NOTBIG STICKBUT
BIG SLIPPER
Representative;- Leake Says
Bryan Has Stolen the'.
President's Thunder.
HISSED BY HIS PARTY
'Brief but Fiery Speech Occnrs In
Debate on Indian Appropriation
BIHNon-Reservatlon School
Question 'to Be Investigated.
WASHINGTON", Feb. 10. A brief but
flery speech by Leake, of new Jersey,
in which lie outlined his opposition to
William J Bryan as a candidate for
the Presidency, relieved somewhat the
monotony of debate on the Indian ap
, pnopriation bill in the House qf -Representatives
today. Mr. Leake charged
Mr. Bryan with taking the bis stick
from the President, leaving the latter
only a big slipper and he further
credited the Democrats in the House
with having usurped the right of free
action of the delegates at the Denver
convention by nominating Mr. Bryan
In advance. His remarks wore greeted
with hisses from the Democratic! side
of the House.
Considerable progress was made
with the Indian appropriation bill,
which was amended so that the Com
missioner of Indian affairs, belorehe
carrier out the policy of abandoning
nonreservation schools, shall investi
gate the. question fully and report to
the House at its next session. - An
other amendment restored the appro
priations for the Indian schools at Fort
Lewis, Colorado, and Carson City, Nev.
"Big Slipper," Not "Big Stick."
At the very outset of tlie debate
politics was injected into the proceed
ings when Mr. Leake (Dem., X. J.) de
nounced W. J. Bryan and his methods.
"If," proceeded Mr. Leake,' "I adopted
. the example of Mr. Bryan I would ve
hemently condemn him, as he did the
distinguished Democrat, the Hon. Grover
C'loveland."
. But he would, he said, content himself
with admitting that Mr. Bryan was
honest, consistent and sincere. He de
clared, however, that "Mr. Bryan's fa
miliarity with the decalogue better quali
fied him for the pulpit than the Presi
dency." Republican laughter greeted this utter
ance, which immediately afterwards was
supplemented by Democratic hisses when
Leake said of Mr. Bryan:
"He has taken the big stick from the
President of the United States and, to
use his 'own simile, he is now crucifying
the principles of Democracy and Ameri
can individuality and ambition on the
cross of Socialism."
The President, thus being deprived .of
his big stick, he declared, had resorted
to the "big slipper."
Discuss Non-Reservation Schools.
' After Mr. Leake's speech the non-reservation
school provision of the Indian ap
propriation bill was taken up. There was
brief debate, after which the provision
was modified so that instead of authoriz
ing the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to
negotiate with the various states in which
they were located for the disposal of these
schools he is "to ascertain whether and
upon what terms it may be possible to
dispose of any of the non-reservation
schools .which may be deemed no longer
of value to the Indian service."
The provision exempting farmers from
the Civil Service rules aroused the oppo
sition of Mr. Mann, tf Illinois, who, after
making a point of order against it. said
he wanted to relieve the suspicion that
he was using appointments for political
purposes.. An appeal of Mr. Mac Guire,
pf tOklahoma, that Mr. Mann withdraw
Ws'point was of no avail, whereupon Mr.
. Sherman sought to amend the paragraph
by requiring an examination to be. pre
scribed by the Secretary of the Interior.
In this he was unsuccessful, for the pre
siding officer maintained that it was an
evasion of the Civil Service law.
The provision relating to the purchase
of irrigable unallotted lands of Flathead
Reservation, Montana, was stricken from
the bill on a point of order by Mr. Mann.
ALDR1CH OX CURRENCY BILIj
Morgan Hears 111m and Depew
Throws Bouquet at Banker.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. Senator
Aidrich, of Rhode Island, chairman of
the committee on finance, opened the
debate in' the Senate today on his bill
to provide an emergency currency. He
was listened to with great attention by
Republicans and Democrats alike,
while in the galleries there was a
large audience. Among others was J.
Pierpont Morgan, who remained
through the delivery of the' speech.
Aidrich said, in closing a long
speech:
"The enactment of the pending bill
will furnish evidence that Congress is
not unmindful of its serious responsi
bilities in this regard. There can be
no reasonable doubt of the effective
ness of the measure. Tho committee
firmly believes that through its en
actment an atmosphere of confidence
and feeling of security will be created
which will be invaluable in improv
ing business conditions and In giving
a new Impetus to the work of National
development.''
Depew replied to a recent charge
made "by Culberson ef Texas that dur
ing the recent panic the Secretary of
the Treasury favored New York City
In depositing public money in National
depositories. The danger that was so
great, he said, was avoided by the
wise action of the Secretary of the
Treasury, "assisted by that phenome
nal genius, J. pierpont Morgan, who,
associating himself with the bankers
of New York, nrovided the means by
which the banks could be saved."
At the time of this uttcrahoe Mr.
Morgan 6ccupied a seat In the private
gallery nd1wa a careful listener to
all that was said.

PLAN TO DEFEAT CLEETON
'Continued From -First Pnee.)
and to assure the representatives of the
Government that he invites the Closest
Investigation of his record in this state
as a cithten, lawyer, legislator and Dis
trict Attorney In the Circuit Court.
Gratified by" the fact that he is the
unanimous choice of the Oregon delega
tion, Mr. Cleeton has secured further in
dorsement in the nature of commenda
tory letters from J Justices Moore and
Bean of the Oregon Supreme Court.
These have been forwarded to Washing
ton and will bo" followed by a petition
that is being circulated among the mem
bers of the bar in this city asking the
President to appoint Mr. Cleeton. Such
a petition was circulated yesterday by
C. M. Idleman, chairman of the Republi
can County Central Committee, and W.
M. Davis. During the day 75 signatures
were secured and others will be enrolled
today.
"I have not been apprised of the char
acter of the charges that have been pre
ferred against me. If any," said Mr.
Cleeton yesterday" "but it there is found
anything in my record that cannot be
explained satisfactorily, I will be per
fectly willing to withdraw my name as
a candidate, for the office. In - fact, I
would not for an Instant ask tor the
place if there was anything question
able in my record. It is not the office
now that I am so much interested in as
it- is the question of my qualifications
either as a lawyer, circuit judge or as
a member of the State Legislature. I shall
confer with Mr. Becker and Mr. Neu
hausen tomorrow and ask to be advised
of any . charges that may have been
brought against me, feeling satisfied that
I can enlighten them on anything that
may be called to their attention."
As-is the case when a man Is suggested
for such an important office, the record
of Mr. Cleeton is being inquired into
thoroughly. In that connection Cteeton's
connection with one of the legislative in
vestigations of the books of George W.
Davis, ex-Clerk of the - School Land
Board, shortly prior to the discovery of
a $30,000 defalcation, has ben resurrected.
Mr. Cleeton, at the 1S95 session of the
Legislature, of which he was a member,
offered a resolution providing for the
appointment of a committee to Investi
gate the books of the School Land Board.
This was but one of the numerous "in
vestigating committees" that were ap
pointed at each session before these
grafts were shut off. The only purpose
served by the committee! was to furnish
$3 and to a day clerkships for the small
army of incompetent applicants who
wanted a' chance at the public treasury, i
"As was the customary practice, having
offered the resolution calling for the ap
pointment of this committee, I was ap
pointed chairman," said Mr. Cleeton last
night. "The committee employed experts
who " investigated the records of the
School Land Board as thoroughly as it
wag possible to do and report In the 40
days before the Legislature adjourned.
This report was not submitted until just
before the close of the sessVm. The
members of the committee did not have
the time closely to scrutinize the report,
which we signed, having full confidence
in the experts who had done the work,
they being entirely competent and reputa
ble." Apother report was to the effect that
Mr.' Cleeton has been interested in some
timber land transactions in this state, no
direct intimation of fraud accompanying
the charge. But any Insinuation that he
profited In any way through the acqui
sition of timber claims by any person is
positively and emphatically denied by
Mr. Cleeton. On two occasions, explains
Mr. Cleeton, he negotiated a loan from a
third party for two women who had filed
on timber land in order to enable them
to complete final proof. The money so
advanced, he says, was repaid and the
notes taken up before they became due.
rn these cases the services Qf Mr. Clee
ton were employed solely as agent for ne
gotiating loans for his clients, and only
in that sense was he interested in the
transaction.
RENEWS ; PATRONAGE WAR
(Continued From First Page.)
understand how- Foraker came by the
letters, which were private, or why he
failed to-read all of, them, unless it was
that he did not have tem.
The letter was in reply to one from
Mr. Bryson, who had acknowledged him
self a Foraker man and who had made
the assertion that the President would
not appoint strong men to public office.
In his letter to Mr. Bryon Douglass de
clared that he, was making a mountain
out of - a molehill, "and In order to disa
buse his mind about the President's feel
ing toward candidates for public office,
suggested that Mr.' Bryson come to
Washington and have a talk with the
Preit!'ent. Douglass declared that he had
recommended Mr. Bryson for the post
mastership and the President had ap
pointed him. . . .
"The whole incident," Douglass re
marked, "illustrates not the disposition
of the President to wage war upon any
men who are not of his way of thinking,
but rather the same generosity and
broad-mindedness which he has always
exhibited in appointing to offices men
lit in every way to fill them."
Charges Untrue, Says Meyer.
Commenting upon Foraker's remarks
Postmaster-General Meyer later gave
out the following:
I do not quite understand Foraker's charge
in the Senate today, because his statement
Itself show. that. notwithstanding the
President knew that Postmaster Bryson
favored Foraker. he sent In Bryson's name
for postmaster at Athens, O. Tn.e President
had previously directed me to hold up the
nomination. It having been alleged to him
that Bryson had been guilty of corruption
and had been a violent opponent of the ad
ministration polifies. After looking up the
matter. I notified the President that "the
charges had been investigated, were not
sustained and proved to be wholly unjusti
fiable. The President then directed me to
send In his name. It was accordingly sent
in as coon as the Senate re-assembled after
Ihe Christmas holiday. When the. Presi
dent gave- Mils direction to .end his name
In, he and I knew that Bryson was a friend
of Senator Foraker.

SLAUGHTER OF ESTIMATES
Refuses to Allow Cruisers, Ammu
nition, Repair and Mine-Laying
I Ships, but Allows Submarines
for Pacific Coast Defense.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10; By a vote of
IS to 5, one member absent and not vot
ing, the House cummittee on navul af
fairs today rejected the President's ur
gent recommendation that Congress at
this session authorize the building of
four battleships, at a total cost of t3S.
000,000, and by a unanimous vote there
was included In the naval appropriation
bill 'an authorization for the construc
tion of two, to cost t0,500.000 each and to
be of the Delaware type.
These Representatives voted in accord
ance with the President's recommenda
tion: Lilley, of Connecticut (Rep.);
Thomas, Ohio (Rep.); Myer, Louisiana
(Dem.); Talbott, Maryland (Dem.), and
Hobson, Alabama (Dem.). Hobson an
nounced after the meeting that he in
tended to make a minority report recom
mending authorization of four battle
ships. The preference stood in favor of
a four-battleship authorization, -but Ihe
voting attitude of the majority was ex
pressed by Chairman Foss when he said:
Ask What House Will dive.' .
"Experience has shown that It is more
profitable in the end to recommend In
the beginning what you know "the House
will stand for. A recommendation for
four battleships could not be put through
at this session."
The naval appropriation bill, as amend
ed and agreed upon by the committee,
carries a total appropriation of 1101,000,
000 for the Navy estimate for the next
fiscal year, about $24,000,000 fess: than
was asked for in the Department esti
mates. Under tbe head of new authorizations,
for whose fulfillment Congress Is bound
to appropriate money at the next session,
if the bill as recommended passes the
House and Senate, the committee included
two battleships at a cost of J19.O0O.O0O; 10
destroyers, $8,600,000; eight submarine
torpedoboats, $3,040,000; total, $30,540,000, or
$38,730,000 less than the total new author
izations asked by the Navy Department.
Recruit 8000 Men for Xavy.
Tie .new authorization estimates re
jected by the committee comprised the
following: Two battleships, $19,000,000;
four scout cruisers, $10,000,000; one am
munition ship, $1,750,000; one repair ship,
$2,000,000; two mine-laying ships (cruisers
to be converted), $500,000.
The committee, however, raised from
four to eight the number of submarine
torpedo boats asked for; held over for
further consideration and incorporation in
a special bill the matter of providing fleet
colliers; appropriated $400,000 for the pur
chase within the discretion of the Secre
tary of the Navy of three so-called sub
surface torpedo boats, their acceptance by
the Government to be contingent upon the
fulfillment of department requirements;
and Included an appropriation of $1,000,000
to enable the recruiting of 3000 additional
men to man newly completed battleships;
and authorized the recruiting of 3000 more
to become available after July 1, as rec
ommended by the Secretary of the Navy
and urged by the President. .
' Submarines for Pacific Coast.
No' provision was made for the' building
of a drydock at Pearl Harbor, near Hono
lulu. The doubling of the department's
estimate of four submarine torpedo boats
needed was largely influenced by letters
and petitions from Pacific Coast chambers
of commerce, more than a score of which
were received by members of the com
mittee. These boats, by the adoption of an
amendment offered by Representative
Loudenslager, of New Jersey, are to be
of the Octopus type In accordance with
the report of the Marix board, before
which last year's tests off Newport were
made. The effect of this amendment, if
the House and Senate concur In the com
mittee's report, may be to nullify the
court decision by which the Secretary of
the Navy gained the right to consider the
Lake type of boat as an after-competition
competitor.
