nanny Reported to the Senate

and Placed on the Calendar.

 

A VERY RADICAL DOCUMENT.

It Is Sweeping In Its Provisions and Is
an Emphatic Affirmation of the
Monroe, Doctrine—Too Strong
For Gray, \Vho Dissented.

\l’nsnrsorox, Jan. 21.——Unusual inter.

est attached to the senate proceedings to

day owing to anticipated action on the
several important- qucstions, includinga
report from the committee on foreign rela-
tions on the Monroe doctrine and an effort
by Mr. Pugh to secure a vote, according
to notice given in his resolution reafiirm-
flag the historic Stanley Matthews resolu-
tion that government obligations should
be paid in the money current when they
were incurred———namely, silver as well as
gold. There was a good attendance on
the floor, and the galleries were crowded.
A report from tho postmaster general
on a senate resolution of inquiry gave the
details of the practice. long observed of de-
ducting small sums as forfeitures from

the wages of railway mail clerks for neg-'

lect of duty.
The Davis Resolution.

Mr. Davis (Hep, Minn.) of the com-
mittee on foreign relations arose as soon
as the routine proceedings were disposed
of and submitted afavorable report on the
resolutions framed by him enunciating the
Monroe doctrine. ' It was read from the
desk, receiving close attention. The reso-
lution, preamble and all, in full is as fol-
lows:

“Concurrent resolution relative to the
assertion and enforcement of the Monroe
doctrine.

“Resolved by the senate, the house of
representatives concurring, That as Pros-
idcnt Monroe in his message to congress
of Dec. 2, Anno Domini 1823, deemed it
proper to assert as a. principle, in which
the rights and interests of the United
States are invcfived, that the American con-
tinents, by the free and independent con-
dltlon which they have assumed and main.
tained, were thenceforth not to be consid-
cred as subjects for future colonization
by any European power:

“Whereas, President Monroe furiher de-
clared in that ‘lucssugo that the United
States would consider any attempt by the
allied powers of Europe to extend their
system to any portion of this hemisphere
as'dangerous to our peace and safety; that
with the existing colonies and depen-
dencies of any European power we have
not interfered and should not interfere,
but that with the governments who have
declared their independence and main-
tained it, whose independence we have on
great consideration and on just principles
acknowledged, we could not view any in-
terposition for the purpose of oppressing
them or controlling in any other manner
their destiny by any European power in
any other light than as the manifestation
of an unfriendly disposition toward the
United States, and further reiterated in
that message that it is impossible that al-
lied powers should extend their political
system to any portion of either continent
without endangering our peace and happi-
ness; and,

“Whereas, The doctrine and policy so
proclaimed by President Monroe have
since been repeatedly asserted by the Unit-
ed States by executive declaration and ac.
tion upon occasionsand exigencies similar
to the particular occasion and exigency
whichcaused them to be first announced,
and have. been ever since their promulg. -
tion and now are the rightful policy of
the United States;

“Therefore be it resolved that the Unit-
ed States of America rcufiirms and con—
firms the doctrines and prim-iplcs pron-lul-
gated by President Monroe in his message

of Dec. 17-2. 1823, and. declares that it will.

assert and maintain that doctrine and
those principles and will regard any in-
fringement thereof and particularly any
attempt by any European power to take or
acquire any new territory on the American
continents or any islands adjacent thereto
for any right of sovereignty or dominion
in the some, in any case or instance as to
which the United States shall deem such
attempt to be dangerous to its peace or
safety, by or through force, purchase, ces-
sion, occupation, pledge, colonization,
protectorate or by control. of the easement
in canal or any other means of transit
across the American isthmus, whether on
unfounded protension of right in cases of
alleged boundary disputes or under other
unfounded pretensions, as the manifesta-
tion of an unfriendly disposition toward
the United States and as an interposition
which it would be impossible in any form
for the United States to regard with in-
difference.”

At Mr. Davis’ request the resolution
wont to the senate calendar. ' .
' Mr. Gray (Dorm, Del.) stated that he
desired it understood that the favorable re-
port was not unanimous.

The Sowell Resolution.

Mr. Wolcott (Rep. Colo.) gave notice
that he would, on Wednesday, address the
senate on Mr. Sewell.’s resolution placing
limitations on the Monroe doctrine.

Mr. Frye (Rep, Me.) reported favorably
on bill regulating naphtha launches.

Mr. Warren (Rep, Wy.) presented a res-

o.

olution concerning the shrinkage in price.

of farm animals and directing an immlry.
He gave notice of a- spcech on thr- subject
next Thursday.

Mr. Sewcll (Ben, X. J. f) then addressed
the senate on his resoluiton reciting that
President Cleveland. had extended the

Monroe doctrine beyond its proper scope.

and enunciatlng the principle that the
doctrine was for the interest of the United
States and was not an obligation to aid
andprotect southern republics. The rcso-'
lution recites that the president’s course
was premature and that the Monroe doc-
trine does not commit the United States to
a protectorate of southern countries. Mr.
Sewell said the president's Venezuelan
message presented questions of most seri~

- ous import.

The senator, reading from the message,
said tho president clearly desired to pre-

sent the contingency of Awar. Throughout

the message and the letters of the secretary
of state the determination was clear to
make this construction of the doctrine ab-
solutely final and conclusive without ref-
erence to results. ‘

, In the House.

When the house met today, Mr. Grain
(Dem., Tex.) secured the“ passage of a bill
extending the Mine in which to complete
the work of improving Aransas pass, Texas.

On motion of Mr. Richardson. (Dem.,
Tenn.) 3. bill was pilSEOll'tO incorpOrato the

to the resolution calling on him for infor-
mation-as tOAwhat die hadé‘done about the
matter of the speeches delivered by Em-
bassador Bayard. He transmitted copies

of the two speeches in full and also copies.

of letters from Mr. Bayard explanatory of
them. '

N 0 action was taken by the president on
the speeches except to notify Mr. Bayard
of the action of the house. , ~

Mr. Hardy of Indiana offered a resolu-
tion looking to the recognition of the serv-'
ices of Major General Nelson A. Miles.
The resolution revives the grade of lieu-
tenant general in order to recognize, the
distinguished services of General Miles,
and the law reviving the grade is to expire
on the retirement of General Miles. Mr.
Hardy, in speaking of the proposition,

thought that the special recognition should .

be accorded General Miles in recognition
of the volunteer soldier.

O The Pacific Railroads.
WASHINGTON, J an. 2].—Thc house com-
mittee on Pacific railroads today decided

to begin hearings next Monday preparatory»

to framing a plan for the adjustment of
the debts of the Central and Union Pacific
to the government. Invitations will be
sent to the representatives of the Union
Pacific. and Central Pacific railroads and
the California people who oppose afund-
ing bill. The hearings will be held daily,
if possible, until all the parties in interest
have appeared. Most of the committee
hour was spent in discussing. the present
status of the roads. Some new members
wanted the hearings postponed so that.
they might study the question, but Chair.
man Powers said, “As the first mortgage
on the Union Pacific is in process of fore-
closure timo is the essence of this matter.”

A Flat Denial.
WAsnmeTon, Jan. 21..-A flat denial is

given at the war department today to the

report from Florida that the department
has requested the governor of the state to
put the Florida troops in readiness to take
the field at a moment’s notice. In the first
place, it is said the president has no con—
stitutional or lawful authority to make
such a request, and in the next place there

is no emergency that would justify the _

calling out of the 1,200 men who make up
the Florida militia.

ing of the senate subcommittee on foreign
relations.

Learning a Foreign Language.

Some interesting statistics might be
collected on the effect upon linguistic
power. and accent of the possession of a
musical car. It would seem that a per-
son with a good ear for music'w'ould be
more rapid in the acquirement of a for-
eign tongue, and having acquired . it
would possess a more perfect pronuncia-
tion of the sounds than would a person
not having the same ready musical gift.

Similarly such a. person would be
quick to attain the dialect of the coun-
try in which he might be living and to
adapt his speech to the brogue or pro-
vincialism with which he found his ears
surrounded.

The greater rapidity with which Ger-
mans, Poles and Russians learn the
English language is surely not to be ac-
counted for merely by stating. that their
own more nearly resembles our language
than does that of the French or Italian.
A Greek, for instance, learns English in
about half the time it takes- an Italian
to acquire French, and a Russian will
speak French, English and German in
the same period that a Frenchman will
acquire a mere smattering of the two

AHll LOVES THE Bums."

FRANCOIS COAPPEE AND ‘HIS FRIENDS
‘ IN THE JARDIN DU LUXEMBOURG.

It Is a. Touching Sight to Watch thereof.
Feed His Pets In a. Public Garden-~A
Man Who Is Loved by an and 1. “Dear

, Master? to the Students. '

Francois Coppee, the author of “For
the King,” has a great many friends in
Paris, but none of them is more devoted
than the little birds that live in the Jar-
din du Luxembourg. They know him as.
soon as they see him come in at one of
the wide gates, his shoulders drooping,
his head hanging forward, his face pale
from ill health. They know in just
which one of his pockets he carries the
big piece of bread which he is going to
divide into crumbs for their benefit, and

. ,they probably say in their own special

language: ‘

“Ah, here is Friend Coppee, bless
him I” .

They are not the only ones that know
what Coppee has in his pocket. All the
Latin quarter people who come and go
through that corner of the Luxembourg

garden which facesthe Odeon know that ’

the gentle author rarely misses a day in
his devotion to the birds. And when he
appears with a peculiar swollen appear-
ance about one of his pockets they draw
quietly off to a respectful distance to
watch. ‘-

As soon as the circle of spectators—
workmen in blue blouses, students in
corduroy and slouch hats, nursemaids
with barelegged children—as soon as
these elements, which might possibly
be disturbing, have taken themselves for
enough out of the way, the birds close
in around the poet until sometimes a
hundred of them will be fluttering about
his head or hopping about his feet.
Then he takes out his piece of bread,
and crumbling off one corner tosses a
morsel up in the air. Instantly there is
a. flutter of wingsw and two or three of
the birds dart upward, and the most for-
tunate one catches the crumb in its flight
and settles down again to his place in
the flock.

One crumb after another is thrown
out in this direction and that, and co-
casionally a few are scattered on the
ground, so that the less adventurous and
weaker spirits may have their share.
Finally a good fat crumb is pinched ofl’T,
but not thrown. It is held invitingly
between the thumb and finger, while
the poet looks at his birds as much as to
say:

“Come, come. You know your friend
Coppee. Give me a proof of your affec-
tion, as I am giving you a proof of
mine. ”

There is a great flutter then among
the birds, at great cooking of pretty
heads, much sharp glancing of bright
eyes. Finally one particularly brave
little creature makes a wide curve to-
ward tho imprisoned crumb, but his
courage deserts him on the way, and he
circles back to his place without the
prize. Coppee rubs the crumb a little,
so that a tiny morsel of it falls to the
ground, where it is quickly picked up.
It is as if he said to his small fleck: .

“See, my little friends, it is a good
crumb. Where is your confidence? Have
I ever betrayed you?”

As if ashamed of having hesitated so
long, a bird makes a dart toward the
outstretched hand, poises with flutter-
ing wings above it, picks daintily at the
crumb and then hears it away triumph-
antly in its bill. After that it all goes
merry as a marriage bell. Two or three
birds will be eating from his hand at
the same time. They light on his shoul-
der, on his~ arm, on his hat.

The spectators meanwhile are full of
breathless interest. A child whose loud
cry of delight startled the birds into
sudden flight is unceremoniously jerked
back by his nurse with an emphatic
“Tais-toi. ” The students talk in an un-
dertone about the dear master, as they
call Coppee.

Last Winter, when there was an un-
usual amount of snow in Paris, Coppee
wasgparticularly attentive to the wants
of his birds, which in their turn were
more than ever appreciative of his good
offices, for the snow made pretty poor
picking for them. And on cold days it
was no uncommon sight to see the stu-
dents rush up to the poet after he had
finished his dole and turn up his coat
collar or tighten his mufiier or button
his overcoat.

“Dear master,j’ they would say affec-
tionately, “you must be more carefuLof
yourself. You know you are not strong,
and it is cold, and we need you as much
as the birds do. ”

To the birds and the students he is al-
ways “the dear master. ” It was Coppee
who wrote and read the poem for the
unveiling of the bust of Henri Murger
in that same Jardin du Luxembourg.
Murger’s name is idolized by the whole
Latin quarter, and it is doubtful if the
student would have permitted any one-
-of whom they did not approve to take
part in the ceremonies at the unveiling
of his monument. . .

Coppee .is not married, although, in
French fashion, he has a friend to whom
he makes mysterious references in his
writingsas One who is dear to him and
in whose heart he knows he will leave
ineonsolable regret when he dies. How-
ever that may be, he will be sure of
plenty of sincere ,mOurners—the students
of the Latin quarter and the birds of the
Jardin du Luxembourg. —New York
Sun.

 

Windproof.

A farmer in the Kansas cyclone dis-'5
trict was building a stone wall. .He was
putting it there to stay, building it 5
feet across the base and 4 feet high. A
stranger came riding by, and seeing the
care the farmer wastataking said to him,
“You seem to be mighty careful about
that wall. ” “Yep,” replied the farmer,
“I’m er building her to stay. ” “ ’Tain’t
no use,” replied the stranger, “‘it’ll
