He was now to the south OF the
eastern point of Sand island. He had
discovered the dark outline OF the boats
OF his friends lying in the shadow Of
the island shore. To the south he saw
another line OF dark shadows which he
knew was the fotilla OF reinforce
ments. He could not account for this
except an unforeseen delay which often
attends the organization OF forces.
One thing he did know, and that
Was that he would never take the
soldiers where they could interfere
with his friends so long as he could
avoid it.
Suddenly a fishing boat was discov-
cred in front Of the vessel. The &C.

an oar frantically overhead TO attract
the pilot. He signalled the engi-
neer to reverse the lever and the wheel
began TO pull back against the current
which was taking the boat rapidly to-
ward the ocean.
The officers down sairs rushed upon
deck to ascertain the cause OF the boat
coming to halt. They soon discov-

DEMOCRATS PRAISE THE PRESIDENT

Senator Clarke, the new Democratic

speech in the nate the other day. He
spoke two hours. and announced his
Endorsement of every position taken

He even said that, in view of the pro
vocation given by Colombia, the presi-

cause of Panama. He declared tina
there was more popular support of tn
course of the presidents policy among
Democrats than among Republicans,
and said that the Democratic votes
necessary to ratify the treaty were as
sured.
He said that the civil war now go
ing on in Colombia was but a reac
ton of the revolution which had bee.
in progress for the last three yeas
and in support of this statement h

men were for the canal, he said, sim
ply because they saw a prospect OF
getting $40. 000, 900 out of it, and not
because they cared anything about the
United States or ever about the well
fare Of their country.
Senator Clarke also found in tn,
treaty of 1886 justification for the at
titude of the United States, and con.
tended that Colombia did not have un

and If it were necessary to show that
the president was unaware Of the state
Of affairs in order to establish his In

Senator Clarke announced his dis
agreement with the senators h con-
tended tha the president should have
turned to the Nicaragua route aftef

fcation of the canal treaty. His p in
cipal reason. for this was announced to
be his belief that we should lave only
a sea level canal, which, he said, was
possible in the Panama route, and not
possible on the Nicarauguan route. He
did not believe that any but a sea level

Slowly they are coming out of their

MILEAGE ANUS CUT OFF.
Some congressman Wanted Travel
Pay Anyway.

Washington.-The house voted
unanimously to strike from the urgent
deficiency bill the paragraph for the
second payment of mneage to the SEN
ators and representatives OF this con-
gress and then passed the urgent 4e-
AGENCY appropriation bill. This ac-
ton was the cnmax to an exciting
discussion Oh the mlIeage problem be-
gun recently, hrst on the point OF or
der raised against the provision by
Mr.. Maddox of Georgia, and then on
a motion to strike out made by Mr..
Underwood of Alabama.
Argument on the point Of order that
the item was not authorized by law
turned on .Ae question whether this
was the second session Of congress or
merely continuation Of the session
convened November on the call of
the president. 4uessrs. Fuller of Hin
OILS and Mr.. cooper of Wisconsin, con-
tended that there had been two ses-
sions, while Mr.. Parker Of New Jer-
sey insisted that because new sane
tion had been given for meeting on
December 7, Inc status Of the session,
which he held to be continuous, was
not altered. Mr.. Littletield supple
mented his argument by reafflrmIng
that there had been no interregnum
between the two sessions.
Mr. Tawney of Minnesota, as chair
man Of the committee of the whole, in
a carefully prepared opinion overrul-
ed the point of order against the ap-
preparation, saying the parliamentary
question as to whether existing law
authorized the payment Of mileage
was the point to be decided by him
and the question as to whether the
mileage should be received was for
the committee to decide.
An amendment by MIR. Grosnevor
providing for the return Of the mile
age to the treasury was agreed to
Mr.. Underwood motion to strike out
the provision tor mileage then was
adopted w,.nout ulssenting vote. The
bill passed the house just as it came
from the committee of the whole.
