He made a brief state ment referring to the protests against confirmation as made by the Anti-trust League, but said that after giving care ful attention to this representation , the committee had decided to recommend confirmation. . No opposition was voiced, but action on the nomination was post poned by common consent. The Senate then, before taking up the Isthmian Canal treaty, proceeded to pass upon other nominations, of which there are an exceptionally large number before the Senate. Senator Lodge spoke in favor of the treaty, saying that all objectionable fea tures of - the last treaty had been re moved; that the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, standing so long in the way of a canal, had been removed; that the change in Article I was of material importance. He said the concessions were ample for the United States' interests. '. - An adjournment without furtheer con- TARIFF FOR THE PHILIPPINES Committee.

The Speaker Announces Committees Washington, Dec. 10. There was a very large attendance on the floor of the House of r Representatives today in anticipation of the announcement of the committees by the speaker. After the reading of the journal Mr. Richardson of Tennessee, the leader of the minority, offered a resolution to place upon the House pay-roll the four special employes usually allowed the minority.

Mr. Payne offered a concurrent resolution to provide for a holiday recess from Thurs day. December 19, to Monday, Janu ary 6, and it was adopted. Mr. Richardson called attention to the fact that the Committee on Insular Af fairs was not. under the resolution, to have jurisdiction over matters relating to taxation and revenue in the insular possessions. He intimated that - if the committee was not to consider those sub jects it would have little to do. Mr. Payne replied that there were many other subjects relating to the insu lar possessions for it to consider. , Mr. Grow, the venerable ex-speaker, discussed at some length the prospective legislation for the Philippine Islands. He contended that the Constitution con tained two grants of power under which Congress could govern the Philippines according to its discretion.. . v At 1:55 p. m. the House adjourned until Friday. The Bonine Case Washington, Dec. 10. The . Bonine case' is fast nearing its ending. The de fense rested at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Arguments to the jury will begin tomor row. Dr. Carr was on the stand again today.- He described to the jury the man ner in which-the shotts could have been tired and was given the pistol by the district attorney to further illustrate. The witness attempted to show that a thumb could have pulled the trigger during the straggle, and Mr. Gould in sisted that Dr. Carr take the pistol and pjace it in such ?i position as to show exactly how the chest wound was made. Dr.. Carr is a heavy man. with short ai'ing, and found much difficulty in hold ing Jthe weapon so that it would inflict the chest wound as in the case of Ayres. He" said that In his opinion the chest wound was the first inflicted and that Washington the Scene of Another Mvsterious Cri me Washington, Dec. 10. Mrs. Ada Gil bert Dennis, a fashionable dressmaker, who Tesides at 1117 K Street North West, was found in her room at an early hour today in an almost dying con dition. She had been brutally assaulted by some unknown person. The case promises to give the detec tives as much if not more trouble than did the Kenmore mystery. Her skull had been fractured, her jawbone bro ken and her left ear almost severed from her head. The seat of a piauo stool is believed to have been the weapon used by the woman's assailant. It was THE CABINET Carnegie's Gift to' Education and Legislation for the Philippines. .Washington, December 10. President" Roosevelt today informed the members of the cabinet of the gift which Andrew Carnegie has "offered to make for the benefit of higher education and scientific research. The'cabinet officers discussed the matter at some length, but it was decided to withhold from the public the details of the plans until the leaders Jn both Houses of Congress can be con sulted and o'heir views on the subject learned. . Secretary Root occup'ld a large part of the time of the meeting with a state ment regarding the Philippine tariff leg islation growing out of the insular de cision. The administration is in favor! of the Lodge bill, whichis of course practically an expression of the views of the administration. The efforts at Philippine legislation in the House are not viewed with favor by most members of the cabiner. Secrefflry Root is-anxious that legislation affecting the islands should be prompt, and his statement this morning was devoted to urging the necessity of the maintenance of the ex Ming tariff in .the archipelago and the continuance of the Diugley act provis ions in the United States.

The questions of the cross-examination were intended to prove that the woucd could not have been made while pistol was in Ayres' hand. Dr. Crr was a strong witness for 'the- deft having made a large number of S?ri nients fcased on the statement ' of Stos. Bonine, which (had convinced him of the possibility of the facts as she hid stated. Dr, Sterling Rufftn, the cext witness, testified that the chest wouod Inflicted on Ayres must have been from h thot fired when the pistol was from fle to eight inches diMant from the body. Dr. Bobee also gave testimony along the same line, showing the results of eipe riments designed to prove the close range at which the fatal shot mat: have been fired. evident that robbery was not f the mo tive of the assault as money and valua bles were -untouched.- During a conscious moment wJiile be ing conveyed to the hospital, Mrs. Den nis was asked who assaulted her. "Nev er mind," she replied, and relapsed into unconsciousness. A corps of detectives visited the house and -made a careful examination. Several photographs of the room were made to be used in the trial in case the detectives are success ful in apprehending Mrs. Dennis as sailant. The woman was alive at midnight, but her recovery is not ie gavded as orobablei twenty-four years judge of:, the United States Court for the Eastern District of V irginia, died: at his home in Abing don today.
