Curative Properties of Swamp-Root House Disposes of War Tax Measure. To Prove What the Great Kidney ajid Bladder Remedy, Swamp-Root, Will Do for YOU, Every Reader of "The Oregonian" May Have a Sample Bottle Free, THE DEMOCRATS DID NOT VOTE Defeat of Smith's Express-Receipt Amendment Tlie Pension Ap propriation Bill Warn Passed in Thirteen Minutes. WASHINGTON. Dec. 15. The House to day passed the war revenue reduction bilL The opposition sought to recommit the bill with instructions to report back a measure reducing the revenue at least $70,000,000 and Including a provision for an income tax, so drawn as to escape an adverse decision of the Supreme Court. The motion failed, 131 to 155. Thereupon the bill was passed without the concur rence of the minority, who refrained from voting. The amendments placed in the bill jesterday to tax express receipts was defeated on an aye and no vote in the House, 125 to 139. The pension approprla-'j tlon bill, carrying 5145,115,30, was passed In exactly 13 minutes. Robert TV. Wilcox, the Delegate from Hawaii, was sworn in immediately after the approval of the journal in the House. "Wiloox was escorted to the bar of the House by Perea, the Delegate from New .Mexico. After the oath had been admin istered, many members came forward to congratulate Wilcox. The consideration of the war revenue reduction bill -was then resumed. Underwood (Dem. Ala.) mo ed to reduce the amount of property exempt under the inheritance tax from $10,000 to $5000. Payne (Rep. N. Y.), In charge of the bill, said that personally he thought the Inheritance tax should not have gone in the original act, as the states generally, and especially the Eastern states, levied heavy inheritance taxes. But, if it was to remain, he was opposed to reducing the exemption to $5000. The amendment was lost, 45 to 83 Powers (Rep. "Vt.) offered an amendment providinir that the inheritance tax should not be levied on the estates of persons who died prior to June 13, 1S98. It was adopted, 80 to ISO. Newlands (Sll. Nev.) offered a modifica tion of the amendment he presented yes terday to tax industrial corporations, whose cross receipts exceed $509,000, one twentieth of one per cent upon such re ceipts. His purpose, he said, was to reach the great aggregations of wealth. "The real purpose of this amendment is to apply an Inquisition to Incorporations', is it not?" demanded Pearce (Rep. Mo.). "Its purpose," replied Newlands, "Is both to raise revenue and to secure some thing upon which to base relative legisla tion." "Has the gentleman changed his mld since he signed the report saying the pend ing bill would raise too much revenue?" asked Payne. "My objection to the pending bill," re sponded Newlands, "Ls two-fold. It raises too much revenue and it does not raise it from the proper sources." Grosvenor (Rep. O.) opposed the amend ment. He expressed the hODe that the House wouldr.ot attempt to .make In roads upon industrial corporations with out investigation by the proper commit tee of the House. "Why attack Industrial corporations?" he asked. "If you will frame an amendment that will reach every -corporation or eery in come, I will vote for it," observed New lands, amid applause. Grosvenor said he might favor an In come tax if it were constitutional, but said it was futile to discuss an income tax after the decision of the .Supreme Court. Sulzer (Dem. N. Y.) supported the New lands amendment. He was in faor of exempting consumption and compelling the big corporations to boar their hare of tax burdens. He favored a graduated corporation tax. The amendment was lost, 75 to 150. Fitzgorald (Dem. Mass.) moved to strike out the lax of 10 cents per pound on tea. Pajne opposed the amendment. The tax on fea, he said, raised about $9,000,000 of revenue, and for 10 years had been asked for by the tea trade. The amendment was defeated, 86 to 76. After the bill had been read Levy (Dem. N. Y.) offered a substitute fixing the tax on beer at $1 50 per barrel, C cents upon tobacco and snuff, and repealing' all the other sections of the war revenue ac The substitute was defeated without di vision. After the bill had been reported to the House, Payne demanded a separate vote on the Smith amendment placing a tax of 1 cent on each express package. Underwood demanded a separate vote on the Powers inheritance tax act, which specifically exempted the estates of per sons who died prior to June 13, 1SK. On an aje and no vote, the House reversed its action of yesterday and defeated the Smith express receipt tax amendment, 125 to 186 The Powers amondment was adopted, St to 53. Richardson (Dem. Tenn.), on behalf of the minority, then movea to recommit the bill with instructions "to forthwith report a bill reducing the revenues under a war revenue act at least the sum of $70,000,000. the taxes remaining to be so apportioned as to be more equally and jusuy msiriDuteu, ana remove them from the articles most necessary to life and which enter generally into consumption." The committee also included a provision in the bill so as to accomplish the just ends of an Income tax and et escape the decision of the Supreme- Court of the United States in the cases growing out of the Wilson tariff bill. Hopkins (Rep. TIL) observed facetious ly that the motion was subject to a point of order. "It instructs the committee to report back an income tax provision that will circumvent the decision of the Su preme Court," said he. "Plainly that is requiring the committee to , perform an Impossibility " The motion to recommit was lost, 131 to 1S5. The bill was then passed, the Demo crats refraining from voting. On motion of Barney (Rep. Wis), the House went back into committee of the whole and took up the consideration of the pension appropriation bill. Barney stated that there was no new legislation In the bill. It was an exact copy of the bill for the current yoar, both as to lan guage and amount. It carried $145,145,290. The bill was read through and passed without debate or amendment in exactly 13 minutes The Speaker announced the resignation of Marsh (Rep 111.) as a member of the Booz investigating com mittee, and Dick (Rep. O.) was appointed in his stead Dick becomes chairman of the committee. At S:35 P. M. the House adjourned. Bankruptcy Amendment Postponed. WASHINGTON, Dec 15. The Senate and House Committees on Judiciary have reached an agreement to postpone con sideration of the Bay bill for the amend ment of the bankruptcy law until the next Congress. The bill was drawn on the recommendation of the National As sociation of Referees, the mpmbers of which wer appointed under the terms of the bilL It provides recommendations for defects in the law so far as they have come to the surface, but there are now bankruptcy matters before the United States Supremo Court, the decision of which may make necessary amendments other than those suggested. Rtptrters Have Convincing Interviews With Prominent People Regarding SIXTY-FIFTH POLICE" PRECINCT, GREATER NEW YORK, Oct. 11. 1900. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Blnghamton. N. Y.: Gentlemen In justice to you, I feel it is my duty to send you an acknowledg ment of the receipt of the sample bottle of Swamp-Root you so kindly sent me. I had been out of health for the past five years w ith kidney and bladder trouble. -Had our best physicians prescribe for me. They would relieve me for the time be ing, but the old complaint would in a short time return again. I sent for a sample bottle of Swamp-Root, and I found it did me a world of good. Since then I have taken S small bottles bought at my drug store, and I consider myself perfectly cured. It seemed as though my back would break In two after stooping. I do not have to get up during the night to urinate, as I formerly did threb or four times d night, but now sleep the sleep of peace. My back Is all right again, and In every way I am a new man. Two of my brother officers are still using Swamp-Root. They, like myself, cannot say too much in praise of it. It is a boon to mankind. We recommend it to all humanity who are suffering from kidney and .bladder dis eases. My brother officers (whose signatures accompany this letter), as well as my self, thank you for the blessing you have brought to the human race in the com pounding of Swamp-Root. We remain, yours very truly, JAMES COOK. Officers of the C5th Police Precinct, HUGH E. BOYLE, Greater New York. JOHN J. BODKIN. Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trouble. "You have no idea how well I feel. I am satisfied that I do not need any more medicine, as I am in as good health as I ever was In my life." So says Mrs. Mary Englehardt, of 2S35 Madison street, St. Louis, Mo., to a reporter of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. i'For more than 10 years I had suffered with what the doctors termed female trouble; also heart trouble, with swelling of the feet and limbs. Last Summer I felt so badly that I thought I had not long to live. I consulted doctor after doctor and took their medicines, but felt no better. The physicians told mo my kidneys were not affected, but I felt sure that they were the cause of my trouble. A friend recom mended me to try Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and I must say I derived immense benefits almost from the first week. I continued the medicine, taking it regu larly, and I am now in splendid health. The pains and aches have all gone. I have recommended Swamp-Root to all my friends, and told them what it ha3 done for me. I will gladly answer any Uone who desires to write me regarding my case. I most heartily Indorse Swamp Root from every standpoint. There is EDITORIAL NOTICE-Swamp-Root. the great Kidney. Liver and Bladder renjedy.

BE- Slim Attendance in the Senate Ye terdny Many More Amend ments Offered. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15. The Senate transacted no business of importance to day In open session, the entire time being spent in executive session on the Hay Pauncefoto treaty. Nelson (Rep. Minn.) gave notice when the Senate convened that January 12 he would present resolutions relative to the death of his colleague, air. Davis, and ask that business be suspended to pro nounco eulogies on the distinguished serv ices of the deceased. A bill was passed amending the criminal laws of the District of Columbia relative to the deposit of money as surety. Considerable minor routine business was disposed of, and then, at 12.25 P. M., on motion of Lodge (Rep. Mass.) the Senate went into executive session. Teller (Sll. Colo.), continued his argu ment against the treaty. He contended irtr?vPXh!m0J f, "SfL!!! wbrga5 ! A treaty at any time, and said it would i he perfectly competent for the United States to cancel arbitrarily the agreement with Great Britain whenever this country might deem It desirable. After the proceedings had continued for some time, and when it became apparent that many Senators were not in the cham ber, the absence of a quorum was sug gested, and when the call brought in a sufficient number to allow business to proceed, a mild filibuster was started to secure an adjournment until Monday. It is the opinion of the friends of the treaty that its opponents are trying now to find means of postponing the final vote on the treaty until after the holidays. At 2 o'clock there was a motion to adjourn and the aye and no vote was demanded upon it, . The motion was voted down. Efforts were made to reach aji agreement for a vote on the treaty, but they were unavailing. At 2 45 P. M. the Senate ad journed. After the session Lodge expressed him self as confident of securing an agreement to vole before the holiday adjournment. In addition to the amendments to the treaty suggested by the committee on for eign relations, the following have been offered by individual Senators: By both Elklns and Penrose Insert at the end of section 5, of article 1. to follow the amendment proposed by the commit tee and adopted in committee of the whole, the following: "But nothing con tained in this treaty shall be construed to prevent the United States from ac quiring at ny time sufficient territory and sovereignty over the same upon which to build, manage, operate, defend, fortify, protect and control said canal, or for any further purpose as the United States may deem best in its own interests." By Beveridge Amend by striking out article 3 of the proposed convention. By Allan Amend article 1 by striking out the word "under, ' in line 33, "page 2, and inserting the word "by"; strike out the words, "auspices of the, at the be ginning1 of line 14, and ihe words "either directly." at the end of the same line; and etrlke out the following in lines 13, 16 and IT: "Or by gift or loan of money to individuals or corporations, or through subscriptions to or purchase of stock or shares," so that when thus amended the article will read as follows: "Article 1 It is agreed that the canal may be con structed by the Government of the Unit- such a pleasant taste to Swamp-Root, and it goes right to the weak spots and drives them out of the system " MRS. MARY ENGLEHARDT. ed States at Its own cost and that subject to the provisions of the present conven tion, tho said Government shall have and enjoy all the rishts incident to such con struction as well as the exclusive right of providing for the regulation and man agement of the canal." By Tillman Amend by striking out the amendment reported by the committee and adopted in committee of the whole and Inserting at end of article 2 the fol lowing: "It is agreed, however, that none of -the foregoing conditions and stipula tions of this article shall apply to meas ures -which the United States may find it necessary to take for securing by Its own forces the defense of the United States and the defense of public order." By Butler Amend by striking out sec tion 7, of article 2, of proposed conven tion. Mason gave notice of the following amendment, which he said he would offer Monday next, when he would address the Senate on the subject: "If the Govern ment of the United States shall construct, at Its own expense, the said canal, then nothing herein contained shall prevent the United States from protecting said canal in any -way it may deem best for the interests of the United States." REArrOKTIOXMEJVT BILL. Sentiment of the House Committee Xot Yet Shown. ' commute; on census began" its consldcra. tJon of the reapportionment bill todaj WASHINGTON, Dec. 15. The HouseJ today and by a vote of six to Ave expressed a preference for leaving the representation of the House of Representath es at 257, as at present. This vote was not considered a finality, however, as several members were not present, but was taken nomi nally as a preliminary test of the senti ment of the members. There are a num ber of bills before the committee, nut the main discussion turned on the Hop kins bill, keeping tho total of the House as at present, and the Burleigh bill, in creasing the total. The vote was taken on the issue between leaving the House as at present or increasing without refer ence to any particular bill. In order tq permit absent members to be present. and vote, the committee adjourned untft 2 o'clock Monday. Chairman Hopkins says he hopes a favorable report will be agreed upon at that time, in which case he will report the bill at once and endeavor to take It up in'the House next Tuesday. The advocates of increasing the mem bership pf the House do not consider tho vote of today as in any way decisive, as one of the absent members was quoted at the meeting as favorable to an. in crease and other absent members are said to he doubtful, but rather inclined to an Increase. After the vote had been taken, those seklng an Increase moved an adjournment in order to postpone final action. They succeeded In this, carrying the adjournment against the wishes of those favorable to leaving -the representa tion as at present The condition was caused by the arrival of Russell, of Con necticut, who did not, however, express his views for or against an increase. Dclccnte "Wilcox Sworn In. WASHINGTON, Dec 15. Delegate Wil cox, of Hawaii, recently elected to rep resent the Islands in the House, arrived in Washington today, and was sworn in as a delegate to the House. Mr. Wilcox Is not unknown here, having been present whila the Hawaiian legislative bill was being perfected. The delegate says Ha waii experienced considerable excitement at the initial election, but now quiet' Is restored and the islands are prosperous, The people feel, he says, that they have more advantages than ever before, and 1 the election afforded them an opportunity of learning the power entrusted to them. Mr. Wilcox will propose some changes in the Hawaiian law, Including an amend ment whereby the Hawaiian language Wonderful Cures by SwampRaot How to Flnd Out If You Need Swamp-Root; It used to be considered that only urin ary and bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all diseases have their beginning In the disorder of these most important organs.

(Continued from First Page.) unlikely, therefore, that some measure will be introduced and advocated having for Its object the restriction and limita tion of the traffic. What form this mea sure will take Is now unknown, but the dispensary bill would seem to be an idle dream. Another matter of importance to come before the Legislature will be the re apportionment of the state into legisla tive districts. This matter was set forth I in detail In last Wednesday's Issue Of J. he Oregonian, and need not be discussed at this time. It will probably cause more contention between conflicting Interests than any other measure CnndldnteN for Speaker of House. The leading candidates for the Speaker ship of the lower house are R. B. Albert son, of King; J. H. Easterday, of Pierce; A. J. Falknor, of Thurston, and Harry Rosenhaupt, of Spokane. Mr. Rosenhaupt Is an aQwed Wilson man, which elimi nates him from the race without further discussion. Mr. Falknor lives In Olympia and is identified witlv the much-mooted state capitol matter. Moreover, his home delegation consists of only one member Reside himself and he is thus deprived .of any i great home.support wherewith to make combinations. The contest would thus seem to be be tween Messrs. AlbertsOn and Easterday, with the chances In favor Of the former. There is some opposition toward giving the honor to this county, however, and the choice may fall upon either Mr. Easterday or a dark horse. For yew State Capitol. Another effort will be made, without doubt, to secure an appropriation for the building of a state capitol. Governor Rogers' well-known Tiostlllty to the peo ple of Olympia Is said to have modified somewhat, and an agreement may be reached between him and the Olympia business men whereby he will sign a bill I tor the erection of a substantial, though not costly, capitol. Two years ago he advocated the purchase of the Olympia Courthouse for a capitol building, and he says he is oil 11 in favor of that plan. This Is a matter concerning which little will be said or done until the Legtslar ture Is actually In session. The Lnvrson Yacht. BOSTON, Dec 15. There is more or less speculation among local yachtsmen on the probable speed of the big yacht that Crownlnshield will design for a cup defender based on a statement credited to him that he would expect to be five minutes faster than the Columbia over the course in an average breeze. It la understood that the designer has had a full set of the working plans of the Co lumbia for a long time, and is therefore qualified to make a prediction.

PORTLAND, Me., Dec 15. A special to the Press from Washington says: The exact condition of Representative Boutello's health has been given In writ ing by Dr. Edward Cowles. superinten dent of the McLean Hospital, Waverly, Mass., in connection with the proposition to place him on the retired list of the Navy. Dr. Cowles says: "Charles A. Boutelle has been a patient In this hospital since December 27, 1S99. His mental disturbance, disorder of speech, etc, are symptomatic of brain disease associated with chronle renal and cardiac lesions. The patient is intelligent In the expression of his own thoughts and In the understanding of other persons, ex cept for the remaining mental disturb ance, which at times becomes aggravat ed. The further progress of Mr. Bou telle's illness depends upon that of the renal arid cardiac disease and further cerebral changes. At the present time the , indications are riot so favorable as for merly for a degree of recovery of which there has appeared reason for being hope ful, but his mbntal Improvement Is like ly to continue and he may be expected to become well enough to return to his own home. In my own opinion he should never resume the cares of active life or under take any business responsibilities, and he may live but a few years." - WANTS HIS CHURCH BACK.

This request ha3 not been complied with, and he has Instruct ed his attorney to prepare a bill In equity1 to ask the courts ta compel the wardens and vestrymen -tar -turn, tho property over to him. Mr. Scripps claims that the church was built and delivered to the so-, clety with the understanding that no high church -services shoum ne neia tnerein. This understanding. Mr. Scripps says, has been violated, and he has withdrawn from the church In conrequence. He demands the return of the property in order that the service for which it was designed may be held there.
