SEEDS DISrURB SENATOR'S.
Discuss Their Free Distribution by
Agricultural Department.

Washington. Feb. 2.-The senate spent
much of to-day discussing the distribu-
tion lof ordinary farm and garden seeds
by the agricultural department, the
agricultural appropriation bill being
under consideration. The sum of $240.-
900 is appropriated for seeds. An attack
on the seed distribution custom was
made by Mr.. Lodge. He and those who
stood with him contended that the
seeds We're OF the common varieties to
be bought of dealers everywhere and
urged that only rare varieties should be
supplied free. Their opponents con-
tended that much good was accom-
plished by the work of the department.
Mr.. Pettus, the venerable Alabama
senator, stood with the latter class and
appealed to his fellow youthful SEN
ators not to forget the days when they
enjoyed the violets that grew in the
flower box on the front porch. The
bill was not completed.

Arraigned i'm New York Yesterday and
Remanded Until Saturday When
Rcnuisition Papers Are Expected
from Chicago--Accused Of Crimes, He
says, That Occurred before He Came
to This Country.

New York, Feb. 2.--Johann Hoch was
arraigned in Jefferson Market court to-
day and remanded until Saturday,
when requisition papers are expected
to arrive from Chicago.
This talk about my having twenty
or thirty wives and numbering feSe OF
them is all nonsense" he said while
being taken back to police headquar-
ters. Just let them go on and pile it
onN me as much as they please. I'll
make some of them very sorry when
i get back to Chicago. 1t is a case of
mistaken identity. There are more
Hochs in the west than one
According to the police, Hoch said
he would plead guilty to bigamy upon
his return to Chicago. He said he had
married twice, the police allege, but
that when he took a second wife he
believed his former wife had secured a
divorce from him.
Concerning the charge of murder,
Hoch said: They are accusing me of
crimes that are said to have occurred
in this country long before Il came here,
ten years ago will prove by docu-
mentary evidence that was in Ger
many prior to the time these crimes
were committed"
John Graf, of Gensingen, Bingen-on-
the Rhine, where Hoch was reared,
was caller at police headquarters to-
day. He told the detectives that he
was certain he had known Hoch in
Gensingen, where he passed as Jacob
Schmidt until he left there, about ten
years ago, and came TO this country as
5aa diamond agent, having lost d for
tune. ya
4 Graf declares that If Hoch is the
same as Jacob Schmidt, he was mar
Hried in Germany.

ments until the agitated Mr.. Wynne

Great applause greeted the receipt by
the Presbyterian general assembly at
Winona Lake. Ind. last night a mes
sage from President Roosevelt, express
ing the hope that the day would come,
in the near future when all branches
Of the Presbyterian Church would be

1t is believed that this expression from

the project Of erecting in Washington ii
great national cathedral, in which his
denomination can hold national conven-
tions, and from which staff of minis
ters can carry on a national work
Justice Harlan has warm supporter
in his work in Commissioner Macfar-
land. who has done much to help the
project
No action on Justice Harlan's plan
viii be taken by the local Presbytery
until II is officially brought before the
board. In this connection, Rev. b. F.
Bittinger, clerk of the Washington city
pTesbytery, said this morning:
1.-THE matter has never been brought
to the attention of the presbytery OF
Washington city, and therefore / am not
sufficiently wei informed TO say what
may be the action OF the presbytery at
its meeting June ;. Whether the
matter VIII come up for consolidation
at that meeting or whether the pres
bytery viii wait for the communication
from the commissioners appointed by
the general assembly | cannot say.
LAS the matter stands there is Il differ
ence of opinion entertained by the mem
bers of the pTeSoytery of Washington
city, both as to the wisdom of the plan
and its pFacficabIity. Some entertain
the project favorably while others are
in doubt as to the expediency. For my
self I VIII wait tn. -eturn of our com
missIoncrs from the general assembly,
and after hearing them will form my
judgment"
