Millionaire Club To Be stopped by
 House
SPEAKER CANNON TO SEE THAT HOUSE GETS ALL ITS PRIV IlEGES-BiLL TO DIE ON
 HIS DESK.

Washington, April 2S.-Speaker Can. non has taken a definite position in the dispute between the House and Sen ate over the rivers and harbors oIii. The plan is that the bill shall lie upon the Speakers table, without even be ing sent into conference, if the Senate does not recede from the forty-odd amendments which it has tackled on to the measure.
 The rive. and harbors bill. as pass ed by the House. appropriated S3,000,- 900 flor the restoration of maintenance of channels, CT of river and harbor i'm provements. and provided that the Secretary of War should allot tbe mon ey and give to no single improvement more than s50,000. The Senate rais ed the maximum to s100, 0,000, and each | Senator who was pa ticularly interest ed in any one, work secured provision for the work in the bill.
 Twenty-Five or thirty surveys foi new work also were authorized, the aggregate of the work, thus initially entered upon, amounting to from S25, 700 900 to s50000, 900.
 One of the amendments is designed
 benefit Missouri, in that it cover. the case of revetments at St. Joseph which are in need of repairs.
 Chairman Burton, of the House Com mitt/e on Rivers and Harbors. prefer that the bill should fail rather thai that these amendments be concurrei In. MT. Burton made his stand yer. emphatic several days ago. Now Speak CT Cannon backs him up.
 The Speaker has on several occa
 sions threatened to do things to tn
 Senate. but somehow the august uppe
 body has always managed to have it own way. It would seem that th
 House is after its full prerogative'
 and very interesting fight may fo
 low. If the rivers and harbors ti fails, it will be a serious matter i

have been admitted without reference 10 the unit oe representation or the ratio; and if the point was ever saised it was brushed aside by the policy of the country.
 Every eRe of these states have been Admitted without reference to this Question, and nearly every one of them with less population and less taxable property than we, they were all ad- snitted upon the theory that they were Able to take care of themselves then, And Chat they would subsequently Erow up to be powerful and prosper bus etates, wAich they have done.
 So say that for all these years for the century and a quarter behind os-it has never been urged against tAe admission of a territory that it dic not contain more people Or as many as the ratio CT unit of representation fin the House of Representatives.
 The Mormon Question.
 It has been stated as an objection fhaf the Mormon people live there and that the practice of pOlygamy is rife To this I mast on this occasion, as have on others, enter an emphatic cenial.
 So far as the practice of polygamy IS concerned, can say that it is mol practiced tAere, because when prac fees of that kint are carried on evl Aence will necessarily exist-just as 1hat when you travel through sand yoa make tracks-but you see no signs Uf it there. For eighteen years l have been in every settlement among then and have yet to see any signs of polyg Amy, and I looked for it with a good deal of interest when ] first wen {bere. But when learned those peo pie. I learned them to be as true Americans as live under the sun. hnow that is fact.

 Platform Pledges.
 say now, in conclusion, that these revolutionary proceedings, harsh and compassionless as they are, are not without political significance and per haps forebodings. The great Republi can party in its last convention in 1900, the party whose commission you of the majority hold and whose pledges you should carry cut, solemnly declar- ed in its platform, in the form of 8 pledge to the territories and a prom ise to the country, that the territories of New Mexico, Arizona, and Okla noma should be admitted into the sisterhood of states. The language of that pledge and promise Is short. con- else, and strong It is in the follow | ing language:
 We favor home rule for and the ear. | ly admission to statehood of the terri tories of New Mexico. Arizona and Oklahoma"
 This pledge was made to the country and declared as principle. and be cause of it appeals were made for the suffrage of the country.
 You of the majority. by your actions in this proceeding, revolutionary as il is, are writing across the face of that platform pledge insincerity, broken pledge, violated promise, and bad faith to the country who believed the great party who made the pledge. We have witnessed with astonishment the manner in which you have done these things-seeing in the beginning that you. the leaders of that side, were noi able to control the rank and file of the majority in this House by persuasion and argument, therefore by degrees you gathered enough force to drive the whole representation of the Republican party, except two brave and noble souls, into line by forced party caucus gay drive" because that is the plair English of it-for this you have done by forced party caucus. And then. ir order to prevent it's disclosure and free discussion of the merits of tho
 measure. you have brought in a gat rule limiting the time of debate to sucf a minimum that complete exposure o your revolutionary policies can not bs made upon this floor. all in order t( carry out this policy of bad faith and broken pledges.
 I know it has been said by some o
 you, ''Darn the platform; it amounts to nothing but to get in on." Tha. maj be so as to you but of these things th' country has a right to be informed 1T order that the country may make LII it's mind on the question as to whether
 or not you have violated your pledgel in one respect and on one great cues
 tion, and overturned and destroyed nations policy, policy over ont
 hundred years old, and you will not

 "You are fined s1O for contempt" the judge answered.
 With a great display of bills Smith paid the fine to the clerk, at the same time muttering: Anyhow, it is $10 more than the couit can show"
 You are fined $50 additional for contempt" the court ordered. and as Smith dic not have this amount he was to raise it before the next day or go to jail.
 "four Honcr," he finally said, "in view of all the circumstances, I am convinced your honor was joking about that $50 fine. and I move that 1t be remitted."
 Smiths assurance was so great that the judge remitted the $50 due.

BERMUDESE ASPHALT LAKE.
Demand That President Surrender II
and Other Property.

Caracas, Venezuela. Aug. 20.-It is
reported that United States Minister
Bowen has handed President Castro
an imperative order that he surrender
the Bermudese asphalt lake and 9TH
er properties of the New York and
Bermudese Co., which were seized by
Venezuelan troops on July 26 last.
Washington. Aug. 2O.-At the re-
quest of the New York and Bermudese
Asphalt Co., the state department has
instructed Minister Bowen to demand
of President Castro that he instruct
the attorney general to dismiss the
receivership proceedings for the as
phalt property, pending final adjudi-
cation of the case.
The grounds on which the demand
is made are that the company has a
number of valuable contracts, which
can not be filled so long as Az ii. Car
ner Is receiver and in possession Of
the workings. There is considerable
doubt whether Venezuela can comply
with the demand, since the receiver
was appointed by the superior court.

days.

st. Paul. Mimi, Aug. 22.-Death to
10 persons and destruction to property
both private and public estimated in
round numbers at $4,000, 200, rode on
a screeching gale which tore down the
valley of the Mississippi at o'clock
Saturday night, at point somewhere
near the confluence of the Minnesota
and the Mississippi rivers near Fort
Smelling. At about that point the fury
of the elements seemingly divided and
with a roar descended on the Twin
Cities and their environs.
st. Paul suffered to the extent Of
about 81 1,000,000; Minneapolis damage
is estimated at $1,500,OOO, while in the
outside districts it is feared that $780,
900 will not cover the damage done
to crops and farm property.
Beginning at a point below Fort
Smelling there is the first known evil
dence that the storm struck with dam
aging effect. 1t came from the south

trees and demolished buildings in its
pathway towards ST. Paul. 1t tore

On the storm rushed to the north

Third street had scarcely whole

many on the opposite side were also
broken.
Tin roofs on several buildings were
rolled in bundles and deposited in the
street. Flying plate glass mixed with
the rain battered everything which
stood before it and horses and car
riages were swept along the streets
which in an incredibly short space Of
time were filled with water.
Wires were torn down and part Of
the city was in darkness. The high

In Minneapolis the wind blew at the
rate of 80 miles an hour. Three storms

and broke over that city. Hundreds
Of buildings were badly damaged, all
the great wire systems were paralyzed
and thousands of beautiful shade trees
uprooted. The street car service was
tied up until noon Sunday, trolley
wires being down in all parts of the
city as the result of falling trees.

London, Aug. %. - The London
morning newspapers Monday show a
disposition to reserve their opinion
on the Shanghai incidents. The Stand
ard, in an editorial however, says:
The spirited and energetic action
OF the American authorities must
move our admiration, not unmixed
with envy. The British public would
be glad to know where our powerful
China squadron is at this moment and
what 1t is doing and why the lead in
defending Chinese neutrality should
be surrendered tamely to the Ameri
cans. The foreign Office might well
take example from the Washington
stale lenartment.
