SAID, "THAT GANG IN NEW YORK"
Missouri Member Wanted Mississippi Valley Producers to Have a Share of Contracts For
 Great Isthmns Work.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-The Pana- ma canal emergency appropriation bill was taken up by the house immediately after the reading of the journal.
 Mir. Williams Oem., Miss.) moved to reduce the amount carried in the bill from $16500,000 to $6,S5S,333. This sum, he said, would be sufficient to meet all liabilities incurred and esti- mated to Jan. l, 1906, of the commits sion. The additional S10,000,0O0, he said, was intended for the first six months of 1906, and the appropriation of sum of that magnitude and a mat ter of this importance should not be disposed of without further investiga- tion by committee.
 MT. Prince (Rep., Ill.) moved to make the appropriation $11 100000.

 MT. Wanger (Rep., Pa.) answered that no transportation line via New Orleans had offered to make as cheap rates as could be secured via New York.
 MT. Clark-Well, you're not the man want
 
 By vote of 136 to 121 the committee adopted the $11,000000 amendment. a number of Republicans joining the Democrats against 1t.

DEMOCRATS VOTE WITH PosTLEs

Thomas L. Postles, the colored Repub-
lican member Of Wilmington City Coun-
Gil from the Sixth ward, was in session
for sometime Thursday night. Under his
able leadership the six Democratic mem
bers fell into line and proceeded to elect
five Union Republicans to Office. Postles
was clearly the master Of the situation,
and from the manner in which the DEM
ocrats followed his leadership all fear Of
the colored man in politics has departed
from the Democratic mind. 1t had been
expected that the Democrats would get
two offices and they did, but not by cleo
ton. They were allowed to hold on to
clerk of council, which position is filled
by John J. Monaghan, and City Auditors
clerk, held by Daniel F. Connell, simply
because Postles voted blank and there
was no election. These men will there
fore hold over until successors are elected.
1t is supposed they will continue to hold
their places, but Postles can remove them
at anytime lie sees fit to join with the
other Republicans in council and vote for
caucus nominees.
The men chosen were George w. An
derson, colored, bailiff Of council Daniel
F. Stewart. coal oil inspector; Joseph E.
Postles, colored, treasurer's clerk Benja-
min 1. Spesse, city auditor; Joseph G..
Moore, clerk of the market. The Demo-
Gratis voted solidly for the colored candi-
dates nominated by Postles.
