ALLEN ATTACKS ADMIRAL SANPSON Gentleman from Nebraska That Naval Ofcer ix n “C eited Other Disngree- able Things. mol WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—An importent amendment to the Philippines amendment to the army appropriation bill was agreed 10 in the senate today. It was an amplif- cation to ‘the amendment previously of fered by Mr. Hoar, luying restrictions upon the sale of public lands and the granting of franchises and concessions in the Philip pines. It was accepted by the committee in charge of the measure and fs now « part of the committee amendment. Mr. Morgun of Alabama continued his speech begun y terday and occupied the floor during the greater part of the day He concluded his wddress just before the afternoon after having discussed comprehensively Loth the Philippines and Cuban amend wents. He appealed (o the committee withdraw both, maintaining that congress was treading upon dangerous round and trifling with edged tools in acting upon them without ample information During the afternoon Mr. Allen obtained the floot from Mr. Morgan and severely arraigned Rear Admiral Sampson for some endorsc- ments he is tald to have made upon an application of Chief Gunner Charles Morgan of the navy for promotion to the grade of commissiozer officer Sen pr Allen's Atinck, Mr. Allen’s denunciation of Sampson was sensational. He said there was “a snobbish aristocracy in the navy that is detrimental to the country and u disgrace (o the country, represented by this officer and other like officers.” “William P. Bampson,”” declared Mr. Al len, with vehemence, “is a conceited ass, wud he ought to be marked down as such We are ot bringing up in this country race of snobs. If I am correctly informed, theto was a time when Sampson was no better than Charles Morgan, the gunner “He came from no better stock. _I am &lad to repeat that we are not raising in the United States a class of braw jeweled aristocrats. If this rank and arrant coward recess Admiral we le to bo believed, the time may never come | in this country when a poor boy may at tain to such a position as his abilities war- rant him holding.” As Mr. Morgan rose to resume his speech, Mr. Allen remarked “I want to say triends that I am responsible say."

It is the original pro- duction that s said to have cost Julia Ar- thur's millionaire husband $60,000, and there can be little doubt in the minds of any of the large audience, which entirely filled Boyd's theater last night, of the truthful- ness of the latter statement. It was ob tained only by Miss Walsh's managers after Miss Arthur had decided to retire from th stage and, in the language of the day, has proved what might be termed & ten-trike, for this promising young actress, who, it she makes as rapid progress up the ladder of success in the next few years as she has in the past, will surely find herself nt the head of her profession in Ameérica But to return tothe play itself. It is one which deals with French history dur {ing the romantic period when Napoleon was {made emperor and Josephine empress. It | depiets the trials and tribulations of Jo- sephine from the time of her marriage to Napoleon up to that when he divorced her. | It is well written, although considerable | liberty has been taken with the history of | the time, which, however, according to the ethice of dramatic writers, Is permissible, on account of what they term poetic license. |1¢ 18 opulent in dramatic interest, which I8 unceasiug throughout the entire five lacts, ‘and gives an insight into the domestic [ 1ife of Napoleon, which has not heretofore been shown by a dramatist. His selfish ambitions, his cruelty of mature and his utter disregard for the rights of any are shown in d contrast to the poble and everlasting devotion of the self sacrificing mpress There is little, or practically nothing, in the piece that shows the quali- | ties which made Napoleon one of the greatest men of history On the other |hand, the searchlight is kept constantly | turned upon the baseness of his nature and | through it il not a redeeming quality is | discernible. As Josephine, Mies Walsh is seen to what | is doubtless her best advantage. She fs | particularly fortunate in possessing the | queenly stature, together with the other charms of beauty that makes her charac- terization a real personage rather than a mere studled copy.

When he got their replies anothe conference would be tield with the league's committee It was said tonight that the hitch came about over the proposition of the players to submit all disagreements to an arbitra- tion committee. The magnates are sald to oppose it as impracticable. They maintain that the appointment of a separate arbitra- tion committee for every grievance from a player would mean nothing but com- mittees at work all the time. Ite to Tie Up, A report was current that had agreed to o the players’ demands, provided the latter agreed not to sign with any organization not playing under the ational agreement.

The main event was a handicap wrestling m between Frank Coleman, the club’s wrestling direc tor, and Frank Greenman, a member of the local fire department, who has long been known as one of the cleverest wres tlers in Omaha Coleman, by the terms of the articles of agreement, was to throw his opponent three ttmes within an hour. He turned the trick neatly and had plenty of time 1o epare. The three falls were gained in ex- actly thirty-two minutes and Nty seconds Coleman demonstrated the superior skili h has already made him famous in wrestling circles the country over and has alned for him the hip *acific coast. His cleverness entitles him nk with the foremost of the profes- wrestlers of the land. Greenman de- serves much praise for the splendid work he did on the mat, but was pitted against an adversary whose skill so far exceeded his own that the outcome of the match was easily anticiputed Both men were in_prime condition and their appearance in the ring at 10:20 was greeted with tumultuous applause. There was little preliminary ‘maneuvering and the wrestlers were on the mat before the struggle had been In progress longer than a few secands. Greenman's efforts were exerted entirely toward stalling versary's attempts to throw him until the last round did he take the gressive at all. Thelr work was fast clever and Coleman got the first fall nine minutes and fifty seconds. He hammer-locked “Greenman with his left arm and secured & crotch hold with the right. Picking him up in the air he r the hammer-lock and while Green mun was suspended in midair with his head down Coleman joined his right arm crotch hold with the léft and had a deadlock The second round proceeded uimost ex- actly the same length of time as the first and Coleman got the fall at the end of ten minutes by employment of # half Nelson with his right arm. Turning Greenman backward he pinned him (o the mat with a Halsh-lock. Greenman made his best showing in the third round. He seemed determined to stay out time limit and essayed a deal of work. His opponent _finally wrested himself away from his somewhat precarious position and got a half Nelson crotch hold, finishing it up. with a Halsh. took_thifteen minutes to finish the last round Other events on the program were a wrestling exhibition between two little boys, Iarl Holman and Willle Lyons, and sparring exhibitions by Reddy Rooney and the “Yellowhamr Mike Carr and Chris Boysen, “Pat Crowe’ and Billy Haley, Denny 'Haley and Tom Mitchell and the Stafford broihers im Stafford and erced. DECLINE TO CHANGE RULES New York Yacht Club Proposals Ameri « enger. in Sandy Griswold rof- Annwers the Cap EW YORK, Feb, 6.~The answ of lenge com- mittee to the requests of the Royal Ulster ) ¢ the agreed upon conditions of the com- ing America’'s cup races should bo r celved by the latter club before the ¢ of this week. The letter was dispatched hy the steamer St. Louis. which sailed on Wednesday of last week It has been understood that the Roval Ulsters asked that there be a one-gun Atart for the yachts, that three weeks be al lowed Shamrock 11 to refit after its arrt N this side, and that the yachts be mca ured in the Brooklyn Navy yard docks, as the Columbfa and Shamrock 1 _were. The committes of the New York Yacht club declined to make public its decision and has not yet done, sa. It I8 rumored that in the matter of the starting of the yachts the committee has adhered to the two minutes time allowed for crossing ithe line, as orlginally agroed upon with the Royal Ulsters, and that it has notified them, that thé one-gun start does Bot meet with approval. It is also sald that in the matter of th three weeks asked for for refitting after arrival here the committee holds to the dates named for the races in the Royal Ulsters' challenge, that s, Tuesday, Au- ust 20; Thursday, August 22, and Satur- day, August 24, ‘and that If other ra are ‘required they shall be sailed on similar ays the following week. It is further set forth In the answer, it is rumored. that no races shall be sailed after Tuesday, August 27, unless weather o0 itlons make them imperative. As to the third modification, the meas- urement of the yachts in the Brooklyn Navy yard, the 'committee has advised that the New York Yacht club has no con. trol over that government property, and hence can have no authority to enter into such an agreement “I had grip three months; could not sleep; pain all over and headacho very bad Dr. Miles' Nervine, Pain Pills and Liver Pills made me well."—Mrs. E.

SENDS BACK THE INDIAN BILL House Refera It ~Lentx A &aln to Conference Provokes Another Scene, WASHINGTON, Feb, 26.—The house was the scene of a sensational incident late this afternoon which threw that body into a violent state of excitement. For an hour the storm raged, ending abruptly when an adjournment was taken, upon motion of Mr. Payne, the floor leader of the ma- Jority. Mr. Lentz, an Obio democrat who has created many sensations duriog his serv ice in the house, stirred the democrats to a fever pitch by rising to a question of privilege and alleging that a speech he bad turned over to the public printer under general leave to print had been withheld from the record and had been turned over to General Grosvenor of Ohio by the speaker. The nature of the speech was not developed during the events that followed, but it was learned that it was an attack upon Senator Hanna and the methods by which he was elected to the senate. Vielation of Privilege. The speaker explained that it had been ropresented to him that the speech vio- lated the privileges of the house and he had directed that it be withheld until he could look over it. Pressure of business had prevented him from doing so, how- ever, and only twenty minutes before, he sald, he had directed that the speech go info the record, believing that if it con- tained anything offensive it could be stricken out of the record by the house later. Intense excitement followed. Several points of order weré made by republicans, but the speaker declined to sidetrack the matter in that way, holding, however, that to proceed @ proposition of some kind must be before the house. Thereupon Mr. Rich- ardson, the democratic leader, offered a resolution that the speaker had no right to withhold speeches. Against this the ques- tion of consideration was raised by Mr. Lacey and by a strict party vote the house decided not to coneider it Condemns Speaker's Action. Amid still greater confusion Mr, Richard- son offered another resolution condemning the speaker's action and directing that the speech be “delivered forthwith to the pub- lic printer.”” Again Mr. Lacey raised the question of consideration, and again, by a strict party vote the house refused (o con- sider it. At this point further proceedings were cut off by an adjournment taken on motion of Mr. Payne, the floor leader of the majority, and again sustained by a strict party yote. The controversy probably will be resumed tomorrow. Earlier in the day a partial conference report on the Indian appropriation bill was agreed to and the hill was sent back to conference. The western members made an ineffectunl effort to accept the senate amendment appropriating $100,000 for ex- periments on the Gila river in Arizona, but they were deteated, 55— The conference report on the naval bill was beaten on account of the item creat- ing assistant chiefs of bureaus in the Navy department and & motion to aceept the sen- ate amendment authorizing the construe tion of three additional submarine: boats were pending when the row above mentioned was precipitated by Mr, Lentz.
