WORLD Here is the biggest bell in the world, and it never has sounded It is the famous bell of Moscow, cast in 1735 and It was not taken from its mold until two years jafter it was cast, and in the meantime a fire had cracked it and front of it broken away. The touch of the hands of thousands never reach the publi There ‘as much debate; heated argument, intense excitement and high feeling. That wuch could be deduced from gluimpses. obtained through the glass barriers. .At one time matters become so complicated that Chief Clerk Tot- ten was dispatched to the public: tele- phone to summon. Paddock, law part- ner of Jim-Manahan of St. Paul, and one of the Jeague’s counsellors, to give the league majority legal -ad- vice which would extricate them from webs woven by the minority. And that was a full hour before house fin- ally rose from executive session and “The matter id closed unless furth- er evidence is introduced,” said a member of the special committee ap- Pointed to. investigate the bribery charges. “We left off just where we began. I do not know that we have power to do anything. T do not know that, under the circumstances, there will be any further effort to compell the member who admits that he was offered a bribe to divulge the name of the briber. I am not certain that we could compel him to give up this in- formation. We have only hearsay ev dence. as to the identity of this léged briber.

We are, so far as I-con ‘see, af a standstill in the ‘niattér.- We have ‘lost a whole legi: lative.day without getting anywhere.’ Demanding Immediate Action. Representative O’Connor -in urging the adoption of his resolution, demand- ed immediate action. He insisted that the integrity of every member of the j house had been brought into question | and that ablow had been struck at Dainty Marie : Gorhada & Fifi Cleo.

A league member followed O’Con- nor's plea with a motion that the reso- lution be referred to the state affairs committee. Chairman Maddock of that committe moved as a substitute that the resolution be referred to a special committee to report on the next legislative day. Reishus of Ward insisted that the matter was one ,calling for immediate action. “If it is a thing of such commond knowl- edge that any reporter may pick it up on the street, over night, this house should be able to-get to the bottom of the question at once.” Twichell Asks Facts. “This_is-not a matter ‘for any. se ct committee,” said Twichell of C: This is a mater which should com: |mand inithediate action before. the house as a whole. It is up to the man making this charge to get uD here, now, and reveal to the house the name of the person or. persons who attempted to bribe him.” Burtness of Grand Forks also in- ed upon immediate action of the jouse. “Questions of friendship or blood relationship should not prevent the man to whom this offer was made from getting up here now and reveal- ing. the criminal. It is not, a private mater, between. friends, it is some- thing much lerger, involving ‘the fair name of every member of this legisla- tive body.” League members ; opposed: further discussion of the matter in the open house on the,-ground that. it would give the would-be briber warning enich might afford him adie to cover up his tracks. ‘No Need for Secrecy. { “The briber has received due warn- ing through the publication of this story in the morning paper—there can be no possible excuse for secrecy now ate secret’s, out,” insisted.
