WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—The house
finally passed the sundry civil appro
priation bill today, and entered upon
consideration of the general deficiency—
"the last of the general appropriation
bills.
The proceedings were enlivened by a
humorous speech made by Mr. Allen
<.s!iss .y "the wit of the house," In favor
of an amendment offered by him to ap
propriate J20.000 for a fish hatchery at
Tupelo, Miss. Mr. Allen goes out of
congress Mar. h 4, after a service of
n years. He declared that "thou
sands and millions of unborn fish were
clamoring to this congress for the op
portunitj of being born in Tupelo." (Mr.
Allen's home.)
The amendment was unanimously
adopted.
The question of ?-earranging the hall
of representatives for the aceommoda
•■!' members in accordance with a
plan agitated some years ago, to re
ts and substitute benches
a imethlng after the manner in which
■ use 01" commons is arranged, came
up on a motion made by Mr. Crumpacker
(Ind.) to appropriate $116,000 for "refur
nishing and rearranging the hall of the
house of representatives, including the
removal of the individual desks of mem
h> is, and the reduction of the size and
tm reseating of the hall in a manner
that will iir> most convenient for the ses
sions of the house.
The amendment also provides for the
refurnishing of the sneaker's room. The
proposition was debated at considerable
length, and then defeated, yeas 45 nays
3t:i. The sundry civil bill was then pass
ed.
The house next took up the general
deficiency appropriation bill.
LENTZ ATTACKS HANXA.
to a pro forma amendment,
Mr. Lentz (O.) had read a paragraph
from a Columbus, 0., newspaper! re
porting the death of Charies Lyland,
territorial judge of New Mexico, who
was at one time a member of the Ohio
legislature, and who, the newspaper
said, voted for Mr. Hanna for United
States senator. "With this paragraph as
a text. Mr. Ivntz attacked corruption In
high and low places, charging fhnt a
Judicial place had been given Mr. Ly.
land in return for his vote for United
States senator. Mr. Steel (Tnd.l made
the point of order that Mr. Lentz was
not speaking to the subject under con
sideration, but was "jumping on a dead
man.''
"I am not jumping on a dead roan,"
replied Mr. Lentz, "but upon a man who
Is so alive that he will ride down Penn
sylvania avenue with the president one
■week from Monday."
"1 don't know Mr. LylomV interposed
Mr. Cannon (111.) emphatically, 'but I
do know the gentleman from Ohio. Brave
men fight the living; ghouls ravish the
tombs of the dead. That is all I have
i<> Bay." (Republican applause.)
Ijater on Mr. Grosvenor attempted to
secure an opportunity to reply to Mr.
Lentz. bat Mr. Lentz objected unless
twenty minutes were allowed on a side.
"It is not possible that my colleague
will insist upon his objection," answered
Mr. Groavenor. "He made an attack
upon a dead man, and I desire five min
ute? to reply."
"I did not make an attack upon a dead
man," replied Mr. Lentz. "I made an
expose of a live man. I have the proof
here if you desire to open the subject."
Angered by Mr. Lentz 1 refusal to allow
him to he heard, Mr. Grosvenor, with
flushed face and uplifted arm, declared
that the gentleman from Ohio (Mr.
Lentz) had been guilty of a malicious
falsehood.
"And he knows It," added Mr. Gros
venor.
A few minutes afterward Mr. I.cr.tz
proposed that Mr. Grosvenor be given
fifteen minutes, and he (Lentz) ten min
utes.
"Oh. T object," called out Mr. Cannon.
"If gentlemen desire to wash their dirty
linen, they should hire a hall" (Laugh
ter.)
LENTZ OX DESERTION.
A vei-v sensations] episode occurred
When the paragraph providing that not
$50 should l c paid for the apprehen-
Blon of ;i deserter from the army was
reached. This paragraph was "seized
by Mr. Lentz for a base from which to
attack what he said was going on in the
Philippines, and which so disgusted our
soldiers there they deserted. He de
flared that reports wore coming back
from the Philippines that our soldiers
•were killing prisoners, and said he knew
of a letter received by the father of a
soldier in the Philippines, telling of how
n native had been buried alive by his
captors and then beheaded.
"If thai was the sort of civilization th.it
*t.s being carried into the Philippines,"'
Mr. Lentz declared that it would take
$60,000 to prevent our soldiers from de
serting. Again and again he shouted
that they were justified in deserting.
Mr. Lenta' remarks aroused the house to
fever pitch. Mr. Graham (Rep.. Pa)
challenged Mr. Lentz to produce the let
ter he had referred to. He said he
thought it existed only in the imagina
tion of the gentleman from Ohio.
Mr. Lentz declared that the letter could
hot be produced without getting the boy
Into trouble. «
Mr. Cannon, In impressive tones, de
clared that a gentleman who would ris«
In his place in the American congress
and advise men who had enlisted under
the American flag to desert might be
safe here, but if they should say the
Bame thing in the Philippines they would
l>e tried by drumhead court-martial and
shot. This statement brought a round of
applause from the Republican side.
But Mr. Lentz returned to the assault.
He read a newspaper account of a letter
alleged to have been received by the
father of a soldier in the Philippines, say
ing that soldiers were ordered to shoot
every man and beast they found. Kr.
Lentz declared that he could not be
"browbeaten." If such orders had been
Issued, he said, this congress, collectively,
ehould be ashamed to face the world!
He charged that our soldiers were guilty
of murder and said the time had come
when the country was entitled to know
the facts and not to rely upon a censored
press.
Mr. Cannon said tlie gentleman was
lashing himself into a passion, while th*

Mrs. Smith declared that her husband,
who had been drinking to excess, had
procured the liquor at Pellegrine's place,
despite her request to the proprietor that

clares that he never sold liquor to the
I woman's husband, and when he told her
: so tonight she threatened him with a hat
pin. He put her out and she came back
with a brick and a few other missiles and
hurled them around generally, smashing
his plate glass door. Mrs. Smith was ar
rested and locked up at the Harrison
street police station.

TOPEKA, Kan., Feb. 20.—Mrs. Nation
received a letter in jail here today from
her husband, David Nation, of Medicine -
Lodge in which he complains of the;
harsh 'things that newspapers have said
of him regarding his relations with.the■
crusaders. One paper criticized him for
not attending her trial, and Mr. Nation |
takes occasion to ask his wife why sh«
does not keep him informed of what she]
is doing. He wants to know when she
is coming home, and. tells her that her
fellow citizens of Medicine Lodge have \
prepared "an elaborate reception" for
her. He does not appear to know thas'
his wife Is in Jail. ';.-.:.
