MOVING PICTURES (Imp) THE MUSICAL MONROES MOVING PICTURES (Imp) PADDOCK & PADDOCK | Ship Subsidy Bill Introduced WOULD DECLARE SEAT VACANT | Beveridge Submits Minority Report in Lorimer Case. LATTER CLAIMS INNOCENCE Makes Brief Speech In Which He De- nies Bribery on the Pa#t of Himself or His Friends—President Taft Said to Be Actively Interested in the Ef- fort to Oust the lllinois Member. Washington, Jan. 10.—The fight to prevent Senator Lorimer of Illinois re- taining his seat in the United States senate was opened with a contest be- tween Senators Beveridge of Indiana and Owen of Oklahoma, both of whom contested the right to fire the first gun in the same cause. Senator Beveridge, by virtue of be- ing a member of the committee on “privileges and elections, which investi- gated charges of bribery against Mr, Lorimer, gained a tactical victory by filing a minority report attacking the petition of his colleagues on the com- mittee Who voted to exonerate the| Illinois senator. Senator Owen, however, introduced a resolution to declare the election of Senator Lorimer to have been illegal and void, but he was not permitted to address the senate in its support. The senate held that the resolution under the rules would have to go over for a day. Mr. Beveridge then sub- mitted his report, the conclusion of which was: “That this election was invalid un- der any possible view of the law. If the senate so concludes it is our duty so to declare. Therefore I submit the | following resolution: Lorimer Not Duly Elected. “‘Resolved, That William Lorimer was not duly and legally elected to a seat in the senate of the United States | by the legislature of the state of - | | mois’ " . | Before the report was filed Senator Lorimer made a brief speech declar- ing his innocence of bribery and the innocence of his friends of any par-| ticipation in corrupt practices in con- nection with his election. He announced his intention to be present during the discussion of his case. President Taft is actively interested in the Lorimer case and it has been said that it was largely due to him that Senator Burton of Ohio decided to take a leading part in the fight -against the Illinois senator. This miring in by the president is resented by some of the old school senators, who contend that the sen- ate and the senate alone is the judge of the qualification of its own mem- bers. It is said that one and pos- sibly two speeches are in process ot incubation that will assail the presi- dent bitterly along this line. Senator Bailey of Texas and Senator Paynter of Kentucky are named as two pros- pective defenders of the senate’s pre- rogatives. 18 LIMITED TO SOUTH AMERICA in Senate. PRESENTED BY GALLINGER Measure Forbids Contracts Going to Any Bidder Engaged in Competitive Rail Transportation, This Provision Being Expected to Break Any Monopoly—Cost Limited to $4,000, 000 Annually. ‘Washington, Jan. 10.—Senator Ja- cob H. Gallinger of New Hampshire introduced a revised ocean mail sub- sidy bill which eliminates from pres- ent consideration all transpacific lines and applies only to the establishment of ocean mail services on routes to South America, south of the equator— that is, to Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Peru. No special provision is made for lines to the isthmus of Panama, be- cause it is expected the canal will be open for commerce by the summer of 1913, which is as soon as the proposed new lines could be established. Steam ships then can pass through the canal on the long routes to the west coast of South America. As in other bills presented, it is proposed that the postmaster general shall be authorized to pay for ocean mail service on vessels of the second class on South American routes, the same rate per mile ($4) as is now paid for service on vessels of the first class between the United States and Eu- ropean ports. - In order to serve the new commerce which it is expected ‘the canal will open for the Southern states it is pro- vided that if more than one line is es- tablished from the North Atlantic coast one of the lines shall touch at least one port south of Cape Charles for mail, passengers and freight on the outward and homeward passages. A provision, which is new in subsidy bills, forbids the award of any con- tract for an ocean mail line to any bid- der engaged in competitive transporta- tion by rail, or in the business of ex- porting or importing merchandise. Moreover, the postmaster general is directed to cancel any contract, the performance of which shall “rest with. in the control of any competitive rail road company, or any person or per- ‘sons in control of ilie same through stock ownership or otherwise. Limited to $4,000,000 Annually. The postmaster general is directed also to cancel any contracts held by any person who gives undue prefer- ence to any particular persons, cor- porations or locality, or any particular description of traffic. The total expenditure in any one year under the bill is not to exceed $4,000,000 and shall not, in any case, exceed the amount of revenue re: ceived from the foreign mail service over .and above the amount otherwise paid for such service. The framers of the bill believe that it will break the present monopoly in ocean transportation between the United States and the principal coun- tries of South America. It is regard- ed as likely to create at least two lines from the Atlantic coast to Brazil and Argentina and a line from Puget sound and San Francisco to Panama and the west coast of South America. These new services would require the construction of from twenty to thirty steamships, capable of a speed of at least sixteen knots an hour and with a gross tonnage of from 8,000 to 12, 000, to be built on designs approved by the navy department. Under the terms of the contracts the ships would have to be turned over to the United States government in times of war. Not one American steamship is now running on any of the routes covered by the bill. COTTAGES BURIED BY SNOW Avalanches of Extraordinary Volume Reported From Italy. Turin, Italy, Jan. 10.—Avalanches from the Alps of extraordinary extent| are reported, particularly in the prov- ince of Cuneo. Between the villages of Limone and Vernants two snow- slides estimated at 500,000 cubic feet have obstructed the railway. In cer- tain districts near Maddalena hill many homes have been isolated. In one valley the ohly things appearing above the snow are chimney tops and the upper ends of telegrzph poles. 'ARGUMENTS IN TOBAGEO CASE Highest Court Hears the| Pleas of Attorneys. CALLED A FAIRY TALE Counsel for Corporation So Charac. terizes Portrayal of J. C. McRey- nolds of the Department of Justice, Who Asserted Tobacco Trust Was Constructed Out of Fortunes of Dis- heartened Competitors. Washingion, Jan. 10.—To listen to the story of the tobacco business of the world was the day’s work almost exclusively” of the supreme court of the United States. First the govern- ment was to conclude its tale of the growth, wealth and power of the so called “tobacco trust,” portrayed as having been constructed out of the | fortunes of disheartened competitors. Then there was to be heard some- thing from the other side, by way of defense, of the lawful acquisition, through keen American ingenuity, of tobacco industries. Upon it all de- pends the proposed dissolution of the American Tobacco corporation as .a combination or monopoly in restraint of trade. J. C. McReynolds was to conclude his opening argument on behalf of the government. On Friday last both bar and court followed him intently as he described the trade in tobacco, first in the colo- nial days, with rival buvers coming to the door of the farmer’s cabin to barter for the leaf from his tobacco patch, and then in the present day, when he described competition in the leaf market as so completely eradi- cated that the American Tobacco cor- poration even purchased leaf on com- mission for the British “tobacco trust.” “That is as interesting as a fairy tale,” said one who had sat under the spell of the speaker to Delancey Nic- oll, who was to open the argument for the tobacco corporation. “It is a fairy tale,” remarked Mr. Nicoll, as he jotted down a note for reference in his argument immediate- 1y following Mr. McReynolds. After the history had been conclud- ed there was much speculation as to whether or not the court would ply the attorney with questions, revealing possibly the knotty points which may have led to the assignment of the case for reargument. POISON MYSTERY UNSOLVED Wife Held Pending Investigation Be- comes Stricken in Cell. Pittsburg, Jan. 10.—With George N Strobacker, well known merchant of Sheridan, recovering from strychnine poisoning and the condition of his wife becoming hourly more serious the police are striving to explain the latest phase of the poison mystery, how the drug was administered to Mrs. Strobacker while in a cell at the police station. B It was ten hours after the woman'’s arrest that she was seized with con- vulsions and the physicians at the South Side hospital agree that the poison could not have been given to her before she was taken into cus- tody. . Her condition became so critical that it was necessary to remove her to the hospital,” where her husband was taken Saturday afternoon. An analysis of jelly spread on the bread in the lunch Strobacker took with him from home Saturday is said by the physicians to have contained sufficient strychnine to kill twenty persons and that an overdnse was all that saved Strobacker’s life. 3 8350 STORE HOURS 8AM 6P M Great Throngs of Eager Buyers Ushered in the January Sale of White Saturday We Are Now Featuring Three Sales In One The Garment Clearance Suits and Coats -2 Price Sale of Furs 1-3 Reduction Sale of White Value Giving S——— French Musling Joins White Sale Forces at -3 Reductions We place on sale everything in our French underwear de- partment, all our stock in Combinations, Gowns, Slipps, Drawers and Skirts. extensive Selections are composed only of splendid made garments.
