Congress Set to Debate Way Pauncefote Treaty and Ship Subsidy
Washington dispatch outlines Senate focus on the Way Pauncefote treaty and the ship subsidy bill with Nicaragua canal legislation set as a priority. It notes expected speeches by Clay Vest and Berry opposing the subsidy, and mentions possible adjournment around the centennial of government seated in Washington. The House plans appropriation bills and war tax reductions with brewing interests seeking further beer tax cuts, offset by bank check tax retention. A preacher, Rev William E Johnson, is later acquitted of murder in Bamberg court.
