the senate committee on appropria-
tions, when it Informally discussed the
canal finances few days ago. saw the
foolishness of going at the work of the
bond authorization in piecemeal fash
ion. Money had to be authorized for
the continuation of the work they rea-
soned, SO why not set a generous limit
of the cost and give the secretary OF
the treasury the authority to make his
bond issues under it as needed.
Senator Hopkins, as prominent ad-
ministration member of the canal COM
mittee which should consider the meas.
ure, was accordingly given his tip.
His measure introduced yesterday
simply amends the Spooner act in such
la manner as to change the aggregate
amount of appropriations authorized

Snow in considerable quantities is

days and over the eastern states until
about Saturday. In the absence of re-
ports from Alaska the degree of cold
to follow the disturbance cannot be

will be colder Thursday in the middle

Yesterday in Congress

Washington, Jan. 13.-Following is a
summary, compiled from the official
proceedings, of the work of both
houses of congress yesterday:
SENATE-A spirited speech by Sena-
tor Foraker of Ohio on the use of pri-
vate detectives in investigating the
Brownsville affair was the feature of
interest in the senate. Mr. Foraker
laid aside his manuscript several times
during his address to inject remarks
that were pointedly aimed at the pres
ident. Mr.. Lodge replied to Mr.. For
aker's remarks. Mr.. Foraker endeav-
ored to have a day fixed for voting on
his bill for the reenlistment of the dis
charged soldiers of the 25th regiment
but Mr.. Warren, chairman of the COM
mittee on military affairs. insisted upon
|postponing such agreement until a fu-
ture day. The senate at $40 o'clock ad-
journed.
HOUSE-Working with only a small
lquota of members, the house of repre-
lsentatives devoted its entire time e

What appears to be scheme to get

of the houses of the city for the pur-
pose of burglary later on, is being
worked by a man in this city, or at

were aroused today and the matter
reported to the police. A man claiming

pany applied at a number of houses
on Twenty-third street between Fifth

under the pretext that he wished to
inspect the gas burners and meters.
He then examined each gas fixture in
all the rooms, and even went to the
cellar to see the meters. One of the
housekeepers thus visited became sus.
picious and telephoned to the com.
pany's Offices. She found that there
was no one authorized to do such work
and notified the police.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-Mrs. Jeanette

late Charles II. Deere of Moline, while

instituted against her by DIR. Kirke

right of man to bring such an action

arbitration proposal.
Doctor Wns Recompensed.

marriage Stanley made claim against
Mrs. Chapman on account of certain
alleged expenditures by him in procur

TiUP ASTOREAL COSToFPANAMA CANAL

Washington. Jan 13.-With the in
PRODUCTION of bill yesterday by Sena-
tor Hopkins raising the limit of the
cost of the Panama canal to $5C0, ,000,-
600 it became apparent that the coun.
try is to be treated to few little sur
prises as to the real nature and cost
Of the governments undertaking in
joining the two big oceans.
Senator Hopkins introduced his bill
in all good faith on the advice of a
member of the committee on appropri-
ations. and it is expected to pass.
The committee on interoceanic can
ais, of which Senator Hopkins is
| member, will take up the bill Satur
| day next. Judging from the remarks
of certain members of the committee
| there is to be some serious opposition
to the increase and some extended
discussion, at least, before the report
is secured, and it is altogether likely
that the committee will wish to call
before it again, as it did last year, the
members of the canal commission, and
perhaps Mr.. Taft, the president-elect,
who as secretary of war had great
deal to do with the Inauguration of
the canal project.
Rude Jolt Given Senator'S.
A great many senators received a
rude jolt when they learned that an
effort would be made to raise the limit
of the cost of the canal to such stu
Ipendous amount. This was despite the
fact it was carefully explained to them
that such action was contemplated
Imainly to give the secretary of the
Treasury the authority to make Panama
icanal bond issues as they were needed
land thus scatter the cost of the canal
through the maturing of the bonds
over a period of years. There was
, plainly heard the rumble of protest and
