WASHINGTON NEWS,
The Teller Resolution Dis
posed of.
DINGLEYIS OPPOSING LEADER
The Vote Stood 16 to 5 Against
the Measure.
Washington, Feb. 1. The ways
and means committee decided, by a
vote of 10 to 5, on party lines, to re
port the Teller resolution for payment
of bonds in silver with the recommen
dation that it be not passed.
The committee met on special call,
there being a full attendance, with
the exception of McMlllln, Democrat,
of Tennessee. Chairman Dlngley at
once brought forward the resolution
and, without discussion, Payne, of
New York, moved that it be reported
to the house with the recommenda
tion that it be not passed. Bailey, of
Texas, in behalf of the Democrats'
moved to amend that It be reported
with the recommendation that It
pass.
A vote on the Bailey amendment
was taken, resulting in Its defeat, by
a vote of 5 to 11, as follews: Yeas
Bailey, Whee'er, Roberts, McMlllln,
Swanson' all Democrats; noes Ding
ley, Dalzell, nopklns. Grosvenor,
Russell, Dolllver, Steele, Johnson,
Payne, Evans and Tawney, all Repub
licans. On the Payne motion the previous
vote was reversed, all the Republicans
voting the atllnnattve, and the Dem
ocrats in the negative. No amend
ments were proposed, and no discus
sion was Indulged in as to the program
as Dlngley stated that it would de
pend on the action of the ruled com
mltlec.
Following the session of the ways
and means committee, Speaker Reed
and his associates on the committee
on rules assembled to determine on a
course of action. The committee on
rules decided to take a final vote on
the Teller resolution at 5 o'clock this
afternoon. Bailey objected to this,
but was overruled.
vaJOLoudersbn, -Republican, -of Iowa,
followed tins oy presenting a special
order by the committee on rules for
the Immediate consideration of the
resolution.
Bailey, the Democratic leader, said'
that as his side desired as much time
as possible for the debate, they would
not consume the time allowed for roll
call. Wheeler aud Dearmond, Demo
crats.protested vigorously against'this.
After considerable discussion on both
sides, the house put an end to the in
cident by putting the question, and
the rule wa& adopted, 143 to 115.
A controversy followed over the di
vision of time. It was finally decided
that the time be equally divided be
tween those for and against the reso
lution. Dlngley opened the debate in oppo
sltlon to the resolution. The impor
tance of the resolution, said Dlngley,
lies in the fact that if concurred In
by the house it would be regarded by
the world as an expression of the de
liberate judgment of a majority of
the American people as to the stand
ard of honor and good faith in the
discharge, not only of national, but
also of private obligations.
"This resolution," said Dlngley, "Is
not presented for the purpose of se
curing an expression by congress as to
the power of the government either
as to the payment of Its obligations
or as to what may bo declared legal
tender, No one denies that this or
any other nation has the power to
pay in gold, silver, paper or copper,
according to their pleasure. Its obli
gations are measured by Its on sense
of honor and good faith. The dis
honor of the pending resolution Is in
its tail, and that stlnc. well-nk'h
harmless 20 iears ago under condi
tions then existing, is made doubly
harmful by the conditions of today.
"The declarations of the movers
and supporters of the resolution in
tne senate durlug Its recent consider
ation In that body, throw a Hood of
light ou what is meant by the phrase,
'to restore to Its coinage such silver
coins,' a phrase which In 1878 was
with good reason interpreted by many
who supported a similar measure, to
mean something vitally different from
what It must mean now."
Bland, of Missouri, made one of the
principal speeches-in favor of the res
olution. He called attention to the
votes of prominent Republicans who
voted against the bill to pay the
bonds In gold when the matter came
up in the last house.
In the senate today Chandler gave
notice that on next Friday, at the
conclusion of the morning business,
Your Tax

Tho senate session lasted six hours,
and two of the general appropriation
bills, that for the army carrying $23,
243,403; and for tho legislatl re, car
rying $21,058,5.0, were passed.
John McLaurln wassworn In as sen
ators from South Carolina to till the
unexpired termor thollato Senator
Earle, ending In 1903. Galllnger re
ported adversely the bill reported by
Allen, relative to pensioners.
The senate passed tho army appro
priation bill and took up the legisla

ation bill.
A telegram was received at the war
department from E. II. Wells, a news
paper man. who arrived at Seattle
from the Klondike, saying that he has
with him the long expected report
from Captain Ray to tlid secretary of
war, which he was charged to place
in the hands of the secretary himself.
CaptalD Ray was at Fort Yukon when
he sent his report on December 20,

In as much as the department offic

dition are very auxious to secure such
Information, without waiting for Mr,
Wells to make the trip across the con
tinent, he was telegraphed by Acting

Dying by Hundreds.
New York, Feb. 1. The Red
Cross line steamship liortia has ar
rived four days overduo from St.
John's, N. F., and Halifax, after a
desperate encounter with a pack of
ice off the Newfoundlanu coast, and
with a harrowing tale of blizzards and
destitution in tne coast section of
that country. Hundreds of men,
woman and chlldred arc dead or dying
from exposure und starvation .with
abundance close by, and hundreds
more are threatened with a like fate,
are tho conditions reported by the
Portia.
The Portia was penned In huge Arc
tic llocs in plalu sight of St. John's
unable to tuoye. She managed to es
cape by the merest accident. Many
other crafts, several of them relief
vessels sent by tho Canadian govern
ment to succor destitute fishermen,
had to abandon their crrcjnds of mercy
and return, to St. John's.nvhere they
were still In the ice whoa -the Portia
struggled Into clear water. '
Among tho detained licet at St.
John's were a dozen or more sailing
vessals loaded with codfish forEngland
and Brazil.
The city of St, John's was in a ter
rible condition on account of the bliz
zard, tho streets being rendered Im
passable. Railroads had suspended
work and the poor were suffering
through hunger and cold. The price
of food advanced until beyond tho
reach of the poor.
Several miles off shore the Portia
passed the steamer Grandland, fast In
the ice, and in a perilous, condition.

can line will Cfinti lin dlanlivnd In
Samoan waters by a man-of-war says
u uuruiu correspondent, xno yessei
will bo tho Mohican, which has been
converted Into a tralting-ship. Since
the arrival in Washington of ex-Consul-General
Churchill, the president
and assistant secretary of the state
have been convinced that American
interests demand that an American
man-of-war shall visit Samoa.
There is no intention on tho part
of the administration to abandon the
Interests of this government In Samoa
and Mr. Churchill does not recom
mend It although he says tho only
reason why this government should
continue Its hold on the Islands is
because it is morally bound to do so
by tho course pursued in the past.

. England and Japan,
London, Feb. 1. It is announced,
on the best authority, that the talk of
an Anglo-Japan concerted plan or ac
tion in certain eventualities is un
founded. No such matter has occu
pied the statesmen of the countries,
and no aggrccment exists between
England and Japan, except the desire
to securo the development of free
trade In China.
As regards Port Artliur,thc Russian
fleet, according to the same authority
Is only there for winter quarters, and

SYMPATHY FOR CUBA.
Substantial Aid Is Secured in Paris for
the Sutierers.
New York, Feb. 1. Dr, Sanchez
Agramonte, a general In the Cuban
Insurgent army, has Just arrived from
Europe, bringing $40,000 raised In
Paris for the ruban cause. Dr. Agra
monte says that popular sentiment In
France Is strongly In favor of the
success of the Cubans.
"Among people of allclasses,'' he
said, "there Is a desire that Cuba be
free. Tho French irovernmcnt is re
strained from taking any action in
ravororuuoa oy tne a rencii interest
in Spanish bonds.
"A part of my mission abroad was
to place before the Red Cross society
of the different nations the manner
In which our sick and wounded have
been treated In Cuba. I sent a mani
festo to tho Red Cross congress In
Vienna and talked with prominent
physicians and officials with a view
of Inducing France and other nations
to bring pressure to bear upon Spain
to recognize our Red Cross organiza
tion In Cubi. All that we want is
to have our wounded treated like those
of other nations."
Dr. Agramonte said that ho had
been promised the aid of persons of
Influence, but he did not know
whether Spain would grant their re
quest or not.
Indiana Disabled,
New York Feb. 1. A dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
There has been received at the navy
department nn official report from
Rear Admiral Slcard concerning the
Icakago of the tubes of tho battle-ship
Indiana which necessitated tho tow
ing of that vessel by tho cruiser New
York In order for her to keep up with
tho North Atlantic squadron,
That Rear Admiral Slcard did not
think tho matter was Important Is
shown by the fact that ho only men
tioned It In one paragraph of a letter
headed "Incidents of tho cruise from
Hampton Roads to Key West." Ho
stated that ono of the Indiana's
boilers began to glvo trouble, and In
order not to delay the passago to Key
West ho ordered tho New York to
take the Indiana in tow. Hawsers
were run out to the bartle-shlp, and
the Now York, aided by some of the
boilers which wero in good condition
on thejndlana, pulled tho battle-ship
along without much difficulty.
