Humphrey (Wash;)" joined Stevens in
opposition to the bill. He argued that
the American purchaser thought he had
an opportunity to make -money at the
expense of the legitimate ship industry
of this country. Further debate -was cut
oft by Fordney moving that the bill be

applause.

. tary Government. -'
WASHINGTON, March STThe .Senate,
spent almost the entire, day listening to
the committee amendments to. the Army
bill concerning provisional trtfbps in the
Philippines, and the consolidation . of the
Adjutant-General's office with the record
and pension office. The Porto Rlcan
amendment was objected to by Demo
cratic Senators, as tending .to a more
pronounced military form of government.
Both amendments ultimately were ac
cepted. The bill was amended so as to provide
tor an increased engineer corps. It was
still pending when the Senate adjourned.
At the beginning of the session New
lands spoke in favor of the passage of his
bill to preserve the vista from the dome
of the National Capitol to the "Washing
ton Monument by restricting the erection
of public buildings to a line 400 feet on
either side of a central line between the
points named. He expressed the opinion
that no more public buildings should be
erected on the Mall, but It should be re
served for exposition buildings, with a
view of having exhibitions in Washing
ton every ten years, as Is done in Paris.
The bill was referred to the committee
on the District of Columbia
After a bill amending the mining laws
contained In section 2326, revised statutes,
had been passed, the Army appropriation
bill was taken up and the reading o the
committee amendments proceeded with'.
At the request of Proctor the commtitee
amendment authorizing the payment of
25 per cent of the ealaries of officers and
men of the Philippine scouts in Philippic
currency was disagreed to. When the
reading pf the bill was completed the
amendment concerning the provisional
Porto Rlcan regiment was again taken up.
Teller moved to disagree to the Senate
amendment making the regiment consist
of three battalions, Instead of two, as
fixed by the House. The suggestion caused
debate which took a wide range, concern
ing the use of native troops In the de
pendencies. Teller, Stewart, Spooner, For
aker, Daniel. Carmack, Money, Morgan
and Quarles participated. In the course
of his remarks Foraker said any intima
tion that the President desired to use the
Porto Rlcan troops for an Improper pur
pose was unfounded.
Opposes Military Display. '
Carmack said he took the proposition as
an Indication of a tendency toward a mili
tary government, saying the "distin
guished soldier," Mr. Root, had been mus
tered out of the office of Secretary of
War with flying flags and blowing horns,
and his successor had been inducted into
office under similar conditions.
"Now," he said, "we are to have a mili
tary display on the presentation of diplo
mats. I am sorry the order for that sys
tem was too late for Bunau-Varilla. 1
should like to have had the system in
vogue on his arrival and would have been
glad to command it"
Teller's amendment was rejected and the
provision for three battalions was re
tained.
The Senate also returned to the com
mlttee amendment transforming the Adjutant-General's
office into a military sec
retary's department.
Proctor said the amendment was in the
Interest of operative detail, and he de
fended General F. A. Alnsworth, at the
head of the record and pension office.
against the charge of too rapid promo
tlon. The provision promotes General
Alnsworth from a Brigadier-General to a
Major-Gencral. The amendment was
agreed to.
Increase In Engineer Cirps.
Culberson suggested an amendment pro
Tiding for an increase in the engineer
corps, explaining 'the necessity for a larg
er number of engineer officers in the river
and harbor work of the country. With
some modifications the amendment was
accepted. It provides that the corps shall
tin rnmnpspd of 10 Colonels. 16 Lieutenant-
Colonels. S2 Major's and 43 Captains, 43
First Lieutenants and 43 Second Lieu
tenants. An amendment was proposed for the re
tirement with advanced rank of officers
who served In the Civil War so as to
make It retroactive. The amendment was
accepted.
With the bill still pending the Senate,
at 5:51 P. M., adjourned, after a brief ex
ecutlve session.

Warm Debate Over Request of Eng
lish Ship Wrecked Off Nova Scotia
WASHINGTON, March 8. Today In the
House was set apart for consideration of
claim bills. Thirty-two of this charac
ter were passed. One relating to the
granting of an American register to the
ship Beaumont gave rise to much debate.
Stevens (Minn.) made the point that to
admit such ships to American registry
would be detrimental to the interests of
American workmen. He was seconded
by Humphrey (Wash.). The bill was
passed.
Shortly after the House convened.
Speaker Cannon, In ruling on the confer
ence report in the legislative," executlvo
and judicial appropriation bill, stood by
a former precedent, holding that conferees
could not Insert new matter.
The point of order was made by Mann
(111.). It pertained to the matter of car
riages for officials of the Government
The conferees had inserted the words
"or official" after the word "porsonaL"
These words were not put in by either
House.
Considerable discussion was precipitated
over the bill providing an American
register for the steamer Beaumont, for
merly the Mira, wrecked off the coast of
Nova Scotia. After Fordney (Mich.) had
explained the bill. Stevens (Minn.) vigor
ously opposed it. saying in the course of
his remarks that it had for its object
legislating money out of the pockets of
American workmen. He was replied to by
William Alden Smith (Mich.). McMorran
(Mich.). Thayer (Dem.. Mass.) and Dun-
well (N. T.), who Insisted that the meas
ure was a just one and should pass.
Smith said the vessel formerly was an
English one. The present American
owner, he argued, could not get an Eng
llsh register, and now the gentleman from

BERLIN, March 8. Lieutenant Carl
Beseke, retired, after a long and steady
decay of-fortune, yesterday took hid last,

cessful, and he became sales agent for a
manufacturer and then manager of . a
map-making enterprise.
He lived beyond his means for 30 years.
Last night the Bezeke family had a box
at the circus. At 10 o'clock dinner was
ordered. Bezeke was especially gay and

Tillamook Herald.
In a few issues since, the Headllglit,
that knowing gentleman, was whooping
up his matrimonial "band wagon" as he
terms it. Now the Herald won't have
much to say on tho subject, but there is
one thing sure, boys and girls, young
men and young women, bachelors and old
maids, If you are wanting to tie up, why
you will have to get in the Herald band

married to R. L. "Wade a little over
year ago, having been on tho Herald
force about IS months when she was mar
ried; Miss Dora Donaldson was the next
to join In matrimonial bliss with C. Nel
son, having been on the paper but- a short
time; the editor of the Herald finally got
lonesome and took unto himself a life
partner, and now we loose another from
the force. Miss Kathryn Plank being mar
ried Sunday to Joe Franklin, having been
on the paper several months. "We can

War Minister Makes-Brief Reply to
Spirited Socialist Attack on the
Military System and Do
ciines to Go Further.
BERLIN, March S. The matter of the
resignation of the hereditary Prince of
Saxe-Melnlngen, "brother-in-law of Em
peror William, from the command of the'
Sixth Army Corps, which followed .the is
suance of an order by the Prince, In
which he 'advised private soldiers to" lodge
complaints when they were Illy treated,
came up in the Reichstag today during
the discussion of the military budget.
Helnrlch Ernest Mueller (Frelsslge mem-,
ber of the Reichstag from Melnlngen)
pointed ont that the 'remarks made last
week by General Von Elnem, Minister of
War, when he denied the Prince had re
signed or been dismissed from the army,
were worded In such a way as to mis
lead.
"Can you disprove," Herr Mueller asked
General Von Elnem. "the statement
which was circulated by the press that
the Prince received a letter In. the hand
writing of Emperor William demanding
that he revoke his order on the subject
of the ill-treatment of soldiers, and there
upon the Prince handed In his resigna
tion. Official proof of this exlsts&ln the
Cabinet order dated the very day or? which
His Majesty's letter to the Prince was
written. This order says the demand
made by the. Prince that soldiers be re
minded df their duty to lodge complaints
when ill-treated should be rectified to.
read 'Have a right to complain when so
treated.' "
Caused Painful Impression.
This was the sharpest kind of disavowal
of the Prince's a"ct. His removal caused
the most painful Impression amonK the
entire German people, and the connection
between his order and his removal cannot
be explained away, ft was a month later
that the Prince was appointed to be
Inspector-general of the Second Army
Corps as a slave to the humiliation.
which resulted from his dismissal. "The
reason why this matter made such a pain
ful Impression is that hundreds of thou
sands of people now believe any army
officer who tries energetically to stOD the
Ill-treatment of private soldiers will be
disciplined." Herr Mueller further de
clared that In the Bavarian army there
were much fewer cases of maltreatment
than In the Prussian army, explaining
tnis- statement by saying there were fewer
nobles in the former army, that-the offi
cers were better educated, that the mili
tary courts had long been held in public.
and that stringent measures against mal
treatment had been In force for several
decades.
"If you. want to combat the Socialists,"
Herr Mueller continued, "you must do
nothing to advertise them. Petty adminis
trative regulations act like pin pricks,
make the Socialists appear as martyrs.
and result In forcing millions of people
to vote the socialist ticket."
i Herr Mueller went on and described the
discontent existing among army officers
of civilian birth, saying they complained
of. the preference given members of the
nobility In the matter of appointments
and advancement. He read a letter from
an officer of high rank, who asserted
that the discontent among civilian offi
cers was very great, and declared In con
clusion: "Never before has there appeared such
unfavorable criticism of our military ad
ministration as. ia now being printed In
newspapers of all political parties."'
Defends the Emperor.
To Herr Mueller General Von Ednam
replied by first reading verbatim his re
marks made on this matter March 4, after
which he said:
"When Herr Mueller say3 the Prince
was dismissed because of his general or
der against the Ill-treatment of sol
diers, I must answer that this is an un
disguised attack on the highest officer in
the army. He speaks as if His Majesty
had not proceeded personally with all
possible energy against Ill-treatment of
soldiers, and as If the Emperor had dis
missed this officer for acting In accord
ance with his own principles. Where
shall we end If a discussion Is held here
In the Reichstag every .time His Majesty
appoints a commanding general? Under
no, circumstances can this occur, and I
must refuse to participate In this dis
cussion." He denied that army officers belonging
to the nobility were given preference over
officers of civilian origin in the general
staff of tho Ministry of War, and de
clared many regiments had officers with
out titles. "If, however," he declared,
"His Majesty rewards the merlta of the
nobles. It was not our business to criti
cize." .
General Von Elnem denied also that
dandyism prevails among the officers.
He declined to be drawn into further de
bate with the Socialists, and did not re
ply to the remarks made earlier la' the
day by Gorge Ledebour (Social Demd-
crat), who had said:
"Ton want to frustrate our Ideals with
force of arms, but wait until we get a
majority and have the power to realize
our Ideals: then the German people will

PREMIER TAKES GLOOMY VIEW
Austrian Reichsrath Opens Under
Very Gloomy Conditions.
VIENNA, March 8. The Reichsrath re
assembled today after a recess of three
months duration. The address of Dr. Von
Koerber, the Austrian Premier, was ex
tremely pessimistic. Heretofore his
speech opening the' session hag been cheer
ful and hopeful, but this morning he
spoke as though he had lost all hope, and
declared the situation presented a picture
of a Parliamentary graveyard. The opin
ion of the Premier seemed to be generally
shared.
Among other things the Premier said
that Austro-Hungary regretted deeply the
Russo-Japanese War, and would observe
strictest neutrality during the conflict.
Referring to the Balkans, he hoped that
after the proposed reforms had been car
ried out there would be no further agita
tion there. He . .regretted the spread of
alarmist rumors, and said the Russian
and Austrian governments were now en
deavoring to put an end to all mystifica
tion and to Inform all people Of every
threatened danger.
