ROOSEVELT SILENCES A DEMONSTRATION Warne Spectators Who Applaud Him that There Must Be Order in Nerles of the enate, WASHINGTON, March 6.—Again today Vice President Roosevelt was (he central figure on the opening proceedings of the renate. When he appeared at his desk to call the senate to order a wave of applause | swept over the thronged galleries He evidently was impatient at the demon stration and sharply tapping his desk with the gavel, warned the spectators that repe- titlon of the applause would result In an order to clear the galleries. After a brief debate the amendment to the rules of the senate placing a limit on the duration of debate, oftered yesterday Mr. Platt of Conpecticut was referred to the commlittee on rules. The debate brought forth the fact that no intention exists with tha proponent of the amend- ment to urge ity discussion at the present extraordinary session. The chaplaln in his invocation referred with deep pathos to the sorrow which ha fallen upon the junior senator from Ala- bama (Mr. Pettus) and his wife in the death of thelr only son. Intt Calle Up Amen s Mr. Platt of Connecticut {hen called up the amendment to the rules of which he gave notice yesterday, relating to the lim- itation of debate After the journal was read Mr. Teller of Colorado inquired of Mr. Platt whether he expected to secure actlon upon the amend- ment at the present extraordinary session Mr: Platt replied that be did not desire to discuss the proposed amendment at the present time. He wished to have the amendment referred to the committee on rules, but he doubted very much whether the commitieo on rules could consider it 80 fully as to enable the semate to take action upon it at this session. He had he sald, that the semate ought (o change its rules wnd he had thought that the proper time to introduce his proposi- tlon was at the beginning of a new session of congress. Ho added that he would be glad to have action upon the amendment at this se sion, but he did wot suppose it could be bad. He desired that the amendment be referred to tho committee on rules, in order that the committee might have opportunity to consider it during the recess “I hope,” said he in conclusion, “that some falr amendment to the rules may be devised by which there can be a reasonable (not an unreasonable) limit placed on de- bate, es to Committee on Rules. Mr. Teller sald he had no wish to enter objection to the reference of the amend- ment to the committee on rules. That was the proper place for it. He inquired, how ever, whether there was any expectation on the part of the majority to do anything more during the presont session tham executive business. Pending an answer to that ques- tion, Vice President Rookevelt announced in a low but distiuct tone that the pro- pored amendment would be referred in the abeence of objection to the committee on rules, Responding to the inquiry of Mr. Teller, Mr. Hale of Mame, disclaiming any at- tempt to speaksfor anybody but himself, sald the extradordinary session had been called for the transaction of purely execu- tive business. - Ho did not suppose the seuate would be kept in sesslon many days or be called upon to consider any other subjects than purely executive business Mr. Teller submitted some brief com- ments upon the transaction of business at extraordinary sessions of the genate, hold- ing that the body had a perfect right, in accordance with precedents, to do amy- thing it could do in transaction of business. Mr. Platt, speaking for himself alone, ex- pressed the opinion that it would not be wise to enter upon the transaction of gen- eral legislative business at this extraordi- nary session. It would not be the part of wisdom to attend to more than executive business Morgan Thunders War, Mr. Morgan, who yesterday offered a resolution declaring the abrogration of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty hetween the United States and Great Britain, addressed the senate for ucarly two hours in opposition. declared that it Great Britain should endeavor 1o enforce the terms of the treaty the effort would result in a war in which the great empire, which had controlled for scores of years the commerce of the world, would be swept from power and her king would be left with only sovereignty over his own fsland. Without concluding his speech, Mr. Mor- gan yielded the floor and at 2:45, on motion of Mr. Warren of Wyoming, the senate went into executive seesion, adjourning at o'clock, T0 SUCCEED MEIKLEJOHN (Continued from First Page.) uearly all the members of the house whose districts were expected (o be benefited by the river and harbor bill.

His immense business and large fortune came to him only through the hard est kind of work and the strictest applica tion of his upatural abllities to the ac- omplishment of his plans. Krom a poor emigrant without a dollar in his pocket he becams not only a prosperous business man, but an influential factor in the up- bullding of the community in which he lived Mr. Metz was born at Hessel-Cassel, Ger- many, in 18 and was educated to the profession of forester in his native city. Not taking kindly to his avocation he re- solved to scek his fortune in a new business and in a new country, and when he was but 19 years of age he set out for America in a sailing vessel After helng tossed about by the Atlantic waves for sixty-five days be landed at New Orleans with noth- g but @ counterfeit dollar in his pocket and without knowing just where or how to turn for a livellhodd. He spent but a few months in the Crescent City, during which he managed to live by taking odd Jobs, and then went to St. Louls, where he secured a position as clerk In a dry goods store at a salary of $§ a month, In 187 he came to Nebraska and en- gaged in (he mercantile business at Belle- vie with Peter Bartels. remaining there until 1862, Mr. Bartels had gone to Den- ver, Colo., and sent word back to his part. ner that riches were in prospect there. Mr. Metz hurriedly packed his belongiugs into A two-horse wagon and with his own family and that of Mr. Bartels started overland for Denver. After spending two years in Colo- rado and not having realized his dreams of the wealth to be picked up there, Mr Metz docided to return to Nebraska. He had been thrifty, I not thriving, and when he arrived in Omaha early in 1864 he had suffcient means to purchase a half interest in a one-horse brewery. In later years Mr. Metz always reforred to his first Omaha venture as a one-horse brewery for the very good reason that it was operated with one-horse power at the time it was started. His brother Philip was his partner in the early days of the business and it was thelr custom to deliver their product to local dealers in a wheelbarrow. When an order would be received at the brewery the goods would be lifted onto the barrow and one of the proprietors would then wheel it to the customer without any seem- ing loss of dignity. It was by such devotion as this to the | detafls of his business that Frederick Metz succeeded in gradually building up ome of the largest brewing concerns west of the Missouri river. The firm name for many years was Metz & Bro, then Metz Bros. and & few years ago the business passed to the present corporation, known as the Metz Bros. Brewing company and com- posed of Mr. Metz and his four sons. Al- though the father was the president of the corporation, he has not taken an active | part in the business for twelve years Although Mr. Metz never sought political preferment, he was sent to the state senate | from Douglas county in 1871 and again in 1885, In 1896 he was elected presidential cloctor on the Bryan ticket and was selected by his collengues to carry the vote of the state (o Washington Mr. Metz was always foremost in public | movements and devoted much of his time | and money to furthering the interests of ‘“n‘,n]m. His vame could always be found among subscribers to funds for carrylng out public undertakings and he gave liberally to charities of all kinds He was one of the organizers of the Omaha Turners' soclety and for years took | most active part in its work. He also belonged to many other state and local organizations The last years of Mr passed in comfortable the pleasures afforded by occasional trips | to his old home In Germany. At the time he was stricken with his last illness he was taking an active part in the organiza- tlon of the Old Settlers' Association of Omaha Mr. Metz was married in 1856 to Louisa Beate Gesser in St. Louls.

It is the one per lect strengthening loxa- ti=e, cleausing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation per- manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and sub- stance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weekenin, or irritating them, make it the idea lazative.
