Are Doing Day by Day. l?ate Bill By Tillman. With spirited debates on the sub jects of railroad rate legislation, aris ing through the introduction of a bill by Mr. Tillman to authorize the inter state comerce commission tb fix max imum rates, and the Panama Ganai, due to a controversy over the refer ence of tho emergency appropriation bill to a ttofflmittee Monday's session of tilts Senate continuously proved in teresting for more than four hours. An adjournment was taken without a mention of the late Senator Mitchell, of-Oregon, and so for the first time the death of a member was permitted to pass unnoticed by the Senate. After more than a score o? Senators had discussed the Panama, t?alial bill it was refercd to thc appropriations committee by a vote of 40 to 23. House Committees, The addition of a Republican mem ber io all of thc important committees of the House has enabled Speaker Cannon to solve thc difficult problem of committee assignments in a matter which apepars most satisfactory to both parties in the House. Only two important chairmanships were vacant, appropriations and public buildings and grounds. In filling the former, the Speaker followed precedent and looked the whole House for the avail able material. James A. Tawney, of Minn., was cho?en chairman of appro priations, and Richard Bartholdi, of Missouri, chairm-.n of public build ings and grounds. The minority committee places were decided on by Mr. Williams, thc minority leader. The changes of note are the transfer of Shackelford, (Mo.) and Lamar, (Fla.) from the inter state and foreign commerce commit tee and the substitution to their places of Bartless, (Ga.) and Russell, (Tex.) Messrs. Underwood, (Ala.) and Granger, (R. I.) wer named for the Democratic vacanicies on ways and means. Brief- Session of Senate. The open session of the Senate Tuesday was brief. One bill wa* pass ed. Mr. Taliaferro took the oath of of for his new term as a Senator. He was escorted by his colleague, Mr. Mallory, before . the vice-president, who administered the oath, tn the executive session Senatoi Lodge mov ed to send back to the committee on foreign relations tho treaty in rela tion to Santo Domingo affairs. Op position developed, and without ex- , plaining his reasons' for asking for the consideration of the treaty again by the committee; Senator Lodge with- , drew his motion. Senator Morgan said that before any amenments were voted upon or tE?^r??^-^ei^wit?; .; discussed, it ^i^Bm^Wi0:}i&fm been done' during---thc,.recela^oJ? tbje: Senate, ie tlnvp&v^?nsvv^ ? treaty had been carried out ^before the treaty had been ratified it was desirable to know why such action had been taken and by what authori al While the Lovering joint resolution, directing the 8'eeWt?ry of Agriculture to furnish certain information con senting the cotton crop is not taken very seriously as a piece of prospec tive legislation, a number Of people will doubtless be interested in the pro visions of the bill, and ll is therefore nve?i COVERING'S RESOLUTION Whereas, the estimate of the grow ing cotton crop made and published by the Agricultural Department on December fourth indicated a total pro duction in the United States for the season of nineteen hundred and five ane ninetenn hundred and si.* of ten million one hundred and sixty-seven thousand eight hundred and eighteen bales of live hundred pounds Gacli, gross weight; and Whereas thc census returns of the cotton ginned in the various States up to the first of December nineteen hundred and five, show that in the States of North Carolina, South Caro lina, Georgia and Oklahoma the yield for the entire season as estimated by the Agricultural Department had been more than ginned; and . Whereas neither the ?picking noi the ginning of cotton in thc State named, or in any other of the col ton producing States of the United States is completed by the first of - Decem ber, and that therefore the estimate of the Agricultural Department as to the yield of cotton in the States named is plainly *an understanding and likely to mislead, and damage thc cotton interests of the United States; and Whereas, in various other States where the picking and ginning is known not to have progressed toward completion even as fully as in the foin States named the amount of cotton ginned up to the first of Decembei shows that the Agricultural Depart ment's estimate of the yield is unques tionably an underestimate; and Whereas it is a matter of thc first importance to the people of the United States "that they be supplied with a more accurate estimate of this sea son's cotton crop; Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assem bled that the Secretary of Agriculture is directed to proceed immediately tc collect such data as may, in his opin ion be necessary for c. more correct estimate of the season's crop, and to publish the same on the tenth day of January, nineteen hundred and six. together with a full- and complete statement of the mejthod by which thc estimate is arrived af, and of the de tails of the various reports comprising said estimate See 2 That thc sum of twenty thousand dollars is hereby appropriat ed out of any money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, as a spe cial fund to defray thc expenses ot collecting and publishing such a re vised report. The Senate spent four hours Thurs day in discussing the Panama Canal emergency appropriation bill, and when it adjourned tho bill was still under consideration, There were set ipeoohes by Messrs, Teller, Scott and Mo^HP, and. they wera followed by a general debate iii which r..ll phases bf the eon) roveray1 Were exploited. A separate bill regal a lin;? the is suance of bonds for the canal ' and placing them on the same basis as other government bonds, was passed without debate, Tho flepllblientt hlemb?rs" bf the House, in caucus Monday unanimous ly declared in favor of admitting Ok lahoma and the Indian Territory as one State ami by ? Vot? of ?0 to 65 declared in favor of admitting Arizo na and New Mexico as one State. Both, SLatehood questions are to bc con tained in one bill. The only opposi tion to the program was directed against joining A?&ona And New Mex ico-. Debate on thc recommendation in the President^ flitnunl message re garding iiisiira'n??regulation occupied the House again Thursday Without a break. The House tlibh d^jb?r??d-. The Paiia?n? ijan?l Was again un der consideration by the Senate Fri? day and Mr. Tillman occupied the entire time given to that subject ex cept when he gave way to questions from or interrupted by other Senators. He did not indicate any intention of opposing the passage of the appro priation of opposing the passage of the appropriation bill, but ll? ?ritised the methods of the canal Commission in many of its thlHsacti?n?i When the Senate adjourned the bill was still pending, but there was an agreement for .i vole Saturdaj'. " The House devoted four and three quarter hom's to a lively debate on thc possibilities of Controlling insur ance companies-. No fjtiil?ht?ilin Was reached on th? committed reference of (he insurance feature of th? Presi dent's message Which is the matter uudel' Consideration, and the debate will proceed Saturday: The^ Hon?? indulged itself again Saturday to the extent of four hours of what was many time termed an academic discussion of Federal con .rol of insurance. It wm the fourth lay of the debate find the interest of :he members Il?tl appreciably dimin ished. The. holkl?.y i-e?esg Was fixed frorn, nt?xt ThuHstl?y to january 4. For tlie purpose of bringing out iu formation showing the existence of a ?ivil pension list, the House asked the President for the number of civil em ployes of tile gpV?fnitt?itt Who have readied tim age bf 70 years. Senate Passes Canal Bill. The Senate on Saturday passed the Panama Canal emergency bill. A suhslitue for Mr. Pincon'f* amendment offered ? hy Mr. Halo, was aPcepted. It specifically. C?tj?ire? illa! Congress shall bli supplied with a detailed esti mate of all salaries except those paid to laborors, skilled and unskilled. Otherwise the bill was passed ns re ported from committee. During the .lay Mr. Hale made the authorized ??houncemet BODY NOTTOBE EXHUMED Judge Watts Denies Petition of Fi delity Mutual Insurance Co. to Have Body of Dargan, the Dead President of Independent Oil Company Taken Up for Ex?mination^$26,PO0 Pol ?ey in Question. Cheraw, S. C., Special .-The first step to he taken by the Fidelity Mu tual Insurance Co., of Philadelphia, in an effort (o have the body of Robert Keith Dargan, the late president of the Independent Cotton Seed Oil Com pany, whose reported sui fido here some months Agu Mused a profound sensation, exhumed, failed Saturday before Judge Watt?; of the Circuit Court, who rc! sctl the petition of the company. D.-. .in was'insured in this company in tl um of $25,000. The attornc rgued that the testi mony set. for, \ the affidavits was based entirely hearsay and for this reason the com ; ould not be justified in ordering the body exhumed. In making his decision, Judge Watts stated thal he did not feel-that it was the court's business to?confirm these rumors and thal the facts in the case, as presented by the petitioners, did not justify ai\ order for thc re-opening of thc grave, inasmuch as the action was brought, by individuals. Had the request came from the solicitor Judges Watts stated that it would, in all probibilty have been granted. One of the attorneys of the petition ers stated that the company would be "in action at once along other lines to secure the desired end; It is probable that tltf-company Will make an effort to enlist the interest of the solicitor. Tlie hearing of Hie case has re vived, to no small extent, the inter est which attached lo the failure of thc Independent Cotton Seed Oil Com pany, the suicide of Robert Keith Dar zau the prcsirent, whose accounts were hundreds of thousand dollars short, and the sensational rumors to tlie effect that Dargan did not commit suicide and that he was still atyve At 'he time of his death, or supposed death, it was said that he had made an exhaustive study of hypnotism and mesmerism, as had also his brother, who was with him* at the time he was said to have died. Some rumors were to the effect that Dargan, when the coroner's jury viewed the body, was not dead but merely in a state of'hyp notism. It is a fact that neither the coroner nor any of the jurors touched thc body or made any examination. They were, to use a common expres sion, railroaded through the room where his body was. One of the argu ments of the attorneys for the insur ance companies at the hearing was based on this theory of hypotism. Since the day Dargans death was reported there have been many of the best citizens in this and surrounding '.owns and counties who have doubted the reality bf his death and this opin ion obtains now* without any dimin ution.
