HOUSE HAS VOTED
To FORTIFY CANAL
ApprOprIates 100000 10
Begin Work.
TOTAL ESTIMATES 100000.
Action of the House Practically Set
ties the Question of Fertilization, as
the Sentiment of the Senate is In
Favor of Same.

The house of representatives voted
overwhelmingly in favor of the policy
of fortifying the Panama canal, and
appropriated 100000 to begin the
work, the total cost of which has been
estimated at $12,OOO,0OO, after a
lengthy debate.
The action of the house practically
settles the question of fortification, for
the sentiment in the senate is said to
be more than to 1 in favor of pro-
tecting the Isthmian waterway by
seacoast batteries.
The real test in the house came on
an amendment proposed by Repre-
sentative Tawney, of Minnesota, chair
man Of the committee on appropria-
lions. Mr.. Tawney has been opposed
to fortifying the canal from the first,
and made forceful speech against
that policy near the close Of the de-
bate. He then offered an amendment,
which provided that no part of the
money set aside for fertilization
should be used until the president of
the United States had attempted to ne
gotiate treaties with all of the leading
maritime nations guaranteeing the
neutrality and international protection
of the canal.
Representative Sherley, of Ken
lucky, bitterly attacked this amend
ment and warned members that 1t had
been introduced for the sole purpose
of defeating the appropriation.
The Tawney amendment then was
voted down, 1870 to SO. A motion by
Representative Keifer, of Ohio, to
strike out all provision for the fortifi-
cation Of the canal was lost, 1876 to 81.
The final interest in the debate
seemed to center in the Tawney
amendment, and the speeches made
for and against it by Mr.. Tawney and
Mr.. Sherley.

RAID ON OCEAN LINER.
Conspiracy to Violate U. s. lmmlgra-
ton Laws.

Federal officers swept aboard a
transatlantic liner when she made
her pier In New York and arrested
every man in authority from captain
down. All are charged with con-
spiracy to violate the United States
immigration laws.
The steamship is the Athinai, of the
Hellenic Transatlantic Steamship
Company, whose general agent at
New York also was arrested. The
government charges that the company
has been smuggling In aliens for more
than a year, some Of them disguised
as members of the crew, others hidden
about the ship until there was no dan
ger of search.
Nikolas A. Galanos, the agent, was
released under $4,000 bond. and his
confidential secretary in $4,000. Cap
tain Gekas Klouras was released In
$4,000, as were his first officer, chief
engineer, and DIR. Gerasimos Diakova-
tos, the ships surgeon. Three other
officers were held in $4,000 bail each,
and each OF the eighteen members OF
the crew in $4,000 each.
In all the government required $780,
900 bail Judge Chatfield, sitting in
the United States circuit court, before
whom the indictments were read, set
trial for March 1. The penalty for
conspiracy is $4,000 fine and two
years Imprisonment, either or both,
and for violating Section of the i'm
migration laws $4,000 and two years,
either or both.
A field agent of the immigration bu-
reau at Washington, who worked up
the case, had seventy-six names on
his list, but only twenty-nine of them
could be found on the Athinai when
he boarded her at quarantine. No ar
rests were made until the ship moored
in Brooklyn.
The passengers were taken off with
out confusion, and federal officers then
searched the ship, arresting those
wanted who could be found.

Bryan was requested to call the meet

Good Crop Prospects.

Prospects look very bright for the
farmers in the southern part of Flor
ida, and the possibility of splendid
crop this season is more than evident
Judging from the reports received
from various farmers and planters
throughout the state, and from the
large vegetable shipments which are
being made to the eastern and western
markets.
Graham w. King, an extensive farm
er and tomato grower, of Tilford, on
the East Coast, says that he has never
in his life seen the crops look better
1t seems to be more diversified this
year than has been witnessed for
some time.

CAUGHT IN LUMPKIN.
After Long Chase Of Many Days on.
GERS Of the Law Believe They Have

ern's Fast Mall.

Three men arrested in Lumpkin

One of these prisoners, aged 60, who
gives his name as John Doe, Jonn
Luck and also John Anderson, is sullen
and reluctant to talk on the crime for
which he is held.
The other two seem perfectly will
ing to talk In regard to the robbery,
and have confessed everything. Upon
their arrival at Gainesville, Ca, they
we're in a condition that nscessitated

express car, and buried near the scene
of the robbery.
Two more suspects arrested at Ball
Ground, Ca, we're brought to Gaines
vile, and efforts are being made to
connect them with the hold-up.
When the three men were captured
in Lumpkin county there was found
only 50 American money on the entire
trio, while they possessed over $4,000
In British coin.
Mrs. Cooper, of White Sulphur
Springs, has identified Luck as the man
who bought q small quantity OF coal
oil from her store on the evening OF
the robbery.
The two younger prisoners stated
that Luck secured the larger amount OF
the booty, which caused a row between
the three, followed by separation and
their immediate arrest. They also
stated that they were headed for Ten
nessee when captured.

Caleb Powers, congressman-elect from
the 18th Kentucky district, has taken
cognizance of reports that efforts may
be made to exclude him from taking
the oath or sitting as member Of the

The statement made by Powers, 1t is
understood, was occasioned by the fact
that an extra session of congress Is i'm.
minent in which event the matter Of
his election and qualification would
necessarily be passed upon at an early
date
In his statement Mr.. Powers declar.
ed that beyond the rumor that Con.
gresham Bacon, of Arkansas, had de.
clared that he would question Powers
right to qualify as a member of con.
gress, he (Powers) had heard of no
specific effort along that line.
In concluding Powers said:
