liberations of the House today.
After the reading of the Journal, Rich

that the action of yesterday was void.
The Speaker ruled that It was regular.
He said In his ruling that It has been
repeatedly held that Sunday could be
made a legislative day. There had as a
fact been no legislation at yesterday's
session.
By unanimous consent the House simply
permitted the filing of the conference re
port under the rule. The House when In
session at any time, he stated, was omnip
otent, except for the limitations of the
Constitution.
Richardson protested against the ruling
as a dangerous precedent, and moved to
correct the Journal so as to strike out
the action of yesterday. Eleven Repub
licans voted -with the Democrats for this
motion, but it was defeated on a rising
vote of SO to S3.
Richardson demanded the ayes and noes,
and the roll was called. The motion was

House had Just stricken from the Journal
the record of the action of the House yes

crease the salaries of Federal Judges was
agreed, to.

' DANISH SALE SOT VET OFF.
Denmark Has Until Jane to Ratify
Treaty 'of Cession.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 9. The Govern
aent here does not regard the question
of the cession of the Danish' West Indies
.as closed by any means. It Is said that
.certainly the negotiations have not been
closed by any act of the United States.
.and if Denmark, has halted In the transfer
It was from international considerations.
The conditions which caused the dehiy can
"nent.
"Technically-the'' tTnlted-States) has ne
gotiated a treaty with Denmark for the
cession of the Islands, and not until next.
June 'will the period or time allowed lor
the exchange of ratifications expire. At
any time before that date the Danish
government la free to ratify the treaty,
and as this has already been done by the
United States Senate, the negotiations
would close with success.
The Administration has practically as
sured Itself that the treaty could not be
again ratified by the Senate as It stands,
owing to objections to Its form rather
than to the principle Involved, and this
probably will be the last opportunity Den
mark will have to affect the sale under
these conditions.

President EllotSays Educated Peo
ple Donjt Keep Increasing.
BOSTON, Feb. 9. In his annual report
to the Harvard Board of Overseers, made
public. President Eliot declared Harvard's
policy to be one of determined support to
the requirements of a bachelor's degree or
Its equivalent for admission to the pro
fessional schools, as now in force in the
departments of theology, law and medi
cine at Harvard, and to an even higher
standard than has hitherto been set for
the degree of a B. M.
After giving statistics to show "that the
highly educated part of the American
people does not increase the population
at all, but on the contrary falls to repro
duce Itself, President Eliot says:
"It Is probable that the regrettable re
sult Is due In part to the late postpone
ment of marriage on the part of the edu
cated young men a postponement which
the protracted education now prescribed
for men who enter the learned and scien
tific professions makes almost unavoid
able." On athletic sports In general' President
Eliot says there Is increasing objection to
their great exaggeration.

f In the Senate yesterday Cannack
rpoke on the Ratrllns resolution calling
upon the Secretary of "War for reports
of ctrtaln courts-martial. lie renewed
the charge that American soldiers had
commltteed murder and torture In the
Philippines.
Kean vpoke on the statehood, bill for
a short time, when he yltlded to vari
ous Senators, who Indulged In debate
on the question of the Interference of
the Mormon Church In politics.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 3.-Carmack
(Tenn.) today addressed the Senate on tho
Rawlins resolution, calling- for the records
of courts-martial of officers serving In tho
Philippines. The best army that ever trod
AND M. GIRON.
AFTER THEIR ELOPEMENT.
the earth, Carmack declared, could bo
8ent t0 a distant tropical land, but when
11 became known that crimes will go un-
punished awful consequences will ensue.
Just these consequences have existed, he
said. The charges have been met with
stoical and cynical Indifference. He as
serted that there was an organized sys
tem of torture in the Philippines.
"It Is a further fact." said Mr. Car
mack, "that though this 'was notorious
throughout the whole Army, it was con
tinued for months and years. No effort
was made to suppress it, and no single
torturer was ever punished for the crime.
It Is a fact that men of high character
and standing, the representatives of the
leading Republican newspapers, went in
person to tho Commanding General and
told him that they had not only seen a
perfect orgy of looting and plunder, but
that they had seen wounded prisoners
butchered before their very eyes, and.
though he did not deny It, Ignored it.
"It Is further true that this fact was
brought to the attention of the Secretary
of War in a letter over the signature of
Robert M. Collins, the chief agent and rep
resentative of the Associated Press In the
Philippines, and you did not suggest the
propriety oi an inquiry or any invest!
gallon."
Murders by American soldiers In the
field had become too common, he said, to
bear Investigation, which answer ecems
entirely satisfactory to "our noble and
generous and humane Secretary of War.""
Courts-martial In the Philippines had
been a travesty on Justice, he said, and
he cited the Case of Lieutenant Preston
Brown, whom he charged with murdering
an unarmed and unresisting native FlllDl
no, and whose sentence of five years had
been mitigated by the President to a nom
inal fine and slight reduction In rank.
To every wicked, vlcloua and depraved
ruffian in the Army, he said the order of
General Jacob smith to kill and burn In
Samar meant that thefe was no law, no
restraint and no punishment, and yet the
President calmly surveyed the ruin he
has wrought, "and, like another great Im
perialist, no is astonished at his own mod
eration." He inquired how It happened
that the President who had declared his
intention to probe crimes in the Philippines
never beard of the Captain Brownell case
when Father Augustin was tortured until
ne died.
The President. In a speech while Gov
ernor of New York, had raid that our In
difference to the welfare of the people of
Alaska had made them prefer annexation
to Great Britain, and the same condition
would result if we showed like indiffer
ence In tho Philippines. He declared the
lanpmos were starving. The same vigi
lance tnat enames the President to dls
cover them "as enjoying the greatest pros
penty," be saia, "should cause hint to
see tnat tney are starving."
"Time," he said in conclusion, "will
demonstrate the folly of this tiii!ne."
and he hoped it would find some euro for
-tne oiunoer we have made."
The resolution then went over and the
statehood bill was taken un. Kean fN. 3A
continuing his remarks In opposition to
tne measure.
Rawlins, answering some references of
Kean to the Mormons, said that in Salt
Lake City the non-Mormons are clad to
aid In electlngMormons to important po
litical unices oecauso oi tneir desire to
give to the municipality good government.
certain elements in the church, he sold
by reason of long habit, were disposed to
yield to the dictates of prominent individ
uals in tne cnurcn.
"It Is not to be denied that their Influ
ence ts very considerable' said he. "hut
there is still a large element among; the
.Mormons wno resent tne idea of such in?
terference."
Mr. Kean said the people of the United
States are opposed to polygamy, and mean
in any way to stamp It out.
Answering Nelson, Kean said that the
Mormons who fled from Idaho to Mexico
undoubtedly would return to the United
States and mix In the politics of Arizona
and attempt to usurp the public authority
of that state should it be admitted.
"Hale interrupted to remark that every
time' this phase of the subject is reached
It presents some new Information, and be
fore anything further. Is done he thought
somebody should submit amendments lh
order to have an expression of the feel
ing or tne senate on this subject and bring
It determinedly before the Senate for its
action.
Kean sdld he would offer on amendment
of this kind.
In the course of Kean's remarks Pat
terson Interrupted to read from a speech
made by the President at Las Vegas. N.
M., upon the occasion of the Rough Rid
ers' reunion, in which ho is said to have
favored the admission of New Mexico as
a state and to have declared that ha
would go to Washington and work for
such a bill.
Kean declared that this did not put him
on record as favoring the omnibus bill.
Patterson thoueht the President, belne
then a distinguished Republican leader,
having enthusiastically pledged himself In
favor of New Mexico's admission, oppo
sition to the omnibus bill should vanish.
Elklns read the Republican and Demo
cratic platforms and praised the Demo
crats for trying to keep their pledges,
while the Republicans, he saldJiad not
been ablo to keep faith or discharge their
obligations with respect to statehood. El
klns declared that tho National conven
tions interpret, the wishes of political par
ties, and not those of Individual Senators
Thirty-three Democrats and 17 or IS Re
publicans, he said, favored the omnibus
bill, while S3 Republicans opposed it. and
he wanted to show that tho minority was
obstructing tho passage bf the bill.
Elklns yielded to Hoar, wno presented
the conference report on the act fixing
salaries of certain Judges of the United
States courts. The report was agreed to.
Clar (Ga.) declared an injustice was
being done the people of Arizona and
New Mexico on account the statement
made regarding their Mormon population.
At the present time, he said, there arc
about 1300 Mormons In New Mexico and
GOO In Arizona, while, according to the
census of 1S90. Idaho had H.972 and Utah
11S.201. He declared It was wrong to"
charge the people of 'New Mexico with

said, they would present the Identical leg
islation prepared by tnem in is. occmr

owing to frequent Interruptions, did not

WAR HAS BEEN DECLARED
Central American Republics All In
volved In Straggle.
Tivnns'. Feb. ldiThe Dally Mall this
morning publishes, a dispatch from Guate
mala declaring that war has been pro
claimed between Guatemala on one side
and San Salvador andHondurao on the
other.
According to previous dispatches from
Panama, Guatemala and baivaaor were
on tho point of war at the beginning of
this month. The saivaaorean ana uuam-
malan armies, commanded by their re
spective Presidents, Generals Regaledo
and Cabera, were on the frontier, accom
panied by revolutionary retugees. iroops
were constantly leaving the capital of
Salvador, San Salvador, for the Guate
malan frontier.
Nicaragua was actively helping oenerai
Rcgalado. President of Salvador. The
Nlcaraguan cruiser Momotombo had land
ed at Acajutla, Salvador, 1500 rifles and
300,000 rounds of ammunition, which Presi
dent Zelaya, of Nicaragua, had sent tor
the Guatemala revolutionists. Honduras
also was said to be acting with Salvador
and Nicaragua In opposition to Guatemala.
It seemed that the movement, according
to Panama dispatches, was the outcome of
the Congress of the Central American Re
publics at Corlnto. Nicaragua, last year,
at which a treaty was drawn up and sub
sequently signed, providing for arbitra
tion of every disagreement among me
republics. While the Congress was ber
lnir held, a serious misunderstanding oc
curred between President Regalado, of
Salvador, and President Cabera, of Guat
emala. It was announced from. San Jose,
Costa Rica. October 4. that the Central
American Court of Compulsory Arbitration
had been Installed there, but that Guate
mala had refused to participate.
The movement on the part of Salvador,
Nicaragua and Honduras, was reported to
bo aimed against Guatemala In conse
quence of their attitude at the Corlnto
Congress, and against Costa Rico, which
is supposed to sympathize with Guate
mala. Central American Union would ba
the ostensible object of tho war, the real
motive of which, according to Panama
advices, was that the Presidents of Salva
dor, Nicaragua and Honduras wished to
follow Mexico's precedent, and establish
a federation of republics of tho Central
American states.
The Central American situation Is furth
er complicated by the Intervention of
Guatemela on one side and Nicaragua and
Salvador on the other In the election of
President of Honduras. Guatemala is in
favor of ' the President-elect. Manuel
Bonllla. while Nicaragua and Salvador in
sist that the retiring President of Hon
duras, General Sierra, shall continue In
the Presidency. The latter has refused to
give up the Presidential post, and Senor
Bonllla has declared a civil war. Senor
Bonllla has taken his stand on Amalpa
Island and has raised a forco to maintain
his claim to the Presidency. A dispatch
from the united states consul at Tegucl

STONED BY THE CHINESE
Americans Suffer From Renewed
Outbreak of Boxer Fury.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9.-Previous re
ports ot a threatened outbreak In China
against Caucassian residents is confirmed
by several persons who have Just arrived
here from the Orient
Dr. James Young, surgeon of the steam
er China, David Austin and G. J. Kava-
naugh are among tnose wno give ac
counts of the menacing attitude of the
Boxers.
Dr. Young, accompanied by Austin and
an American engineer, and under the di
rection of a. Chinese guide, went to Can
ton when the steamer China was at
Hong Kong. Once within the gates of
the Walled City, the party was beset by
a rabble and was met with demands for
money. At the outset the Chinese were
complacent, but the moment the tourists
refused their request for coin, the Mon
gollans hurled stones at the visitors and
drove them In terror to the five-story pa
goda, where they were temporarily free
from molestation. However, when the
Americans emerged from the pagoda,
they were again pursued by the mob.
which became bolder and more defiant,
and finally hurled missiles of every de
scription at Dr. Youns and his party. A
great stone sfruck Dr. Young in the back'
ot the neck and rendered him unconscious.
The mob had almost overpowered the
Americans when Dr. Young revived, and
the three left the walled city with all
possible speed.
Mr. Kavanaugh declares the center ot
the Impending revolution is in Southern
China and not in the Ivortlv where the
last outbreak-occurred.
"The movement Is being planned care
fully. "Many Americans Vho were in the
Philippines have Kone to China and are
engaged in drilling and training the Chi
nese. It Is my belief that the uprising will
take place at a not far distant date."

POLICY OF DEMOCRACY.
Hamlin Defines It at llnnn.net
Memory of Tilden.
In
NEW YORK. Feb. 9. A banquet In
celebration ot the anniversary of the
birth of Samuel J. Tilden was held at the
the Tilden Club tonight. About 100 per
sons were present. Among the speakers"
were Charles- S. Hamlin, of Boston As
sistant Secretary of the Treasury under
rccamci tievcjuuu, uiiu .juaciju iv. cum,
District Attorney ot St. Louis. Mr. Ham
lin slid in part:
"The great questions over which tho
coming fight for the Presidency will be
waged are: First, the foreign policy of
the Administration: second, the treatment
of trusts and monopolies; third, tariff re
form; fourth, economy In government ad
ministration. "Tho great question whether the Phil
ippines are ultimately to be admitted as
territories or be given independence is
now before us for settlement I believe
thit a majority of Democrats are ot the
opinion that they, should be given com
plete Independence at an early date.
t'Thft proper regulation of Industrial
combinations known as trusts is also be
fore the people and many bills have been
Introduced which under, the guise of regu
lation would practically amount to such
control over state corporations as to wipe
out state lines and establish a centralized
form of government not unlike that of
France. I believe the first step should
bo radically to review our system ot
tariff fixation to the end that foreign
competition may come In to take tho
place of that domestic competition which
is being destroyed. Then, by examining
the effect of foreign competition, we shall
soon find what additional legislation is
needed to control monopolies. Meanwhile
tho Federal Government should enforce
existing law and provide new legislation
to secure information as to what these
combinations are doing."
Mr. Folk discussed the quesUon of of
ficial corruption and declared, that, If
Samuel J. Tilden were now alive, he
would find a situation vastly worse than
that he contended against In the days of
the Tweed ring;.

IPATENTCUREALL
: THEIR USE INVARIABLY DANGEROUS AND ERE-
j " QUENTLY DISASTROUS.
When any person uses a patent:ure-all as a means of self-
doctoring for any particular disease, latarrh, lung trouble, stom-
ach disease, rheumatism or any other chronic ailment or malady,
he Is making a serious mistake. He Is assuming the risk of tak-
Ing Into his system drugs of whose effect he Is totally Ignorant,
J and which have been prepared in almost every Instance, by a flc
v titlous doctor certainly by one who knew nothing of the suf-
ferer's state of health or of the medicinal requirements of the
case. He Is simply going It blindfolded, and whether or not he
a commit suicide, he Is guilty of a blunder and a folly, that Is Incx-
' cusable In this age of general education.
It has been claimed that It is the great cost of expert medical
, services that has encouraged the sale of these cure-alls, but un-
der the nominal fee system In vogue at the Copeland Institute,
2 all Invalids and all needing medical attention, are fully protected
from the evil. With expert individual treatment In each Individ
o ual case, at a fee rate limited to $5.00 a month, Including all
2 medicines and appliances, there Is no longer either temptation.
or necessity to tamper with secret nostrums.
Health Shattered I
Through Failure of
"Patent Cure-Alls"
to Give Relief.
Mr. Cnrrett D. Coates, 012 Petty
grove street, corner of Nineteenth,
Portland, was a sufferer for many
years from catarrh, complicated by
stomach and liver trouble, and, as is
often done under similar circumstances,
he undertook to "doctor" himself, tak
ing all kinds of patent medicines and
advertised "cure-alls." He not only
fa!ledto get benefit from these reme
dies, but grew steadily worse until
Mr. Garrett D..Coatea. 012 Petty-
crove St., I'ortlnnci.
his health seemed hopelessly shat
tered. Mr. Coates relates his experi
ence In tho following language: '
"My health was very. bad for six or
seven years, but until I was told by
the Copeland physicians that the root
of my trouble was catarrh. I had no
Idea what the nature of my ailment
was, but did know that I was a
Very Miserable Sinn.
I seemed to have cold all the time and
a racking cough. I could not sleep at
night on account of the cough and
spitting. There was a discharge from
the nose and dropping back, in the
throat. I had
Sharp Pains
through the eyes and dull headache,
with a ringing and buzzing In the ears.
- "My stomach was In such a "sensi
tive and irritated condition that even
the plainest" kind of food caused me
great distress. I
Almost Starred
myself, living principally on mush and
milk, yet at the same time suf
fered excruciatingly. After eating
there was a
Sickness at the Stomach,
and often a great weakness, and al
ways sharp pains and a craving.
"There was a great tenderness in the
right side and region of the liver. My
tongue was coated' and I had
Dizziness nnd Floating Specks,
before the eyes. My bowels were in
very bad condition.
"My entire system seemed to bo
poisoned, causing a redness and ter
rible Itchlngr of the. Skin.
This added greatly to my suffering,
OFFICERS KIDNAP WATERS
Alleged Manila Embezzler Is Ilnstled
Aboard Oriental Liner.
VICTORIA. B. C.. Feb. 9. Unable to
extradite Alex W. "Waters, alias W. A.
Wilson, who Is wanted at Manila on a
charge of embezzling $SO0O, and who was
arrested at (Montreal some days ago.
United States Special gents D. R. Dwyer
and C. E. Heron kidnaped him on board
the Oriental liner Athenian, which sailed
from here tonlsht.
"Waters, it is alleged, decamped with
$3000 and went to Hong Kong; where he
took passage on the Shlnano Maru. He
left the steamer at Mojl, and went by
train to Yokohama, whence he camo to
"Victoria on the Athenian. The dectec
tlves missed him here,, owing- to the de
scriotlon being faulty, but, learning that
he had telegraphed to a sister at Mon
treal, they telegrapMed to the police to
hold him ' there. In Montreal he was
brought before the courts and waived extradition.-
The United States and Canada have no
extradition treaty with the Philippines,
an on this being shown at "Washineton,
a treaty was prepared and was to have
been signed today by President Roosevelt.
However, In order to avoid legal proceed
ings. Waters was held by the detectives
and allowed to see no lawyers. He was
quietly hurried to Washington and thence
via Chicago and St. Paul to Seattle, where
ho was placed In Jail for the night and
brought to Victoria this afternoon, he
being told that he w'ould be able to catch
the San Franctsco-bound steamer Senator
hero and go to San Francisco.
Instead of "the Senator he found ajt tho
dock tha steamer on which he arrived
here from the Orient, and was qulckh
hustled on board by the officers and held
fast until the steamer pulled out.
Tho prevailing gales caused a postpone
ment of the steamer's salllnc until to
morrow. Waters will be kept. In close
confinement and put aboard early In the
morning.
