purchased the Conrad lands for a big
sum of money last fall have made ar

CONGRESS
Summary of Senate.

Washington, D. C.. May 5.-An ex- tended speech in opposition to the for estry service bill was made by Senator Hepburn. of Idaho. in the Senate to- day. while the agricultural appropria tion bill was under consideration.
 Mir. Hepburn ridiculed the charts of the forestry service, one of which he had exhibited on the wall of the Sem ate chamber marked with such leg ends as About twenty years supply left" and declared that the forester had undertaken to prophecy concern ing the life of the forests in a way that would require more wisdom than was possessed by the sages of the world. He said that such men forgot that forests grow and added that there is as much forest growth today as there ever had been in the history of the world. He criticized the practice Of speaking of "any mans policy" say ing that the only policies of the gov ernment that are not fictitious are those that are written in the laws of the land.
 MT Hepburn spoke on his amend ment excepting the forests of Idaho from those in which timber may be cut by the Secretary of Agriculture and exported from the State.
 MT. Warner. of Missouri. continued his speech on the Brownsville affray but did not conclude.

 The market opened steady at a decline of two points to an advance of one point with active months generally lower in re- eponse to somewhat disappointing cables. But considering the character of reports Eoncerning political conditions in India and the suspension of Augusta spot Of the Liverpool market was thought a fAirly steady one and after some little ir- rHEularity the market there firmed up while fqcaIly prices worked over the closing fig ures of slat night on covering and sup port from leading trade interests.
 July sold up to s 90 or ten points net htgher. while later months showed a net gain of about seven to eight points at one lime during the morning. but this was fol- lowed by an easier market after midday. notwithstanding a bullish weekly weather xeport and fluctuations in the late trading were quite irregular.
 At one time the market was about siv or eeven points net oliver July and later nonths so that the close was up from the 4Nwest as result of covering. The spot Aeuse. failure announced had no other than q sentimental effect here. There were Eoufh and the eastern belt forecast calling for cold rains offset a rather better westh- or map than expected
