NO VICE AOM|BAL PROVISION
STRICKEN OUT OF BILL ON
RAYNER'S OBJECTION.
Sampson-Schley Controversy Not
Revived, as Point of Order
Is Not Debated.

The ghost of the famous controversy be-
tween Admirals Sampson and Schey,
growing uot of the battle of Santiago,
Cuba, was prevented from stalking
through the chamber of the Senate this
afternoon.
Senator Rayner of Maryland. who de-
Tended Admiral Schley before the court of
inquiry In that case, was prepared to make
fight on the floor to exclude from the
naval appropriation bill Senate commit
tee amendment creating the new rank OF
vice admiral which, it was generally un-
derstood. was to have been given to Ad-
miral Robley d. Evans.
Mr.. Rayner was determined to prevent
this honor going to Admiral Evans. be-
cause, as he said privately. He was the
leader of the conspiracy against Admiral
Schley."
Admiral Evans was one Of the wit
nesses against Admiral Schley before the
court of inquiry.
When the amendment was reached in
the bill this AFTERNOON Mr.. Rayner made
a point Of order against it on the ground
that it was new legislation.
Mr.. Hale. chairman of the naval COM
mittee. admitted the point was well taken,
and did not try to defend the amendment
Mr.. Rayner's point of order was sus-
tanned by the chair. The provision for the
new rank was stricken out without dis
cussion of the merits of the case.

suit for maintenance filed by his wife,
Mrs. Anne c. d. Coquilett, the I'd in
stant He declares his wife deserted him
in October. 1905, and for several months
he did not hear from her until a bill con-
tracted by her was presented to him for
payment.
The allegation contained in the COM
plant of the wife that he had applied
for a divorce in California is denied by
the answer. The husband also says that
his wealth. which was estimated in the
wife's bill at nearly $4,000, does not
exceed one-tenth of that hgure, and
that what he possesses has been accu-
mulated as d safeguard against loss of
his position. when he grows old.
Mr. CoQuilett states that shortly after
their marriage his wife engaged in a
persistent course of. nagging and har-
assment toward him. which he endured
as pacifically as possible until she left
him in 1903.
He admits that Secretary Wilson, on
the complaint of the wife. required him
to pay her $50 of his salary each month,
and declares that the present suit is an
attempt to require him to increase the al
lowance.
Justice Barnard. after hearing the pa
pers read, signed order requiring Mr..
Coquillett to continue the $50 payments
pending the determination of the case.

DEEPER LAKE WATERWAY
PLANS TO IMPROVE CHANNEL
FROM CHICAGO TO BUFFALO.
$500" Route Urged as Most Feasible
in the Project to Be Sub
mitted to Congress.

A deep water channel from Chicago to
Buffalo. via the $780, is in contempla-
ton In few days measure will be
introduced in Congress providing, in
brief, for the complete survey and per-
haps, for the construction of such a
waterway.
Behind the project are practically all
Of the shipping and manufacturing and
laboring interests on the great lakes
That the plan is entirely feasible is in
dicated by the fact that already there is
a Chicago-to-B Buffalo channel twenty-one
feet deep. This waterway is the growth
Of many years work. and although the
depth has been increased from time to
time, it has not kept pace with the
growth of commerce on the lakes.
Contracts already have been let for the
construction of a lock at the $780," which
will accommodate three of the largest
vessels on the lakes at one time.
The depth of water over the sills of the
new lock will be twenty-siX feet and the
cost of the project will be approximately
s., GOO 600.
Thomas J. Dolan of Chicago. general
secretary of the International Brother
hood of Steam Shovelmen and Dredge-
man. who participated in the council of
labor last week at the Department of
Commerce and Labor, is vigorously urg-
ing the deepening of the Chicago to-
Buffalo channel, not only because he re-
CARDS it as a necessity for the commerce
of the lakes, but also because he be-
lieves it will tend to a solution of the
problem of the unemployed.
Every interest on the lakes will sup
port the project to deepen the channel"
said Mr.. DOlan. 1T will mean much to
the people of the middle west and to the
east in the reduction of rates on freight
drawing twenty-five feet as economically
as they can vessels drawing only twenty
feet. OF course. the carrying capacity
Of the deeper draft vessels is immense
ly greater. My idea would be to con-
struct channel 600 feet wide and 26
feet deep. Such a waterway could be
completed by the time the 500 lock is
finished. 1t is a great project but its
carrying into effect would solve many
great problems"

SALE OF INDIAN LANDS.
Contention May Result in Appoint
ment of Commission.

Officials of the Choctaw and Chicka-
saw tribes of Indians take the position
that the government has no right to
enact laws restricting them in the sale
of their lands in small tracts to indi-
viduals if COAL asphalt or timber monop-
olies stand ready to pay the higher prices
for large tracts. The Senate committee
on Indian affairs today took up the bin
providing for the disposition of the af-
fairs of the five civilized tribes, and
heard several Indian delegates.
+. n. Wright. the delegate of the Choc-
taws. declared that the Indians were'n not
concerned with the public policy in re-
gard to the public lands, and that the
indian lands should not be treated as
public domain. He favors the passage
OF an act providing for the appointment
or commission to appraise and classify
all OF the tribal lands so as to show
the value of the surface the minerals
ana the timber. with view to the enact
ment OF law providing for the purchase
or the property by the government

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. February II.
Henry S. Priest of st. Louis and II.
Clay Pierce, chairman of the board of
the Waters-Pierce Oil Company. today
filed in the supreme court of Missouri
an acceptance of the terms imposed
upon the company by the recent custer
order of the court The fine of $4,000
was paid by certified check.
Silent About Reorganization.
The custer decree provided that the
company must show to the court that it
had severed all connection with the
Standard Oil Company. A statement to
this effect may yet be required by the
court.
Judge Priest, however, said that he
believed today's action covered the case
so far as the Missouri corporation is con-
cerned
The supreme court will not meet again
until February -. and there is no indica-
tiOn of the attitude that the tribunal
will adopt toward the document filed to-
day. The acceptance is silent SO far as
showing q reorganization independent of
the Standard Oil Company is concerned
and there is no showing that the New
Jersey corporation does not still own 60
per cent of the Waters-Perce stock and
control the affairs of the company.
May Appeal to Court.
1t is said that the Waters-Pierce COM
pany will answer later that it has been
unable to comply with the reorganization
order. and will ask the court to aid in
carrying out this part of the decree. If
