troubles settled amicably. but ours is
not a government by outside agree
ment. American. government is a
government of law.
The present mix-up very likely, I'M

MANCHURIA MEETS bad
Weather ON JOURNEY

Disagreeable weather characterized
the trip OF the Manchuria all the way
from Yokohama to this port. Not until
yesterday was a day experienced on
which the passengers could sit ON
deck with any degree of comfort, and
for several days the wind blew little
short of hurricane
Though the Manchuria was expected
In yesterday morning. 1t was not until
this morning that she poked her head
around BARRIERS Point. The heavy
iona wind which has been blowing all
day, made the Manchuria' berth in the
stream decidedly uncomfortable, while
she was waiting for the customs and
quarantine officials.

appropriation law to which reference
was made imposes no restrictions
whatever upon the use of the secret

expenditure Of the money appropriat-
ed. Mr.. Tawney In the debate stated
that he had in his possession "a let

which the Secretary of the Treasury
himself admits that the provisions
under which the appropriation has
been made have been violated year

herewith as Appendix A the letter
referred to. It makes no such admis-
sion as that which Mr.. Tawney al
leges.
But all of this is of insignificant i'm
portance compared with the main; the
real issue. This issue simply, Does
Congress desire that the Government
shall have at Its disposal the most
efficient instrument for the detection
of criminals and the prevention and
punishment Of crime. or does It not?
The action Of the House last May was
emphatically an action against the
interest Of justice and against the in
terest Of law-abiding people, and in
its effect Of benefit only to law
breakers. am not now dealing with
motives; whatever may have been the
motive that induced the action OF
which l speak, this was beyond all
question the effect of that action. Is
the House now willing to remedy the
wrong?
