JUDGE BUM DEAD
IN CAPITAL CITY

Madison, Jan. 25.-Judge Romano
Bum died this afternoon aged 70
years. He retired from the United
States district bench on a $4,000 pen
sion in 1905 after a quarter century
on the bench. He formerly was cir
cult judge in the Sparta district. Death
was due to old age. He said that age
was all that allied him just a few
hours before the end. He was out
last Friday, and had a stenographer
at his side for dictation when heart
failure suddenly struck him. He
leaves a widow, three sons and two
daughters. One son, G. L. Bum, is a
district judge in st. Paul; c. w. Bum
is a prominent railway attorney there,
and John NJ. is a Spokane lawyer. One
daughter, Miss Mary, is at home, the
other is the wife of c. B. Chapman,
whose home is mostly at Williams
burgh, Va.

CONGRESSIONAL SUMMARY.

Washington, Jan. 2O.-The salary of
the president of the United States
was fixed at 100000 per annum, as
far as the senate could fix it, and the
salaries of the vice-president and
speaker of the house at $4,000 each.
The salary Of the chief justice Of
the supreme court was increased to
$4,000 per annum, and those Of the
associate justices to $14,500. These
changes were made as amendments to
the legislative. executive and judicial
appropriation bill and after extended
debate. Amendments allowing $4,000
to the vice-president and speaker for
horses and carriages We're stricken
from the bill. Senator Rayner's res
olutiOn calling on the attorney gen
eral for information concerning the
suit he proposes bringing against GER
tain newspapers on the charge Of II
bel in connection with statements
made in relation to the purchase of
the Panama canal property was re
ferred to the committee on judiciary
after a strong fight to have
it adopted without such reference.
During the di cussion of the PROPOSE
ton to increase salaries, Senator
Money paid his respects to the presi-
dent. There is a gradual change of
opinion going on said Mr.. Money,
land people now do not regard the
president as the servant of the peo-
pie, because in a current magazine
statement is made that there are two
great rulers of the world, one TheO-
dOre Roosevelt and the other William
II. Both have been rebuked William
submitted, while the ruler of America,
Theodore Roosevelt, refused to sub
nit. All over The world there Is a
tremendous tendency toward freedom
of the people. There is an effort being
made to withdraw from rulers that
part of their power that belongs to
the people, but at the same time in
the republics of the world there is a
tremendous tendency the other way"
Disposing of the speech of Repre-
sentative Willett of New York, at
t3Ching the president, by referring 1t
to a special committee, the house
proceeded to take up appropriation
bills. The pension and deficiency
bills were passed and when adjourn
ment was taken the naval appropria-
lions bill was under consideration,
The pension DILL abolishes all but one
of the IS pension agencies through
out the country. The bill carries
$1G0,869, 900, and was passed prac-
tically as reported The plan to pay
pensions quarterly was defeated. The
urgent deficiency bill, which carries
$1,026,402, was passed after several
votes had been called for on an
amendment offered by Mr.. Heflin of
Alabama providing for an appropria-
ton of $4,000 T. the further distri-
button of seeds by the department of
agriculture.
Mr. Foss, of Illinois, chairman Of
the house committee on naval affairs,
brought up the naval appropriations
bill, which probably will occupy the
attention of the house for a day or
two. The bill carries $135,662 1888.
A message from the president rec
Ommending the appropriation of 500
600 for a commission to inve tigate
