Senator Allison Explains the
Currency Bill.
Close of House Debate on Porto
Rico Tariff.
Some of the Dissenting Repub
licans Fall Into Line For
the Measure.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Soon after
he BPiiato convened twlny Mr. Aldrloh
R. I.) ratlin! up the coiifrrvnee report m
he financial bill and made nn rxplunu
.ion of the differiuuTs between the sen
ate bill and the conference bill.
The last of the stniscle over the Porto
Rico tariff bill in the houxu opened at 11
o'clock with nlmoKt every member in bin
neat and a largo uttenduuee in the gal
leries. Immediately nfter the ronditiR of the
journal the clerk begun readiiiK the bill
(or amendment under the live minute
rule. When section 3 whs reached, Mr.
Payne, chairman of the wnya and means
committee, offered the following substi
tute for that sect inn:
"Section 3. That on and after the pas
sage of this act all merchandise coming
into the United States from Porto Kieo
and coming into Porto Ilico from the
United States shall be entered at the sev
eral ports of entry upon payment of 15
per cent of the duties which are required
to be levied, collected and paid upon like
articles of merchandise imported from
foreign countries, and, in additiou thereto,
upon articles of merchandise of Porto
Itican manufacture coining into the Unit
ed States and withdrawn for consump
tion or sale upon payment of a tax equal
to the internal revenue tax imposed in
the United States upon the like nrtieles
of merchandise of domestic manufacture,
such tax to be paid by Internal revenue
stamps or stamps to be purchased and
provided by the commissioner of internal
revenue at or most convenient to the port
of entry of said merchandise in the Unit
ed States and to be effected under such
regulations as the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, with the upproval of the
secretary of the treasury, shall prescribe,
and on all articles of merchandise of
United States manufacture coming into
Porto Kieo, in addition to the duty above
provided in payment of a tax equal in
rate und amount to the internal revenue
tax imposed la Porto Kieo upon like ar
ticles of Torto Itican manufacture."
Mr. Payne explained that the substi
tute did two things. It reduced the duty
from 25 to 15 per cent, and it also re
moved some confusion regarding double
taxation. Mr. Payne snid he still ad
hered to the opinion that 3 per cent
would be better than 15, because it would
raise more revenue, but 15 per cent was
better than nothing. In answer to a
question as to how much the bill as
amended would raise, Mr. Payne said the
estimate for the original bill was $1,700,
000. If that estimate was correct, the
emended bill would raise about $1,250,
000 per annum. Mr. Payne took occa
sion to reprove some of his critics who
had complained that he had given no ex
planation of his cliange of front. His
speech and his report, he said, gave a full
explanation. He had believed in free
trade with Porto Kieo at one time, but
subsequent information hail convinced
him that the duty proposed by the pend
ing bill should be imposed.
Mr. Kerry (Dem., Ky.) said the amend
ment proposed petty instead of grand
larceny of the people of Porto Rico. He
ridiculed the luborious debate through
which the house had passed over the
question of whnt the "United States"
meant under the constitution. If this
country had been called "I'olunibiu" in
stead of the "United States," 1.2(H) page
of The Congressional Record could have
been eliminated. No one would have
Lad the hardihood to contend then that
the constitution did not extend over
every foot of the soil.
Mr. le Armonil (Dem., Mo.) railed at
tention to the peculiar language of the
substitute. The words "coming 'into
the United States," he said, were plainly
Tended to evade the constitution. Hut,
nrgueil, the "murdering of the queen's
glish" and the violation of the canons
of language "could not make It consti
tutional." Mr. Grow (Rep., Pa.), the venerable
ex-speaker of the house, and Mr. Graff
(Rep., Ills.) Bpoke briefly in support of
the bill. The lutter said his constituents
expected him to abide by the will of the
majority of his party. He did not desire
to go back to his district to apologize for
his party by announcing that he was
right and it wus wrong. He referred
to the history of the efforts of the Demo
crats to prematurely force the adminis
tration Into the Spanish war In vindica
tion of the policy of standing by the ad
ministration. Mr. Fitzgerald iDem., Mass.) in oppos
ing the bill referred to the expressed de
termination of Secretary Root to increase
the number of native troops in Porto
Rico. Mr. Fitzgerald wanted to know
to what nation those native troops be
longed. Were they to be told that the
American flog they were sworn to defend
meant oue thing for Porto Rico and an
other to the United States? Were they
to become American citizens at 15 per
cent off?
Mr. Bromwell (Rep., O.), who has
hitherto opposed the bill, after paying
bis respects to some of his Ohio col
leagues (Grosvenor and Shattuc), said
that he waa now convinced that the ad
ministration which three months agi rec
ommended free trade for Porto Rico now
earnestly desired the passage of the bill.
Tt mattered little whether he returned to
.-ongress, he suld, but it was of great im
portance that the Republican party
should remain iu power. His announce
ment that be had decided to stand by his
party in the present emergency was
greeted with applause.
Mr. Grosvenor (O.) said that much of
the opposition to the pending bill was
due to the fact that It was misunder
stood. As late as lust Saturday night
thneditor of prominent Republican pa
per had mude the statement to him that
the bill proposed that we should put our
hand Into the pockets of starving Porto
Kicans. When he learned that all the
money collected at both ends of the line
went to thu Porto Kleans, he was aston
ished. He !Ui4 also a letter from 'a dis
tinguished divine complaining of the pro
posed robbery of the Porto Ricans.
Mr. Otcy (Dem., Va.) followed Mr.
Grosvenor with a speech which convnls
fd the house and galleries. He mimicked
the mannerisms of some of the Repub
lican lenders, concluding with a parody
upon the speech of Mr. Cannon (Rep.,
Ills.) yesterday.
The Payne amendment was adopted
without division.
Mr. Payne then offered the following
additional section n greed upon at the
conference of Republicans on Monday
night:
"This net shall be taken and held to be
provisional In its purposes and intended
to meet a pressing present need for reve
nue for the island of Porto Rico and shall
not continue in force nfter March 1,
1002."
Mr. Powers (Rep., Vt.). who was the
author of the amendment, supported It.
With him, he said, there was n question
as to the constitutionality of the bill and
one as to Its expediency. A rase was al
ready in the courts, he said, which would
eventually settle the question of consti
tutional law. As to the expediency, this
section would make the measure tempo
rary and provisional. It was, he under
stood, satisfactory to the president, and,
that being the case, he was willing to
give the amended bill his support.
CCEUR D'ALENE INQUIRY.

and refused to do the work on account of
illness the negro soldiers used obscene
language and oaths against him until the .

LONDON, Feb. 28.-The war office
lias received the following dispatch from
General Ruller, dated headquarters,
Hlnudwaiil, Feb. 28, 5 a. in.:
"Finding thut the passage of I.nngo
waeht's spruit wns commanded by strong
intrenclinieuts, I recotinoitered for an
other passage of the Tugelu. One wns
found for me below the cataract by Colo
nel Siindbach, Roynl engineers, on Feb.
25. We commenced making mi approach
thereto, and on Feb. 20, finding that I
could make the passage practicable, I
crossed the guns and baggage buck to
the south side of the Tugela, took up the
pontoon bridge on Monday night ami re
laid it lit tile new site, which is just
below the point marked cataract. Dur
ing all this time the troops had been scat
tered, crouching under hastily construct
ed small stone shelters, and exposed to n
gulling shell mid rille tire, and throughout
they maintained the most excellent spir
its. Tuesday General liarton with two
battalions of the Sixth brigade and the
Dublin fusileers crept about a mile and a
half down the banks of the river nnd
ascended an almost precipitous cliff of
about 5(H) feet, assaulted ami carried the
top of Pieter's hill. This bill, to a cer
tain extent, turned the enemy's left, and
the Fourth brigade, under Colonel Nor
cott. and the Eleventh brigade, Colonel
Kitchener commanding, the whole under
command of General Warren, assailed
the enemy's position, which was mag
nificently carried by the South Lanca
shire regiment about sunset. We took
about GO prisoners and scattered the ene
my in all directions. There seems to be
still a considerable body of them left on
and under Hulwnnu mountain. Our
losses, I hope, are not large. They cer
tainly are much less than they would
have been were it not for the admirable
manner iu which the artillery was served,
especially the guns manned by the Royal
naval force und the Nutul naval volun
teers." yuceu Victoria bus sent the following
message to General Kuller:
"I have heard with the deepest concern
of the heavy losses Vustuiued by my
brave Irish soldiers. I desire to express
my sympathy nnd admiration of the
splendid fighting qualities which they
have exhibited throughout these trying
operations."
General Butler's account of the tre
mendous resistance he is encountering in
his efforts to reach Ladysmith has
brought public interest, with a sharp
turn, from complacent contemplation of
Lord Roberts' victory to a realization of
the serious conditions still existing in
Natal. Though General Boiler's lengthy
dispatch is construed ns a victory bravely
won, the commander of the forces in
Natal hus so often reported similur vic
tories without achieving his main ob
jective that the public has learned to
contain its jubilation until Ladysmith is
actually relieved, while the long list of
casualties invariably following any ap
parent gain by General Kuller is always
awaited with dread and anxiety which
temporarily rob his partial success of its
acclaim. However, it is the generally
accepted belief that General Ruller Is
determined to reach Generul White thiH
time, und, though the stages are disap
pointingly slow, the nutioit' confidently
awaits the news of the relief of those
8,000 besieged troops. Generul Kuller's
report shows there is urgent need of
Lord Roberts exerting every effort to
still further draw off the Roers from
Natal to the Free Stftte. That he will
do so, and quite likely is already doing
so, by marching upon Hloc lufoiitcln, is
regarded as almost certain by the mili
tary critics here.
With the additional GOO Boers repott
ed to lie prisoners at Kimberley, It seems
that the number of men captured by
Lord Roberts nearly reaches 5,000.
The afternoon papers continue to com
ment on the hero of Kandahar's great
achievement, laying special stress on the
gallantry of the Canadians, who, accord
ing to a Paardeberg special, were actual
ly fighting hund to hand in the Roer
trenches when General Cronje surrender
ed, though this scarcely agrees with Lord
Roberts' dispatch.
Nrwi of the Hollanders.
AMSTERDAM, Feb. 28. The news
papers generally express the opinion thut
Generul I'nuije's capitulation does not
mean the end of the wur. The Algemeeu
Hundelsblad says: "It is a long way be
tween Lord Koltcrt and Pretoria. If he
Is finally victorious, a more dangerous
guerrilla warfare will begin, and the
Boers will smite the British everywhere.
The Cape Dutch will form a permanent
danger to South Africa."
The Telegraf says: "The Boers, embit
tered, will continue tho wnr with greater
fury. Will Europe auy longer stifle the
voice of conscience?"
What Is ThoDKlit In Roma.
ROME. Feb. 28. The capitulation of
General Cronje hus produced a painful
impression In Rome. The newspapers are
unanimous lu expressing their admiration
for the Boer commander nnd his troops.
The Tribuna says, "The capitulation la
undoubtedly Important, but it does not
conclude the war." The Sanfulla says,
"General Cronje attained the object he
desired namely, to enuble a great part
of General Joubeit's army to reach
Bloemfontein.'
Opinion' of Herlla Press.
. BERLIN, Feb. 28. The German news
papers are disappointed at the surrender
of General Cronje. They admit that Lord
Roberts has shown real military ability
and dash and that) the Roers have lost in
Cronje their niostskillful leader.

Historic Old Moose Ilarned.
NEW YORK, Feb. 28. An old two
story frame house on Macomb's Dam
lane, which wus once part of the Jumel
estate, was yesterday destroyed by fire.
The loss was small. The principal inter
est in the fire is the fact that the building
was at various times during the Revo
lutionary period the headquarters of
George Washington. During the old dnys
j It was owned by Thomas Tone, and it re
mained in the possession of the Tone
family for many years.

NEW YORK, Feb. 28.-It became

ami intended to puss through the Long

day afternoon while en route from New
York to Long island City. All the in
formation that can be learned from the
postal authorities indicates that the mon

Sweet butter can't be made in a sour

stomach fouls the food put into it. When
the food is fouled the blood made from
it is fouled also. Foul blood means dis
ease. Cleanse the churn and you have
sweet butter. Cleanse the stomach and
you have pure blood. The far reaching
action of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is due to ita effect on the
stomach and organs of digestion and
