J. Godwin of Morton called on his fol- lowers to “go down the line” on a bill to appropriate $8,500 to pay ex- penses of last July's special session called by ousted Governor William Langer. Strife between opposing factions broke into the open again, as God- win called on majority members of the house to “show this house is a Teal majority” and to “go down the line” in support of the proposed ‘measure.

(Pat) ‘lannigan, Norpartisan League ex- ecutive committeeman, appeared be- for the committee in support of the eppropriation. Figure Reduced to $8,088 Flannigan said it had been com- Puted that members of the senate ‘and house would need $8,088 to de- fray their expenses at the special Gathering which was called by Lan-| ger shortly before he was removed by the supreme court as governor. On motion of Math Dahl of Emmons, the committee report favored $8,500. Total mileage of the house and senate members who attended the special session was Flannigan told the committee. The bill came out of committee with a divided report, with Dr. F. D. Hurd of Renville, leading the op- posing minority group, calling for indefinite postponement of action on the proposal. The majority recom- mended favorable passage. Twichell Terms Session Mlegal L. L. Twicheli of Cass, one of the leaders of the fight to postpone ac- tion on the bill termed the session an “illegal one” and declared “you have no legal right to have it. “I'll take the money out of my own pocket and begin a court action to enjoin you,” Twichell shouted at Godwin. Godwin retorted that a “majority in the house curing the early part of the special session would have been obtained earl: if you had come out of your room at your hotel.” “I told the sergeant-of-arms to come and get me,” Twichell flashed back. “You were afraid to come and get me. I had a writ of habeas corpus all ready for have gone into the and have obtained a g on the legality of the session ediately.” Many Demand Floor The house fell into vocal turmoil ‘as house members popped from their feats, demanding the right to speak, or clamorously denying claims of oth- ers, Speaker William Crockett pound- ed vainly for order. Twichell maintained the special Bession was illegal, basing his claim on the assertion that Governor Ole Olson had dissolved the order call- ing the special session, immediately ‘ollowing the call issued by Langer. Nels P. Noben of Golden Valley, declared “I was one of those who fame to the special session and I didn’t get any revoking order.” “That doesn’t make any differ- ence,” Twichell flared back, “you Still have no right to the money.” Gilbertson Backs Twichell Ben Gilbertson of Stutsman took the floor to announce, “I got an Inmitation to come to the special ses- sion and I got an invitation to stay home, and I did stay home. I don’t think they have any right to this pay—it's not legal—if we pay this, then we might just as well go down the line and pay anything they ask for. I am absolutely opposed to any- Shing like this.” Questioning the legality of the or- ginal order of Langer calling the session because he claimed it lack- ed the official seal of the secretary of state, Sam Oglesby of Barnes, said, he “paid no more attention to the call of Langer than I would to one of the maintenance men, I also got a notice from Governor Olson, calling the session off,” he added. Oglesby's argument on the seal brought him into open debate with Math Dahl of Emmons, who asked Mt there “was a seal on the notice _ You got from Olson?” “No—it was a telegram,” said slesby. “Then that wasn't any more legal either,” Dahl declared.

Reeves, commanding the fleet maneuvers, took charge of all air lines to direct the search. All hands in the Mare Island navy yard in San Francisco bay were ord- ered to stand by. The Red Cross di- rected nearby agencies to be ready to lend aid. The naval hospital ship Relief was ordered to speed to the ‘scene from southern California. Quickly Pick Up 81 Three ships breaking from the column of cruisers, with the aid of their powerful searchlights and cal- cium flares let off by the Macon, quickly picked up the 81 survivors. The Richmond took aboard 64, the Concord 11 and the Cincinnati 6. After a futile search of the dark waters for the two missing men, they continued to San Francisco.

A traveler who had a@ faculty for being where things happen, Cushing was an eye witness to the shooting of President McKinley. That was in Buffalo, N. Y. Cushing rushed to a telegraph station and wired the story to a Minneapolis newspaper, beating press services and other agencies by 11_ minutes with his story. The night McKinley died—11 days later—Cushing secured a 2,500 word interview from Mark Hanna, the Re- publican “boss.” That story was flashed on wires from coast to coast. Another news break was his.
