AVaahinKton. Fob. 10. Tho bill re-
initly Introduced by Senator Ilonna
i lenBlon ox-slaves is Going Indorsed
a rumbor of camps of Confederate
etcrans, somo of thorn In TexaB. It
bollovcd horo by thoso acquainted
Ui tho situation that tho old Con-
crates nro bolng Imiwsod upon. Sail
or Hanna Introduced tho bill by re-
uest, at tho Instance of a number of
vcallcd "promlnont nogroos." Tho
onfederatos who Indorse tho bill do
i for two reasons, viz.: That tho old
avos woro faithful while tholr mas-
rs woro at tho front, and for that
ason tho former masters aro-wlltlng
r tho government to compensate
cm If tho government is dlsposodto
so: foeond, that this enlargement
ll'O pension system will put addl-
)nal monoy In circulation In tho
uth.
(The schemo to pension ex-slaves Is
t now. It has como to tho front at
tervnW slnco tho war, and will doubt-
i& como to tho front again nfter tho
rsuu movement has vanlsned.
lero I no chanco to pass such a bill.
1 .t it f harpers havo from time to
bio taUon hold of Uio mnttor for tho
orprso of collecting monoy from ne
'oes who havo been led to belle va
t by a little work on tho pan. of tho
larpere" such a bill could bo passed.
Tho pension system Is already Ink-
from tho pr'oducors and consumers
tho country something like $115.-
.000 i.nnually. Congress never has
vftusly regarded passing such a. bill
that which Senator Hanna clferod
W.ust, and probably never will.

BOWEN IS MASTER.
His Boldness and Tact Have Astolsh
ed the Capital.
..Washington, Feb, 10. All tho ljn
ors of tho three-cornered illplonmilo
battlo between the allies, Vsnssusla
and President Roosevelt has been won
by Harbor t Howen, who represents the
South American republic In the nego
tiations. Mr. Howen occupies a com
nmndlug position todny In the ooutre
versy. and his able handling of U'e
points In dispute are the talk of the
capital. His methods havo nstonlsuoi
the representatives of Bnglnnd and
Germany and haro fairly ouUlone fje
proverbial American diplomacy by
I luntnoss nnd boldnoes. While con
ceding Its advantages, the foreign dip
lomats are confessedly no match for
the American in Ails particular field,
ns Is shown by the fact that Sir MI
chaol Herbert has gone far out of his
way to mako amends to Mr. IJowon
for tho Indirect nttempt lo carry the
matter over his head to President
Itoosovolt. There is every sign that
tho allies are norvously confused nt
the Uowen tactics and are beginning
ovon to distrust each other. The Unit
od States, It is apparent to every ono,
has won a distinct triumph, which Is
omphasized by President Koosove, 's
refusal of the request of tho alllos to
decido tho ono point on which the ne
gotiators woro unnblo to agree that
of preferential treatment for the block
ading powers. The flnal negotiations,
especially thoso roferrlng to profarrod
paymonts, may go to tho Haguo tribu
nal. The negotiations botween the al
llos and Minister Dowen havo been re
sumed in Intorost. It Is now plain to
tho roprosontativos of tho allios that
tho United Statos will not permit a
much longor blockade of Venezuela.
