very large majority of the congregation
was opposed to the resignation being ac-
cepted, and a resolution being offered,
which spoke of the splendid record of Mr..
Hunt in the church a pastor, a preacher
and man. expressed absolute confidence
in him and stated that the congregation
unwilling to join with him in a re-
quest to dissolve the pastorate and in
structing any commissioners to oppose such
move before the preSbytery was unani-
mously adopted. Mr.. Hunt after thanking
the congregation for this expression of con-
hdence and esteem, reiterated his absolute
determination to Insist on the presbytery
relieving him of this charge and again re-
quested the congregation to join with him
in going to the presbytery.

ton providing that in view of the attitude
or the pastor, the congregation reluctantly
acceded to the request was adopted.
-Four months extra salary was voted the
retiring pastor. Mr. Hunt, II is under
stood, will retire September l.

DESPITE the fact that but eight days

Despite the fact that but eight days
intervene till congress adjourns,
some hope of action is still entertain
ed by friends of the bill. Senator
Long, of Kansas, said today that
bare chance existed in his opinion, OF
the passage of the bill, and ex-Dele-
gate Flynn, of Oklahoma, who has
been watching every move made, de-
clared his belief tonight that the ul-
innate outcome of the situation
would be the passage of a bill pro-
viding for two states under the pro-
visions of the Foraker amendment.
Without a dollar being added or
subtracted, the river and harbor ap-
preparation bill passed the house to-
day after the session had run well
into the evening. The total amount
carried by the bill Is $17,234,G57.
Throughout the day the progress of
the bill was impeded by the offering
of amendments. but only those pre-
scented by the committee were adopt
ed, although, on a point of order, the
house struck out the committee pro-
vision giving the supervisor of har-
bors at New York authority to make
regulations regarding the towing OF
vessels. The most important COM
mittee amendment agreed to was one
giving the supervisor of harbors at
New York increased police power
and providing for the protection OF
oyster beds against deposits from
dredgings.
Mr.. Carmack, a member of the COM
mittee on interstate commerce, pre-
scented a petition for railroad rate leg
islation. Mr.. Berry Immediately asked
as to the prospect for railroad rate
legislation. Mr.. Carmack gave place
to Mr.. Elkins, chairman of the COM
mittee, to reply. Mr.. Elkins said:
The bill passed by the house reach
ed the senate about ten days ago. Dur
ing that time the senate had had al
most continuous session, but only one
friend of the railroads has been heard.
The committee has given the best at
tention possible to the bill, but there
has been no time to consider the
amendments and there are several to
be important. No decision as to an
effort to pass the bill this session has
been reached, but with limited time
at their disposal it would seem that
there is very little prospect Of that re-
suit before adjournment, with only
ten days of the session left, and with
much other imperative business to
be performed.

Honesty That Irritated.

Once, when l had occasion to
withdraw $25 from my bank, re-
marked the conscientious man,
something happened which almost
tempted me to think that honesty
may at times be not so very COM
mendable. BY curious mistake,
considering the small amount of
money, the cashier handed out six
five-dollar gold pieces. Without
thinking what it meant to him
showed one of the coins back, saying:
You have given me too much The
look that man gave me l have never
forgotten, although even at this
day cannot describe it. But
can assure you it was not grateful

Oklahoma Statehood Bill Is Again Oc-
cupylng Senate.
FEAR DEBATE WOULD Be FATAL.
There Seems to Be No Disposition on
the Part of the Friends Of the Pro-
vision For Two States to be Made
Of Four Territories to Accept a
Compromise.

Washington, Feb. 81. - Efforts to
harmonic the differences over the
statehood bill continued fruitlessly in
the senate today. There seemed to
be no disposition on the part of the
friends of the provision for two states
to be made of the four territories to
accept a compromise permitting Okla
hoNa and Indian Territory to come in
at the present session, and compelling
the other territories to wait. When
this was proposed today 1t was insist
ed that the house would not agree to
any such arrangement. A disposition
to debate at any length the adoption
Of such a report would be fatal to the
passage of the statehood measure at
this session.
The reading of the naval bill had
been completed, when ten minutes be-
fore IL o'clock Mr.. Beveridge was
recognized to renew his motion for
the appointment of conferees on the
joint statehood bill.
Washington, Feb. 27.-The time of
the senate today was divided between
the Swayne impeachment trial and
the motion of Senator Beveridge to
appoint conferees on the joint state
hood bill. In the Swayne case Messrs.
Perkins, Slayton and Powers made ar
guments in behalf of the prosecution
and Mr. Higgins responded in Judge
Swaynes behalf, leaving Mr.. Thurs
ton still to speak for Judge Swayne
and Messrs. Dearmond and Palmer
for the house. The trial will be re-
.sumed tomorrow.
The examination of the senators
who are managing the impeachment
trial of Judge Swayne that an agree
ment will be made tomorrow to take
a vote on Monday.
Mr.. Morgan antagonized the motion
to appoint conferees on the statehood
bill, and held the floor in opposition
when the senate adjourned.
In the house of representatives to-
day the fight that has been waged for
many years against the appropriation
of $130,600 for rental of the old New
York custom house resulted in a vic
tory, Mr.. Hemenway (ndiana), chair
man of the committee on appropria'
tons, being unable to muster suffi-
cent strength to retain the provision
in the bill. The opposition was led by
Mr.. Sulzer New York;, supported by
Mr.. Williams (Miss.), the minorially
leader, both of whom denounced the
expenditure as a public scandal and
in the interest of the Standard Oil
Company, which it was alleged was
behind the National City bank, the
purchaser of the building from the
government. The action in striking
out the provision was on strictly
party vote.
Washington, Feb. 25.-The condi-
ton of the statehood bill remained
unchanged today. No effort was
made to discuss it. and it was not
sent to conference. Senator Bever-
idge is apparently waiting for over,
lures of some kind from the opposi-
ton, and is resting complacently on
the plea that, if no statehood legisla-
ton is enacted, the responsibility for
failure rests with Senator Teller and
the Democrats.
