CONGRESS IN SESSION AGAIN
The Senate and House Regularly a*

Uie holiday recess, Mr. Grosvernor, of
Ohio, submitted the report of the merchant

being given until Friday to submit
their views. The House adjourned
until tomorrow out of respect to the
memory of the late Representative Mahoney,
of Illinois.

Senate Meets Aoain.
Upon re-convening after the holiday
recess, the Senate plunged directly into
the consideration of the bill for the
admission of two States to be composed
cf Arizona and New Mexico and OklahAia
and Indian Territory. A motim^by
Mr. Beveredge to take up the
Mil prevailed by a vote of 31 to 17. Mr.
Heyburn. who spnewcj his effort to
get up the pure food bill, voted with
the Democrats on roll call, but with
this exception the Republicans voted
solidly to proceed with the consideration
of the Statehood bill and the Democrats
solidlv against that course. A
motion by Mr. Bate, of Tennessee, to
recommit was voted down, Mr. Nelson
spoke at length in advocacy of the
bill.
Mr. Bate, in making his motion, said
it had been difficult to make a minority
report, as many of the sittings
of the committee had been held when
the Senate was in session, when members
of the minority could not attend.
He entered upon an argument
against consolidation of the four Territories
into two States. Referring to
the proposed union of Arizona and
New Mexico, he said they would make
a State of greater area than is comprised
in all the New England States
with New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania
added. The only reason for
the consolidation was found, he said,
in the desire to prevent an increase
of United States Senators.
Mr. Breckenridge said all the members
of the committee on Territories
had been notified of the committee
meetings and that failure to attend
was the fault of the individual members.
Mr. Bate admitted that due notice of
meetings had been given. "They
Ranted us to help make a quorum/'
he said, "but we did not come up with
the ante." The reference of the venerable
Senator to a popular game
caused a smile around the chamber.
His motion was voted down, 15 to 31. 1
me Senate adjourned.
Senator Bard occupied the entire

ment against the union of Arizona and

people of the two Territories do not '
ic.L'.:e it.
During the course of Mr. Bard's
speech he was interrupted by Mr. Tillman,
who said he wanted to make an
appeal for "white supremacy in Arizona."
To unite the two Territories
would, he said, be like joining Florida
with Cuba and to subject the white
people of Arizona to the domination of
Mexicans and "Greasers," which he opposed.
Several bills of minor importance
were passed during the day. and the
Senate adjourned until Monday.
Will Canvass Vote February 8.
The joint statehood bill again occupied
the majority portion of the attention
of the Senate, and Mr. Nelson com- :
Dieted his speech in support of it. 1
The omnibus claims bill was read in 1
part, but no effort was made to secure
action upon it. Bills for the reorganization
of ,the medical corps of
the army and regulating promotions
of army officers employed in the ordinance
department were passed. 1
A resolution reported by Mr. Burrows
from the committee on privileges

February 8, for the canvass by
the two Houses of Congress of the
vote cast at the last presidential election
was agreed to. The ceremony will
take place in the chamber of the House

No River and Harbor Bill.
The prospects are that this session
of Congress will not pass a rived and
harbor bill. The committee on rivers
and harbors has been considering a
bill for some time with a view of making
an early report, but among the !
leaders in the House there is a dispo- 1
sition to let the bill go over for this |
session, on account of the condition of
the Treasury. Cutting off a river and

determination of the House leaders to !

PORT ARTHUi
Russian Stronghold Sui
. Assaults Of
1ERMS OF SURRENDER ARE FIXES
Following General Stoessel's Common
Ication to General Nogi, Commit
eioners Representing the Two Com
manders Met at 4 O'Clock Monday
Afternoon and Subsequently Signed
Articles of Capitulation.
Port Arthur, whose hills have foi
months run red with the blood of the
bravest of the two war-like nations,
has at last succumbed to the fierce
tenacity of the Japanese attack. General
Stoessel, most stubborn in carrying
out the will of his sovereign, has
seen the advance of the besieging army
gain in momentum and energy until to
hold out longer would have been a
crime against humanity. The conditions
of the surrender are not yet known,
but in all quarters it is anticipated
that they are such a3 an honorable soldier
may accept from a brave and Victorious
enemy.
At 9:45 o'clock Sunday night the
commissioners completed the singing of
the capitulation agreement. Both
armies had suspended hostilities five
hours earlier. The city of Port Arthur
will be occupied by the Japanese.
The authorities at St. Petersburg, in
the absence of direct official news
from General Stoessel that Port Arthur
has surrendered, have not permitted
the news to become public. Emperor
Nicholas is in the south of Rus
sia, and his Ministers are for the time
being in the dark as to what dispatches
have been sent to him from
the front.
Tokio was the scene of rejoicing,
people of all ranks finding in the outcome
compensation for all the sacrifice
of life and money that was entailed
in the ten months' siege.
To what extent the fall of Port Arthur
will make for a restoration of
peace is an open question. There is an
encouraging note in the expression by
Baron Hayashi, Japanese minister at
London, of the hope that "in some way
it will facilitate final peace," though
the pacific note is perhaps lost in tne
later words of the minister, whicn call
attention to the tact that the besieging
army will now be free to go north,
where it will be an offset to the reinforcements
General Kuropatkin has
been receiving from Russia since the
battle of Shakhe. The spirit of the
Russians may be judged by the statement
of the secretary of the embassay
at London that the campaign will be
renewed with fresh vigor in the spring,
and that the nation will not be content
to perrr.it Port Arthur to remain in the
bauds of the Japacse.
Both in Paris and in London the
opinion is that tb? squadron under
Vice Admiral Rojcstyensky, which
started from Libau for-the far East
three months ago, will have to retrace
its way home, as adherence #to the
original plans would invite disaster
without probabliitiy of effecting a junction
with the warships at present in
the harbor of Vladivostock. That Japan
mav not be permitted to retain pos
session of Port Arthur without ufe.
Is shown in the fact that Paris newspapers
are already reviving the claim
made in 1901 that the holding of that
position commanding th^Eastern s;a3
by the Japanese would be a menace
to European powers.

You spoke to them, but they did not
give answer, only staring dumbly.
"The lack of ammunition alone
r would have suggested the seeking
of terms. Scant ammunition had long
1 teen common in the fortress, and during
the past month many of the forts
had nothing with which to return the
fire or the enemy.
."The Russians sat In the casemates,
, fifing not more than once to the two
hundred shots sent by the Japanese.
- When the assault came they repulsed
< the enemy with bayonets. But the
. men themselves, having existed for
three months on reduced rations, were
so worn that it is marvelous they
1 stood the final strain so long,
j "Yesterday General Stcessel would
i still fight. His wound, which was received
early in the siege, had been
bothering him, but his determination
1 to fight while one man stood had not
, been diminished.
"'But we cannot fight,' said his generals.
'Our men cannot move. They
sleep standing. They cannot see the
bayonet3 at their breasts. We can
order, but they cannot obey.'
" 'Then you generals fight,' said
Stoessel, clinched his fists.
"He seemed fanatical on the subjject,
but finally he was brought to see
j reason by the insistence of his subordinates.
Admirals Lochinsky and
Wiren, Generals Smirnoff and Fock,
and many others, sometimes with
broken voices, urged the step which
all dreaded so long.
"The greatest loss suffered by Port
Arthur occurred a fortnight ago, when
Major General Krondratenko was
ki.ied. Officers and men alike regarded
him as the brightest star in
Port Arthur's firmament. When his
death became known, the fall in the
spirits of the soldiers was plainly .visioie.

"General Nogi has taken Port Arthur
with his artillery and his tunnels. His
rifle bullets were seldom found to be
of any use.
"We who came here Monday do not
knew the terms of surrender sugested
by General Stoessel to General Nogi
nor the answer, having left Port Arthur
even before the messenger had
been dispatched. The general impression,
however, is that Stoessel has
proposed that the army shall go fre9
and that he alone be made a prisoner.
"It is a simple story. Had the ammunition
held out the fortress would
have held out indefinitely. For months
we held Port Arthur by bayonets
alone, until flesh and blood could do
no more. When a man fell there was
none other to replace him. Thus the
garrison wa3 gradually worn down.
Two hundred and Three-Meter Hill

Tokio Wildly Joyous.
Tokio, By Cable.?Tokio is wildly
joyous over Gen. Nogi's teelgram an!
councing that Gen. Stoessel had sent
a letter relating to the surrender of
Port Arthur. News boys crying extras
were the center of large crowds.
