SUflEOFSOCCESS
Oregorv Men Will Get
Money for Canal.
AMOUNT WILL BESMALL
Action of Committee Depends
on Major Langfitt
NOT A CONTINUING CONTRACT
Hermann Says Amount for Columbia
Jetty Will Be Liberal, That for
the .Celilo Canal Small, by
Dictum of Burton.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, D. C, Jan. 23. The river and har
bor bill was not reported" today, as had
been expected, because of the failure of
the committee to agree upon a few remaining-
items, among them The Dalles
Celilo Canal project. At neither session
today was this item considered, the com
mittee awaiting information from Major
Lanpntt relative to the merits of the
project. As soon as this Is received, a
decision will be reached.
Oregon Congressmen are more confident
than ever before that some appropriation
may be made for the Cclllo Canal, though
neither is able to state the amount. Jn
fact, member of the committee say no
understanding has been reached on this
item.
Representative Hermann, after talking
with Chairman Burton, said today that a
liberal appropriation would be made for
the mouth of the Columbia and a small
appropriation for the Celilo Canal. He
quotes Chairman Burton as saying:
"It is absolutely out of the question to
I-ut the Celilo Canal improvement under
a continuing contract."
WILLING TO SELL OUT.
But .Klamath Irrigation Company
Would Rather Go Ahead.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Jan. 23. President Hawkins, of
the Klamath Canal Company, whose en
terprise stands in the way of the Gov
ernment reclamation work in the Klam
ath Basin, is in Washington conferring
with members of the Oregon and Califor
nia delegations, in the hope of persuading
them to withdraw their support of pending-
bills intended, to clear the way for
Government enterprises in Southern Ore
gon and Northern California. Mr. Hawk
ins declares that his company organized
and is proceeding in good faith to con-
rrijaJsnproJect, and. If
tiot interTcred wittt. by,' the Government,
will be able to reclaim a large part of the
land lying under the proposed Govern
ment system. He insists that his vested
rights entitle him to consideration, and
that it would be wrong "for the Govern
ment, at this late day, to crowd him out
However, ho says he is willing: to relin
quish his rights to the Government for a
"fair consideration." though he names
no figure.
He finds the Oregon and California dele
gations unwilling: to withdraw their sun
port from the pending bills, but on the
contrary insistent upon clearing the way
for the Government. He has assurance,
however, that if he will sell out at what
the Government considers a fair price,
both delegations will work in his interest
to that extent. Mr. Hawkins is said to
have had a conference with the reclama
tion officials to ascertain whether or not
satisfactory arrangements can be made
-whereby his company can dispose of its
Interests and withdraw from the field.
WOULD GIVE MORE TIME TO PAY
Proposed Amendment to Irrigation
Bill for Benefit of Settlers.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Jan. 23. Representative Martin,
of South Dakota, today introduced a bill
amending that provision of the National
reclamation law prescribing- the manner
in which settlers shall make payments
for water rights. Under the law as It
now stands, these payments are to be
made in ten annual installments. Martin's
bill prozldes that, where the cost of the
water will exceed J20 an acre, the Secre
tary of the Interior, in his discretion,
may extend payments over a period of
more than ten years, so that the annual
payments shall at no time exceed 52 an
acre. That is to say. where settlers must
pay 530 an acre, they will be allowed to
pay up in 15 instead of 10 years.
Martin says the present law is likely to
work a. hardship on settlers under ex
pensive projects. This bill, if passed, will
apply to most projects in Oregon and
Washington.
IN NO MOOD TO MEDDLE.
House Refuses to Express Sympathy
With Russian Strikers.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 23. The session
of the House today -was devoted en
tirely to consideration of bills relat
ing: to the District of Columbia. There,
was an echo of yesterday's disturb
ances in St- Petersburg-, when Baker,
of New York, moved that an adjourn
ment bo taken out of respect to those
who were killed in the clash with the
Russian troops. The only affirmative
vote was recorded by Mr. Baker him
self. A lltt) later the proceedings were
Interrupted by Pearre, of Maryland,
being- seised with a nervous convul
sion, necessitating- a brief recess. He
soon milled and was conveyed to his
iiome. The proposition to control the
railroads in the matter of rates was
discussed at length by Burgess, of
Texas, and briefly by Hepburn, of
Iowa.
A minor bill was being- considered
when Baker (Dem.. N. T.), in an ex
cited manner jumped up and moved
that the House adjourn. "In order that
we may express our indescribable hor
ror at the wanton massacre that has
taken place In Russia."
Speaker Cannon put the question to
the House. The only vote In favor of
Adjournment was that of Baker. Seeing
that his motion was lost. Baker shad
ing his finger at the Republican side
of the House, exclaimed. "That is the
Interest you people have in humanity."
and iu axx undertone said that if it
had boen a King: or Emperor who had
been shot down. theHouse immediately
would have adjourned.
No sooner had the House resumed Its
composure than it was thrown into a
state of excitement by Representative
Pe&rreV of Maryland, being- stricken
with nervous convulsions. He received
immediate treatment from Dr. Hunter,
a . member from Kentucky, a ten-minute
recess being- taken.
Upon resuming the session, the
House took up the District of Colum
bia appropriation bill in committee of
the whole.
Under the latitude ol general debate.
Burg-ess (Tex.), discussed at length
the question of rates charged by the
railroads. Summing- up "bis remarks,
he said that an opportunity was' now
presented for members of "the House tq
rise above party and vote for legisla
tion which will restrict the railroads.
The .matter, he said, resolved itself
into the question: "Are you with
Roosevelt or are you with the rail
roads?" Criticising- the House for its refusal
to adjourn in respect to the memory
of the persons killed In St. Petersburg:
yesterday. Mr. Baker (N. Y.) said he
could not conceive how the House
could remain Indifferent to "a crime so
unprovoked, so wanton and so shame
less and cruel, that the whole civil
ised world stands aghast."
Hepburn (Towa) took issue with
Burgess regarding a portion of his re
marks. He said that all through Bur
gess remarks there had been an at
tempt to make a partisan question out
of it.
Littlefleld (Me.) said Congress must
do one of two things reduce appro
priations or Increase revenues.
Consideration of the bill had not
been concluded when it was laid aside
and the House concurred in the Senate
amendments to the omnibus claim bill
and sent Jt to conference.
TO MANAGE SANTO DOMINGO.
Plan of Action by State Department
for Settlement of Finances.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. The State De
partment is working out the details of the
agreement touching the administration of
the finances of Santo Domingo, and some
of these will be made operative within a
month. Mr. Abbott Is collecting the cus
toms at Puerto Plata, and other experts
in customs affairs will be stationed by
,the United States at Monte Christl, Axua,
Macoris and. other principal ports to exercise-
a general supervision over Domin
ican customs collections, keeping watch
on the accounts and gradually surround
ing themselves with a corps of reliable
and efficient subordinates to Insure an
honest administration.
A commission will be named at an early
day to take up the broad subject of re
form of the Dominican finances, which
are said to be in the utmost confusion.
The existing system must be purified, and
some attempt must be made to regulate
reckless expenditures as well as to con
trol receipts. The commission will ascer
tain the exact amount of the foreign ob
ligations now outstanding against Santo
Domingo and readjust these on an equit
able basis.
The entire debt of Santo Xtomlngo, both
foreign and domestic, is placed at about
535,000,000. The roughest estimates made
by experts here permit of the assignment
at the very outset of at least 51.000,000 per
annum of the customs receipts for the
reduction of the foreign debt, whUe it is
believed to be certain that the customs
receipts will be largely increased In con
nection with the general improvement in
business expected to follow the tranqulli
zatlon of Santo Domingo and the admin
istration of its finances by the United
States. Some of the ports of the republic
are practically In possession of elements
hostllft to President Morales. It will be
necessary for the United States to -place
customs officers at these ports and to
overcome any resistance that may bo
offered locally, so to that extent the ad
ministration of President Morales Is likely
to receive moral support.
The comlnlsslon probably will consist of
threetlfojffu ilnd onoor two xpct- finan
ciers. T'he expenses of its maintenance
will be charged against the revenues of
San Domingo, so there will be no neces
sity for tho Administration to apply to
the United States Congress for an appro
priation to carry out its policy.
DON'T TOUCH MAIN QUESTION.
Opinion of Gould Official on Bills to
Regulate Rates.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 23. "None of the
pending measures touch on the main
question," said A. C. Bird, ice-pre3ident
of a number of railroads composing the
Gould system, at a hearing today before
the House committee on interstate and
foreign commerce on the question of giv
ing the Interstate Commission greater
powers. "Unreasonable rates per se," he
said, "have disappeared. All that has
been proposed 1s in opposition to what
has been done," and he added that, in
dealing with the railroad question the
mistake was made of assuming that the
railroads are controlled by one man.
Stricken Down on Floor of House.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 23. Representa
tive Pearre, of Maryland, was stricken
with a nervous convulsion on the floor
of the House today, And was carried to
the cloakroom and attended by Dr. God
frey Hunter, a member of the House from
Kentucky. Owing to the confusian and
excitement, a recess of 1) minutes was
taken.
Mr. Pearre revived rapidly and was
taken to his home.
To Improve Steamboat Inspection.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 2$. Representa
tive Grosvenor, chairman of the House
committee on the merchant marine and
fisheries, introduced today eight bills sub
mitted by Secretary Metcalf in accord
ance with the recommendations In the re
port of the General Slocum Investigating
commission for the improvement of. the
steamboat Inspection service.
Internal Revenue Receipts.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 For Decem
ber, 1901, the total internal revenue re
ceipts were 520,741,019, an Increase as com
pared with December, 1903, of 5163,228. For
the last six months the receipts sliow a
decrease of $639,CU as compared with the
corresponding period of 1903.
Hearing on Duty on Philippine Sugar.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The commit
tee on ways and means of the House of
Representatives today began a scries of
hearings on the bill to reduce the rate of
duty on Philippine sugar coming into tho
United States. The bill was only Infor
mally discussed today.

TELLER , LEADS;1 THE ATTACK
He Denies Authority of President to
Make Treaty Money Says Philip
pines Were Taken as Base
for Attack -on China.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. Beverldge
made another ineffectual effort In the
Senate today to have a time fixed for
voting on the statehood bill. The op
posing Senators showed an unwillingness
to vote on the bill until the amendments
shall have been disposed of, and Bever
ldge would not consent to a vote on them
without an agreement extending to the
bill Itself. The fortifications appropria
tion bill was passed after recons!deatlon
of the amendment striking out the provi
sions for Insular fortifications.
Perkins (Rep., Cal.) presented the cre
dentials of Frank P. Flint. The creden
tials of Lodge (Rep., Mass.): WInthrop
Murray Crane (Rep.. Mass.), and McCum
ber (Rep., N. D.) were also presented.
A Joint resolution appropriating J70C0 to
pay the necessary expenses of the Inau
gural ceremonies was passed.
The fortifications appropriation bill was
then taken up, the pending question being
an amendment by Teller to the appropria
tion for Insular possessions. Teller criti
cized the apparent lack of system in for
tifying the insular possessions. He was
not in favor of any great expenditure on
the islands.
"As long as we keep them, they consti
tute our weakest point for an attack by
an enemy," be said. Teller said ho had
noticed in the morning papers that we
were about Jo take another Island, "that
wo are guaranteeing the stability of- the
Island of Santo Domingo." Ho did not
feel so much llko complaining as to the
way we came Into possession of the Phil
ippines as he did about tho administration
taking a new burden.
"It Is a great job." he added; "It means
an army in Santo Domingo."
"I deny," he continued, "the authority
of the executive department to make any
agreement or contract to bind the people.
It Is an assumption of authority on the
part of the executive. I want some law
yer in his chamber to tell me where the
President gets that kind of authority."
Teller reviewed the departments of
Government, and held the action of the
Secretary of Stato a gross violation n
the executive, and an assumption of the
rights, of the legislative department.
Perkins of California replied briefly to
Toller's remarks relating to the Philip
pines. The Islands were United States
territory, and the improvement provided
were necessary, he said.
The amendment was further discussed
by Carmack, Gorman. Bacon and Money,
all of whom favored It. Money based his
support on the fact as he said, that If
the provision for the fortification of the
Philippine Islands was left in the bill.
"It would look as If we are there to stay."
He expressed the opinion that the Jap
anese were the natural protectors of the
Filipinos, if they need a protector, which
he did not believe to be the case. . He not
only believed that the FJllplno people need
no such assistance, but Mat the Domin
ions wcr alsa capabtti of taking care of
themselves, "
It had been stated, he continued, in an
executive session of the Senate by a Sen
ator who had assisted In negotiating the
Spanish treaty that one of the principal
reasons for acquiring the Philippine
Islands was found in the desire to have a
base near China from which to operate
when it comes to the partition of China
"In order that we may get our share,"
He opposed any policy looking to the dis
memberment of that great Empire, or
any like policy elsewhere.
The amendment was voted down. 17 to
68, a party vote. Tho bill was then
passed.
When the joint statehood bill was taken
up. Bate continued his speech in opposi
tion to that measure Beverldge made an
effort to secure an agreement to vote on
the bill, but opposing Senators objected,
saying that no day for a vote on the bill
itself could be named until the amend
ment had been voted on.

left between the items as here:
"T
HERE'S, nothing new under the sun,"
runs an old adage and it's the new way
way of saying the same thing that writers
strive for. "We owe much to the Japs,
and here's a new one. Speaking of the length of a
parade, for half a century reporters have said, "It
as - hours passing a given point." 'Twas the
best way of expressing it, seemingly, until now,
Tokio makes a distinct contribution to literature's
jewelbox by saying, in a published account of an im
mense parade: "The procession was three hours
passing the saluting base." Perhaps, at first this
doesn't seem an improvement, but 'tis. Principal
reason it's new. (Imagine a Russian procession
looking for a "saluting base" about now). Thanks,
Tokio, for a new, one. The world today is full of
provincialism. People and stores who can't see
beyond a stub nose, and think there's naught better
than that is bounded by an old butter firkin as a
horizon to their dim and fading eyesight. But a
few are broad. Ever think, Portland folk, of what
your one great, liberal, broad, "Different Store" is
doing for you? Is it any wonder, when you ponder
over these things, this store does bettor for you than
any other, that buying is best done here? Style
buying and saving buying. This is the only large
Portland store that conducts a permanent New York
office. Ours at 438 Broadway, in charge of Mr.
U. G. Shiplej-, enables us to watch the market 12
months iu the year and secure values unknown to
other stores in this section. Twelve store buyers go
from here to our New York office twice and three
times a year in the interests of our and their
patrons. Messrs. Hamberger, of the Millinery
Salons; F..M. Young, of te "Women's Furnishings;
M. Hansen of the Unermuslin, Infants' "Wear,
Corset and Art Sections, and Miss L. Bernard,
chiefess of the big garment stores, all under the able
direction of our Mr. "Wortman, are now in New York
planning to fill your needs for Spring, as only buyers
on the spot of fashion can. Our army of buyers go
to the style centers to study methods and hearken to
Madame Fashion as she reads her edicts for devotees
