i HEAR- HISS FOR THE FIRST B New Experience Tn U. S. Senate Throug Caustic Words of Senator Bailey- GALLERY RESENTED HIS REMARKS Texas Man Cast Slur Upon the Intelligence of His Audience—Occurs During Lorimer Debate—Beve ridge Has Yet to Finish His Speech Against Seating the Senator from Illinois. 2 = - 4 Washington, Feb. 21.—Shrilly rising appluse with which the gulleries had greeted a comment reflecting upon the intelligence of thows sibllant hiss ‘hamber of the United So far as many who long have been conmected with it eould recall, never before had a hiss been heard in that digpified body.

No notice was taken of the incident by senators or officers of that body. Beveridge Speaks More Than Four The day in the senate was largely case. Senator took the about 1 o'clock “But where did Brown, Broderick and Wilson get it?* persisted Mr. Gal- linger. Mr. Beveridge confessed that he 4id mot know, and to assist him somewhat the New Hampshire senator that as the men who had to recelving the money were “a band of Mars” no one could tell ‘whether there was any foundation for their charges in this instance. “It makes no difference where the money came from,” Mr. Crawford said, ¥ Applause from the Galleries. the galleries. O, audience.’ Then the Hiss. | Then the hiss was heard. Declaring there was mot a scintilla with the charge of bribery, Mr. Bailey asked Mr. Beveridge if he believed Browne, Broderick and Wilson had suppliei the money. and the Indiana semator replied in the negative, ex- pressing the opinion that it had been turnished to The Texas sena- tor then declared that if there had actually been money in the posdession of Hoitzlaw, Beckemeyer, Link and | White, its source easily could have | been traced. No effort had been made he sald, to show that five cents had been drawn from Lorimer's bank, and | he argued that if money had been used for M. Lorimer the bank books would haye shown this fact. Appeal to Corimon Sense. Mr. Crawford, Interrupting, . said common sense led to the presumption that those who profited by the tran- saction furnished the money. Mr. Bajley was just as compliment- ary in his response. “When the sen- ator suggests a resort to the rules of common sense. he should not violate such rules himseif” he said, The trouble, he safd, was that it was as- sumed 'that money had been used as the witnesses charged. “Then,” said Mr, Beveridge, “it was all & dream.” "No, not & dream; it was all a lle,” responded Mr. Bailey. 7 “Does not the semator believe that Holatiaw deposited the $2,500 as ap- | pears in evidence?” Mr. Balley was asked by Mr. Beveridge, and he promptly replied that he did not. Motive Was to Destroy Lorimer's Character. “What motive could have prompted :5'0 testimony ?” the Indianan demand- “Thé same motive that caused oth- erd. td want to-destroy” Mr. Lorimer’s character.” ‘was Mr. Balley's explana- jon. At this point Mr. Beveridge intro- duces an afidavit from Jarvis New- ton, chief clerk of the Chicago State bank, together with a protographic copy of the famous deposit slip. Mr, Bailey promptly seized the opportun- ity to obtain unanimous consent to the publication of the slip in the Con- sreesional Record for the purpose of sustaining, he said, his charge of for- gery. Refers to the Jackpot.. Mr. Cummins advanced the theory that the money said to have been used in the election of Mr. Lorimer had origin similar to that of the famous Jjackpot, and the senate was engaged in the discussion of this proposition, when an adjournment was taken for the day. g MADE MAXIMUM SPEED OF 31568 KNOTS, | Terpedo Boat Destroyer on First Trial orpgdo | knots an hour on wsoceptance standardization ‘was sent over the course extra rune being ne- éessitated by the fallure of the coun %0 show the record of one run a S She sucien The meas of runs,at igheat apeed was ‘The maximum horse power de- 18,548, The trial and sud- anchor and steering tests were succossful. ppe started on her four hour full speed she must average 29 1-2 to comie within contract require- Snowden is president of inepection and survey v C.

HEAVIEST BATTERY IN THE WORLD On Two New Battleships for the United States—House Completes Na- val Bill. ‘Washington. Feb. 21.—The house late today completed the naval appropria- tion bill and will pass it tomorrow morning. As agreed to when ready for amendment today, it provides for the construction of two hew batileships; two fleet colliers, eight torpedo boat | destroyers and four submarine torpedo boats. The iwo battieships are to be the largest ever: comsiructed in this country, and whilg the authorization fixes the displacement of these sup dreadnaughts at 27,000 tons, there i a llkelihood that they may go up to 30,- 000 tons. Twelve 14-Inch Rifles. The new battleships will have twelve 14-ingh rifles; the heaviest battery ever placed on a ship in this country, or in the world. These guns will be ar- ranged in four turrets, three guns in esch turret. This arrangement is en- tirely new. Russia is building such a ship, however, and Japan has ordered a battleship-cruiser carrying a similar battery. Hobson Wanted Another Ship. The decision in favor of twe battle- ships came on a test vote on a motion to eut the number down to one. This motion was defeated, 139 to 114. A motion by Mr. Hobson, who was re- terred to by Chairman Tawney of the appropriations committeé “as the high priest of war," to increase the number of battleships to_three, was defeated 161 to 9. Mr. Hobson sought to add a battleship-cruiser of 28 knots’ specd to the building programme, but was again defeated. e Othier Amendments Proposed. Representative Rucker of Colorado proposed cutting out the entire para- sraph for the. increase of the navy. 3Ir. Mondell of Wyoming sought to add two transports to the programme and Mr. Sulzer to increase the number of colilers to three and Mr. Humphrey of Washington to.have the number of submarines increased to eix. All these offers failed. Restriction About Submarines. An amendment was adoptsd proy ing that no part of the money set apart for the submarines should be expenced with any firm or corporation which had not at the time of beginning work on the boats astablished an eight hour day for all laborers and 2mployes who were to be employed on the boafs.

Washington, Feb. 21.—Temperatures i |ithis morning were below seasonal av. | erage in every part of the country ex- | cept the north Pacific coast, caused by an increased barometric pressure, according to the weather bureau. Miles ~ City, Alont, reported the barometer there .as reading 3110 inches this morning, this being the highest reading recorded in the United States in the Iast several years.

Hill of Connecticut, member of the housa ways and means committee, in ‘whicl he urged ¢ndorsement of the:Canadion reciprocity treaty, the ‘local chember of commerce passed & resolution today recommending the fatification of the agredment.

'The largest crowd was in the judiciary _room, swhere more than a score of local judgeships were on the list, there b ing several contests.

Income Tax Is a Good One. T. M. Crowley of Hartfore repre- senfing” the Workingmen's Political league, and Mayor Fisher of Middle- town, representing the Hartford Cen- tral Labor union, advecated such pow- or being given to congress. Said Mr. Fisher: “I advocate the income tax because I believo it is.a food tax. It is income alone that makes it pos- sible for a man to_pay taxes. The income tax has been found uniformly a 500d tax. The Hartford Central La~ bor union is composed of 5,000 bright, alert men who favor the tax. Over 5000 Will Pay in Conneoticut. “"The income tax is in & sense In- quisitorial, but' it has proved . more satisfactory than any alternative tax.

Baitimore,; Feb. 21.—In an effort to determine scientifically the race of a child, staff physicians at Johns Hop- kins hospital today made an examina- tion of Luella Leftridge, an ecleven- year-old girl, who is trying to obtain her freedom from a negro institution in which she has been confined for nearly seven years. The examination, it is said, did not settle the question, but the lawyers for the girl declare there would be no let-up in the fight for her release. Only On# Sign of Negro Blood. The physical ~ characteristic by which physicians are said to be able to determine the presence of negro blood, but which are held by some authorities to be “utterly valueless, The main point to be settled—one debate for decades—is what can real- 1y be comsidered the line of demarca- tion between a white person and a negro. In the present case was stated that all the accepted tests for the presence of negro blood, save one, had failed: That ome is the presence of a black line aergss one of the girl's fingernails just around the arc known as the half-moon. This Test Not Conclusive. The presence of. the black line, ac- cording to the doctors, is not conclus- ive, but only raises a suspicion as to the ancestry of the,child, who wiil be examined by other physicians.

INTERESTS AFFECTED Statement Brought Out in Senate Hearing on Reoiprocity. ‘Washington, = Feb. 21—By adroit questioning, Senator Hale of Maine, who took a prominent role today in opposing the Canadian reciprooity agresment in the hearings given by the semate committes on finance, put into the record statements by wit- nesses that President Taft, Secretary of State Knex and the American com- missioners had failed to consult any of the interests affected by the agree- ment negotiated. . _Ruin Gleucester Fishermen. The strongest statement in this re- gard was magde by Representative Gardner~ of Missachusetts; -who ap- peazed.in the interest of the Gloucester fisheries. ~After predicting that the effect of the 'Canadian —agrecment would be to ruin the fishing interests of this country, which are centered at Gloucester, which predietion was based upon the effect of Canadian bounties paid_to hei fishermen and the subsi- dized warel\uses of Canada, Mr. Gargdner was_catechized by Semator Hale, The Maine senator -developed Mr.-Gardner's interest in the subject. “Were you ever consulted by &ny- one about the effect the proposed agreement would have upon this great industry in advance of the agrecinent being sent in here?’asked Mr. Liale.

Mr. Hgle asked him what he had in mind, and Mr. Jones replied that the senators could prevent the agreement | coming to a vote if they wanted to. “Well, the president is pretty deter- tined,” sald Mr. Hale. “What if we flll. down before he does?” Free Trade for Everybedy in Two * Years. Mr. Jones replied that he had been voting the republican ticket for years and, served notice that if there was to be free trade for farmers there would have to be free trade for’everybody else, “and that within two years.” Raising his voice to a high pitch, he said: Go Along Without Jones. “I voted for Abraham Lincoln and have voted for every republican pres- ident since, but if the republican party is to foliow this course, by the eter- nal, it will have to go along without Jones.” .
