Commissioner Instead of a Deleiate.

Feb." 25. Representative Moody
today called at the "War Department, at
the request of the Portland Chamber, of
Commerce, to urge early approval of the
report of the Board of Engineers of the
Columbia River bar project. He was In
formed that the report had been approved
by the Chief of Engineers, and was now
before the Secretary of War awaiting
final action. The attorneys representing
L. M. Haupt, the author of the rejected
reaction Jetty project scheme, have re
quested, the Secretary to give them an

CAJf'T EXCEL, THE OREGOJf.
Senate Xuvnl Committee Totes for
Ships of Her Type.'
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Feb. The Senate nava com
mittee believes, with Senator Hale, that
the battleship Oregon represents the most
perfect type of warship afloat today, and
accordingly o-ertums the House pro
gramme for on Increased Navy and au
thorizes the building of four new ships
of the Oregon type rather than the heavier
battleships provided for In the House
hill. The Senate programme Is smaller
battleships and more of them, the House
in Its bill having prpvlded for two large
battleships.
When the bill passes the Senate and
goes to, conference, there Is strong proba
bility of the Senate provision being re
tained, or at least the authorization of
two o more ships of the Oregon type.
Senator Hale says there Is no more- per
fect warship In existence today than the
Oregon, and tho country cannot do bet
ter than to add others of the same clasz
to t- Navy as soon' as possible.
FIGHT FOR ALASKA DELEGATE.
Senate Bill for Commissioner Will
Win Other Alaakn Bills.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
'Ington. Feb. 26. If time Is found In the
Senate for the consideration of the Alaska
Commissioner bill reported yesterday In
lieu of Cushman's delegate bill. It Is prob
able that measure will be accepted by the
House after a conference. The Houso
conferees would first stand out for the
elective delegate bill, but the strong sen
timent In the Senate against & delegate
and the preference of many House mem
bers for a Commissioner appointed by the
President will, in the end secure the adop
tion of the Senate bill.
Even the friends of the delegate bill are
willing to accept the Senate bill rather
than deny Alaska representation In Con
'gress altogether. A Commissioner would
have practically all the powers of a dele
gate, and could accomplish as much. The
Senate -Is opposed more to elections than
to a delegate, but the fact that Alaska has
not been accorded territorial government
Is to some Senators a good reason for
opposing the term "delegate."
3. W. Ivey, who several days ago an
nounced that be and the people of Alaska
.prefer no representation In Congress rath
er than a Commissioner, today secured
through Representative Sulzer the Intro
duction of a bill duly constituting Alaska
a territory, and giving It a government
similar to that now In operation in. New,
Mexico and Arizona. His bill provides for
.ff, Governor and all territorial officers, and
for a full-fledged delegate In Congress.
The bill, of course, cannot even be consid
ered In .committee at this late .day. Ivey
anticipates the defeat of. the bill now be
fore the Senate, but In the event that it
passes, Ae will endeavor to defeat It In
conference.
At the request of Ivey, a bill was also
inirooucca oy outzer authorizing the
'North American Telegraph & Cable Com
pany to lay a telegraphic cable from a
point on the Alaskan coast to some point
In Siberia. The company has been Incor
porated under the laws of Washington,
its stockholders being Northwestern men.
Ivey says the Russian government would
.readily give Its consent for the landing of
the cable. If the bill should pass.
There were some signs today of a break
up of the conference committee having In
.charge the Alaska homestead bllL Two of
the three Senate members are favorable
to the House contention for a commuta
tion clause and the permission to make
script locations. The public lands com
mittee of the Senate still Insists that the
two provisions In controversy shall be
dropped, but pressure is being brought to
bear to forco them to recede. The House
conferees are more confident than ever
before that they will win.
DEFECTS IX ALDHICH BILL.
Banker Says It Would Depreclnte
Government Hondiu.
OREGONIAN" NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Feb. 21 Senator Aldrich has not
been able to see hla way clear to secure
a vote upon his currency MIL and nrore
or less opposition is developing us it Is
dlscuaeed, and some amendments seem to
be absolutely necessary.
Representative Pugslcy, of New York,
who la a banker and a member of the
House committee on banking and cur
rency, has given a great deal of attention
to currency legislation. He does not
wholly agree with the Fowler bill, nor
does he accept the Aldrich bill. He lias
given the best explanation of the lat
ter measure and Its effect In an Inter
view, in which he says:
I am in favor of the main proposition
of the Aldrich bill, but there are certain
provisions that I would criticise and which
I think would be unwise to enact into law.
If tho bill was so amended' that United
States bonds, when dcsposlted as security
for public funds, mlglit be exempted from
the Interest charge, or banks pledging
them as security relieved from holding
reserve against deposits. It would, to my
mind, be better and proper legislation.
Tho elimination of Government bonds
Be a basis for public funds, which this
Mil would accomplish, would, in my opin
ion, be unfortunate, as It would take
away one of the conditions which make
these bonds valuable to the banks. The
fact that Government bonds may be used
both as u basis for circulation and depos
its has enhanced their value, and It one
of these conditions Is removed, they will
undoubtedly depreciate largely.
If the bill becomes a law without
amendment, as I have mentioned, about
$150.0001000 of Government bonds now held
as security for public deposits will un
doubtedly be thrown upon the market,
because the banks could not afford to pay
1H per cent Interest upon deposits If these
bonds were a basis of security.
It would seem to me of some Interest
to the Government and to the people of
the United States that If additional bonds
are to bo placed for the building of an
Isthmian canal, the 2 per cent bonds
should not be forced to sell below par.
Wc have taken Just pride In the fact that
United States securities or bonds have
sold at better price than those of any
other country In the world, but. If the
Aldrich illl Is enacted without amend
ment, we shall undoubtedly find that
United States bonds will sell on much the
same basis as English consols, unless
their being used as a basis of circulation
shall maintain their price, which. In my
opinion, is hardlv to be expected.
The effect, of the measure will be to In
crease the price of municipal and railroad
bonds and dppreclate Government securi
ties, and will be greatly in the Interest ot
certain railroads In the placing of their
bonds, as they will naturally be sought
for the purposes of the bill. I believe that
the Secretary of the Treasury should be
authorized to deposit public funds upon
the pledee of such securities, and that the
banks shall pny Interest on such deposits.
If such securities are pledged at not less
than 1 per cent, but I do not think It
would be wise or conservative legislation
to force the Government bonds from all
Consideration as a basis for public moneys.
WILL PASS AT EXTRA SESSION.
If Morftmn Wins This Session, Canal
Treaty Will Win Then.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Feb. 26. The fight continues
against the Panama Canal treaty, and
Morgan Is determined to defeat It at this
esslonof Congress. He is being aided
by men who are known to oppose the
Cuban treaty, and there Is a probability
that both will go over for a special ses
sion of the Senate, but they will be rati
fied then, or at least a vote will be taken
upon them, and, from a close canvass ot
the Senate, both will pass In the special
session.

QUESTION OF LEGALITY
MAY AFFECT APPOIXTME.XT OF
LODGE ASiD TURNER.
Senators DIacnsa Point on Slonetary
Conference Appropriation Demo
crats Raise Trout Issue In Vain.
The advisability and legality of the
appointment by the President ot Sena
tors and members of the House on com
missions formed the subject of consid
erable discussion In the Senate today.
Tb sundry civil bill was under consid
eration, and Hale, having In mind the
amendment authorlzlns the appoint
ment of an International monetary com
mlsrton, started the debate by calling
attention to the facti that the Senate
had reprobated the policy of appoint
ment of Senators on commissions, and
on one occasion had refused to confirm
two such appointments. It was made
clear that co reflection was Intended on
Lodre and Turner, who have been se
lected as members of the Alaskan
boundary commission. The bill was
passed, after a number of amendments
had been added.
The Senate went Into executive ses
sion at 1:40 p. M., and devoted the re
mainder of the day to the Panama
Canal treaty.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26,-Soon after the
Senate met Hale (Me.) reported the naval
appropriation bill, and gave notice that
he would call It up tomorrow.
Burrows, chairman of the committee on
privileges and elections, filed an additional
protest against the admission of Reed
Smoot as a Senator from Utah.
Consideration ot the sundry civil bill
was then resumed. The Senate reconsid
ered its vote on the amendment providing
for the construction of an office build
ing for the House ot Representatives, and
agreed to the same. An amendment was
agreed to directing the superintendent ot
the Capitol to prepare estimates ot cost
for a separate office building tor the Sen
ate. An amendment by Fairbanks appropri
ating $2,000,000 for the purchaee ot a site
for the postofflce In New York City was
agreed to.
The amendment of the committee on
appropriations striking out the provision
for the extension ot the Capitol was
agreed to.
An amendment was agreed to appropri
ating K0.W to ba used by the President
In opening negotiations with Great Britain
looking to a review of the regulations
adopted by the Paris tribunal of arbitra
tion to govern pelagic sealing.
An amendment was also agreed to In
creasing tho appropriation tor the ex
penses of tha Alaskan boundary commis
sion to noo.ooo.
Hale (Me.) referred to the amendment
providing tor an international commis
sion to fix the parity of gold and sliver
and called attention to the practice, which,
he said, the Senate deprecates, of ap
pointing on these commissions members
of the Senate. This led to an extended
argument In which -views on both tides
of the question were made. Tillman of
fered an amendment providing that no
Senators or members of the House shall
be appointed to such commissions. The
debate on the motion was participated In
by Allison. Teller and Hoar.
At 1 o'clock the statehood bill, the -unfinished
business, was laid before the
Senate, and Quay asked that a vote be
taken on It either today or tomorrow.
Beveridge objected.
Consideration ot the sundry civil bill
was then resumed. Tillman's amendment
was declared out of crder on an objec.
tlon by McComas.
Hansbrough (N. D.) offered an amend-
GATLIXG.
ment prohibiting the, sale of Intoxicating
liquors In the capital. It went out on
a point of order by Allison.
An amendment was adopted appropriat
ing 25,000 to enable the Commissioner of
Labor to furnish statistics relating to
marriages and divorces in the several
states and territories since January 1. 1SS7.
The bill was then passed. It includes
the appropriation of $200,000 to ex-Queen
LlluokalanL
Cullom then moved an executive ses
sion. Blackburn (Ky.) announced that
In accordance with Instructions unani
mously given htm by the Democratic cau
cus, he desired the Llttlefleld anti-trust
hill taken up. The chair held that the
only way in which this could be done
would be by a, vote of the Senate. Hoar
desired to offer a conference report on
the bill for the protection ot the Presi
dent, and there followed a discussion of
precedence. The chair decided that
Hoar's motion took precedence over the
motion for an executive session. Hoar
said he did not desire to press the con
ference report and would 'withdraw It.
The Senate then went Into executive ses
sion. At E:45 o'clock the doors were reopened.
Hoar presented the conference report on
the bill to pretect tho President, and It
went over until tomorrow. The Senate at
6:55 P. M. adjourned.
MORGAK OJC CAXAL TREATY.
Continues Speech Despite Constant
Attempts to Do Olhcr.Thlnss.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 26,-After Senitor
Morgan had been speaking about three
quarters of an hour, the absence of a.
quorum was suggested. The rolIcalL how
ever, sufficed to bring In the necessary
number, and business proceeded.
Senator McCumbcr, of North Dakota,
moved for an open session, but his mo
tion was voted down, IS to 40. His object
In making tho motion was to try to se
cure reconsideration ot the adoption of
the report of the conference committee on
the Indian appropriation bill, which tho
Senate accepted yesterday. During the
session Senator McCumber two or three
times repeated his motion for an open
session, and. falling each time to secure a
majority vote In support of the motion,
gave formal notice of a motion to recon
sider the vote by which the conference
report on the Indian appropriation bill
was agreed to, which will have the effect
of holding the papers In the Senate until J
tne vote snail be taken.
Senator Blackburn, during the executive
session, stated that hereafter he would
object to any unanimous agreements to
vote on measures until he could be as
sured that a vote could be had on a mo
tion to consider the anti-trust bill. Sen
ator Hale responded by saying that he
did not think that position could be main
tained, but Senator Blackburn assured
him that it would be.
Senator Hoar spoke of his desire to
bring up the conference report on the bill
for. tho protection of the President, ani.
after encountering some opposition, at
last moved to go into legislative session
for the purpose of presenting the report.
The motion prevailed. 29 to 20.
Senator Morgan ceased his speech in
opposition to the treaty almost an hour
before the opening of the doors. He was
not well and was excused on that ac
count. STORM IN THE HOUSE.
(Continued from First Pace.)
said Richardson. "That Is our Constitu
tional right," Tho Democratic side rose
en .masse in support of his demand, and
the Speaker directed the clerk to call the
roll. Payne's motion was. carried, 232 to 1.
The next business In order was the read
ing of the Journal. At tho conclusion of
the reading, Payne moved Its approval,
but Richardson demanded the reading of
the bills and resolutions introduced yes
terday. The Speaker, said that, while It
had not been the practice to do this. It
demanded he would direct the clerk to
read them. Richardson Insisted, and they
were read.
( Bad Feellns; Breaks Oct.
Payne then renewed his motion to ap
prove the Journal. Bid feeling began to
show, and Richardson exchanged sharp
words with Payne. Payne said he xnado
the motion, as there was an evident dis
position on the other side to delay pro
ceedings. Underwood" (Dem., Ala:), pro
tested against the previous question with
out giving his side an opportunity to re
ply, but Payne declined to yield and de
minded, the previous question. Another
rollcall was forced upon the demand. The
previous question was ordered. 154 to 62.
Another rollcall was forced on the mo
rion to approve the Journal. The Journal
was approved, 115 to 6L Just before the
vote was announced Underwood (Ala.)
changed his vote from no to aye, and af
ter the announcement he entered a mo
tion to' reconsider.
"I make the point that the motion Is
dilatory," said Payne.
"The chair sustains the point," an
nounced the chair.
"I appeal from the decision ot the
Chair," said Underwood.
"The chair rules tho appeal out on the
ground that It I dilatory." replied the
chair.
Wadsworth (N. Y.) attempted to ask
unanimous consent to send the agricul
tural bill to conference, but halt a dozen
Democrats demanded the '"regular or
der." Olmstead (Pa.) then called up the con
tested election case of Wagoner vs. But
ler, from the Twelfth Missouri District,
and Richardson raised the question of
consideration against It. The roll was
called again. The House decided to con
sider the case, 153 to 109, a party vote.
Debate on Contest Itself.
Olmstead. In charge ot the case, then
took the floor In support of the majority
report, which recommended the unseat
ing ot Butler, -ani the seating of Wag
oner and reviewed the history of the con
test. Feeley, in arguing that Butler should
not be unseated, protested that the whole
proceeding beforo tho elections commit
tee was irregular and unprecedented. Fee
ley spoke, SI minutes and then yielded the
remaining nine minutes of his time to
DeArmond (Mo.) Two requests were made
to extend the tatter's time, but Olmstead
objected, saying that so much time had
been wasted that he could not agree to
any extension. DeArmond was exceed
ingly severe In his arraignment ot the
majority, and aroused his side to great
enthusiasm.
Miller (Kan.) replied to DeArmond. de
claring amid applause on his side of the
House that "neither vituperation nor
threats could prevent the majority from
dolhg Its duty."
Olmstead concluded the debate In a flve
mlnute speech and then demanded the
previous question. It was ordered. 150 to
111. The vote was then taken on the
minority resolutions declaring Butler en
titled to his scat. They were voted down,
112 to 155.
Underwood (Dem., Ala.) then moved to
recommit the case to the committee on
elections, and on that motion Payne de
manded the previous question. Meantime
the Democrats bad left the ball, and.
when the House divided, the vote stood
156 to 1. disclosing the absense ot a quo
rum. This forced a call of the House.
After an hour's welting, a quorum ap
peared and the previous question was or
dered, 147 to 12,swlth IS present and not
answering to their names. The vote then
recurred on the motion to recommit. On
a rising division the Ybte stood SO to 165.
Democrats Grow Parlous.
.Richardson demanded a division, but
the chair ruled that the demand was dila
tory. A scene of wild confusion, followed.
The Republicans cheered the rulings of
Dalzell (Rep.. Pa.), who was in the chair,
while Richardson (Dem., Tcnn.) and Un
derwood (Dem.. Ala.) stood In their places
and denounced It In unmeasured terms.
The vote was then taken on the resolu
tion declaring Butler not entitled to his
seat. Or a viva voce vote the chair de
clared the motion carried, declining to rec
ognize Richardson's demand for a divis
ion. Richardson again denounced the chair's
action, crying out thai it was "tyrannical,
unheard of. unfair and unjust." The Re
publicans Jeered,' but he continued to in
veigh against the chair's action in loud
tones. When the vote on the resolution
declaring Wagoner entitled to tho seat
was taken, a similar scene followed. A
division was allowed, and the chair de
clared the resolution adopted, JG1 to 2.
declining to entertain the point that no
quorum was present.
This still further aroused the Ire ot the
handful of Democrats on the floor. "I did
not believe the chair would be guilty of
such an action," cried Richardson, while
Williams (Dem.. HL) from his seat shout
ed that the Speaker had to put a proxy
in the chair to do It.
Wagoner Takes Ills Seat.
"Wagoner, the contestant, was then es
corted to the bar ot the House and sworn

and Payne, the 'majority leader, moved a
recess until tomorrow, and on that de-

WASHINGTON. Feb. 28. The House
Democratic caucus today adopted the fol

"Resolved. That we shall resist, by all

and that by way of emphasizing our con
demnation of partisan disregard ot tho
