LEGISLATORS OF UTAH ARE DEEPLY OFFENDED Adopt Resolutions Censuring a News- paper for Comparing Them to Jackrabbits. SALT LAKE, Jan. 26 —The lower house | of the Utah Legislature to-day made for- mal objection to its members being com- pared to jeckrabbits. The objection was in the form of a set of resolutions, se- verely censuring the Salt Lake Telegram, which on Saturday published an article stating that the members from San Pege County “could change places with jack- rabbits and the Legisiature would be strengthened by the presence of thelr substitutes.”” On account of the preva- ! lence of smallpox in the State, agitation in favor of a compulsory vaccination law has been very strong, and the Represent- | atives from S8an Pete County have vigor- | ously opposed this movement. The reso- lutions, which were passed after a lively | debate, declare that the remarks ‘“cast serious reflections upon the intelligence and fitness for the work of the Legisla- ture” of the membe: Giant Tree Crushes His Leg.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—Senator Mor- gan, chairman of the Interoceanic Canal Committee, to-day offered in the Senate a resolution questioning the credentials of Tomas Herran, Charge d'Affaires of Colombia, who recently signed with Sec- retary Hay the isthmian canal treaty. Aldrich made the fjoint that the subject must be considered in executive sesston “nd the Senate went into executive ses- sion on motion of Hale. The point which Senator Morgan made was that the validity of the Government Which accredited Herran to the United States was doubtful and that it should be inquired into by the United States. As soon as the doors were closed Morgan took the floor and discussed the subject at some length. He said there had not been an election in Colombia since 1898 and that it was questionable whether the present acting Government had authority to send a representative to the United States. Mecrgan's resolution, after considerable discussion, was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. e Military Academy Bill Passed. WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—The House to- day made a new record in the matter of appropriation bills. The Military Acad- emy bill was passed without a single word of debate. The Indian bill, which fol- lowed, was not completed to-day, as Bur- ton (R.) of Ohlo made a long speech on it in general criticism of the policy of the Government toward thedindians. A res- olution was adopted calling upon the Postmaster General for the “correspond- ence in the Indlanaola, Miss., postoffice case. il 0t 5 Tt S Quay Blocks Senate’s Routine.
