Trie Fifty seventh Congress, nfter expending $1,584,108, 514 has ex pi re J. The Senate of the 58th Congress, persu tint to the call of the Presi- lent, has convened in special session, but up to this time no business session of the new Senate has beeen held, a- tude from the one on the 5th, when only the organization was perfected. There was the most sincere regret expressed on both sides of the chamber at the retirement of Senator Vest who has served with brilliancr for so manj years. Proportionate pleasure was, however, felt by the Demo crats at the return of Arthur Pue Gorman, of Maryland. Soon after the reorganiza tion of the Senate the demo crats held a caucus and elec ted Senator Gorman chair man, thus restoring him to his old place as leader of the partj in the Senate. No poli cy has yet been adopted with regard to the pending trea ties, that remaining for the determination of the demo cratic steering committee. The republican steering com in it tee has held a meetiug at which it was determined to press the Panama canal trea ty first. This course is adop ted with the hope of tiring out Senator Morgan who per 8ist8 in his opposition to the treaty as negotiated. Sena tor .Gorman has been credit ed with opposition to both treaties by certain newspa pers, but when seen bv your correspondent Mr. Gorman said: "There is no ground f o r the statments that have been published with regard to my attitude toward the treaties. 1 have never seen the Colom bian tieaty and certainly would not form an opinion regarding it until I had stud ied its provisions. If Senator Morgan's claims are correct of course I would oppose it, hut I must study it for my self before I can pass judg ment. When I was Senator before, I did favor the Nica- rnugan route and . I presume on that fact is based the as sumption that I will oppose the present arrangement. I have given no study to the Cuban treaty and will do so before I express an opinion in regard to its provisions al though lam (rilling to ad mit that from a superficial view I am inclined to favor it." Senator Vest, when seen by your correspondent after ad journmeut said: ''It is impossible to predict the future with accuracy but this much may besaid. If the present prosperity continues there will be no possibility of democratic success, in the next presidential election. The republicans will attrib ute the prosperity to their 'stand pat' policy with regard to the Dingley tariff and the people will take them at their word. If, on theother hand, hard times should come be fore the fall of 1904 the peo pie will say they are due to the trusts or to the tariff and will demaod a change. There has been no legislation at the past session of Congress which enraged the trusts, no legislation which will prove seriouslv harmful to their ends and ambitions, ft has been largely a play to t h e galleries. However, with such legislation on the statutes, the trusts would infinitely prefer that their administra tion should be intrusted to the republicans rather tnan to the democrats". It is generally anticipated that the leadership of Mr. Gorman will prove more ag gressive and ptogreesivethan that of Senator Jones who has just retired. Mr. Jones' positionn has, in the main, been one of passive tesis tance, and no brilliant poli cies h'lve been conceived or executed under his guidunce. Senator Gorman is counting on considerable assistance from Senator Stone, of Mis souri, who also favors a vig orous policy. While Senator Carmack was elected secreta ry of the cnucus, it is expect ed that Mr. Stone will be the real coadjutor of theSenator from Maryland when active operations in the Senate are begun. There is geauineanxiety on both sides of the Senate with regard to Senator Morgan's opposition to the Panama canal treaty. It is feared that the old gentleman he is 79 j'ears old will permit his mental vigor to overstrain his physical strength in his ef forts to defeat the purpose of the Senate. Night sessions will not be held immediately, it being the present purpose of the republicans to tire out the veneiable Alebamian with a continued series of five hour session, at which, unless his colleagues come to his rescue, he will be compell ed to speak continuously. If the democrats determine to help Mr. Morgan both trea ties can be defeated as it will be impossible for the republi cans to maintain a quorum for a protracted session. An instance of the careless methods of legislation pursu ed by Congress is furnished by two discoveries just made in the immigration bill. Kn tirely unwittingly this I a w has been mode to apply to all of the insular possessions of the United States proper. It will thus interfere with the War department, the Philip pine Commission, ete. Anoth er error, which may not have been made so unwittinglr, is the failure to provide any penalty for the violation a gainst the infraction of the provision prohibiting the sale of liquor in the national cap itol. The law went into effect on the 3rd of March but no order has been issued to the capitol restauranteurtostop the sale of liquor. Several provisions in the appropriation bills of the last session augur material prosperity for the city of Washington during the next few years. Nearly $20,000, 000 is to be expended here for public buildings alon? The new union dpot alone will cost $5,000,000, the mu nicipal building will cost $1, 500,090, and a new bnilding for the use of the member of the House will cost Upwards of $3,000,000, and a new building for the Department of Agriculture is to cost $1.- 500.000. A Hall of Records to cost $2,000,000, a Nation museum to cost $3,500,000, and a number af minor build ings complete the list. While the appropriation for the De partment of Agriculture ison ly $1,500,000, Secretary Wil son expects to secure addi tional appropriations from the next Congress amount ing to at least two millions more. Miss Roosevelt and Miss Root, who went to New Or leans for the carnival and vis ited other southern cities, have returned to Washing ton enthusiastic over south ern hospitality. They also speak with the highest praise of the courtesy of the news papers of the south which treated them with the utmost consideration. "Some time ago my daugh ter caught a severe cold. She complained of pains in her chest and had a bad cough I gave her Chamberlain's Cough Remedy according to directions and in two days she was well and able to go to school. I have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and haye never known it tn fail' fuivs James Prendergast, merch ant, Anna to Bay. Jamaica, West India Island.
