Washington, Feb. 14.-Incident to
the passage of the fortifications ap"
propriation bill which was accom-
plished by the house today, lively de-
hate was kept up throughout, investi-
eating the difference between the re-
publican and democratic policy with
reference to the Philippines and also
the difference between army and navy
officers as to the place where a naval
station and fortihcations shall be es-
tablished in the archipelago. The de-
hate availed nothing so far as the leg
islation was concerned, as the two
amendments on the Philippine propo-
sion-frst not to appropriate any

gave it as his opinion that the heavy

Chicago Council Passes
Ordinance Over Veto.
HIGH LICENSE LOSES
BY A NARROW MARGIN
Believed That Closing Of Small Dives
Would End Reign Of Terror
in Windy City,

Chicago, Feb. 14-The city council
at a special meeting today took action
on three important propositions af-
fecting the city. An order fixing tne
price to be paid for gas by consumers
at S5 cents, instead of 80 cents and 81
as heretofore. was passed over the
veto OF Mayor Dunn by vote OF 51
to 10. An ordinance placing the sa-
loon license at $500 instead OF $500,
the present figure, was adopted by
vote of35 to 80, but Mayor Dunno ruled
that the measure had failed of passage
because it did not received S6 votes.
the constitutional majority. The
81 900 ordinance was then re-intro
duced but it was referred to the IL
cense committee to be presented again
at the next meeting of the council on
February 26
It was also ordered that the ques-
ton Of voting SIS, 100000 for the pur-
! chase of the street railways for the
! city be submitted to the voters of the
city at the next election.
The importance of the pending
| measures and the excitement which
has attended their agitation drew an
enormous crowd to the city hall late
! in the day.
The mayor based his veto of the gas
ordinance on the declaration that he
considered SIS cents too high a price
and IS cents a proper figure. He also
asked that the gas companies be conf
PEELED to furnish free of cost to the
city such gas as II needs for street
lighting purposes. The mayor also
asked that time be taken by rfse coun-
ell to investigate the operation of the
gas companies to determine whether
they cannot furnish gas at 10 cents
and still make a reasonable profit.
The question of saloon licenses was
productive of the greatest amount of
feeling, The numerous crimes which
have been perpetrated against women
of the city of late have aroused much
feeling and it was believed by many
people that the raising of saloon IL
censes from $500 to $1,000 would wipe
out many small saloons In the disrep-
utable sections of the city which are
breeding places for crime. The saloon

ed by vote Of 35 to 80. The result

CONGER SAYS SHOW
OF FORCE is URGENT

Los Angeles, Feb 14.-That a for
midable show Of force on the part OF
the United States will effeetually pro
vent any repetition of the terrible
massacres of foreigners i'm the former
Boxer uprising in China, is the view
of Edwin H. Conger for many years
United states minister to China, and
who is an authority on conditions IN
the empire Mr.. Conger is at present
living in Pasadena.
Mr.. Conger emphasizes the urgent
need of immediate and determined
action on the part of the United
States. Unless this action Is taken
and a powerful fleet of warships
makes a demonstration off the Chi
nese coast, Mr.. Conger believes thai
thousands of American lives VIII Dc
endangered. A great anti-foreign up
rising is imminent. The minister
thinks. however, that the force of tho
rebellion will be directed chiefly
against the relgning Manchu dy'
nasty. "The most violent disturb
ances," said Mr.. Conger, will be II
the southern provinces and all for
eign interests will be in peril Th'
United States should warn Chlni
against a repetition Of the terrible
riots of a few years ago and impres
upon the imperial government IN
fact that such troubles will not be tol
Grated again.
Americans within the zone of re
bellion are liable to be hurt befor
they can get out and that Is why tn
United States should let China kno'
that it will not tolerate for an instan
ANYTHING inimical to the interests o
its cltiZens."

sistible force to rebellion against the

Then will the existence of the empire
