FORECAST OF THE
EVENTS OF WEEK
SENATE TO STRUGGLE WITH THE
BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR.
THE BLACKBURN AMENDMENT
Will Be the Opening - Automobile
Races in Florida = Trial OF
Harry Thaw to Begin
Wednesday.

The Blackburn amendment to the
Foraker resolution will hold the
principal place on the senatorial pro
gram for the present week. The sub
ject will come up Monday if not inter
fered with by the salary increase
amendment to the legislative appro
priation bill and will continue to re
ceive attention for several days, un
less some general agreement for the
adjustment of the matter can be ar
rived at.
The situation is still very chaotic
and no senator will undertake to say
just when vote may be taken OF
what the result will be when taken.
Probably the first business of the
senate this week will be concurrence
in the action of the house in voting an
increase of the salaries of senators
and representatives and also of the
vice president, the speaker and mem
bers of the cabinet. There is little
opposition to the amendment.
Tuesday will be partly devoted by
the senate to listening to a speech
by Senator Sutherland in opposition to
the resolution for the expulsion of his
colleague, Senator Smoot; Wednesday
to a speech by Senator Beveridge in
support of his child labor bill. and
later in the week, Senator Carter will
probably call up his resolution regard
ing the public lands for an explanation
of his views on that subject Sena.
tor Raynor is also slated for a set
speech on the usurpation of power by
the executive department of the gov
eminent, and on Saturday the senate
will listen to eulogies upon the charac-
ter of the late Senator German of
Maryland.
The house will give the major por-
ton of its time this week to the con-
sideration of appropriation bills.
1t is hoped by the friends of the
immigration bill that a measure may
be agreed on in conference on Mon.
day and if so there will probably be
an effort in both houses to have the
report accepted during the week.
The automobile races will be held
on the Ormand Daytona beach in Flor
ida during the week. There will be
% contests besides record trials.
Congregational churches of 46 states
will be represented at a meeting of
the board of directors, secretaries and
superintendent of the congregational
home missionary society to be held
in Bronxville, N. Y, beginning
Wednesday and continuing until Sun
day.
The trial of Harry X. Thaw for the
killing of Stanford White is expected
to begin Wednesday or Thursday.
The parliamentary campaign with
its consequent discussion of internal
and colonial questions, which has oc-
cupied the attention of the German
public since the dissolution last De-
cember of the reichstag, will come to
a close January 25 when the members
Of the new legislative body will be
elected.

Many Calls, But Little Doing.

The police department was worked
over time Saturday night in the dis,
agreeable storm, but nothing came OF
their work. A number of complaints
reached the office of the chief, but by
the time an officer could make the
spot the offenders would be else
where. A sum total of two cases of
intoxication was the result of the
Saturday and Sunday business.

Brownsville Affair.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 21.- The
republican senators today reached an
agreement in the Brownsville affair,
and decided to adopt resolution au-

to be satisfactory to Senator Lodge
and President Roosevelt.

d correspondent OF the Westminster
Gazette from Uganda The water is
slightly salt and is greatly appreciated
by the hippos, who come here in large
parties from Lake Ruisamba to battle.
The lake is shallsw for few yards
only and then deepens rapidly, so the
hippos, who do not like deep water,
never go very far from the shore.
On still day 1t is an amusing pas
time to sit by the lake and watch the
great brutes enjoying themselves.
For moment nothing Is to be seen,
then suddenly score or more Of huge
heads burst through the water with
loud snorts and squirting jets of water
through their nostrils; they stare
around with their ugly little piglike
eyes, yawn prodigiously, showing a
fearful array of tusks and cavernous
throat, Their sink with satisfied CUR

and drive him away with roars and

their ungainly gambols. Only bathing

FIVE TRIBES
Investigating Committee Makes Partial
Report to the Senate-legaiity
of Recent Order Disputed.

Washington, Jan. 16.-The special
committee appointed by the senate to
investigate all matters connected with
the five civilized tribes. made a par
tial report late this afternoon which
among other things recommends as
follows:
That no immediate action be TAX
en- towards the leasing or sale OF the
minerals in the coal and asphalt lands
but that the surface be sold for home
stealing; that regulations to prevent
monopolies are approved but that they
should be modified to encourage more
pipe lines and that congress act speed
lily. The report finds that the secre-
tary of the interior had no legal au-
thority to issue a recent order with
drawing from allotment lands in the
Choctaw, Chickasaw and Cherokee
nations.

be satisfied with nothing less than an
inquiry into all the facts, resented
what he claimed were differences made

personal assault upon the president.

He said he had no doubt that the
president would be pleased If con-
gress could find way to remove ''the
awful stigma" which had been put up
on the innocent negro soldiers. Mr..
Knox, (Pa.3, defended the presidents
legal and constitutional power to

listed men. Me. Stone, (Mo.), express
Cd regret that the. friends Of the pres

Cannon Says.
SPEAKER OUTLINES PLAN

Washington, Jan. 16.-Speaker Can
non late this evening, in speech to
delegates attending the convention
here for the extension of American
foreign commerce. outlined his Et-
titude on a maximum and minimum
tariff. The delegates were received
in the house lobby and were present
ed by w. M. McCarroll, president of
the New York board of trade and
transportation. Stipulating that he
spoke as representative from Illinois,
and not as speaker, Mr.. Cannon in part
said:
"If I understand the consensus of
Republican opinion in the country,
when l speak about a maximum and q
minimum tariff, speak about min
imum tariff that should run to all ma
tions, and to all peoples, so adjusted
as to offer ample protection to every
American industry. When we obtain

fact and to discriminate by way Of a

readily managed IL with time and in
