A Washingon special says: The house Friday made available the sum I of $250,000 to be used to meet the j emergency caused by the ravages of : the cotton boll weevil and other in sects and diseases affecting cotton. The measure was adopted without di vision, meeting general support. The sum is to be diverted from the half million dollars appropriated last year to eradicate the foot diseases among cattle. Mr. Burleson, of Texas*, speaking for the bill, explained that the mea & ure simply diverted money-^ierbtofore appropriated for another purpose, and did not make a new appropriation. He urged the importance of the passage of the bill to the cotton growing thU sec tions, giving the history of boll weevil, and what It has done. * The bill was passed witnout divis ion. It provides that the sum niade available may be expended by the (sec retary of agriculture in such manner as he shall deem best, in co-operation with state experiment stations and practical cotton growers*, if the secre tary of agriculture shall deem it ad visable to meet the emergency caused by the ravages of the cotton boll si ee vil and other insects affecting cotton. The house then went into committee of the whole to consider pension bills. The committee arose at 2:25 p. m., having acted favorably upon 115 bills, 29 of which were senate bills. The house passed the 115 bills in twenty minutes. until At 2:45 Monday. p. m. the house adjourajpd 1 DEITRICH IS ACQUITTED. Nebraska Senator Exonerated in Omaha Court at Suggestion of the Presiding Judge. At Omaha, Nebr., Friday, United States Senator Dietrich, who appeared in court to answer the charge of agreeing to receive, while a member of the United States senate, consider ation from one Fisher, for aiding to procure the appointment of postmas ter, was released from custody, the jury being instructed to bring in a ver- j diet of not guilty. The decision of Judge Vandeventer sustained a demurrer interposed by counsel for Senator Dietrich. The demurrer was made to the introduc tion of evidence on the ground that Dietrich was not actually a member ! of the senate when the alleged brib- ; ery took place. The effect of the de cision is that a man is not actually j a member of congress from the time of his election until he shall have ta ken the oath at the bar of the house to which he is elected, and that he is not amenable to law as a member of congress and officer of the United States. Judge Vandeventer said that the court was unable to find a single’in stance, ner had counsel cited any in stance, where a member of congress, after his election and pvior to his qualification, has enjoyed greater privileges than any other person by means of their election, although they often enjoyed much greater influence. Continuing he said: I • Under the law,, therefore, them- is j no crime, except where congress has so declared. The court does- not make the law and say what it should like to have it be. Congress makes the law r and the court construes It. Here congress has said! that members of that body who take bribes shall be punished. It might perhaps be com petent for congress to enact a law which would mako it a penal offense for any person to attempt to secure for another an office under the United States government, but sudi a sug gestion is not included in this statute. Instead of saying every person, it is confined to members of congress, offi cers and agents of the United States. The two houses of congress, under the constitution, are the only judges of whom shall sit as members- of their respective bodies. it A nolle was then entered in the case of James Fisher, postmaster at Hast ings, by the government.

General Reyes is still awaiting the state department's reply to his re^ quest that the correspondence be tween him and the Washington gov ernment regarding the Panama inci dent be sent to the TTnlted States sen ate.

GOVERNMENT AID ASKED Provisions of Measure Call for Expend iture of Fight Million Dollars An nually for Next Three Years. A Washington special says: Twen ty-four million dollars for good roads,] to be expended at the rate of eight millions a year during the next three years! That is the amount of appro priation carried in the good roads bill W'hich Senator Latimer, of South Car olina, has just introduced. ■ His bill sets forth an elaborate scheme for federal aid of the good roads move ment, for whicn purposes he proposes to establish in th.e department of agri culture a bureau of public highways. The object cf this bureau, accord ing to the terms of the bill, shall be to co-operate with the various states in the improvement and conalructioai of permanent public roads in accord ance with the scheme set iorth in de tail in the bill. This bureau is to con sist of three commissioners to bs known as commissuoners of highways, two of whom shall be appointed by the president, one from each of the two leading parties, these to be mea who have practical, knowledge of road engineering and construction. The third member is to be an officer of the engineering corps of the army of rank not below captain, Each is to receive compensation at the rate of $5,00(1 per year for their services. These commissioners shalL be under cue gen eral supervision of the secretary of agriculture, After the expiration of six months from the time of the passage of this act, any state, through the proper or fleers having jurisdiction of public roads, may apply for aid in the im provement or construction of public roads, under general rules to bs made by the commissioners. No state shall be entitled to receive the bene fits of this act until it shall have es-i tablished, to the satisfaction of the commissioners of highways: 1- That the highway or section thereof sought to be improved or eoa structed is of sufficient public use to j come within the purview of this act, taking into account the use, location! and value of such highway for the pur-| S>°se of common traffic and travel ana for the delivery of tho mails, 2. That the requisite right of way shall have been secured. 3. That the highway will be improv-| ed or constructed in accordance with! the regulations of the bureau, andl when so improved win be maintained] and kept in repair without recourse upon the United States. 4. That the state has- provided for its portion of the total.cost. One-half the expense is- to be borne by the federal government, the other half being borne by the state, but it is provided that the- states may dis tribute their portion of the expenses among the counties directly benefited. 1 It is further provided, that no money shall be advanced by the United States in payment of. Lts proportion of the expenses except as the work of actual construction progresses, and m no case shall the payment or pay ments made prior the completion of the work be in excess of 80 peri cent of the value of the work actually performed. To carry out tile provl3iions ©£ the bill an appropriation of $24,000;090 is provided, $8,000,00® for "1904, $8,.000,-I 000 for 1905 and; $3,000,000 for 1906. If any part of this is not expended in the year named it shall be available for the succeeding year. And' it is! further provided 1 that no state- shall receive in any one year a larger pro portion of the- sum appropriated than its* population bears to the total pop ulation of the states of the United States.
