This leaves the to-
tai appropriation for the expenses of
the government for the year 1905
$G9S,272, ,7SG. The total estimated
revenues for this period are $7O4,472,-
eco, or an excess over appropriations
of $G,199.274.

House Honcred Speaker Cannon by
the Adoption of a Resolution

Fair Dealing.

Washington, April 29.-With briei
announcement and a sharp rap of his
well-worked gavel, President Pro
TEN Frye adjourned the senate sine
die at 2 p. m. Thursday, the hour fixed
by resolution of the two houses of
congress. The occurrence was de
void of unusual incident and the final
close of the session was but slightly
different from the end of an ordinary
days sitting. The work of the ses-
sion had been concluded before the
final word was said, so that neither
rush nor confusion marked the end
The senate began its days work at
1890 a. m, but the greater part of tho
time was devoted to a political de
bate, participated in on the republi-
can side by Messrs. Allison and Aid
rich, and on the democratic side by
Messrs. German and Culberson.
The only important acts of legisla-
tion during the day were the presen.
tation and acceptance of conference
reports on the Panama canal govern
ment and emergency river and har
Dor bills. Neither report aroused
debate.

of the house of the fifty eighth con
gress was made notable by the dem

resolution offered by Mr.. Williams
the minority leader, testifying to the
courtesy and impartial manner in
which Speaker Cannon had presided
over the house The resolution was
not of the perfunctory kind, but wa!
expressive of the kindly feeling which
men in the house of all parties enter
tanned toward him. In a graceful
speech the speaker declared his ap
probation of the resolution.
Many conference reports were
agreed to on bills which had been in
dispute between the two houses. The

The members, after the speaker
announced final adjournment, joined
in singing patriotic airs, and slowly
filed out of the hall after shaking
hands with the speaker and bidding
him goodbye.

Baptists Beaten by the BIacksmiths
on a Score of 10 to 4.
Atlanta, March 26.-While the great
est crowd of the season watched and
waited in a drizzling rain, which con-
tinued for nine innings, the Tech de-
cisively and overwhelmingly defeated
Mercer this afternoon by a score of
10 to 4. 1t was the last game ever
to be played at Brisbine Park, known
all over the state as the meeting place
of the Georgia-Auburn football teams,
and the crowd was exceedingly good
for a college game.
Tech won by punching hits at criti-
cal moment and taking advantage of
every misplay of the Baptists.
The game was rather loosely played,
many errors marring it. The feature
of the game, however, was the time
ly and effective bunting of the "black-
smiths" Heisman had taught his men
the art of placing the ball in any
part of the field, and whenever a man
was on third base, a sneaking little
bunt down third base line and TO-
ward first sent the runner home.
Poole of the Tech, struck out eleven
men, Maynard five. Tech secured ten
runs, twelve hits and six errors. Mer-
Ger made four runs, four hits and three
errors. Batteries: Mercer, Maynard

New York that when he came up to
Bennings in the spring he would bring
the winner of the handicap. And he
made good to-day with Shrine. The
long, hard and deep winter that New
