Senator Hepburn has given notice of an

vania avenue, the mall, 18th street and the

ported from the committee on public build

ment to the District bill for the construc-
ton Of sewer in the valley of Broad

branch between Broad branch and Wiseon-
sin avenue, for which purpose an appro-
priation Of $2S. 800 is proposed; also an APP
preparation of $4,000 for beginning work on
the sewer from the west side of Rock creek
between P and Military road.

LARGER FORCE; MORE PAY.
Local Attorneys Urged Increased Sal
aries for Patent Examiners.


committee of local patent attorneys. in
Guiding r. T. Frazier, Arthur P. Greedy,
VIM. P. McIntire. Gen. Spear, former COM
missioner of patents; Arthur s. Brown and
Geo. T. Whittlesey, appeared before the
House committee on patents this morning
to urge favorable action on the Currier bill,
to increase the examining force of the pat
ent Office and the salaries Ct the special ex-
aminers.
Mr.. Frazier called attention to the fact
that the patent Office Is much more than
self-sustaining. the balance turned into the
treasury last year being about S236.
They thought one Of the best and surest
ways to increase the efficiency of. the ex-
amining force was to provide a general
raise of salaries sufficient to retain the good
men in the service. OF late many of them
have left, being offered much better sal
aries outside of the government service.
Mr.. Greedy noted that the feld in which
examinations must be made had very
largely increased having jumped from 223,-
600 in 1880 to nearly a million at the pres
ent time. Those were just the American
patents. In the same time foreign patents
have jumped from 100000 to more than
LOO zoo. Mr.. Greedy said further that the
ordinary average OF cases examined by
each assistant examiner approximated go
q year. In 1906 and 1905 the average was
about 245. but in the six months from July
l. 1905. to January 1, 1907 with a force OF
nearly 100 new men the average had been
computed on a yearly basis at about 3ls.
From October 1. 1906 to January 1, 1907.
computed on an annual basis, the rate had
been about 400 for each examiner. He
thought it absolutely impossible for any ex-
aminer to do this amount of work and do 1t
properly
Mr.. McIntire Endorsed Mr.. Greely's views
and called the committees attention to the
fact that the amount of work done by an
examiner had increased from 60 to 70 per
cent in the past five years. He thought this
did not make for efficiency.

NEW JERSEY SENATORIAL SIT
UATIoN GROWS COMPLICATED.

TRENTON. N. J.. February 5.-The re-
publican members of the New Jersey legis-
lature. who were to have gone into caucus
at am. today on the senatorship. failed
to meet on time, owing to the absence OF
several members. but an informal CAUCUS
was held during the forenoon while wait
ing the arrival of the absentees. The alb
sent members were Senator Lee Of Atlantic
and Assemblymen Haines and Burk, who
were detained at their homes on account of
illness.
Matters were further complicated in the
situation today by the refusal of Senator
Alderman. an anti-Dryden man. to go into
the caucus. and by Senator Colby leaving
it after he had been severely arraigned by
Assemblyman Crowthers Of Middlesex. Mr..
Crowthers questioned Senator C0lby's sim
certify in his political movements. Senator
Colby was much incensed. He had already
announced he would not support Mr.. Briggs
II the latter was nominated. Senator Ack-
erman wants time to think matters over.
Senator Lee arrived at noon and entered
the meeting. which made forty members
present. The other two absentees are on
the way to Trenton, and the republicans de-
cided to remain In continuous session until
they arrived.

cussion OF the Measure.
The House today went into committee OF
the whole for the further consideration of
the rivers and harbors appropriation bill,
general debate on which was to terminate
at 8 O'Clock.
Representative Keife- Of Ohio. who was
addressing the House on Saturday, and
was forced to discontinue his remarks by
reason of the eulogies on the life and char
acter of the late Senator German from
Maryland. resumed his speech on the merits
of the BILL
Mr.. Keifer was followed by Mr.. Davidson
of Wisconsin, a member Of the rivers and
harbors committee, who defended the meas
ure as one of the very best river and har-
Dor bills ever presented to Congress Sec
tionalism has never entered into the COM
mittee ROOM" said Mr. Davidson, nor has
politics The committee has had an eye
single to the best interests of the country,
and this bill needs no defense AS to the
Cape May project. Mr.. Davidson remarked
that it was absolutely necessary to build
harbor of refuge there, as there was no
harbor from the mouth of the Delaware
river to New York The mouth Of the Della
ware he said. was one of the most dan
safety of vessels was absolutely dependent
on the creation of a channel from the At
lantic ocean Into the inner harbor Of Cape
May He paid tribute to the public spirit
of Philadelphia. saying that 1t had done for
itself more than any other city In the
United States. but Philadelphia is a hun
dred miles inland. and the question arises
can a city 100 miles inland expect to be put
on the same standing as Boston, New York
and Baltimore.

THE INDIAN BILL UP.
Consideration Begun by the Senate
Today.

Consideration of the Indian appropriation
bill was begun In the Senate today imme
diately after the morning business had been
disposed Of.
The Senate amendment adding certain
Indian lands to the area of the Truckee-
Carson irrigation project went out On
point of order by Mr.. Hale.
In making point of order against pro-
vision for carrying out a treaty agree
ment with the Jicarilla Indians of New
Mexico, Senator Hale remarked: This
bill is covered. loaded, shingled with
amendments that are not proper here 1t
is wholesale. In all my experience in
Congress l have never seen an appropria-
ton bill that from start to finish, from
beginning to end, had so many appropria-
tions that are subjects to points of order.
Some of them are merely private claims.
In reply. Senator Clapp in charge of the
bill admitted there was a great deal of
constructive" legislation on the bill. and
said that it was made necessary to close
I'D the affairs Of various tribes of Indians,
notably in Indian NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
both necessary and desirable. The bill had
always carried much legislation of this
class. and ne had supposed that 1t was the
proper place for it. If Mr.. Hale was to
make points Of order it would be necessary
to bring in a special bill or bills to cover
the points.
THE senator has struck precisely what
Is the remedy" suggested Mr.. Hale. and
Mr.. Clapp Indicated that this would be
done.

CHARITIES WORKERS.
Snow and Cold Increase Applications
for Assistance.

While the Associated Charities workers
are very buoy during the whole year. In
weather Ike the present, it is explained.
they find their resources heavily taxed
Every one Of the eight Offices Throughout:
the city is crowded during the Office hours
with those in need of food and fuel, and
the nine agents are hardly able to make all
the visits necessary to sift the applica-
tons and find where work can be procured
or how the families can be best helped.
Coal is especially necessary. as the poor
are tf,inly clad and the houses poorly
built.
Some Of the agents report that In spite
OF the mild weather In January they had
an unusually hard month; that there was
80 much sickness and 50 many accidents
that a great many people were compelled
to apply for aid.
Among those whom the Associated Chart
ties have had to look after have been many
deserted wives and children.
The old, the feeble and the sick need es-
pecial attention. MIX and eggs are fur

to get the proper diet themselves. In order
to carry on the relief work the Associated
Charities has appealed for further contribu-

HONDURAS LOTTERY:
Department Of Justice Making Out
Strong Case Against Its Officials.

Department Of Justice Making Out
Strong Case Against Its officials.
Officials of the Department of Justice be-
lieve that they are rapidly making out
strong case against the officials Of the
honduras Lottery Company, and intima-
tons are pretty strong that prosecutions
will shortly follow, despite the efforts of
the attorneys and representatives of the
company to escape by promising to put
the company out Of business. The prosecu-
lions, il made, will be brought under the
lottery act, and the department feels that
it has secured much damaging evidence at
various points in the country, especially at
Mobile, Ala, where w. H. Ambrecht, the
United States attorney for the southern
district OF that state, made raid and ar
rested twenty-five men engaged In the
printing OF tickets. The arrests delayed
the appearance Of two afternoon news
papers. as a large part of the mechanical
force of each was put in Jail.
It is said that the company has done
an enormous business. 1t has a capitaltza-
ton OF $10,000,0O0, and among the large
stockholders are said to be wealthy men of
this city and elsewhere. All Of them are
liable to prosecution. The company paid
large cash sum to Honduras for the con-
cession of operating the lottery there and
the tickets were distributed by the express
companies, which have now turned states
evidence and are giving the government
their aid and assistance.
