It Carried Appropriation Agrgrresat- Inr; Over Sixteen Million Dollars Exclasloa Bill Reported. WASHINGTON, Jan. IS. The House of Representatives was In session less than an hour today. Only routine business was transacted, the most Important feat ure of which was the reporting by Can non, chairman of the committee on ap propriations, of the urgent deficiency bllL The bill will be called up for considera tion next Monday. Kahn (Rep. CaL) Introduced the Chi nese exclusion bill agreed upon by all tho Pacific Coast interests as representing their views. It was referred to the for eign affairs committee, and Kahn sajs hearings tvIH bo begun next week and the bill urged to speedy considera tion in the House. Joy (Rep. Mo.), chairman of the com mittee on accounts, precipitated a -discussion involving some of tho patronage of tho House by presenting a resolution providing for the appointment of two ad ditional messengers. The resolution, after explanation, was adopted. Cannon, chairman or) the committee on appropriations, reported the urgent de ficiency bill and gave notice that on next Monday he would call it up for consid eration. He explained that the bill car ried appropriations aggregating more than $16,000,000. In answer to an inquiry, he expressed the opinion that near the close of the present session it would be nec essary to pass another urgency deficiency bill. He could not say, however, how much the next bill might carry. The following bills were passed: For the protection of towns in the In dian Territory, and providing that they may issue bonds to an amount not ex ceeding 5 mills on each dollar of taxable property of the municipality for the con struction of sewers, water works and .schoolhouses; providing that the amount of the official bond of the United States Marshal of Alaska may be Increased to $75,000 in certain circumstances. The Senate amendments to the House bill appropriating $90,000 for a Govern ment exhibit and floor space at the Charleston Exhibition was passed. The House, on motion of Payne, ad journed until Monday. The Republican members of the House who have been urging a caucus to cpn slder a reduction of war taxes have de cided not to press the matter until the ways and means committee completes consideration of the Cuban reciprocity question now before it. The Urgent Deficiency Hill. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. The urgent deficiency appropriation bill carries $16,-701,4-15. distributed among the different de partments. The naval items Include $4,000, 0G0 for armor on ships now under con struction. Among the more Important items Included in the bill are the follow ing: Rebates to tobacco manufacturers, as provided for in the war revenue reduc tion act, $3,150,000; establishment of per manent military post at Manila, $500,000; military ordnance, $250,000; nai'al ordnance, $300,000; expenses of Congressional party to funeral of President McKlnley, $6200; rural free delivery, $518,000. Probably the Item of most current In terest just now, in view of the coming of Prince Henry, is one appropriating $40,000 for the contingent expenses of the State Department. It has long been the cus tom of the State Department to hold a small fund of this character for the en tertainment of visitors and to meet other diplomatic emergencies which may arise. The amount carried in the bill for this fund does not necessarily mean that it will all be used for the entertainment of the royal guest, but as much will be available as Is needed. JUDGE BAKER'S APPOIXTMENT. Senate Committee Agrees to Report It Favorably. "WASHINGTON, Jan 18. The Senate committee on judiciary today agreed to report" favorably the nomination of Hon. Francis B. Baker, of Indiana, to be Clr cult Judge in the seventh circuit. The opposition to Judge Baker's confirmation was withdrawn, but the circumstances connected with his case were discussed at come length. There was special reference to the fact that his father is District-Judge of the Indiana district, and the point was made that with the son occupying the Circuit bench it would fall to his lot to review his father's decisions. There was, how ever, a general expression to the end that the prominence of a man's father should not be allowed to stand as a bar to his own preferment. It was suggested also that in such cases Judge Baker's own del icacy could be depended upon to find a proper solution of the problem. This view was accepted and the decision favorably to report the nomination was not opposed. Among other nominations which the judiciary committee decided to report favorably were those of Fletcher M. Doane and Richard S. Sloan to be Asso ciate Justices of the Supreme Court of Arizona. The Senate committee on postoffices to day authorized Senator Mason to report the bill granting the franking privileges to Mrs. McKlnley. DEMOCRATIC POLICY.

Several hundred delegates have already arrived hero' to attend the 13th annual conven tion of the United Mine-Workers of America, which will open Monday mprn ing. Fear is expressed that the conven tion will be unwieldy, as it is expected there will be over 1000 delegates, making It the largest convention ever held by organized labor. President Mitchell will preside. Ben Tillett, the famous English labor leader, will be the guest of the Min ers' Union Thursday. President Gompers. of the American Federation of Labor, also may visit the city. It is understood that the mlner3 will present a demand for an increase of at least 10 per cent over the wages they a. present receive, but it is almost equally certain that the operators will make a stubborn resistance, as many of them claim that they are cither operating at. a loss or at very small profit, Tho miners will also ask for an extension of the run of mine bosses to the districts where the screen basis now prevails. This has been In controversy for a long time, and will be an Important feature of the conven tion. An agreement, now exists as to wages, made here two years ago, and ratified at the Joint conference at Colum bus laet year. The fact that the miners have failed to unionize West Virginia may prevent them from getting an Increase at the present time, as the operators of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois claim that the West Virginia operators, who pay non union wages, -are able to undersell them. The union In West Virginia will probably receive considerable attention, as the miners are determined to unionize the state. The National Executive Board of the miners' met here today to take up griev ances that will be presented to the con vention. The Joint conference between the oper ators and miners will begin January 30. The miners this evening were rejoicing over the arrival of "Mother Jones," whom they regard with the greatest re spect and almost with reverence. She will make an address before the conven tion. It is expected that officers will be elect ed Tuesday next. President Mitchell, Vice-President Lewis and Secretary Treasurer Wilson stand for re-election without opposition. In addition, there are to be elected three members of the auditing and credentials committee, these two committees being combined in one this year for the first time. This, with the exception of the executive committee. Is the only standing committee of the or ganization. There will also be elected seven delegates to the American Federa tion of Labor convention. Nearly every state in the Union has a candidate for these offices. State Board Arbitrated Strike. MAYNARD, Mass., Jan. IS.
