NOT PREPARED YET. PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS IN BRIEF Governor-General Smith Gives Fur ther Advlco to Filipinos. Mnniln, Feb. 2. Tho Phlllppino as- sembly opened today with simplo cero monlps, President Osmcna presiding. Tho first business to coma before tho body was tho annual message to tho assembly of Govornor-GcneraT James F. Smith, which road, In part, as fol lows: "My lest word to tho Filipinos Is that until the great majority and not a small minority of tho citizens are pro pared to mnko intelligent ubo of tho franchise; until democratic usages and customs havo permeated throughout tho population, and becomo a part of tho daily 1 if o of tho people; until tho powor of unconscionable ugitntors and demagogues is broken; until education has created a just public sympathy that specious arguments and falso doc trines cannot destroy; until a citizen has not only tho powor to judge but nlso the courage to act for himself, tho best future of the islands lies with tho land which has given the Filipinos freedom of speech; liberty of the press; freedom of worship; tho right of tho accused to meet witnesses against him face to face; the exercise of tho franchise: free schools; auto nomy in municipal and provisional affairs; tho right to participate in making laws through the assembly, nnd many other rights, liberties and privileges not enjoyed by peoples which havo had Independence and na tional existonco for hundreds of years." Governor Smith deplored tho grow ing gulf botween tho Americans and tho Filipinos In tho Philippines, nnd strongly urged that they draw closer togothcr and act ip unity for tho best interests of both. Ills message sharp ly criticises tho municipal government of Manila and tho municipal police forco, tho personnel of which, he said, was not equal to that of tho house ser vants of the city. Tho provincial government, Governor Smith pronounced to bo entirely satis factory. Tho annual report on tho rovonues of tho Islands Bhows a decline of about a million pesos (about $500,000) for 1908 under tho figures of 1907. Treat All Aliens Alike. Sacamento, Feb. 2. Governor Gil lott mado public tonight tho text of a lotter received today from President Roosovolt with regard to anti-Japapeso legislation now pending in tho Califor nia legislature. President Roosovolt begins, by quot ing a letter from tho secretary of stato to Governor Glllett, In which Mr. Root said that ho saw no objection to tho passago of a law which treated all aliens allko In acquiring nnd transfer ring real property, but "To avoid con flict with tho constitution of tho Unit ed Statos, such Btatuto Bhould contain an expressed provision excepting from Its operation any rights secured by treaty between tho United States and foroign nations." Presldont Roosovolt then gives tho text of n memorandum from Secrotary of Stato Root, which, ho Bays, has his cordial approval. Chlnoso Laundry a Peril. Chicago, Fob. 2. Criminal nctlon may bo taken against Chinese laundry men who sprlnklo clofhes by blowing wntor through their mouths. Com plaints havo boen brought to tho atten tion of Health Commissioner Evnns thatdlsoaso has resulted from this practice. Theso complaints coihe upon tho heels of reports from Pater son, N.

ThoBttlo was mado to tho Jones-Scott company, who Bald this evening tho whoat wob No, 1 milling bluestom, and tho price was paid be cause it was worth tho amount in tho market Tho lot consisted of 1,000 Mcks. Friday, Fobruary C. Washington, Feb. G. President Roosevelt today received a report from a commission appointed to rcvlso and codify tho laws applying to safety of life at sea. It Ib known to contain a number of important recommendations, among them tho enactment of a law compelling the placing of wireless In struments on all largo steam and sail ing vessels. Ropresentatlvo Rurko wno hot suc cessful today In having reported to tho house his bill requiring passenger ves- solo to bo equipped with wireless tele graph. The subcommittee this afternoon re drafted tho Burko bill, but retained tho provision limiting its application to ocean vessels. Under the bill as agreed to, tho captain and owner of a vessel arc held criminally responsible for clearing without ji wireless equip ment. When Mr. Taft becomes president, ho will ride in an automobile furnished by tho government. That question was settled today by tho adoption of tho report of tho conferees on tho ur gent deficiency bill, which carries an item of 512,000 for tho "purchase, care nnd maintenance of automobiles for tho ubo of tho president." The appropriation of $500,000 to en able the secretary of agriculturo to continue his campaign against tho foot and mouth disease, which was also in dispute, was reduced to $160,000 and adopted. Another long session over tho nomi nation of W. D. Crum, tho negro col lector of customs at Charleston, S. C, who was reappointed by Piesident Roosevelt, was held by the senato to day, and no vote was reached. Demo cratic members made it clear that they did not intend that tho appointment Bhould be voted on tho present session. Among the republicans who spbko wero Smith of Michigan, Dixon and Beverldge. Thursday, Fobruary 4. Washington, Feb. 4. News of tho passage by tho California assembly to day of tho bill providing for tho segre gation of Japanese school children was received in official quarters hero with surprise and consternation. President Roosevelt immediately sent to Gover nor Gillett a telegram in which he de scribed the bill as "tho most offensive bill of all" and clearly unconstitu-1 tionnl. The governor's telegraphic re ply to the president was not made pub lic tonight. Tho president indicates clearly in his telegram to Mr. Gillett that ho had not changed in his attitude of two years ago, when he declared in his annual messoge to congress, submitted just before the visit of the San Francisco delegation, that "to shut them the Japanese out from the common schools is a wicked absurdity, when there are no first-claBS colleges in the land, including the universities and colleges of California, which do not gladly welcome Japanese students and on which Japanese students do not re flect credit" "Wo have as much to learn,", said tho president at that time, "from Ja pan as Japan has to learn from us, and no nation is At to teach unless it is also willing to learn." Washington, Feb. 4. Tho forest servico got its usual annual drubbing today, the criticisms against it coming principally from Smith of California, Cook of Colorado nnd Mondell of Wyo ming,' all of whom charged extrava gance in administration and the extor tion of money from .miners, farmers, and even the ownors'of beehives. Mr. Cook attributed to Mr. Pinchot, tho chief forester, tho ulterior motive of scheming for Secretary WllBon's seat in the cabinot. Doth Mr. Pinchot and tho forest servico wero vigorously defended by Mann of Illinois and Weeks of Massachusetts. All attempts to amend tho agricultural bill in any important manner failed. Congressional leaders have informed President Roosevelt that there is little clmnco of statehood for New Mexico and Arizona going through at this ses sion. Opposition in tho senato is given as the reason. Wednesday, February 3. Washington, Fob. 3. Goneral de buto on tho agricultural bill in the house today afforded critics and de fenders of tho department of agricul turo an excellent field day. Levor, of South Carolina, led off with an attack on the appointment and work of tho rofcrco board of consulting chemists in the department Heflin, of Alabama, asked on behalf of tho committee on growers fpr a governmental monthly report on tho consumption of cotton. Deforo tho bill, was taken up in gen eral debate tho house passed tho senate ponsion bill for Federal judges. In denouncing tho forest service, Mondell said: "I notice that next year the forests aro to bo protected, wator flow regu lated and resources conserved by the purchaso of $34,624 worth of type writers, $10,000 worth of paper; $22, 000 worth of, envelopes and $7,000 for nnr1 Inr1nrfl." Ho ridiculed tho appropriation of $10,000 for tho purcnaso or compassed, anvinrr (f. tit a inkn In tho West that the Eastern college-mado foresters must havo guides when they enter a iorest. Hope was also expressed that tho cm nlnvpn will ubo the $0,000 appropria tion for field glasses to seo at least i . " ...... . it 1 the homeseeker, '"nttnerto unnoucpa. Following closely tho introduction of a bill by Representative James Francis Burke, of Pennsylvania, to re quire ocean passenger vessels to bo equipped with wireless telegraphy, the house committee on merchant marine nnd fisheries today took it up.

At that time there wero 271 of them, but before a year naa eiapscu tno num ber ws reduced to 157. By 1877 thero wero not more than 112, and at tho pesent time there aro only 49. Tuesday, February 2. Washington, Feb. 2. Tha house locked horns today with tho senate on tho question of automobiles for the White House and refused to accept an amendment to tho urgency deficiency bill striking out the appropriation of $12,000 for that purpose. The bill was sent to conference. The hopes of tho army for sufficient money to continue its experiments in aeronautics were blasted when the house reconsidered its action of last week and by a vote of almost two to one withdrew tho increase of $500,000 then made. Tho army appropriation bill was passed and consideration of tho agri cultural bill immediotely begun. Lar- rinaga, delegate from Porto Rico, ad vocated a duty on other than Porto Rican coffee entering the United States. The increased appropriation for aeronautics was stricken out by 60 to 80 on a rising Vote.' On rollcall the appropriation was defeated, 90 to 161. This reduces the appropriation to the original sum of $250,000. An appropriation of $200,000 was mado for the purchase of automatic rifles. A long wrangle ensued over an amendment by Fitzgerald, of New York, limiting tho price of powder, except for small arms, to 64 cents per pound. The chair ruled the amend ment out of order. For the first time in Beveral years absolute party lines were drawn in the senate whenj on yesterday, an execu tive session was ordered to consider tho nomination of Dr. W. D. Crum to be collector of customs at Charleston, S. C. All the republicans on the floor voted to close the doors, while the democrats voted to proceed with legislative busi ness. When tho case was Called up i Senator Tillman asked that it go over until today, in resuming tho licht party lines again will be drawn, An agreement was reached m the senate today to vote February 23 on the Aldrich substitute bill for the ap pointment of a court of inquiry to de termine the qualifications of the dis charged soldiers of tho Twenty-fifth infantry. Monday, February I. Washington. Fb. 1.

Unless tho senate comes to their res cue, the West Point cadets will not hn able to attend tho inauguration on March 4 at tho expense of the govern ment By a point of order an item providing funds for the cadets trip to Washington was stricken from the mil- nary appropriation mil. Another item removed from tha h!ll was an appropriation for the construc tion of an asylum for refugees in time of war, and another for a storehouse on Corregidor island, in Manila bay. Secretary of tho Navv Nuwhnrrv iy. plained to tho senate committee on na val aitairs today tho reorganization schemo which he is putting Into effect in accordance with a recont oircnlnr. Ho said that ho was not for a general staff for tho navy, puch as the general staff Corps of the army, nor of any staff that might como botween tho secretary and tho president or between tho secre tary ana congress., All wtdowB of veterans of tho Civil War, tho war with Mexico nnd Tnrilnn wars will recelvo pensions at tho rate oi a month lr a bill passed by the bonato today is favorably acted upon by tho house.

Feb, 1. "I want tho vnrv rt icput innumiration In history!" That's what W. H. Taft said to half a dozen headllners In tho houso of rep resentatives on tho occasion of his last visit to Washington, and it goes to show that folks dpn't know what they aro talking about when they say that the president-elect Is trying to dodge all the frills and fuss and feathers at tending h induction Into office. Those members of congress with whom tho president-elect talked have been doing missionary work, to secure nk'dtres of cnouch votes to Insure tho passage of tho joint resolution autho rizing tho use of the pension office for tho inaugural ball. Four years irom now Washington will havo an immense auditorium to hold tho biggest crowd that ever gathered to honor a president But this year It Is a safo proposition that tho ball will bo held in the pen sion office and it will be a wonder. Tho programme is divided Into five important features and others of less interest First, tho imposing military division of tho pageant, which is being arrang ed on a big scale by Major-General J. Franklin Bell, who has been appointed grand marshal. Second, tho civic organization tuvi slon of tho parade, with Major Thomas P, Morgan, chairman of the committee in charge, as marshal. Third, the crreat display of fireworks on the White Lot, just in front of the White House, in combination with the illumination of the streets of Washing ton throughout the downtown section, the dome of the capitol and the Wash ington monument and a drill and dis play of pyrotechnics by the Republican Flambeau club of Minneapolis. Fourth, the inaueural ball in tho pension building, the biggest brick structure in the world. Fifth, the forenoon parade of Amer ican veteran soldiers and sailors of the G. A. R., the United Spanish War Vet erans and the Army and Navy Union, which will form the escort of honor for President-elect Taft and Vice-Presi dent-elect Sherman, from the White House to the capitol, where they will take the oath of office, preceding the big parade and other features. The latest reports from the chairman of the general committee indicate that the inauguration of Taft and Sherman will be a record-breaker, both as to features and attendance, and that there will be many innovations. HARRIMAN FORMS ARMY. Discipline and Advancement Are Main Features of Plan. Omaha, Neb.. Feb. 1. "The most diffiult problem that confronts, railway managements today is the education and training of the staff to fill posi tions." This statement was made by Julius Kruttschnitt, director of maintenance and operation, of all the Harriman Iines,m explanation, in part f a new plan of railway organization which is being tried out on the Nebraska divis ion of the T'nion Pacific road. Under the new scheme of organization, if it proves successful, all of the 100,000 employes will be transformed into an army, each member of which can aspire with hope to the highest position in the gift of the railroad for which he works. In fact it ifl the purpose of the Harriman management so to train this vast army that each private will become fitted to fill the position next above him. To accomplish these purposes Mr. Harriman hask given his heads of de partments carte blanche in the way of necessary expenditures, and his exam ple in this respect must of necessity have great influence upon other rail way managements. in- .ii.i in in i , v STUDENTS ATTACK JAP.

STORM HILLS MANY Six Southern Slates Swept by Terrific Winds, PROPERTY DAMAGE VERY GREAT Dwellings Demolished, Wires Down and Much Suffering In Alabama . Texas and Tennessee. Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 6. A storm of unusual violence equaling a tornado in destructive energy at many points, swept over parts of Texas, Olkahoma, Tennessee, Alabama and other South ern states today, leaving in its wake a path of ruin and death.

One or the smokestacks was on the power company's plant and as the bricks fell tbey crashed down into the engine room, ruining the dynamos and ma chinery, and leaving tho city in darkness. Throughout the storm-swept region wires are down, and in many places tho railroads are blocked by trees' and gen eral debris blown on the tracks. Com munication between the different towns is extremely difficult and full details of the storm damage will not be learn ed until tomorrow. Mayor George H. Brier, of Cullman, Ala., wires that seven persons are known to have been killed in that county this afternoon by a tornado, but that wire communication is cut off with the stricken locality. At Kayoa, a mining ramp west of Birmingham, on the Southern railway, today, five houses were blown down, but only ono man was injured, a Mr. Logan.
