THE WASHINGTON LETTER.
The prist week' in congress 1ms
l)omi one of exceptional activity.
Although it has been characterized
by no exceptionally sensational fea
tures tlie legislation accomplished
bears evidence of continuous imnl
work in both chambers n nd is a
matter of satisfaction to ttis rppnbli
Ciin leader. The senate has passed
the ship subsidy bill, the bill for the
protection of the president, nnd the
war revenue rppeal bill Tlie house
of representatives devoted the week
to the consideration of the river and
harbor bill and pissed the same on
Friday evening, devoting itself to
the consideration of private bilk on
Saturday. Today the senate will
take up the anti-oleomargarine bill.
The program for the house lias not
yet been determined.
Although but six republican votes
were, cast, against the ship subsidy
bill in the senate It is believed that
it will develop considerable opposi
tion in the bouse. Senator Frye
confidently asserts that it will pass
but other leaders shake their beads
or refuse to commit, themselves and
some maintain that it would be pol
icy to bold the measiiro over for ac
tion at the short session. On Tues
day evening the republican mem
bers held their fifth conference to
consider the subject of Cuban recip
rocity and ratified the poliev of the
ways and means committee by a
Considerable majority. Representa
tive Dalzcll said yesterday "Wo are
working almost nluht and day on
the bill which we hope soon to pre
sent to the bouse and which we be
liove will receive practically unanl
nious support on the republican side
of the chamber." The Michigan
delegation has decided to resist the
passage of the bill but it is not be
lieved that it will go so fur ns to
Join farces with the democrats in an
attempt to precipitate general tariff
revision. A leader of the beet sugar
forces told me yesterday that there
would be some sensations "sprung
upon the leaders" when the subject
came up for consideration on the
floor of the house but declined to
say what they would be. It is
known, too, that Representative
Roberts is contemplating the offer
ing pf an amendment which would
admit Cuban hides to the United
States free of duty. Mr. Roberts
will be urged by the leaders not to
complicate the present Issue by the
introduction of this amendment, but
as he believes It to be of Vital inter
est to his constituents to secure a
reduction of the duty on hides, at
least to some ejetent, he has not de
termined what bis course will be.
Senator Burrows of Michigan told
me Saturday that bis committee had
already had one meeting to consider
the resolution having for its pur
pose the amendment of the consti
tution so as to permit the election
of Bei ators by popular vote. The
senator said that the matter would
be taken- up again tomorrow and
would be considered ou every Tues
day until the committee was pre
pared to report. He hoped to be
able to report at this session. The
senator expressed himself as believ
ing it would bo discourteous to his
colleagues to utter any opinion at
this time beyoud the statement that
he bad voted favorably on a similar
proposition wheu a member of the
house.
Senator Proctor predicts that the
discussion On the oleomargarine bill
will be brief. "I think the major
ity of the senators thoroughly un
derstand the subject and that, it will
require but a short time for them to
express their views and admit the
bill to a vote," said the senator
wh in I saw him Saturday. Senator
Penrose is ready with the Chinese
exclusion bill which will follow the
Riiti oleoma! purine bill.
The senate made but one import
ant change in the bill repealing the
war revenue tines und that will
douhtl-sp meet Wish general approv
al. It consists in retaining the tax
on "bucket shops." The democrat
ic senators presented some ingen
ious til laments uiMiii;-t the bill for
t!i protect ion i.f the prc-ii.lotit but a
number of them vot. ,1 for it on its
final p:ts.-:i(.re. As to the geinTiil

i.f the somite, was unanimous and

stituents. The river and harbor
bill passed the bouse without divi
sion. The total appropriation cur
ried by tlia bill amounts to t'lO.G.sS.
207. -
Early In the week the house Com
mittee on rules brought In a favor
able report on the Crnin packer rsoJ
lotion which authorizes the speak
er to appoint A select committee to
Investigate the question of congres
sioi.iil representation in its relation
to suffrage. This rep rt paused
consternation among tlie democrats
who admit that many adult males
in the southern states are prevented
from voting and who appreciate
that, were congressional representa
tion based upon the number of vot
ers, the delegations fpom these
states would be materially reduced.
They have attempted to start tho
cry of "foreo bill," although noth
ing is further from tho Intention
of Mr. Crumpacker and his associ
ates In the movement. While all of
the republicans recognize the Jus
Moo of the movement there are
some who, rather than do Anything
which might precipitate sectional
animosity,- would permit existing
conditions to remain undisturbed
and although there is little doubt
that the speaker will appoint the
committee, there is some doubt as
to the character of tho committee's
re pel t.
General Miles has produced a sen
siition in Washington by appearing
before tho somite committee on mil
itary affairs and testifying In em.
phatic and caustic terms against the
army reorganization bill of which
Secretary Root is tho virtual
author. The general said if the
bill became a law bo would resign
and that the measure was designed
to permit, the extension of a system
of favoritism with which he charged
the administration. When tlie re
ports of the general's tostlmony
were first made public, by the press
the president was seriously incensed
and there woro rumors abroad of
another severe reprimand, immedi
ate retirement of the general, etc,
Such action by the president Is not
likely, however, as testimony be
fore a congressional committee Is
usually regarded as privileged and
several members of the committee
tell me that to permit the general
to be censured for bis remarks
would establish a precedent which
would for all time operate against
conpress In its efforts to secure ac
curate information regarding t'ie in
ternal workings of the executive de
partments. $67 Round Trip to Los Angeles.

OBITUAHT
I'KTRR A. L. QUICK.
Probably no man In this section
was more generally known than bo
who passed peacefully away at his
hitne in Delaware township Wed
nesday morning. All bis long life
be had been a prominent figure in
the business affairs of this com
mnnity, respected and adiniied for
his persistent advocacy of what, be
considered his rights and as the
consummation of which ho reaped a
large financial reward. Ills ances
tor, Peter Quick, was nmong the
very first Bottlers in this section, lo
cating in Westfall probably between
1730-35 and was the progenitor of a
numerous family whoso name is
widoly known. His son, John B.,
married Diana Rosenkrantz and re
sided at what lma long boeh called
the Unit-Way House, where he oar
rled on an extensive business lnm.
berlng and farming. In 1824 he
purchased a largo tract ot coal land
in Luzerne county, Pa., and burned
the first anthracite coal used in Now
York at the Orange County Hotel
on Cortlandt street. Concerning
this property a litigation arose
which occupied several years and in
which his son w:s finally successful
and derlvod a handsome fortune.
Peter A. L. Quick was a son of John
B. and was born in tlie Half Way
Uouso Feb. 1, 1819. Subsequently
the family removed to a farm in
Schocopoo and there he remained
for several years. April 19, 1858,
he married Catharine A. Angle of
Delaware township. In 1874 they
came to Milford and after residing
here five and in Port. Jervis three
years removed to Dolawaro town
ship, where he became owner of a
large farm, and took up his resi
dence In "Manor Hall." Mr. Quick
was a man of indomitable persover
ance, positive convictions and ten
acity of purpose. During tha long
litigation with the company over
the coal land he never faltered in
his purpose and in fact was never
entirely happy unless he had a law
suit on his mind. He was of a gen
ial disposition and never sought to
offend. In his earlier life he fol
lowed the business of lumbering
and was a skillful waterman and
well known all aloug tho river. His
was a familiar form with a per
sonality all its own and few in this
section will fail to utter a word of
sorrow over his departure. The
measure of his days was full but he
was robust almost to the end. Some
weeks ago he went to New
York for treatment but
age and not disease was busy with a
frame which had always been active
and nntiring and it was conqueror.
Surviving are his widow and five
ohildren, Emma, wife of Geo. R.
Snelling, Esq., of Topeka, Kan.,
Margaret A., wife ot John WNyce,
and Flora A., wife of Win. R. Con
nor of Caldwell, Kan., Iiena of New I
York and Lafayette W, of Dela
ware. The funeral services will be held
at the Reformed church in Ding-
mans at 2 p. m. today and inter.
ment in Delaware cemetery.

She was born in Weisbaden, Ger
many, about soventy-three years
ago and when coming to this coun
try in 1852 met her future husband
on shipboard. Arriving in . New
York they were marriod and after
a brief residence there came

years ago pure-based a farm in Dela
ware township which was their
homo nntil 1SU8 when, her husband
dying, she went to live with her

Satisfaction guaranteed by all drng-
g'.SS,
Constables Reports.
The perfunctory manner in which
constables perform their duties In
many Instances in making returns to
court paiticuiary respecting viola
tions of the liquor law, has met ith
condemnation by severul judges mi l
the Philadelphia Pros says that
Judge Scott of Northampton county
has evidently lot bis patience with
constables who make false reports to
the court about violations of law.
Hi' has notified these officials that be
will deal with them as the law directs
in the event that they are again de
tected in the perjury which so many
of them commit in making false re
turns. Tlie particular point Is iu
reference to reports of violations of
the liquor laws. Almost uniformly
they declare to the courts that they
know of no violations, when there
are plenty of citizens having abund
ant information on the subject with
out taking the trouble to seek and
who know that such reports are
false. Under such circumstances
constables' returns have become a
farce and a subject of Joke reflecting
upon the court which accepts them
in a perfunctory way. In all the
coal region counties this has become
particularly pronounced, nnd the fact
that in Luzerne county alone some
thing like a hundred applications for
renewals were refused because re
monstrances by private citizens
showed the laws bad be n violated is
a fair exposure of the operations of
the constables whose business it is to
report these violations from time to
time. It Is within the power of the
courts to compel these petty officials
to perform their duty properly and
It needs to be done if the courts are
to protect their own Integrity. If
Judge Scott carries out his notice
there will be no further trouble In
Northampton county.
Bath Cure May Come.
A meeting of citizens was held
Monday evening to bear the report
of the committee appointed to solicit
funds with which to purchase a site
for the proposed bath cure which Dr.
C W. Roberts of Scrtuiton contem
plates locating here. It was found
that sufficient was subscribed to buy
the ground preferred by him and it
was directed that he be so informed.
Nothing now remains but bis final
conclusion to accept Milford us the
place in which to locate. It is the
earnest hope of the citizens that his
decision will be favornble. His
project is looked on with much favor
and will be a great acquisition. The
doctor himself created an excellent
impression and he will be most cor
dially welcomed as a resident here.
