INQUIRING IN SENATE
BROWNSVILLE INVESTIGATION
 WILL BEGIN FEsBRUARY 4.
Ne Counsel Will Re Allowed Men, But Foraker VIII Act As Their Cham picn--Details of the
 Hearing.

washintogn, Jan. 24-Testimony com corning the affray at Brownsville, rex, will be taken by the Senate Committee on Military Affairs. beginning February
 The full committee will sit at that time in Washington. Subpoenas will be issued at once for commissioned and non on-commissioned officers of the dis charged negro battalion and possibly for some of the enlisted men.
 In view of the fact that the court martial of some of the men involved will be held in Texas on the same date, the committee may find 1t necessary to examine part or these men prior so February 4. in which event an informal hearing will be had for this purpose. It was dtermined that no counsel should be permitted to attend the hear ings representing any of the parties in- terested.
 In order to expedite the taking of testimony, however, it was agreed that some member of the committee, prop ably Foraker, will conduct the case' insofar as it is a trial. on behalf of the enlisted men. It is understood that other members of the committee, or course, will be privileged to cross -ex- anime the men. This procedure was agreed on in order to keep the exam nations within bounds.
 The question of sending a sub-com- mittee to Brownsville. was discussed, but no decision reached. Senator warren, Chairman of the committee. said that matter could be taken up at another time. as it is not yet certain that 1t will be necessary to take tes- timony at Brownsville. The action of the committee today was entirely harmonious. None of the controversy which developed during the considera- tion of the resolution in the Senate was manifested in the deliberations of the committee.

FAMOUS PRISON OF ST. LAZARE
 GIVES WAY TO PROGRESS OF TIME

self died at Saint Lazare, and his cell is still shown to visitors
 Saint vincent's successors neglected the work commenced by him and the house was turned into a sort of re- formatory for insubordinate priests and unruly sprigs of nobility. The mobs of Papis sacked the establishment on the 18th of July. 17Ss. the eve of the storming of the bastile. and released forty prisoners.
 It was from St. Lazare that Sir An drew Chenier was led to the guillotine. Many celebrated female offenders have been lodged at St. Lazare while await ing trial, among them the famous Mad anne Humbert.
 From the hospital whicr adjoins the prison a long subterranean passage leads to the Plain of Saint Denis, and in 1871 a number of Federals escaped from Paris through this tunnel.

 London, Jan. 24.-Philippe Bunau- Varilla, who was at one time Minis ter of the Panama Republic to the United States, delivered an address be- fore the British Society of Arts last night. to an audience composed of a large number of engineers and scient- ists.
 NJ. Bunau-Varilla compared the French and American work on the Pan anna canal largely to the disadvantage of the latter, saying that the present plan and mode of excavation was an tagonistic to the natural forces on the isthmus. He concluded his address with these words:
 "If the Americans persist in fighting against nature the world will be de- prived of a perfect highway for com merce and obtain after many years of blind and useless work an expensive and unsafe high level lock canal, the keystone of which, the Gatun dam, will be washed out at the first earthquake, perhaps even before its inauguration"
