Corps Nicaragua Canal BUI Dis
cussed In the Senate.
Washington, Jan. 17. The Naval Per
sonnel bill was passed by the House
today, with a proposed Increase of the
marine corps to six .thousand men.
The provision to make the commandant
of the corps a major general was bit
terly opposed and was- stricken out,
leaving the head of the corps nbriga
dier general. The vote was 127 to 64,
which fairly represented the strength
of the bill in the House. -
Mr. Butler presented in the Senate
today a memorial from Confederate
veterans of Muskogee county, Georgia,
requesting the Senator to press his bill
granting pensions to Confederate sol
diers, as by so doing "it would show
to the world that we are an united peo-
. .m
pie." They desire this, they say, "not
as mendicants for pensions, but in re
