URE OF NEXT HOUSE
Hanna Says the Republicans
Will Win Easily.
DEMGCRATS WITHOUT AN ISSUE
Their Fight TJpoa Philippine Bill Re
solved Itself Into an Attack Upon
the Army Jones Is Rather
Modest In His Claim.
"WASHINGTON. July 2. Charroan Han
na, of the Republican National Commlt
tee, speaking of the results of the session
of Congress Just closed, declares the Re
publican party has met all of the great
legislative questions with ability and that
the results -will redound to the best Inter
ests of the country. He says the attempt
of the Democrats to manufacture cam
paign capital out of the Philippine ques
tion resolved Itself into an attack upon
the American Army, and since It, ftiled,
the party Is left floundering around -Without
an Issue. Everything done by the
Republicans assured confidence through
out the country, said Senator Hanna to
day, and "assures us of the safe and
sure election of the next House of Repre
sentatives." Senator JoiJes, chairman of the Demo
cratic National Committee, declares that
Congress failed to meet the expectations
of the country. He said: "It failed to
make a definite policy regarding the Phil
ippines, and failed to reduce the tariff, as
-well as carry out the promises made to
Cuba. "We have opportunity to make
gains in the "West during the comjng elec
tion, and we may havesome surprises in
other scetions."
This statement looks rather -weak. In
view of the boast made by the Democrats
that they intend to carry the next House,
BORWELIi TO RETAIX COMMAND.
Jio Change to Be Made at Paget
Spnnd Aavy-Yard for Time Being
"WASHINGTON, July 2. Representative
Jones, during a conference today with
Secretary Moody, recommended the reten
tion of Captain Bur-well as commandant
of the Puget Sound navy-yard, and "was
assured that no immediate change Is con
lemplated, although as the yard develops
it will probably be necessary to place it
in charge of an Admiral. Representative
Jones" also asked the Secretary to recom
mend the appointment of Burwell's son
as caoet-at-large to the Naval Academy.
An alternate appointment was promised
him,
To Be Eliminated From Reserve.
At the request of Representative Jones,
the Secretary of the Interior today or
dered the examination of 12 townships In
the Stlllaguamlsh River bottom, with a
view tq their elimination from the "Wash
ington forest reserves, as requested by the
Everett Chamber of Commerce.
Additional Postal Clerk.
At Representative Jones request an ad
ditional postal clerk is to be Installed on
the road from Spokane to Coeur d'Alene.
llnvfniian Committee to Meet Todnj.
Senator (Mitchell, chairman of the spe
cial committee appointed to visit Hawaii
during the recess, will call his colleagues
together tomorrow to formulate, a sched
ule for the trip.
"WHY RAMSAY" WAS LET OUT.
Accounts of Marshal of Idaho Con
tained Irregularities.
"WASHINGTON, July 2. The summary
dismissal of F. C. Ramsay, United States
Marshal for Idaho, who was a protege of
ex-Senator Shoup, was on account of Ir
regularities In rendering his (Ramsay's)
accounts. An examination of his books
In the main showed that Ramsay, at least
temporarily, had been using Government
funds for his private purposes. It is due
him to say all funds 6o appropriated were
repaid. The Government suffers no loss,
and there will be no criminal prosecution.
The President has also called for the
resignation of Assayer Cunningham, of
the Boise mint, because of reported Irreg
ularities In connection with the Perrault
case, but later developments showed him
Innocent, and the request was recalled.
COALING STATIONS ON PACIFIC.
Tiaxy Department Contemplates Es
tablishing Five.
"WASHINGTON, July 2. The Navy De
partment Is contemplating the establish
ment of five coaling stations on the Pa
cific Coast at San Diegp, San Francisco,
Puget Sound, Sitka and Dutch Harbor.
Representative Jones- today urged the
Equipment Bureau to expend a portion of
the lump appropriation for coaling sta
tions in fitting out an adequate station
at the Puget Sound navy-yard, and was
assured that if Secretary Moody would so
direct, the work would be undertaken at
once.
WILL BE LULL IX APPOINTMENTS.
Oregon Delegation May Settle At
torneyship Late in the Summer.
WASHINGTON, July 2.-Owlng to the
failure of the Oregon delegation to agree
it Is not probable that there will be any
further Important Oregon appointments
made for some time. The delegation will
be In different sections for a month or
more. It it possible that some compromise
on the United States Attorneyship and
other offices may be reached late in the
Summer.
Up to the adjournment yesterday the
postofflce committee had not acted on the
nomination of Fletcher E. Wilcox to be
postmaster at Wilcox, Or., and the ap
pointment falls. A recess appointment
will now be necessary.
TONGUE "STARTS FOR HOME.
Other Members of Oregon Delega
tion Have Not Decided on Plans.
WASHINGTON, July 2. Membero of the
Oregon delegation have not yet decided on
their plans for the Summer. Senator
Mitchell Is still in doubt .as to whether he
will go with the subcommittee to Hawaii,
but will certainly spend a part of July
in New England. He had originally In
tended to devote most of his time to Sena
torial business In Oregon. Representative
Tongue started for home today, and ex
pects to remain there most of the Sum
mer, while Representative Moody has not
laid any plans. He hopes to devoto a
part of the time in traversing portions
of Eastern Oregon with representatives of
the geological survey, who are to conduct
field operations thero this Summer.
.Senator Foster is planning an early re
turn to Tacoma, stopping a while in St.
Paul. His Summer will bo mostly spent
on the Hawaiian trip witti the subcom
mittee, but he hopes to return before the
campaign has advanced far. Both. "Wash
ington1 Representatives will remain at'
their homes the first part of the Summer
and prepare; for a vigorous campaign all
oyer the state in the Fall. ' f
Senator HeltfcM, of Idaho, goes home In
about a week, and has no plans arranged.
His colleagues, with a party of Demo
cratic Senators; will camp for some time
at Hunter Hot Springs, Mont., previous
to taking the stump. Representative Glenn
is now on his way home.
WHAT PRESENT MONEY. WHX DO.
Start "Work at the Dalles and Ease
Navigation to the Sea.
Appointment of a board of engineers
to examine Captain Harts plan and esti
mates for, the canal and locks at the
dalles of the Columbia, l& for the purpose
of ascertaining, with more definltenesa
than the Harts- report showed. Just what
the details of the project are and what
they will cost. This does not mean that
the Harts report was incomplete or unre
liable, so far as It went But It was
designed as a general statement rather
than a statement of details, and the esti
mates were correspondingly general In
their nature. "With approval of the gen
eral plan recommended by Captain Harts
comes the necessity for figuring out the
details with greater accuracy than was
essential for the purpose of his report.
And to this end It will be necessary to
carry the survey further In some respepts,
and to take observations of the river to
determine, for example, at what height
the miter sill should be placed, and other
features that must depend to a large
extent upon the habit of the stream.
It Is no reflection upon the engineer in
charge of the work of the district that
he Is not "upon the board appointed to
examine a project like this. Under the
present arrangement Captain Iangfltt, of
this district, has, in addition to his own
work, the duties that were formerly dis
charged by Captain Harts, and the double
load keeps him very busy. And it Is
usually deemed best to get the Judgment
of engineers who are not In any way
Identified with the work under examina
tion, for it Is purely a question of techni
cal engineering that they have to consider
and it Js desirable that all other matters
be kept out of it.
The appropriation available for the Im
provement at the dalles ia regarded as
sufficient to get the project well started,
perhaps all that could under any circum
stances be used Xo advantage before Con
gress shall have .another opportunity to
deal with the matter.
Improvement in engineering methods
are counted on to bring the cost of the
dalles improvement materially below the
estimate of Captain Harts. It has been
pointed out that the Improvement at the
cascades could now be made for much
less money than was actually necessary
at the time the plan was submitted. It
has been found that concrete will answer
as well as cut stone for a great deal
of such work, and this alone would effect
a large saving In money. Other advances
in engineering science constantly tend
to reduce the cost of such works as are
planned for thp dallfcs, and 1t is expected
that the estimates for the dalles wltf be
lessened for this and other reassne.
The appropriations for Improvement fef
navigation between Portland and the sea
contemplate carrying the work to practi
cal results without waiting for further
action of Congress, "When the present
Jetty was built It resulted in giving a
depth of 31 feet of water on the bar at
low tide. With the appropriation that
Aas been made it is expected that at least
as great a depth of water will be pro
duced on the bar, and that it will be
maintained for a much longer period
Indeed that the bar will never be permit
ted to get shallower again. Between
Portland and the mouth of the Columbia
the work now authorized is expected
to produce a channel that will let the
largest ships that come to Portland pass
freely at any stage of tide. There will
be dredges in sufficient number and of
sufficient capacity to Insure easy naviga
tion of the rivers for all the craft that
come here. But not all the details of
these Improvements will be available for
the public until the projects submitted
by Captain Langfltt shall have been
passed upon by the chief of engineers.

WORK OF THE SECRET SERVICE.
Chief Wilkie Submits His Annual
Report.
WASHINGTON. July 2. The armual re
port of Chief Wllkle of the Secret Service
Division, submitted today to Secretary
Shaw, shows that during the year there
were arrested 573 persons charged with
various offenses against the Federal stat
utes. New York leading with 8 prose
cutions. Of the offenders, 413 were, of
American birth, the next largest number
of offenders being Italians. Slxt -three
per cent of thole arrested were convicted.
During the fiscal year one dangerous
spurious noto was put in circulation, a
$5 silver certificate, while there was -only
one other even passable counterfeit, a. 1
silver certificate, whose makers, with their
complete plant, were captured in Chicago
the same day they attempted to put one
of their notes Into circulation.
In the New York district tho circulation
of "all silver" counterfeit coins has been
reduced more than SO per cent as com
pared with the previous yeats Reference
is made to the continued activity among
criminals who make the "raising1 of notes
a specialty and it Is pointed out that this
crime might be prevented by the adoption
of a distinctive size for the notes of small
er denominations the ones and twos to
be, ray, an Inch shorter and one-half an
inch narrower than those of five dollars
or over.
- Consnl Dickey Vindicated.
"WASHINGTON, July 3. United States
Consul William B. Dickey has been com
pletely vindicated of the charges brought
against him by Richard R. Neill, Secre
tary of Legation at Lima, as a result of
which he was relieved from his post at
Callao. Consul Dickey came to this, coun
try a few months ago on leave of absence.
When he arrived here he found that he
had been removxed from his post as a
result of Mr. NelU's charges, and that
Chiles Herdllska, ex-Secretary of Lega
tion at Vienna, had been nominated as
his" successor. Tho charges made by Mr.
Nclll included padding of expense ac
counts. Senator Frye, of whom Consul
Dickey Is a constituent, interested him
self In the case, and Dr. Hill, then Acting
Secretary of State, instituted x quiet In
vestigation, assisted by Chief Clerk
Michael, which resulted In entire exonera
tion of Mr. Dickey. As a result of hs
vindication, Mr. Dickey is to be reinstated
in the Consular service, and It is believed
that an arrangement can be made with his
successor at Callao allowing Mr. Dickey
to return to his old poBt, Mr. Herdllska be
ing provided for otherwise.
Ensltsh. Spoken la Kevr Mexico.
WASHINGTON. July 2. Delegate Rod
ney, of New Mexico, stated today that
the report of his testimony of June IS
before the Senate committee on territor
ies, relating to the omnibus statehood bill,
contained an error In that It made him
say that Interpreters were necessary in
conducting most of the public business,
as a majority of the people in New Mex
ico were unable to speak the English lan
guage. Mr. Rodney says that three-fifths
of the population' of the territory are
English-speaking people from the states
and their families; that a good one-half
of the remalnlng.two-flfths speak English
well, and that but a few counties in the
territory use Interpreters at all, and then
only because a portion of the population
speak Spanish alone. He stated that the
language of the territory is overwhelm
ingly English, and Is growing more so
ctery year.

today, "by appointment, had a conference:
with Messrs. Lodge, Hanna and Spooner,
the subject being the Isthmian canal act.
The discussion turned on the steps to be.
taken to give effect to that important

ARMS FROM AMERICA.
Chlaeiie Rebels Get Their Witr Muni
tions in This Country.
VICTORIA, B. oTJuly 2. The North
Chipa Dally News makes the assertion
that half of the arms and ammunition
In the hands of the Tebels were obtained
from Ame?lca, not a few having been
carried across tho United States borders
Into the Central and South American
Ftates and thenco shipped to Southern
China, The remainder of the modern
arms of precision owned by the rebels
were formerly the property of tho govern
ment and are hold by ex-regular troops,
A portlqn of whom forcibly retained their
arms whe,n they disbanded by orders
of the two Kwang governments, while
tho rest wore carried off by troopi who
mutinied and Joined their fellow-provln-clajs
through sympathy with the rebel
lion. These last are in arms for politi
cal purposes and steadfastly follow a
fixed purpose In conjunction with the
rebels proper. The former, or disbanded
soldiery, true to their marauding ln
fitlncts, are great cowards and merely
plunder and murder for the pleasure of
tho thing, making no distinction between
government officials, tradors or armed
Mbejs. The disbanded soldiery. In whose
ranks are Also the regular pirates and
brigands of the two Kwa'ng provinces,
when met with arc unhesitatingly at
tacked by the rebels proper and exter
minated as vermin.
The Pekln correspondent of the Nlchl
Nichl. of Toklo, says:
'Thc Governor of Kwang SI -has tele
graplwd secretly to the government that
the Catholic converts are supporting tho
rebels and supply them with arms and
ammunition. The rebels ostensibly de
clare that they are to protect converts
and merchants. The government has re
plied Instructing the governor to Institute
an immediate inquiry as, to whether
French subjects are supporting the rebels
apd to protest to tho rrench Consul If
this 1b found to be the case. The governor
of Kwang SI has also reported to the
government that the position of the
rebels has been growing stronger day by
day nnd that his troops are not strong
enough to restore order. The governor
asked the government to send strong re
inforcements. The government, after a
conciliation with Viceroy Yuan, decided
to send six companies of Chi L troops.

IN LINK WITH AMERICA.
England and Japan Take Onr Views
on Chinese Indemnity Question.
WASHINGTON, July 2. Thft State De
partment is somewhat encouraged, by ad
vices Just received from China, in its
hope that the powers will consent to less
vigorous measures lp the treatment of
China. It has been InTormed that Eng
land has consented to accept Its Indem
nity In silver or on the silver basis, which
Is In line with the contention of the Unit
ed States, and now it is understood Japan
will do likewise. These three powers In
accord may Influence the remaining sig
natories to the pending agreement to
award more liberal construction of the
clauiies relating to the rate of exchange
at which the Indemnity payments are to
be calculated.
Th situation at Tien Tsln Is also- im
proving, and it is now said that Russia,
Englahd and Japan have taken sides with
J the "United States in holding that the re
strictions imposed upon the Chinese oc
cupation of the town are far too severe
and should be Telaxcd. It Is confidently
expected that this view will prevail, and
that the powers will soon be able to effect
a, complete withdrawal from China, save
for the legation guards.
Attack on American Monopoly.
LONDON. July 2. Both tho moderate
and progressive sections of the London
County Council have combined to attack
the plans for London passenger trans
portation advanced by J. P. Morgan and
Charles T, Yerkes, with the view pf pre
venting or delaying parliamentary sanc
tion of the proposals made by the Amer
icans. Both these sections of the County
Council contend that once Parliament?
sanctions the projects In question, there
will be nothing to prevent the eventual
amalgamation of the Morgan-Yerkes in
terests, thus placing London at the mercy
pf a monopoly. Insomuch as the new
plans contain no public purchase clause.
It Is not expected that the Council's op
position, will be very effective, because it
will have po alternative plan to offer.

HEARDTHETROOPStHER
INDIAN- CONTINGENT MARCHES
PAST SiqK .KING'S PAIlAE."
Reviewed -by Prince of Wales and
Queen A'lexa'ndra Physicians Is
sue Favorable Bulletins.
LONDON. July 2. King Edward has
passed another good day. The quiet 'and
routine of the sickroom was varted today
by the excitement of listening- to the
muaic and cheers of the Indian troops as
they marched past the palace and greeted
Queen Alexandra on the balcony. Kins
Edward demanded a full account of trie
review, and "the formal report made by
the Prince of Wales was supplemented by
the personal narrative of the Queen. His
Majesty dictated a letter to the Duko of
Connaught, commanding him to compli
ment the colonial troops upon their ex
cellent appearance, and, to thank them for
their expressions 61 loyalty and sympa
thy, which he had heard with pleasure
In his sickroom: King Edward was
somewhat disappointed that he was not
able to see the march past of the troops.
He had hoped that this would be, possible
from an Invalid couch Jn a window of the
palace, but the doctors were unwilling
that he should risk this exposure and ex
citement, and His Majesty had to con
tent himself with hearing the troops
without seeing them.
The review was largely a repetition of
yesterday's function, but the varied col
oring of the uniforms of representative
corps from all parts of Hindustan formed
an altogether more picturesque spectacle.
Queen Alexandra was ajaln the central
figure of the proceedings, and the public
welcomed the opportunity to testify once
more Its sympathy with her on account
of her'redeht anxiety, and its 'congratu
lations on the good news regarding King
Edward's condition.
The review procedure of yesterday was
followed. About 1300 dark-skinned troops,
headed by a detachment of the bodyguard
of the Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon, of
Kedleston, reached tho Horse Guards'
Parade to the strains of Sousa's "Hands
Across tho Sea.' The members of the
royal family who reviewed the colonials
yesterday traversed the lines of the sol
diers of the Indian Empire. The Prince
pf Wales, representing the King, stand
ing by the side of his mother's caninge,

IRISH EVICTIONS.
Heated Debate in Commons Precipi
tated hy a Liberal Member.
LONDON. Julv 2. A loner anil heater!
debate on the Irish question was pre
cipitated in the House of Commons today.
Thomas W. Russell, Liberal, moved tho
adjournment of the House to discuss tho
pending evictions from the estate of Lord
De Frayne, in Roscommon County, In
connection with which that noblemdn had
writs Issued against several membera of
the Irish Parliamentary party, whom ho
charged with conspiracy. Mr. Russell
declared that unless the government In
tervened to prevent these evictions, an
era of turmoil would be Inaugurated in
the west of Ireland, where there was
trouble endugh already. He said that he
had visited the De Frayne estate three
times and that he was thoroughly con
vinced of the injustice under which tho
tenants suffered. The people there -were
the poorest of the poor. He believed one
word from Mr. Wyndham, the Chief
Secretary for Ireland, would settle the
whole trouble, and he thought the reduc
tion of the rents collected on the estate
by 33 per cent would not be excessive for
those bog lands, which were now renting
for more money than was, obtained for
decent arable lands in Ulster County.
Mr. Wyndham responded with some
asperity that he was surprised to find
Mr. Russell siding against law and order.
The rents from theDe Frayne estate, ho
said, hail been reduced 37 per cent In the
past 20 years, and he knew that some of
the organisers were making money out of
tho agitation. His advice to the tenants
Was to pay up. This statement was
greeted with groans from the Irish mem
bers. Hundreds had done so, said Mr.
Wyndham, and this remark was received
with conservative cheers. Many more
would like to pay, the Chief Secretary
added, but they were Intimidated. Mr.
Wyndham said It was Impossible to carry
out the-land purchase scheme in Ireland
when It was Interrupted by agitators who
desired to mako government there Impos
sible. John Redmond, the Nationalist leader
In the House, characterized Mr. Wynd
ham's statement as paltry and flippant.
He declared that whatever money was
paid In rentals on te De Frayne estate
wa3 earned hi the mala population work
ing In England during the harvest season,
and he contended that the government was
directly responsible for the happenings on
the De Frajne property.
After other members of the House had
spoken on the subject, Mr. Russell's mo
tion for an adjournment was defeated by
231 votes to 152.

"I suffered for years with liver complaint causing me severe pains
and a peculiar weakness across the small of my back, so that it was
hard to stoop, and sometimes ycry painful to. walk about. I had used
so much medicine without deriving any help that I just let It go, until a
neighbor was cured by Pcruna. That led to my using It, and before I
had used ten bottles I was cured. I consider it almost miraculous."
