AS HEAD OF THE CANAL COMMITTEE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.— To-day's ses
sion of the Senate was devoted exclu
sively to the reading of the President's
message In support of reciprocity with
Cuba and to the routine incident to the
receipt of the message. The attendance
of Senators was exceptionally large and
many appeared with great rolls of freshly
prepared bills.
The message received the careful att
tentlon of the Senators, and when its
reading had been finished Cullom of Illi
nois was recognized to move the refer
ence to the Committee on Foreign Rela
tions of the message and the Cuban
treaty,, the text of which had been trans
mitted with the message. This motion
prevailed, and it had no sooner been dis
posed of than, upon motion of Allison,
the Senate adjourned.
Tho Foreign Relations Committee of the
Senate will hold Its first meeting to-mor
row to take up the Cuban treaty and to
define the policy of the majority in rela
tion to the new republic of Panama.
Chairman Cullom says the resolutions in
troduced by Ilitt of Illinois, and adopted
by the House yesterday, calling upon
the President for documents bearing on
the revolt in Panama, shows that Con
gress desires full Information concerning

The foregoing consideration* caused the ne
gotiation of the treaty with Cuba and Its rat
ification by ths Senate. They now, with equal
force, support the legislation by the Congress,
\V« gave her liberty. We are knit to her by
the memories of the blood and the courage of
our soldiers who fought for her In war; by the
memories of the wisdom and Integrity of our
administrators who . saved her in peace - and
who started her so well, on the difficult path
of self-government. We must help her onward
and upward; and, in helping her, wo shall help
ourselves. ' • ' "
Cuba has made great progress since her in
dependence -vu.3 established. 8he haa ad
vanced steadily in every way. 8he already
stands high among ber elster republics of the
new world. ShJ is loyally observing her obli
gations to us, and she is entitled to like treat-'
rnent by us.
The treaty eubmltted to you for approval
secures to the United States economic advan
tages as great as those given to Cuba. Nat an
American interest is sacrificed by th« treaty.
A large Cuban market Is secured to our pro
ducers. It is a market which lies at our doors.
,which Is already large, which Is capable of '
great expansion and which is especially impor
tant to the development of our export trade.*
It. would be indeed short-sighted for us to re
fuse to take advantage of such opportunity
and to force Cuba into making arrangement*
with oth«r countries to our disadvantage. .
This reciprocity treaty stands by Itself. It
Is demanded en consideration of broad national
policy, as well as by our economic Interest; It
will do harm to. no industry; It will benefit
many Industries; It is In. the Interest of our
people as a whole, both because of Its impor
tance from the broad standpoint of Interna
tional policy and. because economically it inti
mately concerns us to develop and secure tha
rich Cuban market for our farmers, artisans,
merchants and manufacturers. Finally, It la'
desirable as a Guaranty of the good faith of
our nation toward our - young sister republic,
whose welfare must ever be closely bound with
ours.
ISLAND NATION'S PROGRESS.
Situated as Cuba is, it would not' bo pos
sible for this country to permit the strategics
abuse of the plan by any military power. It
is for this reason that certain limitations have
been imposed upon her financial policy and
that naval stations have been conceded by
her to the United States. Tho negotiations
as to the detal's of those naval stations- are
on the eve of completion. They are so situ
ated as to prevent any Idea that there is the
Intention ever to use them aealnst Cuba, or
otherwise than for the protection of Cuba
from the assaults of foreign foes and for the
better safeguarding of American Interests in
the waters south of us. These Interests have
been largely increased by the consequences of
the war with Spain and will be ctlll further
increased by the building of the Isthmian,
canal. They are both military «.nd economic.
The granting to us by Cuba of the naval
stations above alluded to is of the utmost
importance from a military standpoint and is
proof of the good faith with which Cuba is
treating us.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.— The
joint committee of the Senate
and House appointed to notify
the President that Congress
was organized and ready to
receive any message he might have to
communicate to it, called at the White
House at 10:30 o'clock this morning to
perform its duty. After greeting the
members of the committee cordially tne
President informed them that he would
communicate with Congress very soon in
writing. Soon afterward the following
message was transmitted to both houses:
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
I have convened the Congress, that it may con-
Elder the legislation necessary' to put into
operation the commercial treaty with Cuba,
which was ratified by the Senate at its last
Beselon and subsequently by the Cuban Gov
ernment. I deem such legislation demanded
not only by our interest, but by cur honor.
¦\Ve cannot with propriety abandon the course
upon which we have eo wisely embarked.
When the acceptance of the Platt amend
ment was required from Cuba by the action
Of the Congress of the United States this
Government thereby definitely committed Itself
to the policy of treattnc Cuba as occupying a
unique position as regards this country. It
was Drovidcd that when the island became a
free and independent republic she should stand
In such close relations with the United States
as in certain respects to come within our sys
tem of International policy; and it necessarily
followed that she must also, to a certain de
gree, become included within the lines of our
economic policy.
All of these nominations are original
appointments. In addition many reoess
appointments were sent to the Senate.
These Include Foreign Ministers, Consuls,
judicial, army and navy promotions, and,
In fact, officials in every department of

GRIST OF APPOINTMENTS.
President Submits Nominations to
the Upper House.
The President to-night had a conference
with 'a number of leaders in both houses
of Congress. Those who called on him at
the White House were Secretary Moody;
Speaker Cannon, Senators Allison, Aid
rich, Platt of Connecticut, Spooner, Han
na. Hale, Lodge and Wetmore, and Rep
resentatives Payne, Dalzell, Tawney and
Hemenv/ay.
The old controversy between the House
and Senate over the right of the former
to initiate all revenue legislation was the
"principal topic • of conversation. The
members of the House claimed that the
present Cuban treaty provided that dur
ing the life of the convention the duty
on sugars should not be reduced "either
by treaty or convention. To concede the
position to the Senate, they asserted,
would be a surrender of their constitu
tional powers.
It was said that unless the contention
of the House is admitted the same dif
ficulty -will be presented as at the last
session, with the probability of the meas
ure being defeated. No conclusion waa
reached by the conference.
I transmit herewith the treaty as amended
by the Senate and ratified by the Cuban Gov
ernment. THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
White House. Nov. 10. 1003.
which, by the terms of the. treaty, ia necessary
to render It imperative, aa failure to enact
such legislation would become perilously near
a repudiation of the pledged faith of the na
ticn.

appointments made by the President to
day was that of Dr. W. D. Crum to be
Collector of Customs at Charleston, S. C.
Crum's nomination was before the Sen

of South Carolina Senators and Charles

the appointee.
At the regular session the . nomination
was reported from the Senate Committee
on Commerce by the votes of the Republi

Prevails Here.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 10.— The Secre
tary Of Agriculture to-day announced
that the last shipment of cattle from
country to Argentina had been ad
mitted into that country without deten

Government is satisfied that the efforts
of this Government to suppress the foot

been thoroughly successful and that .aere
is no danger of importing that disease
through . shipments of cattle through this
country.
The Department of Agriculture places
no credence In the allegation that th.e
cattle of the previous shipment, slaugh

House Does Little Beyond Receiving
President's Message.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10—The House
was in session less than half an hour to
day, an adjournment being taken out of
respect to the memory of two deceased
members. The President's message was
read and referred to the Committed on
Ways and Means, the membership of
which is yet to be announced. The mes
sage also was ordered printed. The
Speaker announced the Committee on
Rules and Mileage. Aside from making
provision for the payment of mileage of
members no further business ¦was trans
acted.
The President's message was received
with applause from the Republican side.
Following Its reading the Speaker an
nounced the following committees:
On rules— The Speaker, Dalze'.l of Penn
sylvania, Grosvenor of Ohio. Williams of
Mississippi, De Armond or Missouri.
Mileage— Reeder of Kansas, Jackson of
Maryland, Flack of New York, Repub
licans, and Louis of Georgia and Butler of
Missouri, Democrats.
Resolutions of respect to the memory of
Foerderer of Pennsylvania and Boreing
of Kentucky were adopted and as another
mark of respect the House adjourned.
Speaker Cannon has reappolnted Ascher
C. Hinds of Maine as clerk to the Speak
er's table. He has selected L. W. Busby,
correspondent of the Chicago Inter Ocean,
as private secretary to tho Speaker.
In- his letter to this department relative to
the slove contract the Secretary of War sub
mitted the single question, whether In a cas«
where a contract had been performed on both
sides and it subsequently appeared prima facia
that a member of Congress was interested In
such contract, money paid by the Government
In consideration therefor could b« recovered.
The Question submitted for my opinion in
volved the Just interpretation of the words in
section 3739. Revised Statutes, which reads as
follows: 'And whenever any sum of money
is advanced on the part of the United State.".
In consideration of such contract or agreement.
it shall be forthwith caid and in case of re
fusal or delay to repay the same when de
manded by tho proper officer of the department
under whose authority such contract or agree
ment shall have been made or entered Into,
every person so refusing or delaying tOK*th*r
with his sureties, shall be forthwith prose
cuted at law fcr the recovery of any such sura
of money so advanced."
In my reply I advised the Secretary of ar
that no part of the consideration could be re
covered. Th!s was all the Secretary of TVar
ask»d me to decide. Th« question whether llr.
Littauer was interested In the contracts under
consideration was not submitted for decision
and I did not pans upon It. directly or indi
rectly. Nor was it necessary for me to deter
mine that fact, as in any view of the case, in
my opinion, the money paid by the Government
could not have been recovered.
No further action could have been taken by
this department in the premises unless the data
transmitted disclosed a case for criminal prose
cution under section .TTK> of the Revised Stat
utes In examinirR the record we were met at
the threshold with the fact that the transac
tions under consideration were closed more than
four years ago. which fact would operate as a
bar to any prosecution, even if the statute had
been violated.
I must therefore. In harmony with the -uni
form practice or this office, decline to reopen
the case as you request.
I may ndd In conclusion that I »m tinaoia tr>
see how Mr. Littauer can f«el aggrieved by my
action as I have already said as plainly am I
know how. and I now repeat that I have not
passed upon or even considered, directly or In
directly, the question whether he was inter
ested In the sense contemplated by the statute.
In Lyons' contract with the Government. In
fact if I bad done «o. I would, as alreaflr
pointed out, have gone beyond my duty In the
premlBes. - _ :
In the course of his reply, declining to
reopen, th© case, the Attorney General
says:
It is upon Mr. Littauer' a entire Innocence
of even a technical breach of law that w«
take our stand reirardlcaa of ctvll or criminal
remedies or technical defenses. He has not
invoked and dees rot Invoke tha statute o* lim
itations and would certainly waive it It he
had tho rrlvllegr. I sincerely hope that you
will be able to »ee your way to reopen the case
that Mr. Littauer and I may be heard on the
subject. • ,
