Bill
IS LONG UNPAID

WASHINGTON, June 27-Death has
disclosed that the Government has for
twenty-six years refused to pay the
expenses incident to the funeral Of
President Garfield William r. Speare,
veteran undertaken of Washington,
died a few days ago, and it has been
disclosed that the most valuable asset
of his estate is a claim against the
Government for services incident to
the funeral of Garfield
Soon after the Garfield funeral, Con-
gress appropriated money to defray all
expenses, and the Secretary of the
Treasury appointed a commission to
investigate all bills. All those pre-
senting claims were required to file
receipted bills. Speare, who had his
own ideas about business, refused to
hand to the Government a receipt in
full for his services in advance of re-
ceiving the money. AS payment could
only be made upon such receipt, the
hands of the Government were tied
and for twenty-six years Speare has
been trying to btain a settlement. APP
peals have been made to Congress by
Speare to secure the payment of his
account. Now that the claim will
pass into other hands, it is probable
that this bill will be paid, by the
Speare heirs agreeing to comply with
the Governments requirements.

merce of Toxic, Osaki, Kobe, Kyoto
and Yokohama. A resolution was
drafted indicating the grave danger
facing the commercial relations Of the
United States and Japan owing to the
anti-Japanese sentiment on the Pacific
Coast. The necessity of resorting to
speedy measures to remove this OBJ
stacle to the development of trade re-
lations was pointed out. At the next
meeting, to be held within a few days,
the resolution will be given official
form and then wired to the principal
chambers of commerce in the United
States, asking their cooperation.

ordinary methods of church work,
and are leaving town with less than

San Francisco at the time OF the
great shake, and he has a store Of
incidents, both pathetic and humor-

to be thrilling beyond description.

Senate and House in Brief.

Washington, Jan. %. = The senate
spent the entire day discussing the
race question, Tillman replying to
Spooner and others who had criticised
him, and before it was all over things
looked belligerent. Everything was
smoothed over, however, apologies
were made and caustic remarks ex-
plunged from the record. No business
was done.
The house pronounced unanimously
in favor of charging and making more
efficient the field and coast artillery. A
bill was passed authorizing the secre-
tary Of commerce and labor to inves-
tigate and report upon the industrial.
social. moral, educational and physical
condition of women and child workers
in the United States" The measure
has already passed the senate. The
District of Columbia appropriation was
also passed.

MATTERS GROW VERY HOSTILE

But 1t All Blows Over and Peace Is
Preserved.
TiIlman devoted the remainder Of his
speech to a reply to the criticisms OF
him made by Spooner, complaining
that they were uncalled for and based
on a false Interpretation of what he
CCillman) had said. He reiterated his
well-known views on lynching, de-
claring that law or no law he would
lynch any man, black or white, for
rape of any woman, black or white,
and believed he would be doing right.
Spooner replied, declaring that what
he had said of Tillman was justified
by Tillman's own words, and that he
withdrew not one word. He denounced
Tillman's avowed position IS to lynch
ing declaring that government with
out law was tyranny, and to lapse into
such government was to lapse into
barbarism. Such doctrines. he said,
were peculiarly wrong when held by
persons in high places.
Carmacl5 then replied to Tillman and
was very acrimonious in his remarks,
intimatine that Tillman was Of low
| order of intelligence, and that there
would be no regret when the South
| Carolinian's term ended for good in
the senate The atmosphere of the SEN
ate grew so warm that Teller insisted
in closing the doors and having the
galleries cleared, the senator seem
| ing to fear that riot would result if
the flow of language was not checked.
The doors were closed and a secret
session was held, which was devoted
entirely to an effort to secure the ex-
punging from the congressional record
of the portion Of Tillman's remarks
referring to other senators as min
strelS.
Some Of the senators alluded to at
| first refused to agree until they had
an opportunity to reply, but Tillman
declared that part of his remarks only
bit of humor and pleasantly, and
agreed to withdraw it and apologize
to the offended senators, and do it in
open session. The secret session was
followed by brief open one, in which
Iillman made a profuse apology to
Carmack, to all senators whom he had
brought into his FIRST essay in the line
Of humor," and finally to the entire
senate. 81 very much regret that
ever undertook to be funny, and l will
never do so any more" said he.
This apology was at once accepted
by Carmacz, who regretted that he
had questioned the motives of his
friend, and he too withdrew words be
had uttered in protest.
And that ended the incident.
