The prospects for the Presidential rate

10 be poorer than at any time since the
opening of the session.
4 combination of circumstances has
served to play into the hands Of the
opposition. The most obvious trouble
IL that the majority of Republicans on
the Senate Committee are opposed TO
legislation. and that they are carrying
on campaign OF mastery inactivity
that has been giving great concern TO
those who want accomplishment. Thus
Yesterday afternoon the committee met
and the only thing accomplished was
the agreement on minor amendment
10 the Dolltver bill and the unmasking
or determined opposition and a dispo-
Eitlon 10 take the measure 10 pieces and
weaken it wherever possible.
The DolliveT-H Hepburn measure stands
in the uncomfortable position of having
determined Republican opposition, and
at the same time not satisfying the
Democrats of either House. who Insist
that it does not go far enough.
Objections to Bill.
When the bill was first prepared it
was in the belief that the four Demo
Gratis on the Senate Committee. togeth-
er with Senators CuIom, Dolliver. and
Clapp, would be able IL unite in sup
porting it. and would bring it out Of
the committee with a majority report
This anticipation seemed for a long
time TO be well warranted. But in the
draft of the bill a section was omitted
in order TO make it possible 10 keep the
three Republicans in line for it. This
was the section which, in the Inter
state Commerce Commission Dill was
identified as section ia, ana provided
that the commission should be empow-
cred 10 correct discrimination as he
tween commodities or communities.
Ihis section was favored. IL is said. BY
most OF the COnferees who discussed
the matter. including the President. But
Senator Clapp of Minnesota objected to
it. Without his vote tne bill could not
be brought out as a majority report
OF the committee, and out of Difference
10 his views, and in order 70 keep him
on the side of the bill, the provision
was dropped out.

Just as there were efforts to secure
a cooperation of Republicans and Dem

was for a time talk that the House

might be induced 20 unite on the Hen

glimmering, for the Democrats of the

WANTED A BATTLESHIP.
The fact that the Anegawa is not a
battleship. but a converted transport
and hospital ship, is in a degree dis
appointing to some of the local Japa-
nese. This IS somewhat atoned for by
the fact that the two largest guns
she carries were at one time in use on
the battleship Mikasa Togo's famous
flagship. These guns We're on the Mi
kasa when she was sunk as the re-
suit of an accidental explosion short
ly after the war.
The Anegawa is a sister ship to the
Russian cruiser Lena, and prior to the
outbreak of hostilities and her inclu-
sion among the vessels of the Russian
volunteer fleet, she had been used by
the Russian government as a supply
and convict ship, running between
Odessa and Vladivostok.
SPORTS SATURDAY AND MONDAY.
At a meeting of the committee ar
ranging for the reception to be given
the officers and crew of the visiting
ship in the Boys Field, held last night,
it was decided to hold the affair on
Saturday and Monday next, those days
being convenient for the visitors and
for those who have the affair in hand.
The program arranged will be the
same as announced in the Advertiser
yesterday, although it has been
thought advisable to limit the fire.

fire in a big firework demonstration.
Captain Hanabusa attended the COM
mittee meeting last night, taking adj
vantage of the occasion to express his
pleasure at the reception rendered his
men and ship yesterday by the people
and at the many courtesies extended
by the Territorial and Naval officials.
