Wednesday.

Washington, March 1. - For three
hours lacking a few minutes yester-
day MI. Foraker held the attention OF
the senate while he read a carefully
prepared speech on the railroad rate
question. His speech was a protest
against any general legislation on the
theory that the existing Elkins law
could be so extended as to make it
answer all the requirements. He did
not fail, however, to point out what he
considered the defects OF the Hep
burn-Dolliver bill, and he made the
declaration more than once that it
would fail to remedy the evils COM
planned of.
Mr.. Foraker's speech was followed
by a further discussion of the railroad
land grant in Indian Territory with
the result that Mr.. Aldrich's resolu-
ton extending the tribal government
Of the Indians was carried after it was
so modified as to carry that govern
ment over until March 4, 1907.
The details of the provisions of the
army appropriation bill occupied the
house of representatives throughout
the day. Several pages OF the meas
ure yet remain to be considered.
