Washington, Feb. 23.-Although the
senate devoted four hours to legislative
matters today, nothing was accom-
plished except speech-making. The

further criticism. 1t is proposed that

disposal Of the Forest service to make
up for revenue taken away from it and
turned into the treasury. While this
amendment probably is to be accepted.
