WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-An ami

The agricultural appropriation Dill
was under consideration, and, speak
ing ON it, Representative Boutell OF
Illinois upheld the Payne-Aldrich
tariff law as one that would be emil
nently satisfactory to the country ana
especially to southern states.
The senate received the postal saw

ure, and referred it to committee. IL
probably will be reported out to-
morrow.
A bill was passed providing for the
disposition by lottery of unallotted IN
dian lands in South Dakota, but not
before Senators Gore and Burkett had
bitterly assailed the system.
Senator Jeff Davis charged fraudulent
purpose in connection with the con-
sideration by the senate of the Dill
providing for the sale of the unallot-
ted lands in the Rosebud Indian reser-
walton in South Dakota.
He referred especially to the pro-
vision authorizing payment for certain

poses. Declaring that much of the
land was arid and worthless, he as
serted there was some powerful force"
behind the scheme to compel the gov

LONG CAREER is ENDED
Navy Man Who Served in Two Wars
Dies at His Massachu-

MELROSE, Mass, Jan. 27-Rear
Admiral Nehemiah Mayo Dyer, hon
ored for distinguished service in two
wars, died today following an attack
of acute indigestion.
He was rapidly promoted for his
meritorious conduct in the civil war
in the gulf campaign, and in the
Spanish-American war was second
only to Admiral Dewey in eminent
service at the battle of Manila bay,
for which he was advanced seven num-
bers in rank. He was Il years of age.
The veteran naval fighter recently
went to Washington to learn the re-
suit of a unique suit that he had
brought against the city of Melrose,
and that he had taken to the United
States court. 1t was an action to re-
cover taxes paid under protest on the
admirals bank account, the funds of
which he declared constituted the SAL
airy given him by the government. The
full bench, however, decided against
him.
