C., Feb. 17,1902. Senator Perkins. o?3 California, is one of tho Republicans who openly re fuses to be controlled by tho adminis tration in his attitude toward. Cuba. He says this country hos already spent in behalf of Cuba, during and since tho war with Spain, $300,000,000, and that it ?3 under no obligation to grant Cu ban sugar and tobacco planters turill' concessions at the expense of our own farmers. Mr. Perkins said: "While 1 do not believe that we owe Cuba any thing, and while I believe that if wo once commence to afford assistanco to the island we will never end, lam will ing to vote for aid, provided it is not at the expenso of one.or two classes of producers in tho United States." Democrats are pleaded at tho seem ingly well founded report that the Re publican members of tho Senate Fi nance Committee have about decided that the bill repealing all the war tax es, which recently possed^bhe Houso and is now before that committee, shall be cut to the extent of $30.000,000 or $25,000,000 before it is reported to the Senate. In other words, that one fourth or more of the war taxes shall be left standing. If the Republican Senators will only live up to this re port, tho last vestige of doubt about the next House being democratic will be wiped out. Democrats are beginning to discuss the organization of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee which will manage this year's tight for tho control of tho next House. Repre sentative Richardson, of Tennessee, the democratic floor leader, who was chairman of the committee two years ago, is again mentioned for the posi tion . Representative Griggs, of Geor gia, is also being put forward as a suit able man for the place; also Senator Clark, of Montana, who has ber i chos en as-a member of the comn M'teo to succeed Mr. Kenney, of Dela? .- .re. It is usual to have some Senators on the committee, but not usual to give the chairmanship to a Senator, although it has been done. Influential Democrats from the Middle West are trying to get a man from their s ection made chair man, on the ground that the fight is likely to be hottest there. Representative Ryan, of Ba?lalo, N. Y., says the charge of corruption made by the Democrats against the Buffalo Republican municipal officiais has been fully proven, and that the evidence is not all in. The situation as summed up by Mr. Ryan stands thus: The city treasurer is under arrest, charged with grand larceny, and the full extent of his defalcation ia still in doubt; the j sheriff was removed by Gov. Odell for neglect of duty; the deputy county clerk has been sentenced to the peni tentiary for three and a half years for increasing jurors' vouchers and appro priating the money to his own use, and even the coroner has been brought into Court charged with robbing the dead at the morgue. Mr. Ryan thinks these thing-, riake it certain that Buffalo will elect democratic city officials at the next opportunity. With oqly one dissenting vote the Senate adopted the joint resolution proposing a Constitutional amendment changing inauguration day from March 4 to the fourth Thursday in April. Sen ator Stewart cast the lone vote against the resolution and;gave as his reason that to change inauguration day to more balmy weather would increase the crowd and the military show at in augurations, which might be danger ous in ease of a disputed ' election, like that of 1878. Mr. Stewart said that he thought the inauguration of cur Presi dent waa already too much like the coronation of a King, and that he had salway s been glad when bad weather reduced the attendance. Senator Hoar, in a tilt with Senator Platt, of Connecticut, over the Philip pine policy of the administration, said of some of Gov. Taft's statements: "I have learned to trust men, even the greatest and the best men, not by what they say, but what they do, and when Gov. Taft says that the Filipino peo ple want independence, and says at the same time nobody shall express the' 1 desire abovo his breath, I distrust his opinion and look for evidence of the fact. When ho says that people are enjoying American freedom, when ho promulgates a law which at the samo time makes it a penitentiary offense to read the Declaration of Independence on thu Fourth ol'July, I confess lam very little impressed by his judgment and very profoundly impressed by his odlct." - Representative Bell, of Colorado, has a'bill before tho House Ways and Means Committee that the Republican bosses could not stop if 'there was a chance for a record vote in it. It pro vides that national banks that have deposits of government funds exceed ing ?5,000 a month shall pay interest, not exceeding one-fourth of 1 per cent, and not less than one-tenth of 1 per cent, a month on the same, the depos its to be made with those banks which offer the highest interest. Mr. Bell has been looking over the booka of the Treasury. Ho finds that a few favored national banka now hold government deposita amounting to $116,000,000, up es ^rhich so interest whatever is paid, i Speaking of his bill, Mr. Bell said: j "Under my bill the Secretary of the1 Treasury iu designating depositories for public moneys shall cause the mon ey to be deposited in the nearest safo deposit whero tho collections aro made to avoid, so far aa possible, a plethora of money at one or moro places. I know tho bauks that have Government niou oyon deposit will howl against tho proposition tb require them to pay in terest', but if tho Government would offer to distribute ita deposits amoug tho national banks ott'erjug tho largest premium, there would bo no lack of bidders. I do not know what action tho Ways und Means Committeo will take in rofereuco to my bill, but I feel oonildent that tho ahb)oct will como up in tho House for debate beforo a groat while." It is now charged by thoso represent ing American augur growers'that? tho Cuban sugar growers have pulled tho wool over Gon. Wood's eyes, and that instead of making and selling sugar at a loss,, as'.Gen. Wood has said, they aro making a profit. Those who mado tho charge have invited tho House Ways and Means Committeo to sond a spec ial committeo to Cuba to investigate Tho committeo engaged in preparing the River and Harbor bill has decided that it shall not carry more than $00, 000,000, and tho Republican members of the committeo aro engaged in divid ing that amount up so that it will help elect aa many Republicans to tho next House ns.possible.

After games and music the guests were invited into the spacious dining room, ablaze with light and tinsel dec orations, whore elegant refreshments were served, consisting of crackers, salads, pickles, cheese-straws, fruits, cakes and ices.
