FINALLY PASSED.
Senate Disposes of the Indian APP
preparation Bill Friday.

Washington, Feb. S.-The Senate to-
day passed the Indian appropriation
bill. which has been the subject of con-
siderable discussion throughout the
week. Senator Frazier made an adj
dress on the subject of states rights,
after which the army appropriation bill,
carrying 4 total of SS1, 100000 was taken
up. The army measure was partly
read shortly before 6 o'clock, when it
became apparent that considerable de-
bate was to be occaSiOned by an
amendment to permit the government
to receive reduced rates from the rail-
roads on the transportation of troops
and supplies for the army, and to al
low army officers and their families 10
accept free transportation. The adop-
ton of this amendment would be a
modification of the railroad rate bill
passed at the last session of Congress-
Senator Warren, in charge of the bill
gave notice that he would press the
move to consider pension bills tomor-
row. Senator Nelson said he would
move tomorrow for the consideration
of the bill granting the government the
right of appeal in criminal cases, and
Senator Newton gave notice that al
4 o'clock tomorrow he would present
resolutions of regret at the death OF
the late Rep. Marsh Of Illinois.
