FEDERAL LAW MAKERS.

Washington. Jan 1.-THE legal
phase Of President Roosevelt's dis
charge .s the negro troops was again
il Jected into the controversy in the
senate by notice Of an amendment
to the Foraker compromise resolu-
ton. which Senator Blackburn said
he should press Senator Foraker,
wEo concluded his argument de-
clared his OPPOSITION to the amend
ment. He discussed the power OF
the executive. holding that the ARRAY
at Brownsville ought to be inves-
tigated simply as to the facts and
the question of power determined
later If it should arise as a result of
the inquiry. He replied to arguments
which had been made since his first
peeches, especially those of Senator
Spooner and Knox.

o. ably by the claims committee but a
misunderstanding regarding it seemed
to prevail. Judge L. H. Bancroft Of

are in danger of creating a power, if
we pass this bill, from which the

The speech created a sensation and

Wakefulness Mr.. Ainsworth of the
claims committee explained that the
bill called for an appropriation of
only $4,000 and was really an exag-
gerated measure. Judge Bancroft re-
piled that he thought 1t was the bill
for an annual appropriation of $14,-
500 to the reference bureau,-and it
was that bill at which he had direct
ed his remarks. He went on to say
that he thought the deficiency meas
ure should pass and to that end
withdrew his motion for the reference
to the judiciary committee. The
measure was then passed without op-
position, after Mr. Estabrook and Mr.
