Democratic Approval of the Administration
 Repudiated by Republicans
The Entire Session Consumed With Discussion the Message--The Senate Passes the Urgent Deficiency Appropriation Bill.

Washington, Feb. 4-President ROosevelt's recent message was again the theme of discussion in the house today. So great was the demand for time that the general debate on the Indian appropriation bill, which was pending business. was extended until tomorrow.
 Interest in today's proceedings cen tered in a speech by John Sharp Will Hams the minority leader, who while lauding the president for some of his sentiments expressed a belief that oth- CTS were dangerous. MT Williams spoke nearly two hours. His remarks on the financial question prompted a lengthy discussion of the subject by MT. Hill of Connecticut, in which he opposed the Aldrich bill.
 Mir Bonynge of Colorado called at tentiOn to what he said was the absO- lute insincerity and hypocrisy of the democratic party as an organization in its political attitude toward the pres ident He quoted several passages from the last democratic campaign book antagOnistic to President ROose- welt and inquired if they accorded with the present democratic cOmmendation of the president He charged that these utterances of the democrats are made at this time simply for political purposes" The democrats he said had heretofore shown a disposition to with hold cOmmendation Of republican statesmen and republican administra- trations until the statesmen had pass ed to the great beyond. and the ad- ministration had passed into history But this time he said they are catch

FUEL FAMINE
 FACES TUCSON
A Ruling of the Interstate
 Commerce Commission :.
By Which the Rate on Cali tOrnia Oil Was Nearly Quadrupled.

Tucson. Feb. 4.-(Special) )-Tucson is face to face with a fuel and light famine. Manager Russell of the gas and electric companies and also of the street car service, says that he has supply of oil on hand for only twenty four hours and that unless he can get oil from the railroad company. Tucson vii! be without either gas. electricity or street car service until oil can be procured from Bakersfield. At the earliest that will be four or five days
 The shortage is due to an order of the interstate commerce commission practically quadrupling the rate on oil from Bakersfield to Tucson. Prior to December 31 last the rate had been $6 a ton. That was based on the commodity rate to Benson and inter- mediate points" Complaint was made to the commission. which decided that the rate Was not applicable to Tue son. but that the railroad company should charge the regularly published fifth class rate which is $23.60 a ton. That went into effect on the first of the year and in consequence no oil was ordered pending some adjuSmelt of the matter.
 The unreasonableness of the order was made known to the commission and a special ruling was made by which the company under the rate law might publish a rate of $6 to Tucson. That required thirty days and the time Of publication expired today. Orders had in the meantime been placed but the oil cannot be delivered here before the latter part of the week. The rail road people say that they will not be able to spare any oil to the city cn account of the threatened shortage of their own supply.

as to the date of Heney's return from San Francisco. Bristol testified that he was reasonably certain that Heney returned to Portland on a belated train about noon Monday when in fact he did not arrive until the day following
 On direct examination Bristol had testified that the verdict in the Hen dricks case was returned about mid night when the records showed that the jury reported at S:S0 in the even ing.

THE ARGUMENT STAGE
 IN CONSPIRACY CASE
Heney Forced 70 Fall Back or the
 Testimony of an Immune.

 Portland, Ore, Feb. 4.-The final ar guments in the John Hall conspiracy case will begin tomorrow. During the afternoon Hene- announced that the government had rested and an hour later Judge Webster closed the case for the defense. Heney made the op- ening address and will probably speak three hours.
 An attempt was made to prove that United States District Attorney Bristol was mistaken in everything he testi- fled to when giving evidence for the defense. He enlivened the morning proceedings. Heney had to take this course O. action in order to induce the jurors to believe the testimony of Commissioner H. H. Hendricks, who had been indicted with Hall and others who testified againt Hall under prom ise ot leniencv from the government. Bristors testimony was diametrically opposed to tat oe Hendricks.
 T. B. Neuhausen, special inspector of the interior department. testified that he saw Hendricks and Bristol hold Ia conference in the district attorneys office on the night of August 10. 9O6. the night when the Bristol Heney tele- gram was sent.
 When the government rested Judge Webster recalled Bristol who testified substantially to the same facts he did on his first examination. He again de- nied positively ever having talked with Heney when the latter made overtures for immunity from the government.
 Bristol reiterated that he had held only one conversation with Hendricks and that was on the night of his con victiOn last August. On cross -eXamin- atiOn the witnesses became confused
