Lake Mohonk, N. ", Oct. 21.-About
$50 delegates were present today when
the twenty-secopd annual Indian con-
ference was called to order. Charles
Bonaparte, q member of the board OF
Indian commissioners, was chosen per-
manent chairman. and in his address

erations Of present laws, and said:
IAN investigation which / conducted
last winter as a member of a special

of lands belonging to the five civilized
tribes of Indian Territory has left me

to condemn and comparatively few
venal faults to charge most against
these"
General e. Whittlesey Of the board OF
Indian commissioners rave a resume or
the years work among Indians.
Commissioners Jones of the ndian
bureau spoke of the good results OF
the abolition of the free ration system
and of other reforms instituted in the
Indian service Inc blanket, feathers
and long hair he said, are fast disap-
pearing, but great evils still e ist, the
worst of these being the annual pay
ment of large sums OF money TO the
Indians by the government, inducing
idlcfess, extravaganza and other vices.
These practices should be stopped as
soon as possible.

3 HOUSE IN RIOT.
Speaker Is Unable to Control the
Members.

Havana, Oct. 19.-The house OF rep
resentatives has been the scene OF dis
order ever since the opening session on
March 4. The liberals have pursued
the usual tactics OF obstruction. being
present in order to draw pay, but with
drawing with the object of breaking a
quorum before any business could be
transacted. The m~oderates, however.
had today what they construe TO be a
quorum, namely a majority OF the rep
resentatives- elect. Realizing this tbs
liberals returned to the chamber and
tried obstruction tactics with the re-
suit hat in a few minutes all the
members of the house were on their
feet shouting and g~esticulating menac-
ingly. The speaker having lost control
of the house, ordered that all the spec
tators be excluded. The spectators
violently protested. but finally slowly
withdrew.
Nothing was accomplished at today's
sitting beyond the reading OF a mes
sage from President Palma with refer
ence to appropriations.
The senate was unable to muster a
quorum today.

since the armies of the two belligerentsI
closed in combat.
Even the Japanese, to whom the great
victory Is Of paramount Importance,
seem to be shocked by the slaughter OF
| their enemies. The Japanese people are
receiving the news from n field OF
battle calmly and there can be heard
no shouts In the streets proclaiminx
the victory Of their nation. Few hags
are displayed. Probably later on there
will be a procession With h conse-
quent jolliication, but there are heard
many expressions Of opinion that no
demonstration OF any kind should &c
held.
A prominent Japanese said to the AS
ISOLATED Press correspondent.
I'VE have won q sweeping ana DE-
cisive victory which may prove to De
the salvation of our country's exist
ence, but we regret both our ewn losses
and the terrible slaughter which Y
forces have inflicted upon the enemy.
We regret still more the necessity
which forced us to engage In this war. =
A member OF the diplomatic corps In
an interview with the correspondent or
the Associated Press said:
II believe the world win recoil from
the sickening slaughter Of this battle.
Every interest OF humanity demands
the adjustment OF the differences be-
tween the two nations and h procia-
nation OF peace. The situation between
the two beIligerents is q delicate one,
but what a splendid triumph for diplo-
macy II would be II peace could be ar
ranged. IT seems to me that the Ques-
ton OF honor Is no longer involved.
II Russia feels that such q question ~
involved, surely the heroic and success
full defense or Port Arthur and the
vaior shown by Russian soldiers on h
fields OF Manchuria should forever de-
termine the quality of Russian cour
age. Russians should remember that
the distance dividing her strength and
the limitations of her railway are HIS

are generally known. They are appre-
cinted By everybody and are not looked
upon as faults"
