Protests Against Barnes.

Washington, May 1.-The nomination
of B. F. Barnes, assistant secretary to
President Roosevelt, to be postmaster
at Washington was before the Senate in
executive session today. No action was
taken. Senator Culbertson stated that
a general protest had been fled by citi-
zens against the confirmation of Mr..
Barnes. and the postoffice committee
had failed to give the protests the con
sideration of an investigation. The
charges relate to the action of Mr..
Barnes in having Mrs. Minor Morris
elected from the White House, and that
the office should be given to a citizen.

Statehood Compromise.

Washington, May 5.-All of the minor
amendments to the statehood bill are
either disposed of or in shape to be
made the foundation of argument at
moment s notice.
At today's session of the conferees on
that measure the climax of the situa-
ton was reached for the first time.
The question of the admission of Ari-
iona and New Mexico as one state was
discussed at length.
No proposition for a compromise was
offered, and the meeting adjourned un-
til Tuesday.
In general way it is known that the
compromise will be the Foraker amend
ment, allowing the people of the two
territories to vote upon the question of
being Joined in statehood.
Whether this vote is to be coupled
with the election for state officers or is
to be held prior to such elections is
one of the questions yet to be decided.

Washington, May 5.-Inquiry into the
conditions at st. Elizabeth 8 asylum
for the insane was begun today by the
special committee of the house of rep
resentatives appointed by Speaker Can

Setterfeld, one of the employees in the
laundry, teased the patients and then
choked them for becoming angry and
excited. None of the patients, accord
ing to the testimony, was severely hurt.

another day in consideration of the
naval appropriation bill, the speeches
in large measure being in support of the
bill and the naval program therein out
lined. Burton, of Ohio, delivered a
scholarly address against what seemed
the needless enlargement of the navy,
contending that the American nation
could well afford to serve notice upon
the other nations that it stood for in
ternational arbitration and the peace of
the world.
Butler of Pennsylvania, and Calder of
New York, supported the bill, both
agreeing that the measure had less to
criticize in it than any bill reported
from the naval affairs committee Of the
house in years.

extended discussion of the railroad rate
bill by Daniel, an explanation of the
status of the appropriation for the re

among several Senators as to the pro-
priety of adopting without referring to
a committee a resolution rendering the
thanks of Congress to General Horace
Porter for his services in recovering the
body of John Paul Jones from its long
lost resting place in Paris. In the last
mentioned proceedings Aldrich opposed
action by the Senate in advance of com

having the measure referred to the COM

Washington, May AIN accordance
with the agreement of last Monday,
the senate today entered upon the con-

bill under the 15-minute rule, but made
little progress. The greater part of the
day was devoted to Lodges provision
bringing pipe lines within the terms
of the bill, and it was ultimately unani-
mously agreed to, after being so amend
ed as to make it exclude gas and water
lines from its operation, thus practi-
cally combining it to oil lines. There
were two roll-calls, but neither was of
Importance, as on the one accepting the
amendment there was no division what
ever, while the action taken on the
other, on the question of combining the
provision to oil lines, was practically
nullifed by the subsequent elimination
of gas and water from the amendment.
