Senator Turpie of Indiana relieved the monotony of the tariff debate yesterday by making @ brief speech, occupying a little more than a columin in today’s Congression- al Record, but probably more full of bitter invective than any speech that has been de- livered on the floor of the Senate for years. Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island, the man- ager of the fight on the republican side of the chamber, was the object of Mr. Tur- pie’s attack. Mr. Turpie not only called Mr. Aldrich a prevaricator, but gave the re- mark a sort of triple plating by alleging that Mr. Aldrich was the father of three distinct falsehoods. “There are three mon- strous untruths,” he said, after scoffing at Mr. Aldrich’s intimation that the minority of the finance committee had no chance to amend the bill, “‘which stand in the way of tariff reform,and which block even the con- stab aod of Fae Eset pase Cs pis Bu bisa a le; three lies iy H three lies” eieuinesoenvante mendacity. I have no objection to legitimate debate, or even to parliamentary delay,but why should parliamentary obstruction be wholly com- Dosed of mendacity? Is there no way of de- feating the consideration of a bill or of de- laying it except by deliberate falsehood, not only with respect to its contents, but with respect to other matters not before us,never before us? Three Fables. “Today the honorable Senator from Rhode Island repeats these three fables and says, in the first place, there is a bill being prepared by the Secretary of the Treasury to supplant this one, which is to be the bill here to be considered. The Senator from Rhode Island says again there are either three or four | bundred amendments which have been | agreed to by the majority of the committee | on finance which are to form a part of the bill. Thirdly,that the present bill has never been considered by the committee and is not the bill which the committee on finance intends to present to this body for its ac- tion, Why, sir, the bill presents In itself a very substantial body. It is not invisible; it is not intangible; it is not a myth; it Is not a fable. The book containing it upon our desks is even more substantial in its stately presence than any of those of like character which have before been submit- ted to us. I suspect, sir, that the fabulous and nebulous fictions relating to this meas- ure exist upon the other side and rest large- ly with the honorable Senator from Rhode Island.” Mr. Turple referred to the denials made by Senators Harris, Vest, McPherson aiid Voorhees, and continued: ‘Now, when four gentlemen assert a thing to be false and another asserts that he is informed and be- lieves that It Is true, how could there be a more direct contradiction? How could there be a sharper Issue on the point of veracity? Where, then, shall we give credit? I prefer to believe and do beliéve absolutely the statement of the four Senators I have nam- ed, representing a majority of the commit- tee. Not only do I believe them, but I dis- believe, as I was going to say, the lesser number, but I will Correct the phrase—I dis- believe the lesser unit, the exceedingly di- minutive unit who asserts the contrary. Who is the Author of the Reports. “Who, then, is the father and author of all these reports which for the last ten or twenty days have been circulating in the press and have been given a certain amount of circulation in the chamber? Who is the father who claims their paternity except the honorable Senator from Rhode Island? He is equal to such paternity. He might doubtless claim the fatherhood of many more such things, such fictions, such f: “TI recollect very well when E state of Rhode Island and Providence tations was represented during the discussion of the McKinley bill by an honorable prede- cessor of the present honorable Senator from Rhode Island.” In this allusion Mr. Turpie referred to Mr. Aldrich himself, who Was his own successor. “That predecessor, I think, was not so rash as the present sit- ting member. He was, perhaps, a man more prudent, at least more cautious. That predecessor, sir, might have consented be the father of one of these enormous un- truths, but the triplet would have driven ; him from the field in dismay. Senator Aldrich’s Predecessor. “That predecessor, as Senators who serv- ed with him will recollect, was a young man, younger than the present sitting member, well versed in all the great fiscal policies of the government as a drug clerk is acquainted with the mixtures on his shelf; thoroughly conversant with all the ber cents incident to dutiable and non- dutiable goods, with values and importa- tions, as a retail grocer in Providence is acquainted with such things, and in such manner and in such spirit he conducted tariff discussion. Senators will recognize the lineaments and features of that wraith, the distinguished wraith of the predecessor of the honorable Senator from Rhode Island. That wraith had other peculiazi- ties; he had an enormous development of cheek, of cheek which reached from the chin and ear, on both sides, sheer down to the feet. t, then, will be thought of his thriftless successor, a man found with- out either chips or cheek when he attempt- ed to make the ‘call’ the other day? “Let me ask the Senator from Rhode Island, when he assumes the paternity of these three fictions, how will he ever at- tempt to rival his predecessor? Will he excel him in insolence or mendacity? It is utterly vain to try that. He can only hope to rival him in that hatred of the truth and in that utterance and love of the false which has always characterized the cham- pions and the cheats of protection.” A Very Brief Reply. When Mr. Turpie sat down there was a shiver of expectancy, and all eyes turned to Mr. Aldrich, who had sat during Mr. Tur- pie’s speech in an easy attitude, and with his customary smile of good nature adorn- ing his handsome countenance. Once dur- ing the early part of the speech Mr. Al- drich had risen, but Mr. Turpie declined to be interrupted, and the object of his scorn had waited untii the vials of his wrath had been emptied. Then he coolly rose, and as- tonished his hearers by making a very brief reply. “It would certainly be unworthy of the Senate,” he said in a low tone, “to under- take to reply to the speech which has just been made by the honorable Senator from Indiana. I certainly do not suppose that in the position which he now takes he repre- sents anybody but himseif, and I have no doubt, under other circumstances and un- —oSSS—_— JUST AT THIS SEASON. The Most Attractive and the Most De- ceitful of All the Year. This {s the most dangerous season of the year. It may be pleasant, may often seem attractive, but back of all the pleasant atmosphere there is danger! This danger cowes in some form of sick- ness. Almost any sickness storts with a cold or a ebill caused by the slaggish action of the system. That is why so many peeple Just now complain of | tired feelings, pains in the muscles and bones, loss of appetite, spring fever and similar troubles. ‘The following is good advice from a prominent medical journal: “Pneumonia and other dangerous complairts, which result from a neglected cold, can be avoided if a timely remedy is taken. When chilly sensations are felt they should be stopped immediately or serious consequences will follow. There is only one way known to the world of avoiding a cold or chills, and that is to vse a good, pure, strong stimulant. Nothing ordinary will do. It must be something sure in its action and scientifically prepared. For this rea- son nothing bas ever equaled Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky, which ts acknowledged today by physi- cians and scientific men to be the only pure medic- imal whisky on the market."” This valuable advice may be profitably followed by many people who are suffering today from the early effects of cold, chills or possibly grip in its advanced stages. Duffy's Pure Malt is always re- liable and effective. People should not, however, permit any dealer to substitute something which | q: is claimed tu be “just as good’ or “about the same thing.” Nothing else can possibly compare A ye ad ran ens a eg Mitchell of lost—10 to 33.

To Compel Attendance. Mr. Harris gave warning that he would introduce a motion to compel the at- tendance of absent Senators, and Mr. Cock- Tell warned the Senate that he would im- mediately present a resolution directing the secretary of the Senate to withhold from absent Senators the pay for each day they ore shepnt This, he declared, is in accord- ance with section 40 of the Ri Stat- utes, recently revived in the House.

Sudden End of His Month’s Illness at Chicago. : Francis Browne Stockbridge, United States Senator from Michigan, died at Chicago last night a few minutes after 7 o'clock. The end came suddenly, although the Senator had been confined to his bed almost all the time since going to Chicago from Washbing- ton, April 2. He died at the residence of his nephew- in-law, James L. Houghteling. His wife, Mr. and Mrs. Houghteling and the trained nurse, who gave the warning of the Sena- tor's speedy dissolution to the family, were present at the deathbed. The Senator had been feeling better dur- ing the day and hoped to be able to leave for Kalamazoo, his Michigan home, but the Physicians did not share the hopes of the | dying man. While the family was at din- | ner word was brought by the nurse which summoned all to thé bedside,and three min- utes afterward the Senator breathed his last. Death was caused by angina pectoris. The funeral services will be held in Kala- mazoo next Thursday in St. Luke’s Episco- pal Church, of which the Senator was a member. The interment will also take lace there. His two sisters, Mrs. W. D. foughtéeling and Mrs. Theodore T.' Sheldon, are visiting at Asheville, N. C. The Sena- tor had been in poor health for ‘several years, and was on his way to California by order of his physician when taken i in Chicago. . by Francis B. Stockbridge was born at Bath, Me., April 9, 1 He received a good com- mon School education and removed to Bos- ton in 1843, where he spent four years as clerk in a wholesale business “house. In 1847 he Went to Chicago and opened a lum- ber yard, having connection with extensive saw mill plants in Michigan. In 1851 he re- moved to Allegan county, Mich., to take charge of his mills, residing for a time at Saugatuck, but since 1863 at Kala- M™Mazoo. He served colonel of Michigan militia and in both branches of the state legislature. In 1886 he was elected publican to the United States Senate, suc- ceeding Senator Conger, and taking his seat March 4, 1887. He was re-elected in 1893. Michigan Delegation Meet. The Michigan congressional delegation met in Senator McMillan’s rooms today to take action upon the death of Senator Stockbridge. No formal resolutions were adopted, but the following message, signed by all the members of the delegation, was wired to Mrs. Stockbridge: ‘The members of the Michigan delegation in Congress de- sire to express to you their sincere sym- pathy in your great bereavement.” Among the members of the delegation who will attend the funeral, which will take place at Kalamazoo Thursday at 4 p.m., are Sen- ator McMillan and Representatives Bur- rows, Thomas, Aitken and Richardson. They will leave here tomorrow. ‘Talk About the Succession. A special dispatch to The Star from Grand Rapids, Mich., says: The news of the death of Senator Stock- bridge is received with profgund sorrow throughout the state and comes so suddenly that the succession is scarcely thought of. It is thought that Gov. Cyrus G. Luce Stands the best chance for the appointment by Gov. Rich, but Congressman Julius Cea- sar Burrows’ friends will not fail to urge his claims for the honor. The appointment, it is thought, lies between these two. Indircet Cause of Denth. Many of the friends in this city of the late Senator Stockbridge ascribe his death to the Chicago cable cars. Last summer while attending the world’s fair the Senator was knocked down by a cable car and dragged along for some distance by the heavy vehicle over the rough paving stones. The apparent injuries were not serious, but the nervous shock to a man of the Sena- tor’s years and habit of life was very sé- vere. Even after he was able to get about and reapme his senatorial duties, he still suffered ‘and complained of the effects of the rough shock, and it is believed that it must have directly weakened and inter- fered with the heart action, and thereby at least precipitated the end which came yes- terday. ———— THE ABORIGINES OF EUROPE, Gardiner G. Hubbard’s Lecture Before the Columbian Preparatory School, “A parallel line drawn from the lower part of Greenland strikes Norway south of Christiania, north of Stockholm; lines from the north and south of Labrador pass through England; while Greenland and Labrador are cold, barren and desolate, the same latitudes in England bloom and flour- ish.” With these words Dr. Gardiner G. Hubbard, president of the National Geo- graphic Society, began yesterday a lecture full of interest and instruction before the students of the Columbian College Prepar- atory School. The lecturer pictured the geographical and ethnological conditions of Europe tn the ages when England had not been rent asunder from the continent by the violence of the German ocean, when the aborigines dwelt in security in the lands whence succeeding invasions drove them. The first invasion—that of the Aryans, com- ing no one knows from what land, perhaps from the southeastern part of Russia—be- gan the rout of the original possessors, which Irruptions of Huns and Arabs com- pax Remnants of these aborigines may found today in the land of the Basques, among the Laps and Finns, in the north of Scotland, in the west of Ireland, and, in thi olden day habitant: f northern Europe differ e: tirely from the dwellers in the south. C matic influences cause these distinctions, which are seen in form, in character and in religion, the gods of Scandinavia bringing before our eyes images of war and might and terror; the deities of Greece showing in story and tradition gentle attributes. While the Italian is emotional, the Norseman is practical. The one people who combine the excellences of the two divisions of Europe are the English race. Dr. Hubbard then ex- plained to hig audience the growth of civ- flization, telling them that its birth in Europe was in Greece, whence it grew until it reached Italy, Norway, Spain, Mngland, Germany, &c., making its influeace felt last of all in Russia. A most interesting fact, unknown to a majority of his hearers, Was that Norway was the third nation which received the blessings of civilization. This Norway obtained through commerce and the sailing of her ships over far-distant Seas. He referred to the slow development of civilizing institutions in Russia, whose lands were held by communes, whose spirit of progress was so slow that not until the exigencies of war in the Crimea demanded id the Russians begin the building of rafl- roads. Dr. Hubbard was most happy in his treatment of this subject, and his hearers with that which bas proven itself by years of use| testified their appreciation of hig lecture by to be the best and purest ia the world. to express their LATE SPORTING NEW HAD ON BATTING CLOTHES.

St. Lous, Cleveland and Boston Tied for the Lead. It required ten innings to settle the Phil- adelphla-Boston game in the Quaker city yesterday afternoon. The home people at- tribute the result to a decision by Umpire Hurst.

Under this delegation of power it is per- fectly compenent, I think, for the Com- missioners to make regulations prohibiting hucksters and licensed vendors from occupy- ing the stands adjacent to the public mar- kets of the city, set apart for the use of farmers and gardeners selling their own produce. It seems to me that section 1 of article 3 of the police regulations covers the subject, and that if licensed vendors and hucksters insist on occupying the spaces adjacent to the markets set apart for farm- ers and gardeners, they are Mable to prose- cution under existing police regulations.” —____— Money for the Y.

About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon not a little excitement was created in the lobby of Willard’s Hotel by a man suddenly throw- ing up his arms, pulling off his coat, vest and hat and ling wildly, “Take them, but don’t kill me.” The next moment he darted out of the hotel, running up 14th street. Near Ni York avenue Officer Cramer caught the fellow and carried him to the first precinct. He was locked up in @ cell and for several hours made things in his immediate neighborhood exceedingly lively. He tore off his clothing, pulled out his hair and yelled that he was a Coxeyite from way back. He covered the floor of the cell wit! torn bits of his clothing, explaining that the stone floor was too hard on his feet. Twice he attempted to hang himself with his sus- penders, but was promptly cut down. Then he crowded into the cell drainage tub, pulled the lid down, but was pulled out by Station Keeper Rollins. After this he became quiet and was later in the evening sent to St. Elizabeth’s Insane Asylum upon the certif- cate of Police Surgeon Hickling that the man was insane.
