Washington, June 1.-THE following

'"Fhe secretary of war is in receipt

ted to the Russian admiral, and at the

he would be required to put to sea

take them to the nearest port. That
up to this time only enough coal and
sufficient food supplies for use in har.
Dor to last from day to day had been
given, as they arrived in Manila with
practically no coal or provisions. Gov
ernor Wright submitted the question
as to whether they were entitled to

them to the nearest port. Governor
Wright was advised that the president
directed that the twenty-four hours
limit must be strictly enforced; that
necessary supplies and coal must be
taken on within that time, these in.
structions being consistent with those
of June 5, stating that, as the Rus

from damages due to battle, that the
American policy was to restrict all

should NOT be given for repair of dam

Control Of Insura nee

Washington, Dec. 15.-The House
today devoted four and three quarter
hours to lively debate on the posi-
bilities of controlling insurance COM
panies.
Two set speeches were the features.
One by Mr.. Shereley of Kentucky bore
on the doctrine of States rights, and
the other, by Mr.. Cochran, of New
York, related to the ctions of the off,
GERS who manage the big life insurance
companies of his State. Mr.. Cochran
suggested that Congress, through its
taxing power should confine all insur-
ance companies to the state in which
they are organized.
! Mr.. Mann, of Illinois, outlined pro-
posed means of control he will latter
present in the form Of bill, leaving it
to the insurance companies to volun-
tarily submit to Federal examination
and approval. Mr.. Williams, the min
ority leader, concluded the debate,
holding that control was possible, but
not through the taxing power.
Miss Mary Anderson who has been
on visit to friends in Washington has
