BRAVE GIRL ROUTS BOLD ROBBER A DISPLAY OF TWO REVOLVERS BY DENVER, Jan. 18.—Two revolvers in the hands of an 18-year-old girl put to flight a robber who entered Max Dawedoff's jewelry store, 1745 Larimer street, last night. The jéweler's daughter, Laura, had been warned to lgok out for suspi- SRS and was gone only a few minutes when a well-dressed young man entered and walked toward the safes at the rear. “I asked him what he wanted,” said Miss Dawedoff to-night when she reported the case to the police, “and he said he was after money, and wanted it quickly. Wil- not, but that didn’t make any difference, for I never fired a revolver in my life. I pointed both revolvers at the man and told him would shoot him and he ran away. to get out of the store or I & wouldn’t have shot him at all, for I was awfully scared.” rule they were rejected without division. | cious persons.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—The House spent the entire day to-day on the bill to | refer to the Court of Claims the claim of | the Willlam Cramp & Sons Shipbuilding | Company of Philadelphia for alleged dam- | ages due to the delay of the Governmen: {in" furnishing armor plate and material for the battleships Massachusetts and In- diana and the cruisers New York and | Columbia. The bill has been conspicuous | at every session of Congress for several years. It met with the strenuous and de- termined opposition of a portion of the minority under the leadership of McDer- mott of New Jersey and Robb of Missourl., A filibuster was finally begun, but its ad- Vocates at length succeeded in having the previous question ordered on the bill.

NSNS NO COMPENSATION ON OIL TANK VESSELS | Amendment to the Ship Subsidy Bill Aimed at the Standard 0il Company. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—One of the amendments to the ship subsidy bill agreed to to-day by Senators Aldrich, Al- lison, McMillan and Spooner and accepted by Senators ve and Hanna is aimed at the Standard Oil Company. It provides that no compensation should be allowed to ofl tank vessels. Other amendments agreed to provide that the number of forelgn vessels to be admitted to American registry, provided a like tonnage is built in ‘the United States, is limited to four vessels to each fArm for each class; that s, four vessels already built and four vessels for which contracts have e and not com- pleted. This will reduce foreign tonnage that may be admitted to American. reg- istry from about 350,000 tons to 200,000 tons, JURY'S VERDICT AGAINST LANDIS Finds Wife- Slayer Guilly of Second - Degree Murder. —_— Epecial Dispatch to The Call. AUBURN, Jan. 18.—The jury in the case of Russell Landis, charged with the mur der of his wife, Lizzie Landis, at Rocklin on the night of October 3 last, brought in a verdict of murder in the second de- gree this afternoon after having been out more than four hours. ‘Landis not only shot and instantly killed his wife but immediately repaired to the house of Constable Clydesdale and emptied the contents of a shotgun into the Constable as he lay in bed reading. Landis pleaded insanity, claiming that the intimacy of his wife with Clydesdale had so wrought upon his mind as to produce temporary insanity, and for that reason he was not responsible for his action, | The case was fought with the greatest rtinacity by the prosecution and the de- ense. More than eighty witnesses were subpenaed. Drs. Hatch and Hoisholt, two experts upon insanity, were in attendance upon the trial and testified in behalf of the prosecution. The verdict is belleved to have been a compromise, as it is understood that the jury stood eight for murder in the first degree to four for acquittal on the first ballot. Sentence will be pronounced by Judge Prewett on Monday, February 11. ACCUSED OF FRAUD. Dr. Byington of Saita Rosa Defend- ant in a Suit. SANTA ROSA, Jan. 18.—A suit embody- ing sensational charges against Dr. F. S. Byingtcn, head of the Jenner Sanitar- jum, was filed here to-dey. The plaintiffs are Florence Duncan, Claude H. Boyce and Mrs. Margaret Boyce, the latter be- ing the widow of the late Dr. J. F. Boyce, and for many years owner of the prop- erty now occupied by the sanitarium. The complainants allege that through misrep- WAITER ACCUSES ACTOR OF THEFT Wallacs Shaw and His Wife Figure in an Annoying Incident. Spectal Dispatch to The Call LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18.—The reception accorded Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Shaw of the Frawley company upon the occasion of their first 'meal in this city is one that they will long remember. It was not of the bouquet throwing, glad hand kind, ‘but one which landed them in the police station and forced them to undergo the ignominy of being searched by the police. Mr. and Mrs. Shaw arrived in Los Ange- les this morning with other members of the Frawley company. Walking down Spring street they noticed a bakery and lunchroom. The windows looked so invitin that the couple, dusty and travel stained, went in to get their matin meal. They ave their order and ate what was served them, but when they started to go out of the restaurant they got no further than the cashier's desk. A waiter, ac- cording to one of the people at the res- taurant, charged the couple with stealing silverware. '( A policeman was called in, even though both Mr. and Mrs. Shaw protested their innocence. The policeman did not have a warrant and had not seen the act com- mitted which was charged against the couple, and, of course, he could not search them. They were asked to accom- pany him to the police station, which they did. = At the station a policeman searched Mr. Shaw, while the matron performed a like service for Mrs. Shaw. Needless to say no silverware or plated ware was found upon their persons. Both Mr. and Mrs. Shaw are much cha- grined at having had'to .march through the principal streets to the police station. Though well known in this city through their prominence upon the stage, they feel that now they are known to hundreds of persons in a light far different from tha* in which they are accustomed to shine. resentations, Dr. Byington induced Mrs. Boyce to s papers conveying the own- ership of the property to him without compensation.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—The Republi- can Senators decided to-day not to set a | | day, at least for the present. for taking | up the Nicaragua canal bill. The decision was reached after an hour and a haif | spent in caucus and was uranimous. The caucus was called largely because of Sen- ator Morgan’'s impor:unities in behalf of the bill and an effort was made to effect a satisfactory solution of the problem. | | There was a general exchange of views | and many speeches weie made, but after |aJl had been sald the Senators concluded | that so long as Great Brital attitude {toward the dmeanis to the H wo | | Pauncefote tr is_undefined it | | not be wise or expedient to axitate the question of the construction of the prc- | posed canal. Senator Allison, cha:rman of the cau- | cus, was authorized to make this stale- | ment to Senator Morgan and oiher friends ‘ol the canal bill and zo the public in gen |eral. In giving it out he lald stress upon | the fact this conclusion was “for given to the ship subsidy bill ar appropriation bills was not discussed and | that “the matter is in the hands of the | Senate.” | The decision of the caucus was em- | bodied in a resolution pres I by Sena- |tor Lodge, who stated the concla- | sion"as thus forth was the result of | the best deliberations of the Committes {on Order of Busin He expressed his |own firm conviction that at least for the | present it would be out of place to press | the ‘canal question while the treaty is | still a subject of negotiations and Eng- ympletely defined. rm ¢ fon to abeyance for land's atiitude is not Notwithstanding the leave the ca tice that in case the houl | tion to take up the canal bill | not be bound by the resolution adopted but would vote for a motion to consider. | In this expression of independence Se: | tor Platt of New York was the leader. | He said he considered the proposed canal of prime importance and would not | frain from voting to e it up whenever a motion to that effect was made. Sena tors Simon, Foster and Bard followed | with similar declaratios No decision S d upon other questions because no formal action was considered necessarv. There was, how- ever, considerable discussion of other questions. Among these were the ship subsidy bill, the war revenue reduction bill, the confirmation of Mr. Harlan as Attorney General of Porto Ric fication of the treaty with Sp acquisition of some «f the Islands. not included in the o 2 treaty and the approp-iation biils. | + Senator Hanna expressed his desire to | have the ship subsidy bill pa ed upoa during the present session and | with the army bill out of the way ne should ask that e decision arrived at | |early in the session to press the ship subsidy would be adhered to. Hanna was reminded of the necessity of giving first attention to the appropriation bills and he said that he fully understood that and he only meant to a that the the | subsidy bill should receive attention when the appropriation bills were not up for fon. considera There w: neral assent to this propo- sition, but it was suggested that there were ' other subjects w d passed upon which it was believed would require a great deal time. Senator Aldrich ex- | plained in this connection the necessity of getting the war revenue reduction biil through during the ses: that he hoped to be abl¢ | the Committee ,on Finance during the |early part of next week. Aldrich also sald that he hoped to secure a unanimous agreement from the committee, and that | if successful he hoped the Senate would | not require a great deal of time. To get the bill through promptly it was neces- sary there should be no effort to amend | |1t by putting on tariff amendments. To attempt anything in that line would, he sald open-up the entire tariff question, |and the only safe course was to leave the b.l as it new was, an internal reve- nue measure only. There was general as- sent to this propesition, and assurances were given that the caucus would sustain him in that position. Senator Foraker stated that he would | again seek to get up the Harlan nomina- | tion at the first opportunity, and he asked that Republican Senators remain in suf- ficlent numbers to guarantee a quorum because of Senator Pettigrew’s notice that he should require a.roll call on the vote to confirm. The importance of get- ting the Spanish treaty through was pre- sented by Senator Lodge, who sald that the ratification of the treaty was neces- sary to clean up our dealings with Spain. Senator Proctor also asked time for con- sideration of the oleomargarine bill. Sen- ator Hale replied to this request that the bill had not yet been reported from Sen- ator Proctor's committee. To this the | Vermont Senator replied the committee | would be prepared to report next week.

In his ¢omplaint Nevills swears that with his wife he peaceably entered Baker's office to pay taxes and was placed under arrest without cause and imprisoned “in a dirty room for an hour.” Marshal Baker asserts that Nevills grew violently angry over a difference as to the amount of taxes to be pald and shook his fist in the Marshal's face, and that his arrest was for cause. ‘WARNER'S SArE 5 %fl-fi-:—h‘ spring I conf e e to mend o L i e bt i Write Warner’'s Safe Cure Co., Rochester, N.
