Washington, Feb 23.--Durins the consideration of the river and harDor bill yesterday afternoon. Chairman Burton, of the river and harbor com mittee, offered ap amendment to the section relating to the dumping of re- fuse. This amendment contains the ideas suggested by Attorney General King of Connecticut, when he was lh Washington in the interest of the oys- ter growers of the state. 1t is not Ill the exact words of the amendment pre- pared by Mir King, but the committee decided that it would answer the pul' pose and would amply protect the Long Island Sound oyster beds.
 By this amendment, the first part or section 13 is stricken our. and the en- tire section reads as follows: "Thc secretary of war is hereby authorized and empowered to prescribe reGula- tions to govern the transportation and dumping into any navigable water, or waters adjacent thereto, of dredgings, earth, garbage, and other refuse mater ials of every kind or description, whenever in his judgment such regu' latiOns are required in the interest o1 navigation. Such regulations shall be posted in conspicuous and appropriate places for the information of the pub lie: and every person Or corporal tion whieh shall violate the said regula tions. or any of them. shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and shall bt subject to the penalties prescribed ir section sixteen of the river and harbol act of March 3. 1899. for violation Oi the provisions of section 13 of said act: Provided, that any regulations made in pursuance hereof may be en forced as provided in section 17 of tho aforesaid act of March 2. 1S90. tht provisions whereof are hereby mad' applicable to the said regulations"
 Then follows the amendment. al
 follows: Provided further that thi
 section shall not apply in waters with in the iurisdictional boundaries of an! state, which are now or may be here after used for the cultivation of ovs ters under the laws of such states except in navigable channels. whicl
 have been or may hereafter be i'm proved bv the United States govern
 ment designated as navigable chan
 nels by competent authority: and il
 making such improvement of char
 nels. the material dredged shall not b
 deposited upon any ground in use i
 accordance with the laws of sue
 states for the cultivation of oyster:
 except fin compliance with said law!
 provided. however. that such state ha
 statutes in force regulating. unde
 suitable penalties. the depositing (
 material in the waters of such state.
 Provided further. that any exDens necessary in executing this sectio may be paid from funds available ft . the improvement of the harbor ( waterway. for which regulations ma
 have been prescribed. and in case T such funds are available the said Q. pense may he paid from appropri tions made by congress for examin tions. surveys and contingencies of ri CTS and harbOrs."
 The amendment was incOrpOrat, 7. in the hill as were all the changes r

 in D.adl~ ok With Employers.

In place of the bi-weekly pay day now Ill effect the men also are demanding that they receive their wages every seven days.
 All the differences have been sub mitted. according to the agreements. to arbitration committees from the unions and the building contractors council. In case of failure to reach a settlement an umpire will be chosen.
